Other B4i v7.50 BETA has been released

[Erel]

I'm happy to release a new version of B4i.
This update brings the recent IDE performance improvements, new language features and more.

• IDE performance - several cases where the typing speed became slow were fixed. The speed difference in those cases is significant.
• IIf - Inline If, also called ternary if as it is an operator with three arguments.
  
  Label1.Text = IIf(TextField1.Text <> "", TextField1.Text, "Please enter value")
• As - Inline casting. Allows inline casting from one type to another. Some examples:
  
  Dim Buttons As List = Array(Button1, Button2, Button3, Button4, Button5)Dim s As String = Buttons.Get(2).As(B4XView).Text
  Buttons.Get(2).As(B4XView).Text = "abc"
  Dim j As String = $"{"data": {
  "key1": "value1",
  "complex_key2": {
  "key": "value2"
  }
  },
  "items": [0, 1, 2]
  }"$
  Dim parser As JSONParser
  parser.Initialize(j)
  Dim m As Map = parser.NextObject
  Dim value1 As String = m.Get("data").As(Map).Get("key1")
  Dim value2 As String = m.Get("data").As(Map).Get("complex_key2").As(Map).Get("key")
  Dim FirstItemInList As String = m.Get("items").As(List).Get(0)
  For Each item As Int In m.Get("items").As(List)
  Log(item)
  Next
  Root.GetView(8).As(WebView).LoadUrl("https://www.google.com")

• b4xlibs support class templates, this makes it possible to add B4XPages classes from B4i.
• Updated internal libraries: iWebSocket, iFirebaseAuth, iFacebook, iDebug2 and iCore.
• Bug fixes and other minor improvements.

Developers who are eligible for free upgrades will receive an email with a link to the beta version.
