Version
ZK Studio 2.0.0

This is an outline of the new features in ZK Studio 2.0.0.

For more details, please refer to ZK Studio Essentials.

New Features

• Content assist for MVVM

  ZK Studio now pops up proposals for annotation name (e.g. @bind, @load), properties of variables created by @id (e.g. ViewModel, form binding), variables (e.g. self, event, requestScope), and properties of implicit variables (e.g. each, forEachStatus) when writing data binding expressions.

• Syntax checking for MVVM

  ZK Studio validates the data binding expressions for you now. An invalid expression will be decorated with red wavy underline.

Features Inherited From Previous Releases

ZK Studio 2.0.0 also inherits features available from previous releases, such as:

• ZUL Component Palette
• ZK Component Outline view
• ZK Component Properties view

Please refer to New Features of ZK Studio 1.0.2 for details.

Deprecated Features

The following features are removed in this version in order to increase the performance and solidity of ZK Studio:

• WYSIWYG Editor
• ZK Style Designer
• Sample codes
• MVC extractor

Upgrade Note

If you have opened a view of deprecated features such as Visual Editor view or Style Designer, you will see that view showing an error after upgrading to 2.0.0. To solve this problem, you can just close that error view and restart the Eclipse.
