  • Well, great detective work Sherlock. Thank you for responding back as I'm sure this will be something that will surprise others down the road. FrameWorks FTW! :-)
  • Don, We've done a fair amount of work in Verify_User_Access to resolve the way menus are handled. I think some of this had to do with OI 9.x. However, there have been enough other changes that I don't think replacing your code with the latest is ad…
  • Don, I'm glad we are both perplexed. FrameWorks does manipulate menu items based on security settings. However, all it does is use the Windows API and Send_Message function to delete menu items. It would make more sense to me, for instance, if …
  • Don, My first pass at testing this proved inconclusive. That is, my menu accelerator changed as one would expect. Now all I did was modify my Edit menu to have a 'Cut Row' item and I first used Alt+X as the accelerator and then changed it to Ctrl+S…
  • Hi Don, I am going to try and experiment with this to see if I can duplicate what you are experiencing. I would be very surprised if FrameWorks logic is causing this, but one can never be too sure. Are you using inheritance? Is it possible that yo…
  • Dan, by "distorted" per chance are you seeing the left half display on the right and vice-versa?
  • Barry, One of the libraries you'll soon be receiving is call HTTP_JSON_Services. In there you will find examples of the syntax we use to produce JSON content. Hopefully that will set you on a right path.

  • Barry, We have not created any wrappers that do what you suggest. One problem is that such a tool would not be capable of distinguishing those columns which should be excluded, such as synonyms or calculated columns which serve no purpose in a JSON…

  • Hi Ed, Good catch. We confirmed the bug and believe we have it fixed. A new build of SRP Utilities has been forwarded to me for testing. If this works for me I'll email you the latest pre-release build for your own use and testing.

  • Ed, Yes. Those would behave the same.

  • Ed (and others who are using SRP_JSON), Kevin and I had a productive discussion about this. Your desire to store a null value automatically without having to write additional logic is well appreciated. It speaks to the reason we love the MV environ…

  • Ed, SRP_JSON can always be called as a subroutine if you do not care to check for a status response. In my case I typically declare it as both a function and subroutine. Many of my calls are subroutines (for simplicity) since I it is unlikely that …

  • Ed, I suppose we could make that work on a technical level. That is, it is not impossible. However, I would argue that this is not a good design. This would basically be asking the API to make a specific implicit rule for this combination: NewValue…

  • Ed, Okay, we have updated the SRP_JSON library to support the creation of null values. All services that allow you to specify a value type will now allow you to specify NULL. For instance: SRP_JSON(GuyObj, "SETVALUE", "Age", "", "NULL") This wi…

  • Ed, I see. So if you omitted "Age" altogether from an object would the iPad app not handle that properly? If not, then I understand your need to set a null value. The phrase "numerical null" was confusing to me. "Age" is merely a name (or Key). Th…
    in JSON Comment by DonBakke February 2015
  • Ed, I think you are confused. Numbers and Null are both types of JSON values. There is no such thing as a "numeric null". Are you trying to create a specific JSON object or are you just playing around? If you are trying to create a specific object …
    in JSON Comment by DonBakke February 2015
  • Ed, Ordinarily you would not need to make a null. Null in JSON is not the same as an empty string, which is different than how BASIC+ sees things. Therefore, we do not have a way for you to create a null value. If you have a business case for this …

  • Ed, It is included in SRP Utilities, the same library that includes SRP Extract XML. In case you aren't subscribing to our blog here is the article.

  • I'm guessing you don't have a \ParsonsWeb folder on your local machine. At some point did you transfer the IIS settings form the pubic server on your local machine? Maybe that's how it got configured incorrectly.
  • Ed, I thought I would come back to this thread and point out, in case you hadn't already received the news, that we have released our own JSON library now.
    in JSON Comment by DonBakke January 2015
  • Ed, Your point is well taken, especially for people who still use older versions of OI. Otherwise, Jared's suggestion to use RTI_JSON is probably the best option. Our support for XPath is built upon the Microsoft library. If there us a similar libr…

  • Colin, I didn't write the code for this (that was Kevin's job) but I have put it to very good use. In fact, it is now entrenched within SRP FrameWorks having replaced our common use of User-Defined Properties to store data in memory for later retri…
  • Barry, I just did a little bit of research against the "cannot add duplicate collection entry" error. Everything I read points to a problem with IIS configuration, which is well beyond my scope of knowledge. Others might be more helpful. Here are a…
  • Barry, A few questions: * Are you testing this on your local machine or on the actual public facing web server? * What method are you using? (GET, POST, etc.) * Is the EngineServer running? * Perhaps post a screen shot of your Postman entr…
  • Matt, I'm going to guess that this is a problem with the content of your Command argument (which you did not provide) and possibly your WorkingDir argument (is that a relative path?). I copied the donate.png file from the /images folder into the s…
  • To all who are monitoring this discussion, after quite a bit of going back and forth and additional testing, we discovered that the nag message itself had something to do with the SRP Application Launcher failing to execute further. Once Colin was l…
  • Barry, you may have stumbled onto a change in the Revelation forum that no longer supports our formatting. It did work, once upon a time, but seems to be broken at the moment. Sorry about that. What about the SRP Forum formatting. Have you been ab…
  • We haven't added this to the Edit menu yet. That's why I referred to the "context menu" in the blog article. We'll probably address this shortly.
  • Barry, So which forum are you trying to target, Revelation's or ours?
  • Aaron, That is interesting. We have clients running an entire OI application (server and workstations) via Mac hardware and Parallels (or some other popular solution.) I cannot recall if they are using the SRP Engine Server. My guess is that Parall…
