Off Topic / Suggestions for Cloud servers provider?
« on: March 23, 2021, 05:09:29 PM »
Greetings fellow Pvx programmers,
I'm wondering if you guys had a suggestion for a Cloud server provider? I know there's high end providers like IbmCloud, AWS, Google, etc.. These are probably the safest to consider, but since PVX is so light, I was thinking maybe using Digital Ocean? Anyone is using them in development and/or production environment?
We currently own our servers that are hosted in a bunker. The servers are starting to get old and cost a lot to maintain (warranty and services) and the bunker is crazy expensive as well. Digital Ocean is so cheap that I wonder how reliable and good they are.
Anyone has an opinion or suggestion?
Thanks

Thin Client/WindX / Re: Windx Memory access violation?
« on: March 08, 2021, 01:19:56 PM »
Hey Mike,
thanks for the response. I've had this issue with another customer that was on V16... I didn't notice at that time if the users were using MsTeams. Not all of them had only 4Gb. Some were brand new computers... The only thing I remember is that I've noticed that the users had the tendancies to open up a lot of tabs (around 20 tabs ) in their Chrome browser and it was obviously using lots or ressources. Support said something about memory management in Windows that could've changed, but had the issue with Win7 and Win10. That being said, it ain't normal and wish to find a fix! If it was in my code, I could at least work on a workaround, but in this case, it's happening pretty much anywhere in the system and randomly. There's no pattern so far which makes it really difficult to understand!
Anyway, will continue to post if I notice any relevant information that could help narrowing the cause and find a fix!

Hey guys,
just a quick note that we still struggle with this problem. I'm pretty sure something is wrong in PVX17... I had another customer which was using V11 for a cupple of years without any issues. Now, I have updated their server and Windx to the latest V17.10 and suddenly some users are facing that error (freezes and process stops responding on Client's PC). It's not all users though.... I've noticed that users that had older computers with less RAM and are using Ms Teams has the issue.(it crashes 7-8 times a day) I have disabled MsTeams and rebooted the PC and the problem seemed to have disapeared. Now, not sure if the problem is with MsTeams or just the fact the MsTeams uses lots of Ram ( on a 4Gb Win7 64bits PC ) and causing the issue with PVX. But, the problem wasn't present with V11 though... Anyway, if someone reads this and knows about this, your help would be appreciated!
thanks

Thin Client/WindX / Re: Windx Memory access violation?

I'm using V16.20 on server side... The error is random... Normally, users call me just after the fact, so I rarely see it from my eyes! I've experienced it once last week and it was while loading the main page. That screen is basically just buttons, menus, text and frames. The buttons all have an icon (some are pvx native icons, but some are images (ICO, GIF, BMP, PNG or JPG) stored on the client PC).

Thin Client/WindX / Windx Memory access violation?
« on: November 30, 2020, 02:42:25 PM »
Am I the only one having problems with "memory access violation" randomly on the client side (windx) while loading a screen since updated to V16. It's not necessarily the same screen loading... could be any screen. Some day, users don't experience the issues at all, but other days it could happen 5-6 times a day. Not all client has the issues, but I'd say probably 50 out of 90 clients has reported the problem.
Somebody understands the log attached? (from windx)

Programming / JSON - now array in V16?
« on: September 20, 2020, 10:28:16 AM »
Hey guys,
I'm struggling with JSON strings! PxPLus has changed something at some point and the format is now different causing my third party applications (mobile app and website) to not work with this newer Pxplus version.
Here's a simple code:
test$["44451"]="dfgdfgd"
test$["66662"]="tttteeee"
print Dim(List test${ALL})
In PxPLus V15 or lower it returns:
{"44451":"dfgdfgd","66662":"tttteeee"}
In PxPLus V16 or Higher, it returns:
["dfgdfgd","tttteeee"]
Evertime the key is a number, it does that!? This is causing big issues as we use JSONs a lot to send structured data. I have patched a few of my critical functions to add some special characters in front of the key to remove it after the Json string generation. But this requires me to revise all my programs which is far from ideal!
Is there a fix for this?

« on: September 08, 2020, 07:28:21 AM »
No, I mean... Create a window that contains the Browser object that can be resizable and maximized if needed. (just like a normal browser)
In other words, make the Browser object grow within the window?

Programming / Dragging cells within table
« on: August 28, 2020, 04:59:17 AM »
Hi,
I'm trying to make my appointment module a bit more user friendly and was trying to use the drag and drop feature within the same table. Is that even doable in Pxplus? I think not since cells do not have IDs?

« on: July 11, 2018, 01:52:00 PM »
Why not just try to open an Excel object? If it fails, Excel isn't available?
while 1
ExcelAvailable=0
def object EXCEL,"[WDX]Excel.Application",err=*break
delete object EXCEL,err=*next
ExcelAvailable=1
break
wend
while 1
ExcelAvailable=0
def object EXCEL,"[WDX]Excel.Application",err=*break
delete object EXCEL,err=*next
ExcelAvailable=1
break
wend
