Yesterday I brought you news from the Rip-Dev team. Installer v4 is still in the works and gest more complete every day. Today RiP-Dev released some more information about the new Installer V4. Read on after the break.
Today’s short facts about Installer 4 are really short. 
First, we have added dependencies. This means that if a particular package requires, say, Jiggy Runtime, when you try to install it, the Jiggy Runtime will be installed too (if available). If it is not available, tough luck, you will not be able to install the package – but this is for your own safety. We really don’t want to support the mess on your iPhone (or iPod touch) so Installer will make sure you got everything installed correctly.
And second, the Installer is fully multithreaded now. Which means, sources refresh, package installation can now go in parallel (and in the background, so you don’t have to stare down that progress bar at the bottom of the screen). Moreover, you can now cancel any of the tasks.
Both of these things may sound obvious, and we’re not pretending we’re inventing something new – but, rather, adding the missing functionality into the Installer (at last).
Cheers! Back to Xcode now.
