Nightly news, 2 July 2010

Tagged as LightSpeed, Silverlight Elements

With the football finally over (and, going by local press coverage, New Zealand having won), development has been proceeding apace at Mindscape HQ. We’re hoping to announce a couple of launches in the near future, but in the meantime, here’s what’s new in this week’s nightly builds.

Silverlight Elements

• The MulticolumnTreeView control now supports alternating row colours.
• We’ve added the new MultiCalendar control to our custom styles.

LightSpeed

• We’ve fixed a limitation on eager loading on inheritance hierarchies. Previously we would only eager load associations declared at or above the level of the queried type. We now also eager load associations declared on derived types.
• Also on the inheritance theme, we’ve fixed a bug which resulted in incorrect SQL when a query involved an associated object of a class table inheritance derived type, but the property in the query was declared on a base type rather than the associated type.
• We’ve fixed an issue which could cause entity settings not to be displayed in the VS2008 designer.
• We’ve added a way to decouple property and field names. This can be handy in inheritance scenarios, where a column can mean different things depending on which derived class you’re in.

All of these fixes and enhancements are available in the current nightly builds, available from the store or (for free and trial editions) from the downloads page.
