Enhancing macOS Privacy and Security with Application UUID

With the Sequoia update, macOS now relies on the UUID of applications for various privacy and security controls, such as network access. This new feature of macOS could cause issues on the end-user side, such as having to often re-authorize the built 4D applications. To address this, starting from 4D 20 R9, each 4D application built for macOS now has its own application UUID. This change ensures better-tuned access controls. Let’s delve into the details.

Auto Tool4D Download in 4D-Analyzer Extension for VS Code

We’re pleased to announce a useful new simplification in the 4D-Analyzer extension for Visual Studio Code!

This feature is aimed at streamlining the process of getting started and enhancing development with VS Code for 4D.

Until now, the 4D-Analyzer extension for VS Code required a 4D application (4D, 4D Server, or tool4d) running in the background. This setup enabled the extension to communicate with the 4D LSP (Language Server Protocol) server.
However, this requirement has been eliminated with the release of version 0.2.0 of the extension.
