Hello, I would like to automate the import of xml from a project via a script.For that I use a "$ude('import', ...)" and this import works well.However, when a component is already open in the ide where I want to import it, the refresh is not done, so I have to click on the refresh button on the top left of the IDE.I would like to be able to launch this refresh automatically.Do you know what code is hidden behind this button?Have a nice day, Maxime------------------------------Maxime CHAZALVIELRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Hi all,Our current version of Tomcat doens't really like to work with TLS 1.2.The problem is that most new(er) browsers require TLS 1.2.Does anyone have a 'documented' way to migrate/upgrade the Tomcat 7.xenvironment to Tomcat 8.x or higher - all whilst keeping the lower Uniface 9.6.xsetup?And before anyone jumps in and says 'upgrade Uniface' - we've got 3000+ formsand next to no availability in our systems testing unit....  So, yes - that will happenbut not this side of Easter...As an alternative, does anyone have a list of the files Uniface modifies in the Tomcat installation??Regards,Knut------------------------------Knut Dybendahl------------------------------

Hey guys,We have we have a web application that allows end users to maintain their personal details. Recently a user wanted to update their preferred name to 'Reneé' (note the accented character) but when saving this and the page refreshes, the following gets displayed: Reneé. I'm trying to track down why this is occurring.We also have a client-server application where we can also update this field. On my Windows computer I am able to enter 'Reneé' in both the web interface and client-server interface and everything works correctly. However, for a number of our customers we host our software on Amazon Web Services and it is here where we are encountering the issue.The AWS customers can also access the client-server application through a Citrix session and they are able to enter 'Reneé' here successfully, but when loading the record in the web application the bad characters still appear. We have checked the database (MSS) and the 'Reneé' is stored correctly (when saving the record thro

We have a list of deprecated entities that we would like to drop from the list of entities in our models.How could I do that in Uniface 10, except one by one ...Thanks from your helpDaniel------------------------------Daniel CABEROLead of IT R&D LideaLIDEA FranceMONDONVILLE FR------------------------------

Hello,In the layout of a DSP, I would need to give dynamic id to the different div.For instance:<table id="uent:CALEND.SCX" border="1">     <tbody>         <tr id="uocc:CALEND.SCX">               <td> <div id="This ID should be the value of ID.CALEND"><input id="ufld:DATE.CALEND.SCX" style="width:150px;" value="Input Element"/> </div></td>         </tr>  </tbody></table>Of course, once the ID has been set, it does not need to be dynamic again. The use case of this, is for having multiple dynalic Tabs in a screen. Number of tabs will depend on the content from one retrieve. Is there any way to do this in the Layout ? Thank you,------------------------------Stephane PfeferApplication SpecialistDarling------------------------------

I need to be able to add multiple files into Uniface from Windows explorer.We have historically used filebox, but the limitation of this is it can only deal with one file at a time, which when you have 20-30 to upload, is a very tedious job.I have read in the Uniface documentation that a (DRAGAND) DROPTARGET can accept files dragged from WIndows Explorer but as I've never used a drag and drop widget before I have no idea how to make this work, or if indeed this is possible. The documentation on drop targets is a bit sparse and doesn't give me any clues on where to start.I did create a dummy field and tried to drag some explorer files over, but it just gives me a 'no entry' type symbol.What do I need to do and what trigger does it fire on the field, as I obviously then need to loop through the results to process the individual files in.Many thanks!------------------------------Toni DavenportUniface Community Edition Shared AccountUS------------------------------

