DecSoft (In thread: App Builder 2019)

Hello Ryan,

You can download it from your DecSoft customer area: take a look at the "Releases" tab, then see in the "/App Builder/Current Release/" folder. Also, for your information, the program updater continue working as before.

DecSoft (In thread: Looking up additional data from a Select ItemIndex)

Hello Ryan,

I am not sure if the creation of the "userArrayRow" with "NewObject" is really required, since you get that object just when calling "ArrayGetItem". But yes; basically the Select control is based in the items index, so, we must use that index in the "original array" in order to get more information in addition to that index.

DecSoft (In thread: Html Tags in AB/ PHP JSON data to AB)

Hello Michael,

There are various sample apps that deal with HTTP calls, and, one of them, the Database sample, even when appear quite simple, it's a complete CRUD app, which allows to Create, Read, Update and Delete data from a server database. Basically the app made HTTP calls and deal with the server's response. So I think you must try to be a bit more specific, around the possible problem that you get.

You talk about HTML tags, Javascript, Ajax... and yes... we can use these stuff in AB, since we are talking about HTML, CSS and Javascript apps. But I am not quite sure that this is your problem. You mention this URL: "https://cherithwells.com/tester.php", and, certainly that URL offers certain JSON response, however, in fact is a wrong response, which can cause problems to be processed:


{"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5}worked!

As you can see above, the response is a JSON object, but, just at the end, the "worker!" string appear... well... that string in that JSON response probably cause problems to be processed. On the other hand, process the "{"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5}" response can't be more easy. Since the response is a JSON object, we can directly access to that object properties, for example:


// Show "1"
Alert "" "[MyHttpClient.Response.a]"

I hope the above can help you in some manner, but, please, go ahead if you have any further question.

DecSoft (In thread: Http control post json error)

Hello Ryan,

No problem. I also post in the forum, so don't worry! :-)

DecSoft (In thread: Http control post json error)

Hello Ryan,

Yes; it's not the best that variables can interfere here, but, the fact is like that. So, we need to be sure that we don't use existing variable names / identifiers for the HTTP keys. Since the HTTP keys probably cannot be changed (that is, the server can expect some specific key names), it's better to change the variables names / identifiers.

P.S. If you take a look at the generated Javascript code, it's possible to see if what we are talking about is what really happend, since we can see the Javascript code and how the keys are established before the HTTP call is made.

DecSoft (In thread: Http control post json error)

Hello Ryan,

A couple of things. It's quite rare that you get an more or less entire different JSON payload... if you are using the same code to do the HTTP call... Anyway, I am thinking that maybe the problem is that some of the keys that you are using are in fact variables in the app, and, for that reason, we get an "undefined" for that keys...

Look at the below code, which is a test that I made here in a clean app:


HttpClearData "HttpClient1"

HttpSetData "HttpClient1" "id" "0"
HttpSetData "HttpClient1" "crew_name" "1"
HttpSetData "HttpClient1" "crew_date" "2"
HttpSetData "HttpClient1" "crew_start" "3"
HttpSetData "HttpClient1" "crew_end" "4"
HttpSetData "HttpClient1" "mobile_create" "5"
HttpSetData "HttpClient1" "mobile_update" "6"


HttpSetHeader "HttpClient1" "Content-Type" "application/json"

HttpExecute "HttpClient1"

The values are fakes, of course, but, they JSON payload is the below one:


{
  "id": "0",
  "crew_name": "1",
  "crew_date": "2",
  "crew_start": "3",
  "crew_end": "4",
  "mobile_create": "5",
  "mobile_update": "6"
}

... at least the keys are respected... so please, take a look and confirm that the keys that you are using are not already app variables, which may are causing the problem.

DecSoft (In thread: Http control post json error)

Hello Ryan,

At least to discard it, please, remove the "_Compiled" and the "_Cache" folders, then compile the app again and try it. Doing this we can assert that the code is the latest compiled one, not any possible waste in the cache... because it's quite rare... that some of the keys appear fine but no others...

DecSoft (In thread: Best way to debug HTTP calls)

Hello Ryan,

I am not sure what you understand with "monitor". If what you wanted is to debug it, please, read this new App Builder help topic, which is perfectly valid too for the current available App Builder. Basically the best is to launch the app from the IDE into an external browser, like Firefox, with the Developer Console opened. Here we can see **everything**, including the HTTP calls, params, headers, response, etc.

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder alpha release 2020.16)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder alpha release, with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2020.16 ALPHA RELEASE (09/30/2019)

* Add the new Sidebar sample app, which show how to use the app sidebar control in various ways, from designtime to runtime.

* Document in the program help all the new stuff: app properties, methods, events, options, etc. Carefully read the help to learn about the new Sidebar component and more!

* Add the new Sidebar items dialog, which allows to establish at designtime both the items and subitems of the optional app sidebar, including all the default possible properties of that items and subitems, like their text, icon, kind, class, actived and disabled properties.

* Add the new app "SidebarItemClick" event, which is fired when the user click in the app sidebar items and subitems. Add the new app "SidebarHeaderClick" event, which is fired when the user click in the app sidebar optional header.

* Add the new "app.showSidebar()" method, which is intented to show the optional app sidebar to the user. Add also the new "app.hideSidebar()" method, that can be used to hide the app sidebar. Add the "app.sidebarIsVisible()" method, that can be used to check if the app sidebar is visible or not.

