This week we have been working hard on the final testing and closedown of Clarion 7.1.  The Development and QA teams both feel that the release will be ready within 2 weeks, maximum.  We will also be issuing an update to Clarion.Net and to the Clarion# by Example course within the same timeframe.

Thanks for your patience in waiting for this release; the best development environment in the history of Clarion, and you can look forward to more new and better things just around the corner as we ready to release the Clarion.NET application generator in the first quarter of 2010.

In the text below you’ll find a list of features, improvements, changes, resolved PTSS reports, and internal fixes that we’ll deliver in 7.1. All told there are more then 60 new features or improvements, and another 340+ changes and fixes.

(Our office will be closed from 11/26 thru 11/29 for the Thanksgiving Holiday, and will reopen on Monday, November 30th.)
