Roadmap
April to June 2020
Our roadmap shares our current focus: what we are presently working on and what is our scope for this quarter. It is a reflection of our ongoing strategic plan, so content can be changed at any time, due to users demands or strategic impact for business.
Please, feel free to contribute with your questions or suggestions for each topic via GitHub. We have lively discussions happening there.
One of TotalCross developers most requested features is the possibility of using native and external libraries within their applications. This functionality is extremely important for several reasons, among them being able to use serial ports like RS232, access peripherals, and perform hardware analysis. It is our number one priority.
To implement this, we divided it into two macro activities:
- Improve TCNI for community use;
TCNI is a foreign function interface programming framework that enables TotalCross/Java code running in a Java virtual machine to call and be called by native applications and libraries written in other languages such as C, C ++ and assembly.)
From version 6 TotalCross SDK is open source. Our goal is to make contributing the simplest, facilitating the understanding of what makes up the TC SDK.
Continuous integration is an important point and we are working to implement it more and more.
We will start with nightly builds, a feature that consists of automatically generating realizations during the night, avoiding wait by TotalCross users for the release of minor versions to access implemented fixes and features.
We know that there is no point in having incredible features if developers don't know they exist and how to use them. So now there is a team of developers focused on producing documentation, guides and articles.
