Nickenich, Germany - (November 27th, 2018) -- MonkeyBread Software today is
pleased to announce MBS Xojo Plugins 18.5 for macOS, Linux and Windows, the
latest update to their product that is easily the most powerful plugin
collection currently available for Xojo. MBS Xojo Plugins 18.5 have been
updated and now includes over 2500 classes and 63000 documented features, and
the versatile plugins have gained more new functions:
This version provides new classes for SmartCards. The new CryptoTokenKit
plugin part wraps the framework from Apple to handle smart cards on Mac OS for
64-bit applications. New functions for APDU protocol allow you to read data
from various smart cards. This includes reading Swiss health insurance cards,
Belgian identity cards and many more. The same functions got added to
SmartCardMBS class to do the same cross platform for Mac and Windows with the
PCSC libraries.
The ChartDirectory library got updated to version 6.3 with resource loading
from memory as well as a lot of bug fixes. We improved our Xojo plugin to
better handle HiDPI and return pictures with proper resolution setting.
For MacOS we have new NSTextFinderMBS class and related classes to show search
panel. This works for NSTextViewMBS based controls and standard Xojo textarea
controls. In both you can show the user search and replace controls like in
TextEdit application.
As we now build the plugins with Xcode 10.1 for 64-bit and Xcode 9.4 for
32-bit, we moved the minimum MacOS version required up to MacOS 10.9.
For Windows, we got a few enhancements: New date properties help you in the
WindowsFileInfoMBS class. For HTMLViewer control, you can now end browser
session with IEClearBrowserSessionMBS and clear session cookies. MAPI Email
sending got improved to work better.
The new SGLockMBS module allows you to use dongles from SG Intec. The new
KeychainAccessControlMBS class helps with TouchID on MacOS,
InstallNSAccessibilityPatchMBS fixes a crash with NSAccessibility and menu
classes in Xojo, we got a new CURLSURLMBS class for URL parsing and CIFilter
classes updated for MacOS 10.14 Mojave.
Finally we updated CURL to version 7.62.0, DynaPDF to version 4.0.25.63,
OpenSSL to version 1.1.1 for all targets, SQLite to version 3.25.2, SQLAPI
library to version 4.2.4 beta 2, LibXL 3.8.3, and zlib to version 1.2.11.
See release notes for a complete list of changes:

If you have questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
More details in the release notes. Please take the time to check our 2100
example project and check where you can use our plugin features in your
applications.
The plug-ins require Xojo 2006r4 or newer. Also required are 1 GB hard disc
space and around 1 GB of RAM in addition to the requirements of Xojo and your
operation system itself. While all plug-in parts compile on macOS, Linux and
Windows, each function may depend on additional system requirements to work
successfully.
Plugin licenses are available for components or for the complete collection.

The plugins can be downloaded on MBS' website as one big package or
several smaller ones:
