Hey all, Moving a UF 9.x application to Windows 11 - and when I run the app - I get this kinda weird white frame around the edit box... Anyone got any suggestions to remove it?? Thx, Knut ------------------------------Knut Dybendahl------------------------------

Hello, We sometimes have problem with mouse pointer in Uniface application : the pointer is visible ouside the Uniface application but as soon as we move above the most externe component called by start-up-shell, it disappears. The only way to see it again is to close the runtime and re-open it. Have you ever seen that ? We have this problem in 9.6 and 10.4 on several windows platform.

Hi FreaksI have just managed to integrate my "prettifier" into U10 :-)At the end, <refresh> is also called (or better set to True) so that the result can be accessed immediately.The only problem is that the refresh sets the position in the script back to (1,1). Any idea how to get the current position before the refresh and then set the cursor back to the old position?Ingo------------------------------Ingo StillerAareon Deutschland GmbH------------------------------

Hello, We are now using Uniface 10.4 with MySQL 5.7. These version of MySQL is no longer supported so wre are working to migrate in 8 version. We have plently of entities that are using the field OF (it means Prodcut Order in french = Order de Fabrication). With version 5.6 and 5.7 of MySQL, this word was not reserved but in 8, it is. So when we Clear/Retrieve en entity with fielf OF, we get an error message :  You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'OF from V_FABRICATION  where 1=0' at line 1 We thought that Uniface transactions with MySQL "protected" the name of fields and entities by sending : SELECT `OF`.`V_FABRICATION` from `V_FABRICATION`;  instead of SELECT OF.V_FABRICATION from V_FABRICATION;  Do you know if there is a way to set up Uniface so that all fields and entities to be border by ` (Alt+Gr+7) ?

Hi We are migrating from Uniface 9 to Uniface 10.4.02. We have some web services that have worked fine in Uniface 9, but fail in Uniface 10. I wrote the original web services following a Uniface blog article some years ago, along the lines of "How to implement a web service with a Dynamic Server Page". The problem in Uniface 10 is that GET requests work fine, but POST requests fail before getting near the DSP. I eventually discovered that the POST request was being denied by the USYSHTTP component. A simple workaround for this was to simply convert my DSP to a USP, and then everything works fine. So my question is, is this expected behaviour in Uniface 10? Was I wrong to assume it would work in Uniface 9  (it did work)?  I'm happy to be told that POSTing to a DSP makes no sense, if that's the case. I'm just trying to understand. Thanks very much.

Hi all, In order to estimate the effort required to upgrade my customer's Uniface 7 & 8 applications to Uniface 10.4 , I'd like to ask your feedback on the number of person months that was required in order to upgrade your application to a major Uniface versions. For this purpose I've created a Google Forms poll in which you can enter the number of person months (0-3,4-6,7-9,10-12,13+) that were required to upgrade your application to a major Uniface version  (Uniface 9->10 , 8->9  ,  7->8 ). If you have directly migrated an application two or more Uniface major versions in one pass please share your experience. Please click here to participate in the poll. You are also welcome to enter your feedback as a response to this post if you find that more convenient. Thank you for your feedback!

Hi FreaksCurrently two developers are programmin on the same server by "remote desktop".The UnifAce-environment is the same but I do have have different shorcuts to IDE.EXE for them.I create  different ASN and INI*) files for both so that $user=a_name and IDE_STATE_a_name.zip are neatly separatedBut if the debugger is about to start, UnifAce always use UDB.CNF as the config file.Okay, I can modify UDBG.ASN to use another UDBG_a_name.CNF but this is only half the way.But I do not have any chance to tell IDE.EXE to call UDBG.EXE  with a modified commandline.So any idea to name the UDBG.CNF depending on the current user?Ingo PS *) is there any way to use a #FILE in a INI-File?

