App Builder 2024.18

* Improve the Open AI assistant by changing some texts of the interface, but, mainly, adding a new tab which allows us to generate images from Open AI. So we can now generate source code, maintain a chat conversation and generating images using Open AI directly from your favorite software, DecSoft App Builder!

* Improve the app search tool. In addition to app functions, app events, app plugins events and controls events, now the app search tool perform the search also over the app Style property, the app Metatags property, the HTML property of the HTML control, and, the Rows and Header properties of the Table control.

* Fix an error that occur if we check one or more Apache Cordova plugin in the app options, and, after that, try to use the code editor. The problem occur because some expected files cannot be found, since the installation assistant are not including it. This problem has been solved in this release and the appropriate files are shipped.

* With the recent update of Apache Cordova Android the minimum Android SDK must be version 24 (Android 7) and the target SDK must be version 33 (Android 13). This release of DecSoft App Builder apply this requirements for new apps in the app Android options, and also add in both minimum and target SDKs combobox the API level 34 for Android 14.

* Add the new FeedReader sample app (number 67). This app show how easy is to load and parse a RSS feed using the jQuery library, which, as you know, is ready for us in the apps out of the box. The app also shown other things like how to use the "selectEx" control, the HTML template syntax and the app's user functions.
* Make some internal changes to allows app's plugins to link scripts and style files using a plugin's relative path. This can be useful, for example, in order to use scripts and style files placed inside certain folder which is also added by the plugin. This help a lot in order to use thirdparty libraries from app's plugins, since the library's files can remain in the expected position in the file system. This is something that we already can do it from our apps, that is, link to app's relative paths, and, exactly for the same purpose.

* Fix an error that occur if we check one or more Apache Cordova plugin in the app options, and, after that, try to use the code editor. The problem occur because some expected files cannot be found, since the installation assistant are not including it. This problem has been solved in this release and the appropriate files are shipped.

* Now the BAT files generated by DecSoft App Builder intended to compile apps with Apache Cordova, check for the existence of Apache Cordova, and, advise the user if the "cordova" command cannot be found, informing them also about the right URL of the Apache Cordova website to be ready with the selected platform. This is particularly useful for newbie users, who can find the "command not found" message from the console a bit annoying when executing one of these BAT files if Apache Cordova is not properly installed. Now these users (and others too) are properly informed about what happened and are pointed to the right documentation.

* Improve the Open AI assistant by providing a multiline control for the prompt. This allows us to prepare a more convenient prompt, especially in some circumstances, like when we want to translate certain more or less large texts that can include multiple lines. Make other minor improvements, like trimming the prompt before sending it to Open AI.
