What's New in Cappuccino 0.9.5 (RC3)

Release date: 2011-11-11

Foundation and Core

  • Local param shadowing now emits a warning instead of an error. This is temporary awaiting a proper fix of param shadowing in the preprocessor.
  • CPScanner fixes.
  • Don't log backtraces repeatedly when using objj_backtrace_decorator.
  • CPString -substringWithRange: and -rangeOfString:options:range now throws CPRangeException for out of bounds ranges.
  • Add -forwardingTargetForSelector: support.
  • Crude but functional infinite recursion checker, optional at compile time.
  • New: CPNumberFormatter with CPNumberFormatterDecimalStyle support.
  • New: support null values in CPDictionary's +dictionaryWithJSObject:recursively: (issue #1299).
  • New: objjc --help.
  • New: objjc option to compile to stdout, with or without @STATIC tags, suitable for JavaScript linters.
  • Improved performance of [CPString copy].

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed: CPURL -isEqual: for URLs with redundant slashes.
  • Fixed: CPDate timezone calculation in initWithString:.
  • Fixed #1065: CPString -rangeOfString: backwards search did not work.
  • Fixed: CPString -rangeOfString: anchored backwards search did not work.
  • Fixed: searching a string for @"" with CPString -rangeOfString: returned results other than CPNotFound.
  • Fixed: CPString -rangeOfString:options:range returned locations relative to the passed-in range instead of the full string.
  • Fixed: CPMutableSet -addObject: should raise with nil or undefined.
  • Fixed: very large numbers written to 280north1 plist files would be read back as very small numbers. This would among other things break nib2cib where certain controls would take on infinitesimal sizes.
  • Fixed #1289: infinite recursion when coercing an object without a -description method into a string.
  • Fixed #469: infinite recursion when an unimplemented message was sent to an object with no superclass.
  • Fixed with CPDecimal: decimal numbers below 1.0 would compare incorrectly with 0.0.
  • Fixed #1380, #1383: avoid "popen error (pipe): Too many open files" error when building Cappuccino.
  • Fixed #1384: avoid user defaults QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR crash.

AppKit

  • New: CPButton continuous mode.
  • Improved: CPSound error handling and better Cocoa compliance.
  • Improved: table view keyboard row selection.
  • New: CPProgressIndicator is now coding compliant.
  • New: keyboard navigation in menus.
  • New: mouse wheel support in menus.
  • New: automatic or explicit scroll mode selection for web views.
  • New: support for pattern fills in CGContext (CGContextSetFillColor with a pattern color).
  • Clean up JavaScript (missing semicolons, don't use commas as statement separators.)
  • CPWebView -isLoading method.
  • Support for web views with transparent or coloured backgrounds.
  • CPObjectController automaticallyPreparesContent support.
  • Added support for the CPNullPlaceholderBindingOption for bound text fields.
  • New: text field support for CPContinuouslyUpdatesValueBindingOption.
  • New: bindings support for inline table view cell editing.
  • Support for CPOutlineView outlineViewDeleteKeyPressed: delegate method.
  • CPEvents sent during mouseDragged: now have deltaX and deltaY appropriately set (issues #1210, #1211).
  • New: coding support for CPIndexPath.
  • CPMenu item validation.
  • New: collectionView:menuForItemAtIndex: delegate method support.
  • New: CPDictionary -keysSortedByValueUsingSelector: which, just as it sounds, returns the keys of the dictionary sorted using a given selector.
  • Key equivalent display in menus for special characters such as escape, tab, arrow keys and many others.
  • New: tooltip support for any view with the standard yellow box look (issue #1264).
  • Remove table view corner view if there is no header view.
  • Added CPMenu -removeAll method (issue #1260).
  • New: CPPredicateEditor allows a search or filter predicate to be constructed visually by the user.
  • Optimise array controller addObject: by eliminating entirely pointless rearrange when added objects did not pass the filter. Also avoid double rearrange if clearsFilterPredicateOnInsertion.
  • Draw table view gridlines precisely inside the right side of cells so that grid line positioning and spacing matches Cocoa.
  • New: CPUserDefaultsController which can be used to easily bind controls to user default keys, in Interface Builder or elsewhere.
  • Optimise CPArrayController insertObject:atArrangedObjectIndex:.
  • Minor array controller optimisation: don't send a filterPredicate change notification if clearsFilterPredicateOnInsertion is YES but filterPredicate is already nil when insertObject:atArrangedObjectIndex: is called.
  • CPArrayController handlesContentAsCompoundValue support for contentArray binding.
  • Left and right arrow keys can now be used to expand and collapse items in CPOutlineView.
  • New: CPLevelIndicator shows a meter with discrete levels from empty to full.
  • CPFormatter support for CPControl.
  • New scroll view scrollViewWillScroll: and scrollViewDidScroll: delegate methods, inspired by UIScrollViewDelegate (issue #1177).
  • Multiple improvements to CPMenu opening, closing and handling of submenus.
  • Coding support for CPCharacterSet when the set is of the characterSetWithCharactersInString kind.
  • CPCharacterSet -isEqual: support when the set is of the characterSetWithCharactersInString kind.
  • Inverted CPCharacterSet +characterSetWithCharactersInString now archive properly.
  • New: coding support for CPTokenField.
  • CPArray range checking (issue #1334).
  • CPBoxes created with +boxEnclosingView: now take on the autoresizing mask of the passed view (issue #1335).
  • Improved table view redrawing performance when usesAlternatingBackgroundColors is YES (issue #1341).
  • Allow CPAlert subclasses to use +alertWithMessageText:... et al (issue #1333).
  • Improved performance of valueForKeyPath: (issue #1344).
  • [CPSound play] now plays the sound once it has been loaded if it hasn't yet (issue #1345).
  • Raise CPRangeException if CPString substringToIndex: is out of bounds.
  • New: support nested willChange<Key> and didChange<Key> calls. When multiple calls are nested, only the first willChange... and the last didChange... will notify observers, avoiding duplicate notifications for the same change. This can massively improve performance since observations sometimes lead to cascading updates (issue #1343).
  • Send didChange in reverse order of willChange in CPObjectController setContent:.
  • Implemented support for the CPTokenField tokenField:shouldAddObjects:atIndex: delegate method (issue #1360).
  • CPStepper button sizes can now be themed.
  • New: CPColorWithImages() convenience function to quickly create a CPColor from single, 3-part or 9-part images (issue #1274).
  • Enhanced -description method of CPImage and CPColor to show the exact content, especially for pattern colors (issue #1274).
  • New: allow binding a table column value to an array controller reached through a key path.
  • Improved split view performance: eliminate excessive splitViewDidResizeSubviews: messages.
  • New: support for collapsing views towards the right in split views.
  • New: split view auto save support.
  • New: 'overlay' style scrollbars which fade out when not in use. Old style scrollbars are also supported and automatically enabled if the browser does not use overlay style scrollbars (e.g. OS X Lion with a touch enabled input device uses overlay style scrollbars, but a Windows XP machine with a mousewheel would not.)
  • New: CPWindow setMovable: support which specifies whether a window can be dragged (issue #1358).
  • New: CPPopover control to create small "pop up" widgets attached to other controls, similar to the Downloads pop-over in Safari 5 (issue #1316).
  • Allow almost anything as a key equivalent unless a text field is the first responder. E.g. pressing "a" with no modifiers can now trigger a button.

