The AppStudio Framework, or AppFramework, contains platform-neutral QML components to allow you to create apps that work across multiple platforms. The components that the AppFramework provides are intended for use in providing base functionality for your app, including managing file paths, networking interfaces, and image manipulation, as well as tools specific to working within the AppStudio environment. The AppFramework library is unique in that it has features and capabilities that are neither natively provided by the underlying Qt framework nor the ArcGIS Runtime but are necessary and commonly used for developing apps. We are excited to share new features and enhancements added to AppStudio 5.2 release with you in this blog post.

 

Enhancement in AppFramework: 

- AppFramework DeepLearning Plugin introduced as a beta feature in AppStudio 5.2
- New restart method in the AppFramework component allows an app to be restarted automatically.
- New UUID methods in the AppFramework component provide more functionality for working with UUID and GUIDs.
- New contains method in the SecureStorage component to check whether a key is present in secure storage.
- The ImageObject component now supports loading of images from a hosted source using an HTTP or HTTPS URL, allowing apps to download images and store them locally.
- The ImageObject component now has an autoTransform property to ensure JPEG images automatically apply image transformation metadata such as orientation.
- Receive Android NMEA messages with Multiple NmeaSource Components.
- Ability to save and edit image attributes in JPEG images.
- Apps can now interface with the Windows 10 sharing API.
- On Android, the Positioning plug-in has been improved to provide more information about the location.
