V12.9b1
It’s been more than 5 months since the last release, but here it is, the shiny new beta version of Lightning Launcher is available, tada!
Yes, I have been quite silent for a while, but even if things are slowly moving, they are nevertheless moving forward.
So what’s new in this release?
95% of it is multi-selection. That’s a lot of work for something that is not even a feature, but if it can save a bit of time and make the life easier for many, then it had to be done. I’m glad it’s done.
Other changes are:
– support for using JavaAdapter in script thanks to Lukas Morawietz. This may sound like an obscure and rarely used feature but it has the power to enable outstanding use cases. Join me to thank Lukas again, he brought together a simple but brilliant idea and tenacity to make it work.
– icon normalization (icon size mode property)
– fixed the folder’s title not updating when changed through a binding or script (that’s for Jappie Toutenhoofd 😉 )
Enjoy!

So, I’m really interested in what is all possible with this java adapter feature, but i have no idea how to use it. Could someone explain, or be even better, create an example of how it can be used?
Anyways, great update Pierre Hébert

Basically it enables subclassing.
It was previously possible to implement interfaces, now it is possible to extend existing classes.
Real world use cases include augmentation of android views to draw custom content, or implementation of a broadcast receiver in order to listen to external music player events.
