Re: Anybody written a JSON Parser?

Thank you Mikhail for your excellent example. In examining the sample Mikhail provided, I became interested in the Member_Name$ parameter. After checking it out I realized its role was unclear and it didn't perform in all cases the way I think it should. So I have updated both the JSON Parser (web_s...

Re: MAC Bugs Listing

I have to apologize for the delays in publishing 4.32. Especially on the MAC. I am about 75% done with the MAC version. The others are done, including 32 bit Linux. Once 4.32 is out I will address something for Luis and then fix the the bugs listed here. It has been quite a year. I will explain at t...

Re: IP V6 Compatibility?

Version 4.32 uses the latest stable Curl 7.164 for HTTP Client.
4.32 also uses Open SSL 102e.
I'm sure these will support IP V6.

Mikhail is still grappling with upgrading the HTTP Server library. He has made progress recently.
The new library is pretty close to a total rewrite.

Re: Is the Wiki Down?

The wiki is back up. The main page is slightly restructured in the new edition. The look of it is also different. Mikhail and I played around with some of the skins which show up under under preferences after you log in. There is a bit more that can be done to tweak some of th skins. We also had an ...

Re: What does "==" mean?

BR (WB) has always supported two special forms of assignment in addition to the regular form. A simple single equal sign ( = ) is context sensitive. If it occurs in a conditional clause such as IF A = B THEN, it signifies comparison. If it occurs outside of a comparison clause it signifies assignmen...

Win 10 file selection

I was frustrated by win 10 file explorer losing the win 8 ability to select scattered files without holding down the ctl key until I discovered the VIEW option called Item Check Boxes. Check that box and Item Check Boxes become available again.

Re: BR Future Plans

This is a fair point Steve. In checking my BR Plans document from last October (attached) I see the PDF library update was a 4.4 feature. But you and I had earlier conversations that it would be given priority on the MAC. In order to compile BR on on a current MAC release we have to upgrade it to WX...

BR Future Plans

I have been thinking about the current state of BR, what is achievable by myself and Mikhail, and what is most needed by the BR community. I have decided to defer some of the language extensions described in the 2015 conference in favor of getting something to market. Great ideas don't do anyone any...

Re: Anybody written a JSON Parser?

The BR JSON library is extensive and well documented. And it is free. It is the library built into the BR Web Server. This library can be used independently of using the web server to serve web pages. In other words the web server program is also a library that doesn't need to be running on its own ...
