Hollywood-GUI: HGui 1.2
Fabio 'Allanon' Falcucci's HGui is a GUI system developed with Hollywood, which in contrary to MUI Royale is available for all platforms which support Hollywood (amiga-news.de reported) - although currently there are some limitations under Android.
Changes:
- Fix: There was missing parameters when the callback 'OnChange' for TreeView
items was called
- New: Added flag 'selectGroups' on TreeView class(default to True):
if it is set to false the group items cannot be selected
- Fix: ListView's :set() method. When using the special tag 'selected' to pass
a single item to be selected (a numeric value), there was no check
to see if the ListView was allowing 'multi-selection'. This was
causing multiple selections on 'single-selection' ListViews using this
specific tag
- New: ListView -> Added method :Insert() to add a single record, this is
an additional way to add items (see special tag 'insert' of the :set()
method for further details)
- New: ListView -> Added event 'OnInsert' raised when an item has been added
to the ListView
- Doc: Improved the HGui.Window:InputBoxNew(params) documentation
- New: Added new method HGui.Gadget:freeChildren(refresh) to free all children
attached to a gadget. This is usefull when you have to create gadget
groups at runtime

XAD-Plugin for Hollywood released
Press release: Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working elves in Christmas business, are proud to present a brand-new plugin for Hollywood: xad.hwp! This plugin allows Hollywood scripts to conveniently open and browse archives through xadmaster.library. It uses Hollywood 6.0's new file and directory adapter plugin interfaces which allow you to iterate through XAD archives as if they were normal directories. Files within XAD archives can also be accessed as if the XAD archive was a normal directory. It just doesn't get any easier! With xad.hwp it is not necessary to unpack a file stored in a XAD archive to a temporary file before it can be opened. Hollywood 6.0's file adapter plugin interface allows direct streaming from the XAD archive into the respective file handler without any temporary file overhead. This makes it even possible to stream music or video directly from a XAD file!
Airsoft Softwair wouldn't be Airsoft Softwair without some extra goodies, though: The XAD plugin is not only available for Amiga platforms but also for all other platforms supported by Hollywood. This is possible because the original xadmaster.library was open-sourced a few years ago which made it possible to port it to other platforms as well. Thus, on AmigaOS and compatibles, xad.hwp will use xadmaster.library directly whereas on all other systems like Windows, MacOS, Linux, and Android xad.hwp contains the open-source version of xadmaster.library in its binary. This makes it possible to unpack lots of archive formats like ZIP, LhA, LZX, CAB, bzip2, TAR, and RAR on Windows, MacOS, and Linux as well!
By the way, the program "The Unarchiver", which is at the time of this writing the 7th most downloaded program from Apple's App Store is also based on xadmaster.library originally developed for the Amiga by Dirk Stöcker. This is a good example of how original Amiga technologies are now very successful on other platforms.
The XAD plugin requires at least Hollywood 6.0 and is provided free of charge for all users of Hollywood. Note that it is recommended that you use at least Hollywood 7.0 because with earlier versions there is no support for archives which contain files with non-ASCII names. The XAD plugin is available in versions for AmigaOS 3, AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, AROS (x86), Windows (x86,x64), Mac OS X (ppc, x86, x64), Linux (ppc, arm, x86, x64) and Android. On top of that, the plugin comes with 30 pages of documentation in various formats like PDF, HTML, AmigaGuide, and CHM.
This release concludes Airsoft Softwair's release cycle in 2017. We wish all Hollywood users a merry XAD-Mas and a happy new year!
