Release 8.7.10.0 is yet another steps towards the wonderful v9. This release features exceptional speed of code generation when you are making project design iterations. If you have an existing project created awhile ago, then make sure that you can generate it with the new release to get ready for Live Project Designer in Code On Time v9.

Unlimited Edition Trial is also included. The new release removes the limit on the number of data models in the project. You can create apps with any number of entities.

We are accepting requests for private live demonstrations of Offline Sync. A number of framework enhancements are introduced in the release in the preparation for the launch of this new exciting product. Just a few clicks will magically convert your online database app into disconnected (always offline) application.

If you would like to see the demo of Offline Sync then please open a support ticket and let us know your availability. Numerous changes to the Offline Data Processor (ODP) are included in the release. The completion date of ODP is rapidly approaching. We will switch the version numbering to 8.8.0.0 when ODP is released to production.
