Diego's tour of C9
New features in IDE, CT, RTL, drivers, new classes.
SourceClass - to create classes in the app) template
UserControl template
JSON class to generate JSON arrays and objects
System.String
System.IO
The SQLite driver and the SQL class to execute scripts.
Diego took us on a our of new features including IDE improvements. Prototypes and parameters are now back on the same tab. There is a full spectrum color picker; template-specific search options (look for declarations, etc); search in current document directory; themes; locator improvements
Some of Deigo's favorites:
caching of ABC headers for the solution
Reworked batch building
DCT search - this is pretty cool as it allows you to do boolean searching (AND/OR) through the dictionary, looking for terms in fields, files, keys, relations, any aspect of the dictionary even comments and modifications.
the new QuickView
Diego went through the proper use of the generate and build buttons including the new build solution button.
EE allows circular references; PE does not.
