.NET library 1.1.4.0 released
Frank Mantek
library for the family of Atom Publishing protocol based Google Data
Apis. There are a lot of changes in this release (you can find the
full release notes here: http://google-gdata.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/clients/cs/docs/generated/RELEASE_NOTES.HTML)
, but the most notable changes are listed here.
Visual Studio Project Templates
It was never so easy to get going. When you use the setup program, 6
project templates are placed into your Visual Studio template folder.
Now, just use "New Project" and pick the template you like. You get a
minimal, but working, Google Data API application. They use a common
login dialog, log you in, and display the result in a listview. Easy
to start, easy to modify. If you choose the archive download, just
copy the templates from the subversion repository to your Visual
Studio installation.
Better Visual Studio integration
After installation, the Google .NET assemblies are now registered, so
that they show up in the "Add reference" dialog. No more searching
your harddisk to find the just installed SDK...
.NET 2.0 and upwards
The code is slowly moving to the present, and support for .NET 1.1 was
removed with this release. Generics and other features just make the
SDK perform better and easier to maintain. Something that will help us
in adding more features in the future.
Support for Google Contacts
There is support for the Google Contacts API as well as a project
template to get you going.
