    5.0:

  • Added GridMarkerPositon constants.

  • The Point and Rect classes as well as their methods and properties have been marked as console safe.
  • All Mach-O segments in the plugin are now compiled with a different compiler to support future roadmap and long term goals for the plugin.

    4.8:

  • Added GridMeasure constant module to support the Einhugur Grid controls.
  • The Grid constant modules are now also compiled into the Linux target to support future REALbasic Linux IDE.

    4.7:

  • * The plugin was altered so it could pass preliminary unit tests for next generation of REALbasic.
  • * Changed the name of the WindowPtr class to WindowPointer to avoid a conflict with a REALbasic reserved Keyword.

  • 4.6:

  • Added the IProgressHandler interface.

    4.5:

  • The Mach-O target was re-linked without flat namespace to enable multiple Mach-O plugins to run in the same project.
  • The plugin now comes with high quality HTML documentation instead of RB Plugin Plunger documentation.

    4.4:

  • Added Grid constants modules to support the Einhugur Grid controls.

    4.3:

  • Added Mach-O compile support. (Feature for REALbasic 5.5.2 and later)

    4.2:

  • Version info not available.

    4.1:

  • Version info not available.

    4.0:

  • Added Linux support.

    3.3:

  • Fixed class offsets to make the TypeLib fully compatible with REALbasic 5.5

  • 2.6.5:

  • Added support for REALbasic 5.1.

    2.6.1:

  • Added a empty default constructor to the Rect class.
  • Added a empty default constructor to the Point class.

    2.6:

  • SetRect was removed
  • Constructur was added new Rect(x1,y1,x2,y2)
  • SetPt was removed
  • Constructor was added new Point(x,y)
  • h property on Point was be changed to x.
  • v property on Point was be changed to y.
  • Added UseMenuTypeClasses method
  • Rect is now 16 bytes instead of 8 (Only 8 usable on MacOS for Toolbox compatibility)
  • Point is now 8 bytes instead of 4 (Only 4 usable on MacOS for Toolbox compatibility)

    2.5.5:

  • Fixed a problem that could sometimes make Carbon REALbasic, crash on launch when running Classic OS.
  • Added lots of info to the built in documentation.

    2.5.4:

  • Fixed Illegal Carbon accessor to rgnBBox
  • rgnSize will now always return 0 on Carbon size Carbon has no concept for this.

    2.5.3:

  • Internal testing version which was only released to few users.

    2.5.2:

  • Version info not available.

    2.5.1:

  • Fixed a problem under OS X 10.1 with Handle.IntPtr (also goes for all classes that inherit from Handle)

    2.5:

  • Added MacOS X support
  • A small segment was moved from QuickDrawLib to increase stability. (This means that TypeLib 2.5 may not be used together with QuickDrawLib older than version 3.5)
  • Added UsesCoreTypeClasses method, which is there to avoid a REALbasic compile bug where REALbasic sometimes forgets to compile plugins segments into built applications. (See the documentation for more detail on usage)

    2.2:

  • Changed the segment order to fool the RB link error bug with Class extensions. (This enables projects that could not compile because of this bug to compile properly)
  • Linked with a newer version of the Carbon headers.

  • 2.1:
