SAPUI5 SDK

Key Features

Screen Reader Support: Screen reader support based on the ARIA standard has been added for all sap.m controls, among others. The list of all relevant libraries as well as important aspects related to control development are available in Screen Reader Support for SAPUI5 Controls. The important aspects related to app development are available under Accessibility. •Islamic Calendar: The Islamic calendar has been added to the available calendar types and is available for the Calendar control. When, for example, the current locale is en_US, but the calendar type is set to Islamic (either globally or on a data binding type or in a date formatter), the date “May 6, 2015” is formatted as: “Raj. 17, 1436 AH”. For more information, see the API ReferenceInformation published on SAP site. •Switching the SAPUI5 version: You can now switch between existing installations of SAPUI5, for example for debugging purposes or compatibility checks. If you open the debug mode in the debugging pop-up using Ctrl + Alt + Shift + P or the debugging panel using Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S, you can choose from all existing installations or specify a custom URL. During the next startup, SAPUI5 will then be loaded from there - without modifying the app. bootstraps are used. •You can now use the Runtime Adaptation library to allow key users to adapt the user interface of apps during runtime, for example, by adding, removing, or moving fields and groups. For more information, see Runtime Adaptation.
