JCL 1.103 Preview available

Date: 2008-09-09 21:40

The JCL team is proud to give a preview of the library that supports CodeGear's new products Delphi 2009 and C++Builder 2009 with native Unicode support (codename was Tiburon).

This preview should not be considered as stable software, it introduces breaking changes to previously released JCL 1.102.

Users who absolutely need a stable version of the library should stay with JCL 1.102.

Users who need a version of the JCL for Delphi 2009 and C++Builder 2009 may use this preview because JCL 1.102 is not compatible with these new products.

Feedback about this preview concerning backward compatibility and Unicode support will highly be appreciated.

This preview supports the following versions of Delphi and C++Builder:

  • RAD Studio 2007 (Delphi 207, C++Builder 2007);
  • BDS 2006 (Delphi 2006, C++Builder 2006 and Delphi.net 2006);
  • Delphi.net 2005;
  • Delphi.net 8 (experts only);
  • C#Builder 1 (experts only);
  • Delphi 7
  • Delphi 6 and C++Builder 6;
  • Delphi 5 and C++Builder 5.

Note that the support of Delphi.net 2007 and Delphi 2005 is broken.

Head changes for this releease are:

  • security update to BZip2 1.0.5;
  • native Unicode support;
  • update to Unicode Character Database 5.1.0;
  • introduction of string streams with automatic conversions;
  • Streams compatible with Delphi.net;
  • container rework (thread safe implementation, new contained types: WideString, Single, Double, Extended..., compatibility with iterators, split to a dedicated package);
  • Installation to multiple local user accounts at the same time;
  • updated detection of CPU features;
  • new functions in JclStrings to expand tab to spaces;
  • added properties to TJclSimpleXml to enumerate elements by name;
  • added archive support (.zip, .rar, .tar, .gz, .bzip, .iso...) based on sevenzip code;
  • support for callout in PCRE;
  • added project-wide settings for the debug expert.
