1.0.1.77 - What's new

To get the latest version, run "Check for updates" from the Device Center or download.

New: Added CancellationToken support to async.

Added CancellationToken class. Also added many methods overloads that use this type.

New: Added refresh function to Device center.

You can now scan for new devices from the Device Center.

New: Added copy to clipboard function to Assembly Checker.

If you encounter missing types or members, use this function to copy everything to the clipboard and paste it to an email for support.

New: 'Import res folder' in VisualStudio

The Android SDK requires a folder structure for your resources under a folder called "res". In dot42 you can put your resources anywhere in your project, and the filename contains resource qualifiers. You can now  import a traditional Android "res" folder into your dot42 project and all the conversions are done automatically.

Changed: Activation is started directly from installer.

At the end of the dot42 installation you will be asked to activate your license.

Changed: Removed support for creating/editing emulator images.

All support for creating and editing emulator images has been removed. We expect developers to either run a real device or use a virtual machine instead.

Changed: Replaced device connection wizard with online help.

1.0.1.75 - What's new

To get the latest version, run "Check for updates" from the Device Center or download.

This release does not contain any new features. It fixes several issues found in the 1.0.1.74 release.

Fixed: Async on single CPU systems

The implementation of async may throw an exception or block execution on single CPU systems.

Fixed: Nested interface constants classes could be non-visible

Nested interface constants classes (e.g. ContactsContract.ISyncColumnsConstants) can be nested protected and as such not visible to you as a programmer. Now all such classes are public.

Fixed: Nested try/catch blocks with catch(object) are incorrect

Sometimes the C# compiler generates a try/catch block with a catch(System.Object) handler. If you combine that with a catch(System.Exception) handler, the order of catch handlers becomes invalid.
Now all catch(System.Object) handlers are compiled as catch-all handler, solving the order issue.

Fixed: Some local variables do not appear in Locals window

In the Locals windows of the debugger, some local variables of large methods do not appear as expected. This was related to register spilling.