Hi everybody,In Uniface 10.4, I get the size of a column in the ExtendedTrigger COLUMN_RESIZED of my occurrence (cf catch 1) that is activated when I change the width of any column. It's OK.But when I want to assign the width of the same column  (cf catch 2) with the same width, it is drawn 7 time more larger. Uniface acts as if the unit was not "px".Did you ever encouter this problem ?Kindly,Laurent.------------------------------Laurent MerotRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Hi community,strange enaugh this is the first time in years I have to do a retrieve in Uniface, "not like" equivalentso the goal is to have retrieved data with first character not "I" and not "O" for the same fieldin sql we easily do in this way:select * from table where field not like "I%" and field not like "O%"neither in the read u_where clause or retrieve directly in field, I can make it workfor example if I want to to a like clause I write in the code:field.table = "I·*·|O·*"this is correctly translated by the Uniface SQL driver into like I% or like O%but if I want to do "NOT like", trying this way:field.table = "·!I·*·!O·*"is translated wrongly into not like I* and not like O* ,so translated with the * instead of the % symbol. that occurs the same way if I do this in the u_where clausemy bad (and ugly) workaround is to write this in the u_where clause:read u_where (field.table < "I" | field.table > "Izzzzzzz") & (field.table < "O" | field.table > "Ozzzzzzz")that p

Release 10.4.02 Downloads Product availability Matrix (PAM)Downloads of this patch are available from the Rocket Customer Support Portal.Further explanation can be found here. New Feature(s) The Uniface scripting language has been enhanced with exception handling, simplifying the creation of maintainable, robust, and error-free code. The Uniface set of default templates (utemplates.xml) is enhanced with exception handling best practices. Remember to import the defaults manually in case you are not using a clean repository for your 10.4.02 Development Environment. Global ProcScript library 'ustruct' is added to Uniface (usys.uar) and is ready for use. For example: myStruct = ustruct::fromList(myList).Check out the Snippets Library 'libsnp:ustruct' for all available functions. Update your defaults (utemplates.xml) to make this Snippet Library available to your IDE's Resource Browser.The sources of the Global ProcScript library 'ustruct' are available in 'uniface/misc

I'm trying to find an easy way of adding a popup menu to every painted field.

Fields are not templated and although now using 10.3.02, it started life in uniface 5.Any ideas please on how I can do this?

We have moved form uniface 9 classic deployment to uniface 10 standardised deployment.We used to hold a copy of the USOURCE.DICT table in the users database and build a dol file with no $text messages in, and set the $search_objects = DBMS_FIRST.This would then get the labels for the system from the database rather than the dol file, which allowed our end users to make changes to labels as they wanted to, these would then kick in after they did a /rma /mes to compile the changed message. HAPPY USERS.How do we do the same now we have moved to Uniface 10? I see that the $text messages now exist in a table called UMSG instead of USOURCE. Do we build it the same way? SO have a uar with no $text messages in and keep a database table that the users can edit and then see their changes in the deployed application? Or is this not possible any more?Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello everybody,maybe it's an informix specific question. Unfortunately I don't know (google search was unfortunately not successful )and I'm hoping now somebody of you guys can give me a hint.Our database environment is Informix 14.10 with client SDK 4.1The users have a form for entering search criteria for a database selection. So far so normal.The table to be selected is pretty wide (about 230 columns) and the users are entering a lot of OR-criteria separated by <GOLD><PIPE> into a particular field as a search profile.Debugger shows me a pretty large SQL-Statement of about 12000 characters.Trying to perform a retrieve now results in a "Informix: Driver ERROR (50): Sql command buffer overflow"As I can successfully perform that generated SQL-Statement via informix dbaccess or via Squirrel (jdbc) I'm not sure where my (uniface) problem comes from.What's causing the error? A Uniface limitation itselves, or is it caused by client sdk?What is the maximum sql command buffer siz

I am working on a migration from U9.6 to U10.4  - however, origin of the app is U5.As there are quite some command which are marked as deprecated or, even worse, are no longer supported ("print_break", "field_video"...), I need a complete list of all warnings. The compiler output is written in the Transscript-Window which I can save, however, the content is cut (I guess at 8000 lines) and therefore not complete. Is there a way to write the output immediately into a file so that I get the complete list?Thank youThomas BIeligk------------------------------Thomas BieligkHuntsman Advanced Materials (Switzerland) GmbH------------------------------
