Some great new features

Objo
1

Just pushed out release 26.5.7. In addition to lots of bug fixes I’d like to call out three significant features:

  1. MySQL and PostgreSQL support. Together with existing SQLite support, Objo is now very competitive with Xojo’s DB offerings.
  2. A new ContainerControl has been added.
  3. Localisation support.

Hello Gerry,

Thank you gain for Objo Studio which is a great project;

Please can you help me with something simple? I try to center align a text in a label but do not find any alignment options.

Can you tell me if this is possible in Objo and how to do it?

Thank you very much for your help which is appreciated.

wrapped c# functionality makes much more functionality XoJo ever had.

@rgb beat me to the docs link. Should find what you need there.

Thank you all for replying. I was using a textlabel and could not find an alignment option. After installing the latest version, I found the option in the properties panel.

I appreciate all your input.

He is running his own custom VM executing his own bytecode language though.

It amuses me that a garbage-collected runtime (.NET) is running a reference-counted VM and custom cycle checker. It’s one of those ironies that make life fun.

Of course this doesn’t mean he can’t delegate to the .NET runtime as needed and appropriate.

Yeah that’s interesting for sure. He found a good solution