Hi FreaksThe question looks very simple, but ... :-)If a script container contains two parts, the "declartion" and the "script", a copy&paste of the whole container is not possible.Or better the copy takes all text into the clipboard.With the paste, all this text is under "declartion" and part "script"  in emptyAt least whenn you try to compile this component, yo got errors about wrong scopes.So, ist there an easy way to copy&past a whole containter from on component to another?Or is this [  ] a feature[  ] a bug[  ] who does such strange things[  ] we know it and will solve it[  ] we know it and will not solve it[  ] .......Ingo------------------------------Ingo StillerAareon Deutschland GmbH------------------------------

Hi, I have a weird issue with uniface 9.6.  When I try run a form for a particular record, Uniface crashes out ( Uniface 9 has stopped working).  But... when I run the same form with the same record in debug mode, I works fine.

Solution available in patch(es):      10.4.02-052 Description:When the 'stmtcache' option is turned on some prepared statements are still not being cached. This means these statements need to be re-prepared every time. In addition, the way this caching was implemented had some unnecessary overhead. This overhead has been removed. As a consequence, the 'open statements' setting has lost its meaning. Uniface does not limit the number of cached statements anymore, this is now lef

Hi all, As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm working with a customer who is considering  modernizing old Uniface 7 & 8.4 applications.  In the scenario where these apps remain in Uniface, they will be migrated to Uniface 10.4. I would like to understand the available tools and effort involved in order to add a web interface to the most important screens in the applications, while leaving the rest of the screens as they are.  I saw a white paper describing some of such abilities in the new Uniface versions, but it appears rather vague. Is there a document that explains these abilities more technically? Could you share from your experience how you have added a web interface to old Uniface applications, what tools you found useful to speed up the process and how much effort was involved? Do you know if when modifying some screens of the Uniface app to be web based while not modifying other screens in the Uniface app - can both of these types of screens be accessed from the same virt

A) When you do have proc code on entity/field-level, the sidebar shows only operations/triggers.Please could also the local procs displayed here.Yes, they are (also) at componentg level But there is a reason why the proc code was written at LPME level: Structure and clarity :-) B) In UF 9 you could switch between layout => procode and UnifAce  automatically opens the appropriate proc-containerWould be nice to have too in UF 10Why: Sometimes it is easier to find a field on  the "surface" then in a deep nested structure list Ingo------------------------------Ingo StillerAareon Deutschland GmbH------------------------------

Hello,We would like to set up a mobile application. We followed the document written by Jason: https://www.rocketsoftware.com/sites/default/files/resource_files/Rocket_Uniface_MobileAppBuilder_Whitepaper_Oct2021_v5.pdf Option 1 with the use of external resources works well.  However, we're encountering a major session management problem with option 2. This method uses internal resources.In fact, for EACH ACTION (e.g. clicking on a button with a "Public Web"), the session number is modified. Whereas the session number is only supposed to be renewed after 30 minutes of inactivity. Maintaining the session number is imperative, as it enables us to store information. Ex: the logged-in user.The session number ($item("SESSION", $webinfo("WEBSERVERCONTEXT"))) does not change when the same DSP is opened with a web browser or with the cell phone with external resources. Do you know what could be causing this change in behavior?  Deployment environment :Windows 11Cordova 12SDK 34JDK 19Gradle 7.6

I have also added the [userkeys] to our INI and USYS.INI: Nothing happens. What else needs to be activated for the formatting to work?BTW: I did upgrade UnifAce 10.4.2.0-018 to UnifAce 10.4.2.0-49 but just simple copying the UnifAce-PatchTIA Ingo------------------------------Ingo StillerAareon Deutschland GmbH------------------------------

Hello all, We are using the Uniface 10.3 and 10.4 IDE Utilities to build Deployment Archives for patches of our application. The Uniface Repository is kept in an Oracle Database. Since we has installed the latest patch (Rocket Uniface 10.4.02-050) the Deployment Archive tool is having problems. The error ORACLE Driver Error [-80]: Column has incorrect ORACLE storage format is shown. The expected storage format is not the same as the actual storage format. Changing the storage format from VARCHAR2 to CHAR for the UDESCR field in the table does not help. The same message occurs again. (See below). We were able to fill out the forms, but we were not able to create the actual UAR. It also happened that both forms were empty and no new definition could be created with the same name. When we looked in the database the information about the archives are available in the tables. Has anyone seen the same?
