As you can see, this is mainly a bugfix release to 2012.09.9. While developing OpenGL 2.0 branch, if some other bug are introduced with 2012.09.* line, I'll continue to release new bugfix versions.

phongtt · March 2013

Kongoratz! Long time no release :P

nice works

how about the crash on ipad4

atilim · March 2013

@alexzheng I've tested a lot on iPad 4 but I couldn't crash it.

Also with the stack trace you've sent, it crashes on glClear() function. Some of our users have integrated Crittercism and we haven't seen a crash on glClear() yet.

alexzheng · March 2013

did you set retina display to for iphone and ipad?

atilim · March 2013

@alexzheng Yes. Also I've tested (with retina display) with Gideros Player and with some exported applications.

alexzheng · March 2013

That's interesting. I can reproduce the crash with any simple example frequently.

atilim · March 2013

@alexzheng Can you send me your exported application? Maybe it can help.

alexzheng · March 2013

Other Setting

Scale Mode: letterbox
logical dimensions: 640 * 960
oritention: any
FPS:60

alexzheng · March 2013

When I come back home ,I will send you a project.

atilim · March 2013

Ok. thanks.

Woohoo, Android SQLite feature squeakers arise

petec · March 2013

I'm a very happy squeaker

Nascode · March 2013

Happy squeaker reporting sir!

moopf · March 2013

Having SQLite on Android now as well is great and a much better storage fit for the app I'm working on. But (oh there's always a but!) can you guarantee that when Windows Phone 8 support is added (or any other platform) that you'll include sqlite support as soon as the platform is available? Reason I ask is that if you can't then it might not be worth using it if we'd have to write our additional storage routines for those platforms.

I found that something changed in Core.class caused our games crashed

NewSprite = Core.class(Sprite)
 
local initfunc_Sprite= Sprite.new
Sprite.new = function(...)
	local obj = initfunc_Sprite(...)
	obj:init(...)				
	return obj				
end
 
function Sprite:init(id)
	print("init CSprite")
	self._id = id
end
 
 
function NewSprite:init(id)
	print("init NewSprite")
end
 
 
local a = NewSprite.new(1)
local b = Sprite.new(2)
print("a._id", a._id, "b._id", b._id)

For 2012.9.9, result is:

init CSprite
init NewSprite
init CSprite
a._id	1	b._id	2

but 2012.9.10

init NewSprite
init CSprite
a._id	nil	b._id	2

I have to modify NewSprite:init(id)

function NewSprite:init(id)
	Sprite.init(self, id)  -- add this line
	print("init NewSprite")
end

Rickyngk · March 2013

I found a help here, http://www.giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/comment/8017#Comment_8017
By using " the new one" Core.class, no crashes anymore

loucsam · March 2013

I'm confused. Is this a new release or an old release thread? (Given the release date is a few months ago.)

So I went and looked at my version and I have 2012.09.09 yet I only downloaded around a month ago. If it just got released why isn't it called 2013.xx.yy ?

cheers

atilim · March 2013

@Rickyngk Can you override .__new() function instead of .new():

local initfunc_Sprite= Sprite.__new
Sprite.__new = function(...)
	local obj = initfunc_Sprite(...)
	obj:init(...)				
	return obj				
end

Changing the .new() function confuses the class system but fortunately there is a workaround.

atilim · March 2013

@loucsam 2013.xx.yy will have OpenGL 2.0 support.

atilim · March 2013

@moopf You're right. If there an underlying file system, then SQLite can be ported easily.

The problem with Android is that assets are stored in an APK file. Therefore you need to copy your database file to a real file system before using it. Let me do some research on Windows Phone 8's file system to give you an exact answer.

Mells · March 2013

@atilim
thank you for the latest release.
What does the following change for us, what benefits?

Feature: Object class as root of all classes

loucsam · March 2013

@loucsam 2013.xx.yy will have OpenGL 2.0 support.

I am sure this is a wonderful thing, and very appreciative

however I was more wondering why in 2013.03.yy we are getting a release called 2012.09.10. It confused me and I thought I was reading an old thread.

Ok I read another thread, and I assume your naming convention is about separating opengl1.1 release code from opengl2. 2012 = old stuff, 2013 = new exciting stuff

Probably just the source repository branch names? And it started back in 2012.09.

ar2rsawseen · March 2013

@Mells
you, for example, can add a method (or change it some how differently) to Object class, and this method (or other change) will appear in any class that was created used Core.class function (so basically in any class)

alexzheng · March 2013

Can we have a full example project that can be used for both iOS and android platform to start from?

tkhnoman · March 2013

Look at atilim's avatar. It's still Christmas, so it still 2012 guys.

)

And yeah, looking forward to the OpenGL 2.0
I totally would love that one.

Nascode · March 2013

@tkhnoman

) oh i see, that's why it is still 2012!
