Re: Apple Agrees with 4D

[Douglas Cryer]

Peter,

So are 4D going to provide us with the tools to populate this new window or is 
some clever developer going to provide us with a plug-in?

I may have miss-understood the whole thing but it seems that unless we have 
some access to the touch bar then in actual fact 4D will not agree with Apple ☺

This is the tricky bit. Big changes would be required both on the UI and
backend to match 4D Client over WAN.

Hybrid is the way to go. If possible get 4D single user app to talk to
server via JSON and then use the power of desktop app optionally data
should stay in cloud or local...

Sujit,

I believe he is referring to the new MacBook Pro with the touch strip:

http://www.apple.com/apple-events/october-2016/

Announced at the above event.

The main stream media is telling you to develop in the browser. Who is this
idiot (Desktop Application) barking about?

Which article/product or press release are you referring to?

And, hopefully, also the proprietary/native client app, 4D Remote!

(I don’t care what you throw at it or even who the U.S. president is, a web 
browser is a p___-poor client—an insult to its users—for any non-trivial 
application.)

Apple Agrees with 4D !

[Peter Jakobsson]

Desktops are here to stay :-))

In a classic dismissal of industry trends (one that they themselves initiated 
no less) they’ve migrated the screen to the keyboard instead of the keyboard to 
the screen. This is a very smart move IMO and after watching nearly 30 years of 
Apple launches I can’t help thinking it's a bit of a seminal event, especially 
for those of us developers who didn’t jump unhedged onto the mobile-tech 
bandwagon.

I’ve always thought that 4D made the right decision to keep the desktop product 
alive and evolve it. That decision has just had a huge endorsement from Apple 
in that they’ve recognised that power-software is ultimately a tool that starts 
and ends with a steering wheel, however many features may be in play.

I am very pleased about this and I think all 4D people should B2. (Sorry about 
the shorthand - been reading too many twitter feeds of people complaining about 
a touch strip rather than a touch screen. It’s ok, they just haven’t thought it 
through). 

Regards

Peter
