What is the nature of the data coming from the external source? Is it pure text, a file, a structure? Is the text appearing in the OI edit line control the data being dragged/dropped or is it just data your code will generate?
-
I just ran into a similar situation on a client's new Citrix box. Neither %LOCALAPPDATA% nor the %HomeDrive% paths contained a Windows folder with OINSIGHT.ini. I found it in %USERPROFILE%\Windows.
-
That is definitely not what I would have expected to see. Question: when you run the form does it display an evaluation dialog box that forces you to dismiss it or does it appear to run without any issues?
-
For those who really want to dive into these distinctions, I recommend reading the official RFC spec on POST and PUT. In simplified terms, POST should be used to create a new resource and the server gets to decide the resource ID. POST can also be …
-
Much of this depends on where you choose to define the endpoint. There is no "best practice" here, it really depends on what makes the most sense for your application design and maintenance. /customers could be your endpoint and all other segments …

Barry - Rather than reinvent the wheel, look at the examples Mark posted. Those URLs are more RESTful because they clearly identify a unique resource on the server. I'm not sure if your database record is a single or 2-part key, but it doesn't matte…
-
Guys - Using angle brackets in your responses is causing odd formatting. Barry, this is why you had characters in strikeout mode. Mark, this is why your clientid tag was missing. I updated Barry's post with emoji (since I suspect that is what you we…
-
I think this issue is getting muddied. I would not take the approach you are considering. I can continue to offer my advice if you wish, but it would only serve to explain a best practice approach from a RESTful point of view and to ensure consisten…

Let's slow down here. First, you misunderstood the intent of my question about the RequestURL argument. Obviously I knew you were aware of it since you used it in your example. I was trying to confirm if that variable was being passed in as an argum…
-
Sorry, let me ask you one more question. Is the argument coming into your service RemainingURL? Also, in the Notes section of the comment block, do you see anything like this: Notes : All HTTP web services should include the HTTP_SERVICE_…

I am not using the new fancy srp shortcut coding. I'm not sure what that means. How do I know that 123 has been passed and not just 16333P. I'll help answer this question based on the latest version of the framework, so your mileage may vary. My…

For the benefit of those who are unfamiliar with X-prefixed headers, this is just a way to submit custom, or non-standard, headers. So, the only reason X-Authorization works is simply because Apache ignores it and passes it through. For that matter,…
-
It's not coming through, so I switched to HTTP_X_AUTHORIZATION. Pity. I thought perhaps this had been resolved with this implementation of Apache. That lack of proper support for the Authorization header is disappointing and I'm very surprised thi…
-
Side question for you. Since you are using WampServer, have you found that the HTTP_AUTHORIZATION header comes through or do you have to rely upon HTTP_X_AUTHORIZATION?
-
I don't know any more. One of my senior developers, Paul, has the most experience with it. I have not personally used it in a long time and I suspect that no one else on our team has needed to purchase a new license for it in awhile either. Some re…
-
I'm not sure if you are asking a REST design question or a programming question. If this is a REST design question, I would say that you have two ways to go with this: * Use query params to define the records you want to retrieve from your URL. T…
-
That does not sound like anything I would consider to be a problem. Since I have not seen your problem before and since this might very well be unique to your configuration, my suggestion is to see if you can create a much simpler application where …
-
Barry - I doubt it is anything you are doing wrong. I think it is more just me having a hard time following your explanation. Screen shots and code snippets would be valuable.
-
The explanation of what you are trying to do is too confusing for me to follow. Outside of the crashing (whose source has yet to be determined...we got sidetracked), just continue with what you have been doing since it works for you. Try to see if y…
-
Aren't you already doing some kind of matching to make sure the right Key ID is loaded? I guess I don't know what kind of updating you are doing. I thought it was based on the record loaded in the window. Nevertheless, once you have the Window ID, …
-
What you are doing is not wrong, but the original intent of the control is to have one residing on a master window. You would then create a messaging system (not unlike a web request/response) that would contain all the metadata and payload data nec…
-
As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. I don't believe this should be a problem, but why do you have multiple SRP DirectConnect controls running in a single application? How does this benefit your application to have multiple controls?
-
So there is only one form with the SRP DirectControl control (MAINMENU) rather than multiple forms?
-
I see. Well, the information provided still isn't all that helpful. I also could not understand what this sentence really means: Screen that could be open with multiple copies with ole control with SRP.DirectConnect.1 that receives messages Can yo…
-
Unfortunately that doesn't help me shed any light. What prompted you to think that the crash is related to these products? Did you recently implement them and that's when the crashing began?
-
I might not understand your configuration properly, but allow me to begin by stating that I think you are not following the recommended configuration that Revelation Software has specified. This subject is outside of the scope of the SRP HTTP Framew…
-
I see. If it helps, we try to make it easy to go back and forth between sites. If you find yourself in the documentation site (wiki.srpcs.com), look for the Production Information under Space Shortcuts at the top of the navigation tree. This should …

This is most likely a result of your upgrade not completing successfully. SRP Utilities has two components: an RDK and the SRPUtilities.dll. If the SRPUtilities.dll is missing or out of date, the error you described can result. If you installed this…
-
Did you recently install/upgrade SRP Utilities in this system?
-
You correct enough on both points. At some level OI must convert the data to an internal format so that it can perform proper comparisons (especially those like LT, GT, BETWEEN), but the expectation is that you are using converted data in your selec…