* Add all the new app sidebar options into the IDE designtime controls inspector for the app: we can directly use the IDE controls inspector to set all the app sidebar related options, including the items and subitems.

* Add the new app sidebar options tab in the app options dialog. This app options allows to establish the app sidebar options, including items and subitems, at designtime.

* Add the new app sidebar property, which stores the optional app sidebar options at runtime. The app sidebar property is an object that stores the app sidebar items and subitems, as well the header text, header kind, header align, image URL and more.

* Add the new app sidebar component. The app sidebar component allows to show a menu with any number of items and subitems in all the app views. The app sidebar is optional, and, is completely customizable at both designtime and runtime.

* Add the new "app.randomNum()" method, which returns a random number from 0 (zero) to the specified max number. If no max number is specified, returns a random number from 0 to 100.

* Fix a mistake in the Figure control, which causes that only the Load and Error events can be fired, but not the others like Click, DblClick, MouseUp, etc. Now all the events are properly set and then properly fired.

* Fix a bug which causes that the "light" kind of the Push button cannot be properly set nor used at runtime: instead the "primary" kind is used. Now the "light" kind is used if we set it.

* If a Javascript error occur in the main "app.js" file, the DecSoft App Builder internal debugger, after show the error message, point us to the right line of the "app.js" file, so we can take a look at the error. We made some changes here in order to be sure that the editor with the "app.js" file fit the entire parent form, not partially, as somethings occurs (it's difficult to reproduce the problem). Thanks Samuel for the report!

DecSoft (In thread: Date time string from global App variables)

Hello Ryan,

The problem is in the [App.MilliSeconds]" variable, which must be "[App.Milliseconds]".

DecSoft (In thread: report control array data is not available)

Hello Ryan,

Are you talking about the Report's RowClick event? If so, you no need to get the item from the Report's Data using any "index", but, directly use the Report's Record property, which contains the record which has been clicked, as you can see in the "Report" sample app, for example.

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder alpha release 2020.15)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder alpha release, with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2020.15 ALPHA RELEASE (09/27/2019)

* Add the ViewsTransitions sample app, that show how we can use the new TransitionName of the app views. Add also the ViewsAnimations sample app, that show how we can also use the out of the box available animations.

* Add the new TransitionName and TransitionMode properties to the app views. These properties allows to establish our custom CSS transitions to be applied to the app view, in addition to the out of the box provided animations that we can use.

* Fix a small problem with the Code Minimizer dialog in case of an error occur. Link also this dialog with the new IDE Code Minimizer help topic.

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder alpha release 2020.14)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder alpha release, with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2020.14 ALPHA RELEASE (09/25/2019)

* The program help has been enhanced with the new toast and strings related methods: carefully read these methods help reference in order to properly learn how to use it.

* Add the recent added toast and strings related methods into the editor Quick code list, in order to be available for your convenience when write the required Javascript code.

* Add the new Toasts sample app, which show how to use the recently added toasts related methods, as well use the main app.showToast() method in various ways, show how to change the toasts notifications properties, etc.

* Add the new app.getToasts() method, which allows to retrieve all the currently showing toast notifications previously show by using the app.showToast() method.

* Add the new app.getToast(), which allows to retrieve some specific toast notification information, as well to change the toast properties like text, kind and many others, reflecting these changes automatically in the toast notification.

* Add the new app.hideToasts() method that can be used to hide all the currently showing toast notifications previously shown by using the app.showToast() method.

* Add the new app.hideToast() method that can be used to hide a specific toast notification previously show by using the app.showToast() method.

* Add the new app.showToast() method, which allows to show one or more toast notifications to the user. It's possible to show more than one notifications because they are vertically stocked. This method is quite powerful (carefully read their help reference), since can be called just with a toast notification text to be show, but also admits other useful arguments in order to control how the toast notification is show, if the toast notification is clicked or dismissed, etc. 

* Add the new app.randomStr() method, which returns by default a random string of 10 character length, but can also be used to retrieve a random string of a specified length.

* Rename the "app.strSerialize()" method to "app.serialize()". Rename the "app.strUnserialize()" method to "app.unserialize()".

* Add the new "Always show Welcome page" checkbox in the program behaviour options. This option is checked by default and can be used to show the program Welcome page at start, no matter if we previously hide the Welcome page before the program is closed. If this option is unchecked, the program respect our decision and don't show the program Welcome page if we hide it. We always can show the program Welcome page from the Main Menu -> View -> Welcome page.

Hello Ryan,

Yes; both installations are intended to be compatible.

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder alpha release 2020.13)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder alpha release, with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2020.13 ALPHA RELEASE (09/24/2019)

* Improve the compiler cache by removing the right cached files when we made some change in the controls properties inspector and the controls style inspector. Before this change the cache files are not removed in some specific properties changes, so we can't see the new properties values when compile the app and launch it, since the previous cache files are used. Thanks Samuel for the report!

* Allow to set some custom style for the NavBar control using the controls style inspector. This cannot be made before due to a mistake: certainly this control position cannot be set using CSS style (commonly), however, this don't means that we can't set another possible CSS rules for the control, so now it's possible to do it if needed.

Everybody can read the DecSoft support forum for learning purposes, however only DecSoft customers can post new threads. Purchase one or more licenses of some DecSoft products in order to give this and other benefits.
