Known Issues in Oxygene 5 (Fall 2011, 5.0.29)
Oxygene 5 features a brand new compiler rewritten from scratch, and along with it has seen major architectural changes in the IDE integration for Visual Studio, as well. With such a major effort, it is always possible that new bugs or regressions have crept in, and that features that previously worked have changed in unexpected ways, or even that previously undocumented (or even buggy) behavior has "fixed itself" - breaking code that was based on these behaviors. We would greatly appreciate any feedback on regressions on missing features that you see, so that we can address those issues as soon as possible.
Known problems and regressions in this first release include:
- No support for MonoDevelop. In order to deliver a quality IDE experience in Visual Studio with this release, we have focused our development efforts in Visual Studio, the main IDE that 90% of our users use exclusively. The current release done not include any support for MonoDevelop, but if you have Delphi Prism XE installed with MonoDevelop, upgrading to XE2 will leave your existing MonoDevelop install in tact and you can keep using Oxygene 4.0 in MonoDevelop. We are working hard on adding MonoDevelop back to the mix, and expect that to happen no later than with the Spring 2012 update release.
