Release Notes

Radically improved the remote<->local file transfer features. There is an all-new UI and infrastructure for specifying connections, connecting them with projects, and copying files in each direction. The system is easier to use, faster, and more reliable than the previous system.

Merged the Project and File views into a single view based on Eclipse’s more modern common navigator framework, and integrate the file transfer mechanisms with that view.

Firebug 1.4 and 1.5 Support.

Improved our Find/Replace mechanism. We previously had a great deal of custom code for Find/Replace that conflicted with the mechanisms in Eclipse 3.5. Our new system works much like the old system, but relies on the Find/Replace system in Eclipse for most of its functionality. The only feature we’ve removed is the ability to do multiline search, but the same effect can be achieved using regular expressions.

AJAX framework updates, including support for YUI 3.0. Additional framework updates will be coming out separately over time.

Note for users who upgrade in place from RadRails 1.5: RadRails 2.0 no longer includes a direct dependency on the XULRunner dependency, relying instead on the latest XULRunner provided by Zend. As part of the upgrade from 1.5, the Aptana version of XULRunner will be disabled, and your Firefox preview will no longer work. To make it work again you will need to install the new XULRunner plugin via the Plugin Manager.
