Class property declarations and assignments on a single line
In 4D 20 R5, the streamlined property declaration now offers the convenience of initializing properties simultaneously with their declaration, akin to variable assignment.
This enhancement simplifies code readability and efficiency by allowing developers to declare and initialize properties in a single line. This facilitates smoother integration and reduces the need for separate initialization blocks. It optimizes development workflows and ensures code robustness across compilers and interpreters, promoting cleaner, more maintainable codebases.
4D NetKit: PKCE for OAuth 2.0
OAuth 2.0 is a cornerstone of modern authentication. Enter PKCE, a pivotal enhancement fortifying OAuth 2.0 against interception and replay attacks. With the introduction of the 4D 20 R5, we now offer seamless integration of PKCE into OAuth 2.0 authentication processes.

4D View Pro: Import/ Export Documents in Blob Format
For those of you working with larger and more complex 4D View Pro documents, we understand the performance concerns that arise. Starting from the 4D v20 R3, we offer a new blob format that enables you to store compressed documents in your database with the same performance as the .sjs format.
A Fresh Approach to Writing Variadic Functions
Many of you are familiar with using methods or functions that can accept an unspecified number of parameters, often referred to as variadic functions.
In our ongoing process to improve your development experience, 4D v20 R3 streamlined the declaration of these methods by introducing ellipsis, making your code more straightforward and easier to work with.
Injecting Custom Data In Websocket Client Headers
Customizing WebSocket client headers lets you inject specific information, preferences, or requirements into the WebSocket connection establishment process.
From 4D v20 R3, you can transmit security information, application-specific data, or other data relevant to the server connection through websocket client headers.
Here is everything you need to know!
Simplify Variable Declarations & Assignments in a Single Line
Starting with 4D v20 R3, you can wave goodbye to the days of writing multiple lines of code for variable declarations and assignments. Now, you can streamline your code, eliminate redundancy, and easily boost efficiency.
