New debug feature in 3.20 [ABMaterial]
ABMaterial 3.20 will introduce a very cool debug feature! When developing web apps, the console (e.g. in Chrome) can be your best friend. But on mobile devices, you don''t have that available. (can be set-up, but I find it a pain in the a$$). In ABMaterial 3.20, there will be a build-in console. It is using the Conzole javascript library and is very easy to use in B4J.

Dashboard Creation with JustGage [ABMaterial]
For this exercise I wanted to have a dashboard that will provide me with total Expenditure vs Budget as demonstrated in Figure 1 below. In this table, records are added that will have a budget and expenditure. The expenditure amounts are a sum up of records captured in another screen. This record copying and drill down (i.e master-detail) functionality was discussed in this article.

Unhandled exceptions are exceptions that were thrown outside of Try / Catch blocks. Such exceptions cause the process to exit in all cases except of server applications. Starting from B4J v5.0 it is possible to catch such exceptions. This is done with the Application_Error sub (in the Main module).

How to implement a library version lock [ABMaterial]
Starting with ABMaterial v2.50, there are two version fields in the ABM object. The first reports the version of the library while a second includes the version number in the name. The unique version field makes it easy to implement a version lock in your apps by simply referencing the version specific field.
