Just one week left until the conference starts. Spring arrived in Andernach and the city looks beautiful with all the flowers in parks and gardens.
You can still sign-up and join our conference and/or training day.
Currently we have over 40 people from 14 countries:
🇩🇪, 🇳🇱, 🇬🇧, 🇺🇸, 🇫🇷, 🇨🇭, 🇪🇸, 🇨🇦, 🇵🇱, 🇦🇹, 🇩🇰, 🇸🇪, 🇧🇪 & 🇮🇹
Seems like cancellations (please get well soon!) and last minute registrations balance out.
(more)The CURL project is a well run open source project and includes a command line tool (curl), a library for C/C++ application developers to use (libcurl) and various smaller utilities like trurl, a command line tool for URL parsing and manipulation. Since this is all publicly hosted on curls.se and github.com/curl, everyone can take a look there and contribute.
Everyone can download the current source code and build their own version of the command line tools, add the library to their product like we do for our plugins and modify them as needed. Yes, if you like, you could customize it and make your own version.
From time to time you may have made changes on your copies, which you would like to push back to the project. This could be:
You can use our new MFMessageComposeViewControllerMBS class in MBS Xojo iOS Plugin to let the user send a text message. A dialog pops up with prefilled text and attachments, so the user can edit the message and then send it using their messages account, either using SMS or iMessage.
To handle the result, please either subclass the MFMessageComposeViewControllerMBS class and implement the didFinishWithResult event. Or you use addHandler to add the event and use a method in your current screen. You get result integer, which you can compare to the constants MailComposeResultCancelled for user cancelled, MailComposeResultSent for when message is sent, MailComposeResultSaved for the message being saved for sending later or MailComposeResultFailed if it failed like being offline.

You can subscribe to our Xojo mailing list to get notified for new pre-release and release versions.
For MBS Xojo XL Plugin in version 24.2 we include new XL classes to create conditional formatting in an Excel file created in code. While you can always load an existing document with conditional formatting or diagrams and just fill the cells with data, we now can create the rules for conditional formatting in a script. Let us show you four examples from our example file.
Please check the XLConditionalFormatMBS and XLConditionalFormattingMBS classes. The first defines the format to apply and the second one defines the rules.
This example defines a conditional format with a bold font. The conditional formatting is applied for the cells in the range B3:B11 to highlight all cells that begin with 'a'. The AddRule function allows you to define rules with various conditions like to highlight empty cells, duplicate or unique values, values starting or ending with a value or by an expression.
You can use our new MFMailComposeViewControllerMBS class in MBS Xojo iOS Plugin to let the user send an email message. A dialog pops up with prefilled text and attachments, so the user can edit the message and then send it using their mail account.
To handle the result, please either subclass the MFMailComposeViewControllerMBS class and implement the didFinishWithResult event. Or you use addHandler to add the event and use a method in your current screen. You get result integer, which you can compare to the constants MessageComposeResultCancelled for user cancelled, MessageComposeResultSent for when message is sent or MessageComposeResultFailed if it failed like being offline.

We are glad to inform you that the new LibXL version 4.3.0 is available now.
What's new in the version 4.3.0:
New methods:
The LibXL library can be used with MBS Plugins in Xojo and FileMaker. Updated plugins will be available soon. As usual we add the new functions soon. If you need help or want to try the new version early, let me know.
For iOS you may miss the print dialogs in Xojo. For upcoming 24.2 version of MBS Xojo Plugins we have new classes for you: The UIPrinterPickerControllerMBS class allows to show a printer picker dialog to choose the printer. And the UIPrintInteractionControllerMBS allows to show a dialog for printing a PDF or image.
First we want to pick a printer. Let's show the printer picker. If you like, you can set a few properties like the SelectedPrinter property to preselect a printer.
In the Completed event, you can react to the user's choice. Check the error property for an error and the userDidSelect property. If the userDidSelect property is true, the check the selectedPrinter property.
