FOX 1.6.25 (STABLE) and FOX 1.7.9 (DEV) Released!

New for FOX 1.7.9:

* Renamed FXString::HEX array to FXString::value2Digit; added FXString::digit2Value array.
Removed FXString::hex (never used anywhere).

* Minor fix in Adie.stx file for sprintf-style format patterns.

* Fixed interpretation of DECOR_SHRINKABLE and DECOR_STRETCHABLE; when neither is specified,
programmatically specified size is kept. If DECOR_STRETCHABLE is specified, size is
constrained to be at least the default size. If DECOR_SHRINKABLE is specified, size is
constrained to be at most the default size; finally, if DECOR_RESIZE (i.e. both
DECOR_SHRINKABLE and DECOR_STRETCHABLE are set), then size is not constrained and
window can be manipulated arbitrarily.

* Renamed FXURL::hostname() to FXSystem::getHostName(), which is more appropriate.

* More major updates in FXText.

* Lots of new API's in FXTextField:

o API's added to incrementally modify text, rather than just replace all of it.
o Cursor and anchor properly updated when text is changed.
o API added to obtain only selected text.
o Overstrike mode now works much better for UTF-8.
o Cursor changes shape when in overstrike mode.
o All manipulations done using a single message now.
o API's added to manipulate clipboard and primary selection.
o When setting new text, no longer immediately scrolls to make end of text visible
(this caused ugliness inside FXComboBox when FXComboBox is too small to show all text).

* Changed behaviour of FXText: pasting from clipboard or primary selection now observe properly
the overstrike mode-flag. When multi-line text is pasted, only text from cursor position
till end of line is overstruck; the rest is just inserted.

* Added API to FXText to obtain selected text.

* Added some API's to FXGLShape, and other FXGLObject's.

* Hidden Windows-only GetClass() API now returns wide characters if FOX is compiled with
-DUNICODE. Thus, window-titles now show properly in unicode.

* Secret convenience API's added: fxopen(), fxreopen(). These do what you expect, except
they encode the filename to wide-characters on Windows. Note that these API's are not
official and will be removed at some point in the future.

* Fixed _NET_WM_PING protocol issue (change in protocol).

Fixes in FOX 1.6.25:

* Fixed compile problem with FXThread for build on MacOS-X.

* Fixed _NET_WM_PING protocol issue (change in protocol).

Greetings,

Jeroen

hi Jeroen,

I tried compiling FoxToolkit on my MacOSX setup and compilation
stopped in linking phase with ld indicating failure because
it couldn't find _MPCreateSemaphore and 3 more Semaphore functions.

As i saw all these functions are referenced only in FXThread.cpp,
but it seems to me that the proper library is missing for linking.

I have MacOSX 10.4.1 and XCode tools 2.4.1 installed.

greetings
giannis
