| Hello everyone!
Finally, we are glad to announce that the new release of JAGUAR is ready!!
In addition to the documentation we have promised, this new release has so
many improvements that we have decided to call it beta 2, instead of beta 1
as it was announced at first. We have added many features that we consider
important for any Clarion/JAGUAR developer, as you can see in the following
list:
- Product documentation
- Reporting features
- Charting features
- Page-loaded browses
- Multi-app projects support
- JDBC native drivers support
- Automatic generation of JavaDoc documents
- New control template to include external Java components
- Improved positioning and sizing of windows controls
- MDI schema support
- New JAGUAR compiler
- Automatic generation of JAR files
- Automatic generation of distribution folder (for easier application
deployment)
- Support for date fields in both DATE and STRING + GROUP formats
- DCT initial values support
- DCT validation checks support
- New options to export JAGUAR projects to 3rd party IDEs (Eclipse &
CodeGuide)
- New compiler options
- New embed points
- New Clarion statements available
- New example applications
- Improved JAGUAR installer
This is just a brief list of JAGUAR new features. In addition to this list,
many minor improvements and fixes to bugs reported by JAGUAR users were
added.
We have decided to include since this release the source files of both JBCL
and JCSL libraries as part of the JAGUAR product!! These include all the
Java classes we have develop to shorten the JAVA learning curve for Clarion
developers, making available many of the Clarion structures (FILEs, QUEUEs,
etc.) and built-in procedures (ADD, PUT, DELETE, MESSAGE, etc.) to be used
in any JAGUAR application.
We have also decided to extend the Early Release offer for ten days. That
means that you will be able to order JAGUAR by US$ 399 until October 14th.
Then the price will raise up to US$ 499 during the beta stage as it was
announced at first.
We have already sent an email to all JAGUAR users with updated registration
information and further instructions for downloading this release.

Best regards,
SoftMasters Development Team
