  • I concur. This is non-standard UI and there are good reasons to avoid subverting user expectations.
  • Yes, the published solution don't support it. I was suggesting that you might be able to if you built your own solution using the menu structure approach. That's what we did with our own FrameWorks based Context Menu Manager, although we stopped sho…
  • The screenshot you posted is not a context-menu but a normal form menu. That is very different. That said, the SRP Editor does support a context-menu with sub-menus: So, yes, it is possible. However, the SRP Editor is building this using low-leve…
  • Good question. There are two ways to create context-menus that can be used with the SRP EditTable. The first is to build a menu structure yourself and create it using the Utility("CREATE") service. This approach allows you to build a context-menu fo…
  • SMH...I'm usually the one who remembers what we've published in our blog. Thanks for linking to that article Kevin!
  • Did you not like the idea of a UDC or are you not familiar with it? It really is a better approach than creating a global variable. The latter approach requires a lot of custom management simply to support a UI convenience.
  • I will be interested to see if Josh responds to confirm or clarify his intent. Until then, I think his second email is rather clear: No I am not talking about the database. I am talking about associating the output representation of a piece of data …
  • Oh well, I will have to do it myself, which of course is trivial, but it does make the code harder to understand, and it's already complicated enough. Wow...you give up easily don't you! :) Of course we are fans of the SRP Combo feature (which is…
  • Are you simply asking if the combo box control can be associated with the database like so:
  • @M@ - I am genuinely surprised I never came across that post. This issue has been posted so many times without any fix (or work around) from Revelation. Obviously the original thread is now lost (I looked), but do you know who posted that code? FYI…
  • Sadly, there is no solution to this other than running OI in Windows 7.
  • My apologies if I was unclear. OLE_GetWebPage comes with OpenInsight. No additional purchase is needed. In all likelihood It will do the job for you. I was simply pointing out that we have an alternative routine that comes with the SRP HTTP Framewor…
  • Jeff - The out of the box solution for making web API calls is the OLE_GetWebPage function. Our SRP HTTP Framework comes with its own solution that has additional features, but chances are this will get the job done for you.
  • Now that I say it out loud, are you possibly suggesting that instead of tring to trap the scroll, identify the change in the actual EDL? Yes indeed. It didn't make sense to me that you were refreshing a data pane simply because of scrolling. I fi…

  • Maybe I need some clarity. Are you interested in when the user simply scrolls through the list or are you really interested when an item on the list appears in the editline control?

  • I don't have a ready answer for you on this. I would need to study and experiment before I could perhaps come up with a solution.

  • What is your LoginMode setting at the time you are trying to delete this user?
  • There is no event that will fire just for scrolling up and down the combo list.

  • So this is site is running RUN_OECGI_REQUEST rather than HTTP_MCP? This shouldn't matter, but just confirming because HTTP_MCP would give you internal logs to reference. The fact that INET_TRACE fails suggests to me that the engine isn't getting c…
  • We have not seen any problems like you describe. However, I want to get clarity on what you are describing as a "communication hang". Are you saying that the HTTP request is made but no response is received? Have you been able to confirm whether or …
  • Also found that power BI does not support looking at the schema anyways, and that data types have to be defined manually for JSON files within power BI itself when you connect to a data source. That's a shame. It means double the work and a very …
  • The important thing is the type as it directly affects how other systems such as Power BI will interpret the data we send them for their fancy graphs that users will make with it. This is what I'm trying to understand better. It seems like you al…
  • Thank you for the clarification. Perhaps you've already seen both of these articles, but in order to avoid repeating what has already been written, can you look at these and let me know if they help? How do I add hypermedia to a resource? How do I…
  • Are you asking for advice on how best to structure the JSON or are you asking for advice on how best to implement the JSON structure you already have in mind? Or a little of both? It feels like a little of both to me which means I'm not sure how to …
  • You are correct, nothing new has been introduced. It is on our roadmap for v5 of the product. However, it is safe to say that this won't be coming around the corner anytime soon.
  • I see. I think there are pros and cons to using relational indexes in this situation. I used to be a firm disbeliever in relational indexes (mostly due to the 64K constraint in AREV and OI 16bit) but then became a convert after seeing them used in v…
  • I'm not sure how your suggestion of including "a field in the row that contains the keys of those related" is fundamentally different from what a relational index is.
  • The routine is Add_Repos_App. However, this is undocumented. I recommend viewing the calls from OpenEngine while you manually create a new app. It will show you the calls and arguments being passed in.

  • @Hank I am very curious what Bryan says about this. We have other accounts using the PHP version of the OECGI and this is the first time we've had anybody report this issue. You also use RUN_OECGI_REQUEST, correct? I assume that formatted the respon…
  • If you want to stick with your modified HTTP_Services code, I recommend localizing the code to your business app. That way any future updates won't automatically undo your changes.
