Document Spy 1.2.0 version released
I have got no bug reports for Document Spy 1.2.0 Beta so i have removed the Beta tag from this version and release it as the Production release of this version. If you have already downloaded the Beta there is no need to reinstall it, because the final version is 100% identical to the Beta version.

Drag & Drop install of widgets does not work with new Microsoft Edge browser
A user from France sent me a bug report, that the installation of widgets like the Document Spy does not work when you drag and drop the widget from Microsoft Edge browser to the My widget sidebar panel of IBM Notes. (You can drag the link, but nothing happens when you drop it) As a workaround you can use Firefox or Chrome which works on Windows 10 without problems. In the moment i do not have a Windows 10 installation to analyze this problem, but i hope that i will get a Windows 10 machine soon.

Redbook: Modernizing IBM i applications from the Database up to the User Interface and Everything in Between updated
Last year IBM released a great Redbook with an overview how to modernize your IBM i applications In July a refreshed version of this Redbook was published on the Redbooks page. This book is the bible for every IBM i developer who wants to improve his development skills. It shows all options to modernize classic RPG programs. Shows the modern development tools for the classic IBM programming languages and shows all the new language options like Java, EGL, PHP or Java script which were added to the platform in the last years. In my opinion a must read for every IBM i developer.

New Beta Version of the Document Spy available
Last weekend the weather was not so nice in Grundlsee and so i decided to code a new feature for the document Spy. It enables the document spy to create snapshots of documents and then compare this snapshot with changes have been made to the document since the snapshot was captured. For example i can take a snapshot of a mail and then set the follow-up flag in the mail ui. The Document spy will then show me which fields in the document has been changed from this action. This is very handy to reverse engineer functions in the mail and calendaring. I will provide a detailed tutorial how to use this new feature later this week.
You can install the new Beta version as the old version of the document spy from the download page.
If you have any problems with the new Beta please leave a comment of send an e-mail to ralf.petter@gmail.com

Gut gemacht Microsoft
Ja Microsoft das habt Ihr wirklich wieder gut gemacht. Ein Upgradeprogramm auf Windows 10, dass 16 Megabyte groß ist und das einzige was es mir sagen kann wenn ich es auf einem ganz gewöhnlichen Windows 7 laufen lasse ist:
Wirklich starke Leistung wenn man bedenkt, dass das komplette Windows 3.1 ein kleinerer Download war.
