All new forum and new features! The main headline features that we’ve pushed are:
- Added support for AudioUnit v3 on OS X and iOS
- Simplified the JUCE module format. Removed the json module definition files, and made
it easier to manually add modules to projects. The format is fully described in the
document juce/modules/JUCE Module Format.txt - iOS project support: added custom resource folders, custom xcassets, app capabilities,
and screen orientation settings. - Deleted the Introjucer… But don’t panic! All of its functionality is now supplied by a
more open-source version of the Projucer. By refactoring the closed-source LLVM compilation
code into a DLL, we’ve been able to unify the Introjucer and Projucer into a single
open-source project. This will allow everyone to compile the Projucer’s IDE themselves, and
having just one app instead of two will make things a lot less confusing!
Apologies for the false start with the new forum last night - seems that something was broken with the migration to Discourse, and the guys at Discourse.com had to do it again overnight… A few of you (and us!) had posted things that got lost in this process, so please post again if you need to.
One thing that a couple of people griped about was the fact that we’ve had to squash all the changes for 4.2 into a single commit. Yes, obviously that’s not great, and isn’t our policy, and isn’t something we’ve ever done before, and we won’t be doing it again. This was just a special case because behind the scenes we had to deal with some nasty GIT contortions involving hidden projucer branches, and for various reasons couldn’t do what we needed in a way that broke it down into a better list of commits.
