  • Mark - I am guessing there isn't any undocumented property here. Kevin is on holiday this week so I won't know for sure until he returns, but since he didn't respond right away I interpreted that as a negative response. What happens if you just set …
  • Yes...the debugger is a UI component that is produced form the engine. If the engine is invisible then its child processes are invisible as well. :)
  • Michael - What happens besides the debugger not showing up? Do you hear dings? Also, does developer visibly see the engine in the task bar? What does the System Monitor show? If you can see the engine, what happens if you open it and click on the De…
  • Phil - This is the icon you specify in the Window Properties dialog where it is labelled "Icon Entity" and is above the label "Bitmap Entity". It is also something you can set using the Window ICON property.
  • Thanks for the reply on this. FWIW, there is no such thing as a "trial version" of any of our controls. They were always full versions, but if your license was not up to date (or if you didn't have a license) then you would get a nag message when yo…
  • Phil - Let us know what you find at your earliest convenience so we can continue to help you with this if necessary. Also, the date of your SRPLicense.dll is irrelevant. If you want to identify the version of your control (which is necessary for pro…
  • Mark - Yeah...I wanted that myself once but was told...er convinced...that this is just not possible. The nature of JSON member objects is that they are not inherently sorted regardless of the order you add and view them in the original JSON. Rather…
  • Our good friend Don Muskopf did something like this a while ago. It is one of the screen shots we posted on the wiki.
  • That's probably what I would do.
  • Since there is no separate PUT method in the framework I am trying this using the POST method. What do you mean by this? Just add it to your end point API.
  • First, it is my opinion that POST should never identify a new resource in the URL. That is how I read the RFC. If you intend to create a new resource with an identifier in the URL I believe the proper method is PUT. How are you handling the updatin…
  • Mark - Yes this makes sense. I think where I wanted to go with this was simply pointing out that as far as creating a dedicated "drop zone" is concerned, it doesn't matter what control is used as long as it provides an obvious visual destination to …
  • Mark - Just to confirm, your bigger need is to support drag-n-drop for the email attachments, not the email itself, correct? That was my understanding from the thread you linked to. Is the reason you want this to be handled by the SRP Picture contro…
  • Mark - Sorry to pour cold water on your dreams, but that is not something you should expect soon. The SRP Tree control was picked for this project because it already had the technical framework needed for this type of drag-n-drop. The Picture contro…
  • All I meant was in order to take and end point like this: /salesman/123-2 And still use HTTP_Resource_Services "as is", then in the GET method service handler he would just need to convert the "-" to "*" and then pass that in to get the record. T…
  • Mark's suggestion is fine if you expect all URLs that pass in multi-part Key IDs will always use the same alternate delimiter. Personally I would leave HTTP_Resource_Services alone so it can better survive an upgrade and I would just do the swap in …
  • I don't think you'll find any place where an example of this is readily available other than searching the WORKS forum. I recommend going to Sprezz's white papers portal and review their documentation on OpenInsight Window structures.
  • I think you are confused by a few things and we need to sort out some basics before we can really move forward. You have a pre-release version of SRPControls.ocx that we provided you to test the Outlook drag-n-drop feature. That file should be the o…
  • I'm not sure why Abyss is returning a 400 error nor am I sure how to configure it to accept the asterisk. I did a quick test and confirmed your results. You may want to investigate Abyss' technical support for answers. Must your end point include t…
  • That's treated as a regular character.
  • You are thinking of this in terms of a data delimiters. I'm describing a delimiter used internally by the control. I might be over-simplifying the issue, but I believe this is similar to how the text box control internally uses CR/LF to delimit line…
  • Internally the control treats @SVM as a column separator. Thus, if you push @SVM data into the control, you will find that it will get broken up into multiple visible columns. I think the original designers of OI never expected @SVM characters to b…
  • I honestly don't know but that is potential snag in your plan. I'm inclined to think that if all these hidden columns are SV to begin with then you won't see any empty values appearing in your data. I would only be worried if you had mixed MV and SV…
  • All HTTP methods should be supported in principle. By that I mean that the SRP HTTP Framework will take any method that comes through, but your web server might not support all methods. PATCH is not (yet) formally adopted into the HTTP RFC so I know…
  • Phew! I think that's called dodging a bullet. :)
  • Brad - I'm glad I asked for more details. I now better understand that you actually want to show two OI forms at the same time, whether in a single SRP Panel control or in two SRP Panel controls. We do not support multiple forms in a single control …
  • Brad - I'm not sure why you are having trouble with the two-panel approach. I have not personally tried that, but I would not have expected it to hang for you. However, I might have a better solution for you but it is a feature that we have not offi…
  • Michael - ATRECORD itself isn't used to write the data to disk. It is just a property that is bound to the controls. Thus, setting the field positions of ATRECORD for controls that don't exist on the form won't help you. In the end, OI still queries…
  • I agree, it is kludgey, but - to be honest - so is trying to emulate AREV functionality in OI. That is not meant to be a dig, but we stopped trying to replicate AREV in OI years ago because of the constant conflict between the different paradigms. …
  • I think you have well summarized the options available to OI developers. Our "something else" has generally been UDPs which we gather in the WRITE event handler and then write the record ourselves. Sometimes this is a good candidate for an MFS. So,…
