iNomads / Apache 32/64
« on: March 13, 2023, 01:14:38 PM »
There is a note in the iNomads setup documentation re: Apache that states "Only the 32-bit version of Apache is supported."
Is that still the case?

Thin Client/WindX / WindX screen rendering performance
« on: February 06, 2023, 04:17:41 PM »
We have traditionally used RDP as our "client" to a Windows backend server running PxPlus. We are actively testing using WindX (*plus/cs/client) connecting to the Simple CS Server (*plus/cs/host) on a Windows server instead. There is a noticeable lag in screen (we use Nomads) rendering on the client using WindX vs. RDP when connecting to the same server. We are testing with a web license installed on the server and with 'TU' and '+W' enabled - are there additional tips/tricks/settings/optimizations we can take advantage of? I know when dealing with images, it's optimal to have the images resident on the local client, but I am talking about just basic panel & control drawing - looking for ways to improve that. Any help is appreciated.

Language / Detecting a CALL
« on: January 12, 2023, 10:07:59 AM »
Is there a way to detect (within the program itself) that a program was CALLed - even if there are no arguments passed (i.e. tcb(20)=0)?
I know we can probably try to leverage the STK contents to try and figure it out but was wondering if there was something more straighforward/foolproof that we could use.
Thanks!

Programming / Max variables in a program
« on: November 10, 2022, 09:33:27 AM »
I'm getting an error 19 trying add some code into a program but I know it doesn't exceed max program size - I have a vague recollection that there is also a max # of discrete variables that be referenced within a single program - is that correct? I didn't see anything in the "system limits" section of the doc.

Programming / Embedded IO procs/RDB
« on: August 15, 2022, 02:59:01 PM »
We have made significant use of embedded IO procedures with the native file set. As we look to extend to using RDBs (like MSSQL), how can we leverage those embedded IO procedures? I thought maybe using SETDEV(chan)PROGRAM "MYPROC" after opening a table on <chan> would enable us to use the existing IO procs but that doesn't seem to work. Do we have to create database triggers that replicate our embedded IO? (Not even sure how we would do that but just looking for a direction).

iNomads / IIS / single port
« on: April 27, 2022, 01:47:23 PM »
I see in the iNomads documentation that the feature to only use a single launch port is not available when using IIS as the webserver.
Is that a permanent limitation due to the structure of IIS or something that could/will be available in a future iNomads release?

iNomads / *system object
« on: March 31, 2021, 06:23:37 PM »
In regular PxPlus/Nomads, we use the system object to generate a timeout event and then use our function key handler to catch the generated CTL value & execute some logic.
Something like:
def object MY_SYSTEM_OBJ,"*system"
enable event on tim=MY_INTERVAL
on event "TimeOut" from MY_SYSTEM_OBJ preinput MY_TIMEOUT_CTL
It looks like that event doesn't get generated or gets swallowed up when running via iNomads/browser - is that correct? If so, is there something analogous we can use in iNomads?

iNomads / query button
« on: July 29, 2020, 12:03:45 PM »
Does iNomads ignore the %NOMAD_QRY_ATTR$ global? It seems to honor %NOMAD_QRY_BTN$ (it uses the bitmap I specify) but it always seems to render the query button as if %NOMAD_QRY_ATTR$="fQT"

Language / INVOKE/SYS() rights on Windows
« on: July 22, 2020, 02:08:05 PM »
Consider:
1. I am logged on to a Windows server (via RDP) with an account that has admin rights.
2. UAC is turned off.
3. I run PxPlus (inside my RDP session) and use either INVOKE or the SYS function.
4. Is the resultant operating system command run with my elevated/admin rights?
Anecdotal evidence would seem to indicate "yes" but I'm looking for a more definitive answer.

Language / Associative array as a method arg
« on: May 28, 2020, 09:20:50 AM »
PxPlus 15.10
Is there a way to pass an associative array as an argument to an object method?

Language / pxpcefsub.exe
« on: May 07, 2020, 03:21:53 PM »
Windows 2016/PxPlus V15.10
What is this EXE and what causes it to get launched?
It (and pxpcef.dll) reside in the PxPlus folder - I see this in task manager at one of our clients (and I never have before).
Thanks,
Chris

Nomads / tcb(31) in a validator
« on: April 16, 2020, 05:24:31 PM »
If user is in a multi-line that has a validator program associated with and the hits a terminator key [Enter], [F2],[F3], etc. can I rely on tcb(31) to return the value of the multi-line control inside the validator program? Is there a better way to determine that?

Registration and Setup / Windows 2019
« on: November 26, 2019, 07:22:16 AM »
Although I don't see it listed on the downloads page, is PxPlus supported on Windows Server 2019? If so, which version(s)? If not, is there a timetable for 2019 support?

ODBC / ODBC licenses used?
« on: February 12, 2019, 10:45:06 AM »
When accessing PxPlus data via client/server ODBC, the accessing application will sometimes be denied the connection because all available (server) licenses are in use. Is there a simple way to tell which processes (Windows) are consuming the licenses?
