We've released Dojo 1.1 beta, on the download site. It incorporates a bunch of bug fixes from beta2, and is another step closer to our release...
We're expecting to do a release candidate soon (maybe in a week?) so this is really the time to help us test the beta and see if there are any new bugs not already listed in the bug database, or bugs that we marked as fixed but really aren't.
I've done some work on dijit.Tree since my last blog post. (These changes that went into the 1.1 beta 2 release.) Basically, decided that it was too difficult to force everyone to present a dojo.data model for the tree's data, especially w.r.t how to query the children items (and getting notifications about changes to the children items).
In version 1.1 I've fixed the Tree architecture to be able to handle DnD correctly. I've had to deprecate (not remove) some version 1.0 APIs because they didn't work with DnD, and I've listed them here, along with some general discussion about what it means for a tree to connect to a data store. Hopefully some will find it useful.
Hi everyone, I hope you've all had a good Thanksgiving (if you are in that part of the world).
Now that 1.0.1 is out the door, it's time to look forward to the 1.1 release and beyond. I'd like to do this for all of dojo but I can't boil this ocean, so I'm looking at dijit. I've gone over all the bugs against dijit, and especially the bugs marked for 1.1.
Many months ago I posted a widget wish list request to my blog. The response was overwhelming. I'm sorry I haven't gotten a chance to respond to that thread (until now).
The so-called Tree released with 0.9 was actually a Forest, in the sense that it displayed multiple top level nodes. Consider the example in test_Tree.html where it displays a list of nodes for each continent, and sub nodes for countries:
What I think most people want is a top level node marked "Continents" to contain those children:
I wrote up a tour of all (well, most) of the new features in Dijit 0.9. This should give you a taste of why you want to upgrade:
And speaking of upgrading, we just cut the release!! Alex will send an official announcement but it's here!
Hi all. For those of you that don't know me, I'm in charge of Dijit. We are just wrapping up the Dojo 0.9 release now (btw, download the nightly and start testing). Now's the time to look forward and see what widgets people want for 1.0 and beyond, both in Dijit and DojoX.
There are a number of missing features from 0.4 that need to be added to 1.0, especially table, tree, charting, and maps. We know that everyone wants table, and better tree features, and we'll have something soon.
We're almost finished with the 0.9 bug fixes, ready for final testing! Anyone that can help, much obliged...
There are some editor fixes still going in, in addition to event / memory leak stuff from Scott (see the 0.9 bug list for a full list), but basically things are working. We'll be posting a testing build soon... in the meantime just check the nightly build
We reached the 10000 mark on our checkins today! Don't know if that's good or bad but I guess it's good, and it shows how much good stuff is going into dojo...
