Web Services / Re: Google Maps

There are a number of easy to use web based API's you can use for this.

For example https://positionstack.com/documentation

Do a google query and they will point you to various options.  There may be a cost involved if you do a lot of calls but casual requests often are available at no charge.

Thin Client/WindX / Re: Server to Windx failure

Yes -- I would expect Windows to complain if the directory was not writable when creating a file.

One thing you might try is when connected via WindX try entering the following at PxPlus command line:

cp ** [lcl]c:\somedir\somefile

The CP command does basically what you are trying to do -- so the above will copy the system utility ** to the local c:\somedir\somefile.  Do this without an error_handler active so any error should be reported locally.

Thin Client/WindX / Re: Server to Windx failure

We have no way to assist as that software is from 2008 and no longer supported (Its over 15 years old).

I would probably try a different local file pathname (perhaps c:\infor is read only). If they are running anti-virus software you might try disabling that in case it kills any program that it doesn't recognize that attempts to write to the PC disc.

Thin Client/WindX / Re: Server to Windx failure

Ah -- you are correct.

Now as for your issue we would need to know which instruction is failing.
Also, I assume you are using the WindX that matched the version of ProvideX you are using.  Older ProvideX may have issues with PxPlus WindX as there were additional features such as security to consider.

You have doubled the [wdx] references.

You are passing the SERIAL command to windx due the [wdx] prefix on the EXECUTE string, and there the file name is [wdx]c:\in... which would be wrong since the command is already executing on the WindX workstation.

And yes, you should be embarrassed for still running that old a version ;)

Nomads / Re: Popup menu missing the target
« on: June 28, 2023, 06:17:45 PM »
When you have a folder the screen sets a scroll region around the folder area and as such the 'Col and 'Line will reflect the location relative this scroll region.

If you are popup menu you can generally just omit the location and the system will position the popup_menu below the control that currently being processed or the current mouse position.

Here is a program that you can use to demo this behaviour.

0010 PRINT 'CS',
0020 BUTTON 10,@(10,10,10,10)="Hit me"
0030 CHECK_BOX 11,@(5,5,30,1)="Click here"
0040 MULTI_LINE 12,@(5,8,30,1),MNU=99
0050 WHILE 1
0060 OBTAIN (0,SIZ=1)'BI',*,'EI'
0070 IF CTL=4 OR EOM=ESC THEN BREAK
0080 POPUP_MENU "-[&File,&Edit]",x
0090 WEND

Wish List / Re: An updated Eclipse Plugin

The Sage plugin won't recognize UTF-8 since ProvideX did not support it.

Have you tried the ED+?  Its basically the ACE editor with a number of PxPlus specific enhancements.  Also if using iNomads or Webster+ it works in a browser.

Programming / Re: Screen Position of a Control
« on: June 25, 2023, 02:35:16 PM »
Jeffrey,

Why did you want to know the screen position for a control?
Also, for most controls you can reference the 'Top and 'Left properties to get the pixel co-ordinates of a control relative to the window they are in.  This may be easier than using the OBJ function.

No problem,

We had a lot of discussions at this end as how to rework the projects information is the existing setup didn't take in things like WindX, shared PCS, and Linux very easily.  Hopefully the new approaches will solve this issue -- but as stated in the release notes there was no easy way for us to migrate existing settings so you need to re-define your projects.

Programming / Re: pvxplus 2023 - ubuntu 22 openssl not working?
« on: May 24, 2023, 10:37:39 PM »
You likely just need the openssl libraries.

Use apt-get to install libssl-dev

There should be no need to override the SSL libraries.  We compiled PxPlus 2023 on Ubuntu 22 using the libraries it comes with.

General Announcements / PxPlus 2023 is now available for download
« on: May 24, 2023, 11:59:32 AM »
PVX Plus Technologies is pleased to announce the release of PxPlus 2023(v20). This major release consists of numerous new features, customer-suggested enhancements, and usability improvements, as well as a number of corrections and minor changes.

Key highlights of PxPlus 2023, include:

  • Improved overall application security by adding Two-Factor Authentication that can be used with either SMS or email in both Nomads and iNomads. This now matches the capabilities already available in Webster+.

  • New capabilities in Webster+ include support for Tree Views, List Box pagination, and Chart drill down. The ability to share common security files with Nomads and iNomads has also been added, allowing users access to both Webster+ and iNomads applications from a single logon.

  • Simplified database access for ODBC, MySql, Oracle, ADO and DB2 with the ability to directly create and maintain file prefixes and link files.

  • Integrate PxPlus with non-PxPlus databases using various new tools and utilities designed to import and maintain links to external databases. Many of these new tools will also work on native PxPlus data files, making Data Dictionary maintenance easier than ever before.

  • The IDE has been enhanced to better handle projects and associated control files. In addition, it is now easier to use the IDE over the Web, via any Internet browser or iNomads. Non-Windows development shops can now also use the IDE.

  • Wiki pages can now be created dynamically for both your Nomads and Webster+ pages from information stored in the PxPlus Data Dictionary. This new feature makes it easy to generate and provide consistent online documentation for applications with a minimum amount of effort.

  • The Remote Process server has had a major overhaul so that it can now be used to provide background access to workstation devices and resources. This is key in the development of Web-based applications where local access is needed.

Nomads / Re: HTML Tip
« on: May 23, 2023, 10:30:05 AM »
Jeff,

Thanks but I tried this on my system here using 16.20 (and other releases) and I didn't get any scrollbar.  I tried both with $0d0a$ between each lin, $0a$ between each line, and nothing between the lines -- all worked.

Here is what I did.

->print x$
<p>Hinge Locations are measured from Top of Door</p>
<p>Hinge Location 1: 7-12</p>
<p>Hinge Location 2: 7-12</p>
<p>Hinge Location 3: 7-12</p>

->list_box 10,@(10,10,10,10),tip=x$

Can you provide details on what you are loading into the 'Tip$ property?

Thin Client/WindX / Re: Use Client *IT in WindX plugin
« on: May 12, 2023, 02:44:00 PM »
Why not just use a demo license on your laptop?

Use WindX to copy the files over to the PC or remote mount the Linux host to get access to the programs.

The only issue is that the Demo license will remind you periodically that you are running a demo, but if all you are doing is editing programs this should not be an issue.
