This release contains mostly bug fixes, 3pp updates, and some minor UI changes that users asked for.
If nothing in the list below affects you, there is no need to update.

Notable changes:

  • SQLITE is the default database for brand new users.
  • Work around a 3pp system tray bug for windows users under rare conditions
  • User email and caldav passwords will not be decryptable without the user manually entering the BORG keystore password.
  • A number of google sync enhancements/fixes. I don't list them since I assume nobody uses this besides me.
  • Some UI changes to make things better when using 4K resolution.

==================================

Full list of changes:

Make SQLITE the default database for brand new installs. Does not affect current users.
Make an SQLITE-specific DB option tab requiring only the folder, not a jdbc url
Add an option to scale icon size
Fix - System tray menu not appearing #205
Some UI suggestions #202

This release should fix the broken tray icon on Linux Mint 21. It was tested on windows 11, Mint 20, and Mint 21.

*** UPDATE: if this release breaks the system tray on windows, then use BorgCalendar-1.10.04-systrayfix.msi below.
*** UPDATE: BorgCalendar_1.10.04.tar.gz is a portable version for linux to try if the.deb installer won't work for your distro

I'm not sure if anyone ever tried to set up the google sync, but if you use it, then you'll want this release.

=========================
Change Taskbar implementation to fix Linux Mint (and possibly other OS) taskbar issues
add View menu to quickly show/hide Private appts, subscribed calendars, and future todo repeats
Add ability to subscribe to additional google calendars (read-only)
Fix Shutdown Issue (was Backup issue) #184
Subtask table readability changes
Turn on FK validation for SQLite
Improved sync of tasks to google (and other misc google improvements)
show full appt text in tooltips

BORG 1.9.04

Throwing out a quick release because I added lots of new themes (Java look and feels), and some look much better than the current ones. Many dark themes are also included. Java themes can be changed via the Look and Feel pull-down in the appearance options. The calendar colors must be changed separately via the User Color Scheme tab. Unfortunately, Themes that can be created under the User Color Scheme tab are unrelated to the Java Look and Feel "because reasons".

BORG 1.9.04

Add more themes (look-and-feel). Support Dark themes. #137
Add past due todos to reminder email #135
Fix where the "For repeating ToDo's, only show the current instance" option is loaded from when displaying the options UI. #134
completing tasks in aCalendar+ tasks (Android) doesn't properly update BORG for repeating todos #133
display a notification if delete or delete one only is pressed in the appt editor and no appts are selected #115
popup a notification if search returns no results #112
add option to only show the current todo for a repeating todo #106 - fix

This release replaces the IzPack installer with installers created using the Java jpackage tool.

Installers are available for windows (msi) and linux (deb only). A plain ZIP file is also available. An RPM installer can be created if desired.

The ZIP installer does NOT bundle Java. Anyone using the ZIP installer needs to download Java 15 (or higher) and set it in your path.

Please report any problems. I am trying jpackage for the first time.

Please do a backup (Export XML) before upgrading, just in case.

BORG 1.9.0.1 Pre-release
Pre-release

Starting with 1.9.0, BORG will be packaged with an embedded JRE and will no longer require a JRE to be installed on the target machine.

BORG 1.9.0 code has been updated to run with Java 13.

*** WINDOWS NOTE: the installer copies the jre folder from where you unzip it to C:\Program Files\BORGCalendar. This copy may be blocked by anti-virus software. If you get an error during the install, then de-select the JRE package on the package selection screen in the installer. This will let the installer just install the BORG software, but not the jre. Then manually copy the jre folder to C:\Program Files\BORGCalendar afterwards. ****

*** LINUX/MAC NOTE: the installer is supposed to copy the jre folder from where you unpack the installer to the BORGCalendar program folder. This copy doesn't seem to work. If you get an error during the install, then de-select the JRE package on the package selection screen in the installer. This will let the installer just install the BORG software, but not the jre. Then manually copy the jre folder to C:\Program Files\BORGCalendar afterwards. ****

*** SSL FIX - to apply the SSL fix (windows), download the windows ZIP installer and replace the installer EXE with the sslfix EXE.

BORG 1.9.0 Beta Pre-release
Pre-release

BORG 1.9.0 is a beta release to transition BORG to the new Java release cadence and the eventual elimination of the publicly available JRE.

Starting with 1.9.0, BORG will be packaged with an embedded JRE and will no longer require a JRE to be installed on the target machine.

BORG 1.9.0 code has been updated to run with Java 10.

** If you are a casual user, then I would suggest that you NOT upgrade to this release. **

*** WINDOWS NOTE: the installer copies the jre folder from where you unzip it to C:\Program Files\BORGCalendar. This copy may be blocked by anti-virus software. If you get an error during the install, then de-select the JRE package on the package selection screen in the installer. This will let the installer just install the BORG software, but not the jre. Then manually copy the jre folder to C:\Program Files\BORGCalendar afterwards. ****
