Javascript API getProperty() bug???Author: ablancouribe@compuamerica.com.ve (bioalexy) Hi, I'm having an issue with the "getProperty()" function. I need to get the class field.getProperty("html:class"), but isn't returning any value just an "undefined value" error. This is a code a made last year and I know it was working.  Maybe there was a change or a bug with one of the updates?.

Performance Problems after migration to AL32UTF8Author: hschmidt@versorgungskammer.de (Hendrik Schmidt) Hello, we have Uniface 9.7.0.4.x and Oracle DB 12.1.0.2. we migrated the database characterset from WE8ISO8859P15 to AL32UTF8 using Oracle's DMU ( Database Migration Assistant for Unicode). We set in the ASN’s $DEF_CHARSET = utf8 $SYS_CHARSET = utf8 $WIDE_CHAR_BEHAVIOR = Unicode we changed in the repository the character field Definition from Cxxx or C* to Wxxxx or W* or U*  and MUL to FUL eg: update fare.ucfield set u_intf = replace(u_intf, ‘C’, ‘W’) where u_vlab = ‘MR’ and u_dtyp = ‘S’ and u_intf like ‘C%’ and u_flab <> ‘U_VERSION’; update fare.ucfield set u_syn = replace(u_syn, ‘MUL’, ‘FUL’) where u_vlab = ‘MR’ and u_syn like ‘%MUL%’; commit; -> 1661 Zeilen aktualisiert. update fare.uxfield set INTERFACEMOD = replace(INTERFACEMOD, ‘C&r

Is there a maximum filesize with fileload?Author: i2stiller@gmx.de (istiller) Hi We just doing some profiling on our application and increase the "rounds" of calls. As a result, we got a profiling log-file of about 900 MB and around 4 500 000 lines. This log file  I do load by lfileload and go through the lines and analyize them. But after 122Mb the file is cut off ? Try to validate this, I did start the debuger after loading the file. $status give the ~960000000 lines but a few seconds later UnifAce crashes (with out any other action) So is there any upper limit? And if yes, how to analyze  profiling log as UnifACe gives us no application that will do this job :-) Ingo

Annoying location of message frame / zoom windowAuthor: knut.dybendahl@gmail.com (Knut) Maybe I'm the only one - but.... Whenever I run Uniface 9.6.x or 9.7 on anything but monitor 1, when I do either a ZOOM or a msg frame - more often than not, especially for the ZOOM function (it always happens) - the window opens in monitor 1. Why? and is there a way to fix this? Regards, Knut PS - I think I saw something about 10.2 having fixed this - but I might be wrong...

$totpage on reportsAuthor: gianni.sandigliano@unifacesolutions.com (gianni) Hi Unifacers, A Uniface Developer I am in contact with was asked from a customer to write in each page of a somehow "critical" report something like "Page Y of X", where X is the total number of pages the whole report will have at the end. He came to me asking: - is it supported from Uniface a function giving back the total number of pages a report will generate? My answer: NO, AFAIK as of today. - is there anyhow a tricky way to solve it, avoiding to answer NO to the customer? My answer: are you using occurrences/field vertical expansion in your report? Yes! The only solution I can imagine is to run the report twice with same params: the first time to a virtual device just to get the total number of pages generated the second time effectively to generate the report output but this solutions could lead to effective errors/problems: 1) With lengthy reports new occurrence could be inserted m

Call out to 3Gl: struct includes char*Author: i2stiller@gmx.de (istiller) Hi freaks Just programming the interface to ELSTER (german tax office application) All going well until it came to the point to exchange a struct Okay, create a dummy entity and add all members of the (C-)struct as fields. The last two members are defined as "char*" Now is the question: how to say UnifAce that this are "char*" and not "char[n]" with a fix number n If I define this as C40 or C*, UnifAce is going into the nirvana. Any clue how to define? BTW: This is a simple task UnifAce should handle! I don't want to implement a wrapper, as then there is a need for an extra environment, maintance overhead and man power. TIA Ingo PS:The structure in question: typedef struct{ uint32_t version; uint32_t vorschau; uint32_t ersteSeite; uint32_t duplexDruck; const char* pdfName; const char* fussText; } eric_druck_parameter_t;

SAP Sybase 16 supportAuthor: jeroen.oud@dllgroup.com (Jeroen Oud) I'm investigating a migration to the latest uniface version, and trying to build a compatibility matrix with the different operating systems and database versions. In the PAM only Sybase SDK 15 is mentioned as database driver. SAP Sybase 16 has been released in March 2014. Is this database version also supported ?

Uniface 9.6.03 - Uniface 9.7Author: i.sharp@pcisystems.co.uk (Iain Sharp) I've just upgraded my devel environment from 9.6.03 to 9.7. A full compile of the system now gives the following errors.  What is the best way to clear them all? (Note we have (probably) not touched the uniface defaults for keyboards and printers, but I can't be sure. ) Compile Device_table: 'P_MSWINX_SJIS'    warning: 1000 -   warning - can't map 29 characters to Unicode Compile Device_table: 'P_MSWINX_SJIS_1'    warning: 1000 -   warning - can't map 29 characters to Unicode Compile Device_table: 'P_OS2WPS'    warning: 1000 -   warning - Table compiled without ^Display or ^Printer meta declaration Compile Device_table: 'P_OS2WPS850'    warning: 1000 -   warning - Table compiled without ^Display or ^Printer meta declaration

