Can we get an updated jQuery UI?

Permalink
I'm developing an add-on, and after going on-and-on-and-on around bugfixes for jQuery UI version 1.10 and manually overriding to jQuery UI 1.11 and it fixing 100% of all my problems, I would really like to know either a. When jQuery UI will be updated to a version not 2 years old or b. How to override a core asset file in a package.

The bugfixes have compatibility issues (I can only guess...) with app.js as every time I get confirmed fix to load up I get this in my console:
TypeError: jQuery.fn.dialog.activateDialogContents is not a function app.js:2


I've already tried to override the assets in the block controller, but it simply won't work in edit mode at all. It conflicts with it. $this->providesAsset does not work in controllers, but $this->requireAsset works.

Maybe someone could shed light for me?

Hi emirii,

I think updating to the current stable version would be useful.

I just checked the version in 5.7.3.1.

jQuery UI - v1.10.3 - 2013-06-01

Have you posted a Github issue for it?

Great, thanks for the tip. I didnt even think to post as an issue on Github.

For now, I will try some tricks on how to override the UI inline.
