iOS project deploy rule script has changed
Starting with GST 4.01.01, there has been an update to the script behind the project deploy rules for iOS applications. If you edited your project deploy rules and they contain calls to the ideploy.tcl script, your modifications may no longer work against the updated script. Deploy rules are considered modified when you right-click on a project node, select , click the Deploy tab, and select the Overwrite default rules check box.
$(GSTDIR)$(packageId)$(DistDir)/$(PackageName)
Starting with 4.01.01, the script is called with a different set of arguments:
$(DistDir)$(packageId)$(packageLabel)
If you select to apply your previous configuration to your 4.01.01 installation, the old arguments in your modified deploy rules may (and most likely will) no longer work properly. You should review your modifications to ensure they work with the new version of the deployment script.
The application sandbox location is not changed when redeploying
From 4.01.03 on, the location of the application sandbox remains the same when redeploying an application from Genero Studio.
The resizeFillsEmptySpace style attribute has been added
From 4.01.03 on, the resizeFillsEmptySpace style attribute allows you to adapt
the size of the bottom table columns to avoid unused space. For more information on working with
style attributes, go to Modify styles.
Android™ colors update
From 4.01.03 on, Android colors have been removed from the package node. Customizing colors in an application must be done with the GBC. For more information, go to Customization in the Genero Browser Client User Guide.
STACK is not supported
From 4.01.03 on, STACK is no longer supported by Genero products. For more information on working with an application's user interface, go to Creating the user interface.
C2DM_MESSAGE and C2D_MESSAGE is not supported
From 4.01.04 on, the Android
permissions C2DM_MESSAGE and C2D_MESSAGE are deprecated. For more
information on Android permisions, go
