[Valentina-studio] [ANN] Version 1.0a45 available

[Jochen Peters]

Hi all,

you can download new Valentina Studio builds - a45 - for Mac and Win.
http://www.valentina-db.de/en/downloads/downvstd.shtml

These are the changes/News:

- Serial number support
You can now register Valentina Studio to get rid of the 10 minutes 
timeout.
Details for registration will follow.

- ODBC support improved. MS-Access datasource work now
Please - everybody with MS-Access databases should test this. Simply
choose "Connect to server" from the file menu. In the drop-down list 
choose "ODBC datasource" - then
enter the name of the datasource into the field "Hostname"
(This not very intuitive way will of course be changed)

- Update Routine for vsPrefsDB (no need to trash it anymore...)
Hopefully all vsPrefsDB's should now automatically updated - no need to 
trash the old one's
any more.

- ListView: List Selection now changes current object correctly
Also some other bug fixes with "+" and "-" buttons.

- Removed some memory leaks

- New Info window added (Property Inspector bounded to single object)
This means that you can open a Info-window for each selected object - 
the content of this window
will NOT change if you select another object. Now you can compare 
properties from several objects by
opening as many info-windows as needed.

- Server Monitor added
This window refreshes itself in a user defined time intervall. it shows 
all databases on a Valentina server - and
all connections to selected databases. You can register/unregister 
databases from this window. It is also possible
to kill existing connections. DON'T KILL vStudio's own connection for 
now!!!!!

- JavaScript Engine "Spidermonkey" included as Plugin
- "Startup.js" script is now executed during startup
This is the start of scripting support. The industry standard 
JavaScript Engine "Spidermonkey" from the mozilla project is
now included as a plugin. As a start 4 Valentina Studio commands are 
available as JavaScript functions - so that you
can play with it. You can find a folder "Scripts" in vStudio's folder 
(on Mac it is located INSIDE the application package. Please
look at the comments in the file "Startup.js" in this folder for more 
information.


Please note: I will be out of office till Sunday. So most likely i will 
not respond immediatly to postings to the list.
