Before you get carried away I don’t mean you can do any coding in uniface.  In fact, you can ask about the $hits and it may suggest you have a dodgy stomach. 🤣 What I did which is something I have found needed in many companies but with no easy solution.  How do I get an ERM for my project.  The problem is it either takes too long and is unusable, or it simply can not be done as we hold relationships in uniface and not in the database. So, I tasked it to AI.I gave AI the DICT data for fields, tables (± 1000 of tables), subtypes, relations, keys… so 5 files of data. I thien started chatting with AI. The result is a stand alone .html file.  You can zoom, wildcard the tables, see the relationships, correct any overlaps.  For more features I would suggest chatting a bit more. The source code is easily readable but seems to consist of lots of drawing lines.  You probably would not want to modify the code manually. So, the easy bit is to give it the data, then you need to chat until it give

Our IT services have employed a company to test vulnerabilities. They are reporting an out of date Oracle Java version on our machine, which is patched to patch 10.4.3.042What do people know about updating the Java version independently? Is it ‘safe’ to do so? Or will bits of the uniface environment stop working?  Where is the installation folder to overwrite, or is that automatic?  (afterthought) WHat happens when we patch uniface, does it reset, or is it smart enough to not update a later version? Regards, Iain

Good afternoon, I would like to ask about the E-Learning that appears in the “Road Map”, for us in very important. You can inform us how we can review the courses and when all of them will be ready to use.Thank you

Hi all,I am trying to trace down an annoying issue related to opening files in Uniface Runtime but unfortunately I am not able to identify an origin and a solution.Here it is the scenario:    - A centralized server (Windows 2019 Datacenter) sharing a disk    - All users (normally 120 but up to 150 concurrent) refers to this server to startup a Uniface application in C/S mode    - Log is activated for all sessions ($ioprint = 1)The system is up’n running 24x7 and issues I am going to list are happening mainly from 8:00 to 20:00 when most users are at work but there are cases also outside this timeframe like in the evening (20:00 to 24:00)  and also in the middle of the night (00:00 to 06:00).Issues:    - 20% (extimated) = daily Uniface sessions terminating without any signal or message or other… nothing!    - 79% = Session unable to write log file on shared disk (message:    ULOG Error: Failed to write to .\log\[NETWORK_NODE_NAME]_[PROCESS_PID].log) in this case a UNIxxxxx.log file is c

The ISO 7-Layer model was the starting point for interpretation of the model. The diversity of platforms and technologies spanned both the network layer and the language set utilized by the operating system AND database. These inter-complexities were a hardy challenge to debug and further implement.I’ll not list all platforms and operating systems or databases. These still live in the PAM today.AppleTalk, NetWare, Microsoft, IBM, Novell all had different TCP stacks for network communication.DB3, TXT, ORA, SYB, INF, MSS - all databases with their own functional peculiarities and implicit value to the growing information technology business-scape.The ability to write in one place and run on soo many devices. Do I dare mention other runtimes still around today?The Refresh’ing-erSeeing UNIFACE today these concepts evolved very nicely. Containerizations, purpose-built runtimes, security-enforcement, platform-independent integration capabilities, Wow! In UTF8/16-Unicode;→Inside automation ha

We want to inform you that the Uniface AI Development Assistant will be decommissioned at the end of June.This assistant, delivered as an external chat-based service, has provided useful early insights but has not consistently delivered the level of value expected in real development workflows—particularly due to its lack of integration with the Uniface development environment.What’s changingThe AI Development Assistant will be powered off at the end of June Existing users will no longer have access after this date No action is requiredData handlingAny AI prompts stored within the service will be anonymised as part of the decommissioning processWhat’s next We are focusing on integrating AI directly into the Uniface development environment, with a more practical and flexible approach. This will allow customers to:Bring their own AI models Use customer-managed or curated AI model integrations Align AI usage with enterprise security, governance, and compliance requirementsThank you to eve

DownloadsProduct availability Matrix (PAM)Downloads of this patch are available from the Rocket Customer Support Portal. New Feature(s)Our online doc portal has been migrated and as a result we have updated the IDE to keep you on the latest documentation. Note: The old doc portal is no longer maintained however is still reachable from older Uniface installations.CurrenciesCEF has been upgraded to 148.0.7 with the corresponding Chromium version v148.0.7778.180, for improved security. As a result of this upgrade: * Strict security on file-access-from-files. which is not allowed anymore. * Devtools supports default keyboard, F5 refresh works. * Source code when loaded from file is invisible in the devtools window. F5 refresh is needed to load. This is caused by strict security measurements introduced in this version of CEF. 

I've had a careful look (as opposed to a man look) on the wishes list screen, and I can't see a method of adding a new one any more (ISTR it used to be a 'fly-in' button on the right-hand side). I've gotten through to Jira direct, and there's a Create button, but that only allows for the support desk project, (USL?) not the wishes (UNP). Please let us know when we can add wishes again. Regards, Iain

I'm having trouble adding blank lines, for example to create a new trigger; I can only do it by pasting lines and writing over them. Also, I haven't been able to use the GOLD Key.

I am trying to look at changing to using the new UX widgets. The ux-button documentation states there’s a property “Icon” which Defines the name of the icon as it exists in the ui-fabric-core library. If name is not specified, no icon is displayed. The default is no icon.  I can find no other references to ui-fabric-core by searching in the documentation, nor does it apparently show up sensibly in my webapps folder(s). How can we find out the name of the icons available?  How can we add new icons so they are available to the ux-button (or others)?  RegardsIain

Good evening, I am testing the programmes following the upgrade to Uniface 10.4.3 and am encountering issues when calling a service located in another repository.For example, from application A, I call it using `newinstance "MY_SERVICE", LV_HANDLE` and get error code -58.MY_SERVICE is referenced in the ASN in the [FILES] section as MY_SERVICE.SVC          \\server\qxsrv10\PROJECT\SVC\MY_SERVICE.SVCI can’t find a solution.Has this happened to anyone else? Anna Lisa

 Practically every solution needs unique identifiers. It’s a simple concept—but an essential one—used in almost every system, past, present, and future.While there are many approaches to generating unique IDs, choosing the right one matters.This short video demonstrates a quick and elegant way to generate unique ID values with minimal effort.