Uniface Migration - 9.4.01 to 9.7.03Author: rmcampos@saomanoel.com.br (rcampos) Hi, I recently migrated my Uniface version from 9.4.01 to 9.7.03 (G320) and I facing a few problems that couldn't discover whats causing: 1. In the ASN file, the $KEYBOARD is set to a custom keyboard translation table that I have in my library, but for some reason, when I enter the IDF, that table is changed to MSWINX. In the file, I have the following: [SETTINGS] $LANGUAGE = BRZ $VARIATION = MyLibrary $KEYBOARD = MyKeyboardTable $ENHANCED_EDIT = ALL If I set the table via proc using $keyboard function, worked fine. 2. Component Editor is not showing any glyphs that I have in my library. The curious thing is, the compiled version of the component is showing the images correctly. Already check the library of the component, the glyphs in the library, the ASN file, and all seems to be correct. 3. The widgets that are defined to be displayed in the main palette of the component editor are always being created

Uniface 10.2 and 9.7.04 patches will not contain updated documentation until Uniface 10.3 and Uniface 9.7.05Author: adrian.gosbell@synapse-i.jp (Adrian Gosbell) All of the source for our documentation has been moved to a completely new product.  The old one, was a 'left over from the Compuware era', and based on a number of Java based open source products held together with sticky tape, pieces of string and a large hammer.  We have moved the documentation sources into the replacement, is all connected to our build and delivery processes, and will be (re)generating documentation with effect from Uniface 10.3 and Uniface 9.7.05.  Any patches delivered on Uniface 10.2 or Uniface 9.7.04 will not contain any updated documentation. There shouldn't be an impact as we do not expect any reason for for updates. There are no planned new features, changes, clarifications, etc being delivered until Uniface 10.3 or Uniface 9.7.05. We are wrapping up the MS Visual Studio 2015 project

Caution: 9.7.04.01 is not compatible to patches before!Author: i2stiller@gmx.de (istiller) Hi Freaks We did have a UnifAce patch from august 2017 (0817_1) for develepment and at custom site Now I wanted to update to G422 (newest patch), but only for us  developer. First think I notice: the debugger licence is missing?!?! Okay, after a few try and errors I did find the problem: UDBG.ASN have now to be in common\\adm But much more evil: All componentes have to be recompiled! In patches before, UnifAce was much more tolarent about this. Both version are 9.7.04, the old one is 9.7.04.01 and the new one is 9.7.04.02 @UnifAce: Is this new, that within a version you have to recompile?  Ingo

1737 - Referenced menu USYS_BAR does not exist.Author: zoltan.seres@gmail.com (ZoliZoli) Hi Community,   I'm a middle of a migration from 8.4.04 to 9.6 and one of the applications I compiled on 9.6 starts with the message in the header. Beside the message other issue seems to be with the panels not showing up. But I'm not sure the issues are related?! I could not find any reference in the code. What is USYS_BAR and why is it not found in 9.6?  Thanks for your help, Zoltan

[SOLVED] MS-SQL issueAuthor: knut.dybendahl@gmail.com (Knut) Hi all, I've got a 2008 MS-SQL server where I'm trying to 'slurp-and-burp' a database schema. Currently using the U5.1 driver. I can connect to the engine, I can select data from the tables using both MS-SQL tools and SQL workbench in Uniace. However, when I attempt to exchange model(s) -> Load Definition using IDF - I get a strange error message; HY003 [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Program type out of range I've tried both the ODBC connectors installed (SQL Server vers 10.00.14393.00 and SQL Server Native Client vers 2011.110.3000.00) - no joy. Any ideas anyone? Knut

[SOLVED] $TIMEOUT in RDP sessionsAuthor: gianni.sandigliano@unifacesolutions.com (gianni) Hi Unifacers, I am facing with a Uniface application not activating ASYNC_INTERRUPT when $TIMEOUT is defined into ASN file to silently close the Uapplication after N idle minutes; this application is installed customer wide and it is used from SAME shared disk area in 2 different modes: 1) from standard Microsoft Windows workstations => $timeout is working as expected. 2) from Microsoft TerminalServer 2012 server for remote users => $timeout is NOT working. I've searched into Uniface Library and googled around without success... It should be noted an RDP session could left open/connected on the server but NOT in current use from end user. Should Uniface $timeout in an RDP session (really working or just open/connected and left there from end user) on a Microsoft TerminalServer server work as in a standard Windows workstation session? If YES, are there any pre-requisites (

Bug or Feature: UXCROSS and handleAuthor: i2stiller@gmx.de (istiller) Hi Just doing some coding with handles and the "->" operator. After compiling a did a look into UXCROSS and didn't find the expected information 1.  $handle$->hello()  UREFTYP  = "HND"  UREFFLD  is empty (NULL)  UREFENT  = "hello" 2.  $handle$->"hello"()  No entry at all   There is no clue, which (global) variable is involved. When using variable names like $HND_COMPNAME$, one could extract the name of the called component (or an "interface") And as the second example shows, with a string there is no clue at all. Yes, you need this kind of activate if you do have a variable operation name like $handle$->"%%$OPERNAME$%%%"() So, it this a bug or a feature? Ingo

[SOLVED] Barcode 128Author: cdouglass@siriussoftware.com.au (Colin) Hello Everyone, I am trying to print a barcode using 128 symbology. Its a very simple code, up to 7 numerics (can sometimes be 6) followed by a TAB character. Because of the TAB character I am trying to use 128A. I cannot get it work no matter what I do. The font is installed and the usys.ini file has been changed to put the font into both the [PRINTER] and [SCREEN] sections. When I paint the field on the component and go to the widget properties to select the font, the barcode font appears in the list but shows text (the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog) as the preview. The lack of preview tells me something isn't quite right but because I know nothing of barcode128 I ignored that and moved on. I wrote a component that takes the string to be encoded and attempts to create the string the barcode128 requires including the checkdigit. I obviously an doing something wrong because despite hours o