  • Fixed: split view did not reposition subviews or remove divider when a subview was removed.
  • Fixed: root layer transform inadvertantly changed when redisplayed.
  • Fixed: if unarchiver:didDecodeObject: returned nil, the original object was still replaced (with nil) instead of being kept.
  • Fixed #864: corner view did not always draw the line above the left edge of the scroll view.
  • Fixed: loading an empty string into a web view would make it entirely white regardless of the background colour specified.

  • Fixed: the content view of a decoded CPBox would have the wrong autoresizing mask.
  • Fixed: unhandled keyboard events of a window did not travel past the window.
  • Fixed: JS objects 'randomly' failed to unarchive due to a caching problem. One visible symptom was that CPTextField's custom inset would decode fine, but a subclass of a CPTextField would fail to decode the inset.
  • Fixed: table headers didn't scroll with the rest of the table during drag and drop.
  • Fixed: CGGradientCreateWithColorComponents assumed there'd only be two colors in each gradient.

  • Fixed: under some circumstances a CPMenu could return a separator as the highligted item.
  • Fixed: pressing the up arrow key in a table view would cause a crash if the previous selection was non continuous.

  • Fixed #1285: CPPredicate would crash if a beginsWith or endsWith comparison was made where the right hand string was longer than the left hand string.
  • Fixed #1305: max toolbar item width was constrained to the width of the label.

  • Fixed: CPArrayController setSelectionIndexes: sometimes modified its input.
  • Fixed: several CPArrayController methods returned undefined instead of booleans.
  • Fixed: CPWindow did not return NO to acceptsFirstResponder messages.
  • Fixed: multiple errors with key view loops (window's content view not included at the start of the loop, selectNextKeyView:, selectPreviousKeyView:, selectKeyViewFollowingView: and selectKeyViewPrecedingView: not acting like in Cocoa).
  • Fixed: mutableArrayValueForKey: KVO proxy objects did not use plural selectors (e.g. remove<Key>AtIndexes:, replace<Key>AtIndexes:) when implemented by the proxied object.
  • Fixed: platform window titles could not be changed once the window had been opened.
  • Fixed with CPStepper setFrame: method modified its input.
