os backup (or primitive backup) drawbacks - main drawback that it's offline only because you need to turn off the database to backup otherwise it will be corrupt some other drawbacks, several times larger in size because there are no incremental backups and you're copying extents which are...

you might want to have a look at the str_beautify() function in slibstr.p, in the progress standard libraries project at the oehive.org. the first thing the function does is break down the string into words. {slib/slibstr.i} message str_beautify( " hello world , ( 10x ) . GOOD...

the slibmath.p library, in the progress standard libraries project, at the oehive.org has 100% progress tan, cos, sin etc. functions.

i have not heard of data protector and i don't know that tsm can backup progress database(s) directly. but you ca backup your database(s) to directories and files, that tsm can backup. the progress standard libraries opensource project at the oehive.org has a backup system with some of the...

of course it could be anything, like, a database trigger. i'd try the profiler or log files.

sounds more like it's compiling the entire framework or at least part of it. maybe the .r's are are not on the propath? dynamics does alot of things dynamically with dynamic objects sort of like compile on the file but it should not take 1 to 2 minutes!

there is a google api library and example (though not for sync'ing the calendar) in the standard libraries project you might want to check. at The Progress STandard Libraries (STL) | The OpenEdge Hive

i've been playing around with raspberry pi lately but more for internet of things (iot) not as a thin client. i've been using the open energy project... maybe it will make for an interesting presentation :)

in the 90's ;) why would you like to use dde?

hello stevietee, wsdl was probably the recommended way to do things awhile ago. i think, wsdl was just so much more complicated than rest that most people opted for rest ymmv. just simple xml or most likely json over http/s. i would use webspeed not the webservice adapter because it is so...

i'd recommend imagemagick for converting pdf's to images and any other image read, write operation which is pretty much the industry standard and what i used for docxfactory as well as what progress themselves use hth

i believe, i misunderstood. do you want to know the application user? or the operation system user on the client? i believe, it's the first one, in which case you will need the application api (maybe a global variable) to get the user, sorry. btw i'm not very familiar with the "dotnet"...

you might want to try the windows library in the progress standard libraries project at the oehive.org {slib/slibwin.i} message win_getUserName(). /* this would work on both window and unix/linux * {slib/slibos.i} message os_getUserName(). */

Happy holidays and congratulations! :)

pretty good for africa :)

Hello Lee, You might want to check the free DocxFactory project for generating both Excel and Word files, and covnverting them to PDF or another file formats. Disclosure: I wrote the project. Alon

i'm also not a fan of node.js. an appserver that's a single process/thread that runs multiple processes and is not synchronous is messy for me. i prefer the old fashion way. just my opinion. although ofcourse this approach has its uses like a messaging broker e.g. a chatting application etc.

in our case it's 4gl but there's pl/sql, transact sql etc. but i mostly mean frameworks that render the ui in html/javascript/css on the server side in java, python, c# etc. and push the page to the browser so a large part of the ui is also done on the server side. if you're doing the business...

we might be abit digressing... progress is a legacy database and programming language, that's far from cutting edge, that's just the reality and it's nothing new. the way i see it is that - ui's should definitely use web technologies i.e. javascript/html/css regardless if it's a java, python...

you can create a batch file or shell script that will run the progress client that will in turn run the progress .r and that batch file or shell script can be run from the command line, if that was your question.
