BlackBox 1.7.2 - Release candidate

Post by Robert »

We intend to publish a new stable BlackBox release (version 1.7.2) shortly.

In preparation release candidate rc1 is now available. We encourage interested users to download this, and report any bugs or incompatibilities they find in the near future.
New features will no longer be considered for release 1.7.2.

The major new feature in 1.7.2 is the inclusion of a run-time debugger. There have also been several bug fixes. The complete change log is available from
http://blackboxframework.org/unstable/m ... anges.html.

To download release 1.7.2-rc1 either go to http://blackboxframework.org/index.php? ... page,en-us and select the "latest development version", in either Zip or Setup formats, or fetch it directly from http://blackboxframework.org/unstable/m ... 1.1107.zip.

Enjoy!

@Ivan: can you please describe the issue with the multiLine Field Update?
The coding looks quite tricky, I mean the coding of the old code.
Therefore it is not obvious to me what the fix is all about.
