Should I update my Mergeable Listbox Subclass?

but they dumped all the new event names… ?
go watch the new keynote - temporarily

basically we’re going to end up with 2 listboxes, 2 buttons etc
classic ones with old properties & event names etc
and new api 2.0 ones with new properties & event names etc
geoff says that in the video

it will be interesting to see what names they come up with for these new controls

I missed that! Such a short mention…
I’m glad I didn’t waste my time on a new parallel subclass. :wink:

I guess we’ll just have to wait and see how it’s implemented. Likely means canvas based classes will have to choose one or the other. Sounds good.

Its easy to miss but its coming

I think thats one reason he did the whole “here’s how api 2 helps you” part
Cut & paste is a really primitive way to share code between projects
SVN externals etc dont help anyone who only uses binary or XML
Whatever git has wont help them either

Externals only work for some stuff

I expect this really will be “the next big pain point” for people if it isnt already (I know for some it already is)

That’s an understatement. How I wish you could have external modules that contain classes. Fed up of having to prefix or suffix my external classes.

remember I said “those choices made way back when before VCP was even designed”
that impediment is that old
I expect it would take a new project file format to do because of how things are
