compatibility?
Hi Tiemo,
From LiveCode 9 onwards, we will use a simplified numbering scheme:
- If we add anything new or make any backward-incompatible change:
increment first number, reset second number to 0
- If we fix bugs in a backwards-compatible way: keep first number,
increment second number
I explained this in the blog post that I wrote about the LiveCode 9 DP 1
release: https://livecode.com/whats-new-in-livecode-9-dp-1/
The new features in LiveCode 9 will include Infinite LiveCode
capability, with _at least_ the ability to integrate LCB code directly
with Java libraries (such as Android APIs).
