Along with Cyrillic ShowX, a new version of the Web Samples packages is released. This time, samples are split by ShowX version, so it is easy to find and locate an special ShowX feature.

Happy sampling!

Version 0.3.0 of ShowX library is already released! New changes and features include support for collection properties and special treatment to DateTime fields. Starting with this version, ShowX is distributed under LGPL license, to allow a wide use of library.

Documentation is updated too, and the first running test is included (testing units are NUnit based).

Along with version 0.2.0 of ShowX library, the Web sample package is released, including index and samples for any supported control.

A new version of the ShowX library is released, now with XML mapping mode support and configuration read from aplication .config file.

Next steps involve mapping of collections, and reading configuration from a separate config file.

Jointly with the release of ShowX-0.1.0, the Web Control Samples are delivered for this version of the library. Equally, this is the first release of samples, and they numbered only one.

By using samples, you can understand better how ShowX works. At this time, samples are the best documentation we can affort.

The first version of ShowX is released. It's a minimal part of the hole system we foresee, but it's a start. We encourage people to use it, if they consider useful, and to send comments, sugesstions and the more. We encourage people to join us as developers too! If you want to participate, and don't know where to start, review Task list.
