Hi We implemented a web app using a rest/json API, starting with the PASOE REST adapter. Then we hit limits and had to switch to Webhandlers, so I would suggest you to rather use those. At the end, we had no time redevelopping the whole API with WEB, so we used a URL rewriter (in PASOE's Tomcat)...

Being the maintainer for pdfInclude, I can help on this. When you say pdf form, do you mean a pdf form with fields that a user can fill? (I understand that this is not the case) Or do you want to create a form with a logo, then with 4GL fill it automatically? Or just a document with a header...

ok, so they deliver some .p or .r files; you could deliver also unzip.exe along those files, no need to "install" it, just copying unzip.exe is enough. You put it into the PROPATH, then SEARCH it then INPUT THROUGH VALUE(<result of SEARCH("unzip.exe")>)...

the client side is developped using OpenEdge?

sorry I read too fast. if unzip.exe is in the PATH (not PROPATH) it should work anyway, but if not you can replace unzip.exe in the code by the full path.

Hi, as I say: "You will need to use unzip.exe from infozip (Info-ZIP Home Page)", so you have to visit this site, download and install unzip.exe first...

Hello You will need to use unzip.exe from infozip (Info-ZIP Home Page), then some code on the lines of the following: DEFINE VARIABLE cTextLine AS CHARACTER NO-UNDO. input through unzip.exe -t test.zip. REPEAT: import unformatted cTextLine. <here you test the contents of cTextLine to...

Hi Joe I'm late to the party ;) but you know I'm always available to help you migrating pdfInclude! How is going this 9.1E to 12.8 migration? regards JC

Hello I second @Cringer, and more if it is a lot of data: this will take some time and you could have a (even small) network outage in the middle. It would be more robust to generate it locally, then copy it over. If something fails later on, it will be easier to see where the problem is coming...

Hi Can't you stop the pstimer during the process? You stop it at the beginning of 1, then restart it at the end of 2. no?

Hi Does this help to do FIX-CODEPAGE ( EncodedData) = "ISO8859-1". before anything else? Base64 encoded fits in ISO8859-1 so this could work. Regards JC

Hi Hassam Try the LENGTH() function, it is what you are searching for. ++ JC

Hello Are you going to use PASOE or Appserver classic? This would be the logical step to take, you would then be able to progressively migrate your business logic to the appserverand even reuse it from other places, like a web app. On the Appserver I use PLIPs (procedures librairies) and...

Hi anonymous forum member REST transport is much more limited than WEB; you can only have text/json in the body of the web messages. It may be simpler to implement because it is less low level than WEB; but you can create your own REST web handler once and reuse it for all of your endpoints...

Hi In the second substring you are tryiong to store 40.000 characters in the CHARACTER variable, hence the error. I believe you want to store only 20.000, from 20.001 to 40.000, if this is the case: assign lv_short = substring(lv_long,20001,20000). ++
