BrowserPlus 2.4.8, New Services, New Tools

We're pleased to announce the general availability of BrowserPlus platform 2.4.8, some updated developer tools, and a shiny new service! Here's an itemized list of what's new and what's changed:

BrowserPlus platform 2.4.8 includes:

  • Experimental support for 3 new languages (Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian)
  • Experimental support for windows 7
  • Oodles of bugfixes and stability improvements.

The new and improved Service Explorer comes with the following enhancements:

  • Allows parameters to be specified for all argument types (including callbacks and file handles)
  • Automatically provides callback arguments for all functions
  • Improved parameter help
  • Improved provision of default parameters

Additionally we've shipped a new version of the Uploader service that supports cross domain uploads via a crossdomain.xml file hosted on the upload target. This is the same tried and true mechanism that flash employs to provide a similar feature, and you can read all about the file format on Adobe's site.

Finally, we've push an alpha version of a brand new service, PublishSubscribe, this service allows secure cross-document and even cross-browser messaging. Check out our code demo for a visceral idea of how this works.

Finally, thanks to all who continue to work with us and provide feedback in our forums and on IRC, don't be strangers!
