Basic4android v2.50 发布

I'm very happy to release Basic4android v2.50. This version includes many important new features and improvements. The focus in this update is on large projects.

Performance improvements

• Compilation time in debug mode is similar to compilation in release mode.
• Many performance and memory related improvements in the IDE. The IDE
  should be much more responsive (some of the improvements will only be
  applied after you first save the project with the new version).

New features

• Compile to library. This feature allows you to reuse components and break large projects into smaller projects.
• Module attributes.
• Custom build actions - See the attributes tutorial.
• Native support for Google maps (requires Android 3+).
• Sign key signatures are displayed in the key dialog.
• List Permissions button in compilation window - Lists the permissions and the objects that added them.
• Quotes in string literals - Double quotes in string literals will be treated as a single quote:

  Code:

  Log("Hello ""world""") 'Will log: Hello "World"

• RemovePermission keyword in the manifest editor.
• DateTime.DateTimeParse keyword - Combination of DateParse and TimeParse.
• SQL - Asynchronous queries and asynchronous batch inserts.
• Contacts2.GetContactsAsync - Asynchronously retrieve contacts information.
• Accessibility library.
• Bug fixes and other minor improvements.
