It used to be the VSG, then the MDM, and I can’t find the MDM anywhere these days. What do y’all use for mapping Unidata tables to ODBC?

Is it possible to have a complete D3 integration in Rocket MVBasic for Vscode ?Actually, there’s only code integration for jbase and universe…and documentation is slighly different...

Well, don’t know how it happened but somehow the ODBC configuration for one of customer accounts has been damaged and they want to restore it to what it was yesterday.  What files need to be restored to get this repaired?

Are there any TCL/command line tools for updating Unidata ODBC configuration ala VSG?  

Good evening, I'm looking for software that, when I upload a song from my computer, will translate the language of the singer in the song into another language that I choose from the list of languages, but in the original voice of the singer himself.........

what is a repository key in mobius ??

We are a rather large implementation of Universe 11.3.1 (originally created in the mid-80s as a PI install and migrated to PI Open to Universe over the years).   We have 3 application developers but do not have a traditional UV admin (we don’t modify the uvconfig parameters at all).  The system just seems to run itself.  I have read through Tech Specs & Release Notes but have not found alot of detail on how to or what to look out for.Does anyone have experience in going from 11 to 14?  Any advice or detailed check list?Thank you!

June 8, 2022 As a Sales Engineer, a question I often get from customers is, “Which API (application programming interface) should I use?” I usually will answer “It depends”. In this article I will discuss the APIs and the “depends”. Hope you’ll find it useful and informative. Of all the U2 APIs, I prefer MVIS because RESTful services have become a standard API interface that natively supports the nested data model. Many of our customers have replaced U2REST with MVIS, and are realizing the benefits of automation, integration, and ease of use. (a.k.a. “how to get your new features and applications to market faster”) In addition, many have found that it dovetails into their broader modernization strategy. This enables customers to develop web/mobile applications without needing to know about U2. Customers using ODBC with desktop applications like Excel, could now offer a RESTful services interface and not have to use VSG or HS.ADMIN to define ODBC access. Just like XML, JSON is a great

Hi!  I am using Cursor to code (more than just coding, Cursor excels in Agentic programming tasks, I find it better than VS Code).  Cursor is a fork of VS Code, but it does not use the official Microsoft Visual Studio Marketplace. Instead, it uses a community-driven registry called Open VSX. Rocket MV Basic extension is not listed as a valid extension, so I can’t install it from the Extensions tab.  Gemini tells me I have two alternatives to install the extension in Cursor:Option 1: Cursor allows you to import the extensions from VS Code. This option is not working for me. Option 2: Install it directly from a VSIX file, that should be downloadable from the Rocket MV Basic Extension on the VS Code Marketplace. But there is no link to download a .vsix file to install it manually.  So I’m stuck with the installation.  The best solution would be to add the extension to the Open VSX catalog, so it can be installed from the Extensions menu and updated automatically.  If not possible, can any

Hello all, We are currently in the process of upgrading from Uniface 10.4.02.052 to 10.4.03.019 and have noticed a difference in behaviour with our HTML widget that we are not sure how to resolve. I believe this is probably due to a newer version of the CEF framework that is included in this release. I know that Uniface is not responsible for CEF functionality, however, I wonder if anyone has encountered the following issue or can suggest a solution.... We have a form component with a HTML widget on it. We communicate with a third-party via REST APIs and they send us back the URLs of a number of images, and we then update the HTML widget to render these images. The URLs to these images are stored on a CDN. Whenever the HTML widget renders these images the following error is recorded in the message frame: HTML Widget: Third-party cookie will be blocked. Learn more in the Issues tab. The HTML widget displays many images and so this error appears many times. Despite this, the images are s

DownloadsProduct availability Matrix (PAM)Downloads of this patch are available from the Rocket Customer Support Portal.New Feature(s)The locale formatting library used by the DSP client has been upgraded to the latest version This JavaScript date library supports parsing, validating, manipulating, and formatting dates within the DSP client. The update enhances localization behavior for more consistent and formally correct output in line with newer locale standards. As a result, date, time, and datetime formatting may show minor visible changes for some locales. Field templates for modeled entities have been updated to use UX widgets by default. All new fields created from these templates will automatically inherit UX widget properties.NOTE: To apply the latest IDE templates, you need to import the updated utemplates.xml, located in your uniface\misc folder.CurrenciesSQLite has been upgraded to version 3.51.3 on both U1.0 and U2.0 for improved security OpenSSL used in Uniface has been

Currently in our version control system, we have exports of each component we generate in Uniface, which are then imported during check out and then exported during check in.  In our migration from 9.7 to 10.4, one of the things I would like to do is do a full export of everything from my 10.4 repository to put back into version control.Individual components are pretty easy, as we can name the component we want to export and pass that to $ude, since we know the name of the component from our version control system.  What I would like to be able to do is from within Uniface, list all of the components programmatically and then for each individual component, export each component to its own XML file for check in.  Is there a way to list all components or even all objects in the repository programmatically? 

On out development server, we have several installs of uniface for different uses (devel, testing, ‘live’ etc.) Some of these I can tell apart in the “Programs and Features” because they are different versions or patches. Others I cannot. Having just uninstalled the wrong version in an attempt to fix another problem, the question is. Is there a trick to naming the installations inthe Programs and features MMC so we can tell them apart. The info gives us version and install date, but not install path, and I can’t see any sensible way to differentiate them. Iain

Hi I am looking for advice on acquiring Cobol code (not publicly available code). I have a large budget to work. 

Hi All, hope all is well.Well, I never thought I would get back to COBOL, but during the watching of a video about AI and MS Access, my colleague briefly mentioned COBOL.   I thought cool, I will check COBOL out, since it has been a while since I developed with the language.  And I am glad I did!   Doing a Google Search on COBOL, I came across Rocket Software’s COBOL infographic.   Wow!  I was blown a way that COBOL was so widely used to this day.   Well, it has been decades since I programmed with COBOL.   My first job, was on a OS/390 Mainframe (nicknamed “Old Charlie”) during the Y2K effort.  Another job had me using MicroFocus COBOL for a Web Patient Application.Now today (decades later), I am getting back into COBOL and taking the first certification offered by Rocket Software..  I am almost done.   A few questions for some assistance.VS Code - How do you setup tasks to compile programs and related sub programs..  Yeah, I could do each one manually, but it would be more efficient
