Re: Magic 8.3, no main program
Tim Downie
Startprogram in ini is only way I know - no global events in 8.3
What about time for new magjc version? From: main@magicu-l.groups.io <main@magicu-l.groups.io> on behalf of Stephen Saxton via Groups.Io <ssaxton2@...>
Sent: Wednesday, 15 August 2018 5:22:35 AM To: main@magicu-l.groups.io Subject: [magicu-l] Magic 8.3, no main program Hi everybody
I know in later versions of magic, program 1 always runs when you start runtime. I'm looking for a way to run a program in 8.3 every time somebody starts the application. One way I suspect is to use the ini setting "start program = 35", but was looking for maybe a more elegant, maybe something under application event? Stephen

Removed the trim that was not needed

Re: Odd behaviour of dval() function

thanks Luuk for p[pointing me to that direction, just the syntax has to be corrected as below in case someone else is looking at this in the future.

Re: Assigning values to virtuals in a grid
You initiate the function call in the Init of the virtuals, so they become part of the dataview and automatically populate the grid.

Re: Assigning values to virtuals in a grid
Frederik Soete
Hi Avgerinos, If your program has a return value, and you want to fetch the returned value per record, why not insert into your dataview a virtual with init expression "CallProg('...'PROG, ...)" ? We use that technique lots of times ever since V9. E.g. with a vector for multiple returned values. Op ma 13 aug. 2018 15:51 schreef Avgerinos <mento@...>:

1 function call, 1 database stats pass, 3 returned values. Keith

I couldn't make it work yet.
After installing node.js I ran npm install -g @angular/cli When I choose "generate web application" it doesn't generate angular.json. I also tried combining (merging) it with ng new my-app But then I only see the empty application I generated

Same date-type, so a vector will do :-)

Hi Avgerinos

If the required return values were all of the same data types, i.e. all alphas or all numerics, you could use a vector. Or you could pass back a character-separated string, such as "abc¬99¬xyz" and parse this in the calling programme using the StrToken function. HTH Mike Bannon DataFormation Ltd., UK

Pass a blob and pass back and forth whatever content you want. This way you could pass an entire table in and out of a function (mtblset, mtblget), or just a simple alpha field with some delimiter that separates the values passed back. HTH Keith

Re: Magic v4
It looks like the same output as I am seeing.
The purpose of the example, (as in 'what can/should it do') is not known to any one but the person who created this. Short version on how to get the WebSamples running: 1) follow the menu in Studio under 'Web' (set correct settings, and generate 2) Open CMD prompt and do a CD to the directory specified in 'Web Application folder\ProjectName' 3) run 'ng serve' Output is like this: C:\temp\output\WebSamples2>ng serve ** Angular Live Development Server is listening on localhost:4200, open your browser on http://localhost:4200/ ** 33% building modules 194/195 modules 1 active …ic-xpa\engine\fesm5\magic-xpa-engine.js Wait for this to complete... 4) Extecute the project (CTRL+F7 from Studio), and go to http://localhost:4200 with your browser Because the default program is 29 under 'Web Application Settings/StartProgram', the Root-example is always shown. To test one of the programs 2-23, it's possible to run this individual program using F7. Also, there's a bug in WebSamples/Program14 'Format', It is impossible to have an expression on the 'Format' of a field (what this example tries to show!)

Re: Odd behaviour of dval() function
dotnet.System.Convert should work if you add 'System to het CRR
CRR can be reached hitting SHITF+F7 change 'Type' to '.net' then hit 'F5' on the column 'Name', and pick 'System' (versie 4.0.0.0) from the list. now you should be able to update a Date field with this expression: DVAL(dotnet.Convert.ToDateTime("5-Jul-18").ToString(),'yyyy-MM-dd')

Re: Odd behaviour of dval() function
Hershel Teitelbaum
Thanks sounds like a good alternative, but i'm missing something because magic is giving me an invalid error and i'm not too familiar with dotnet
i'd appreciate if you can spell me out exactly the expression that should work. TIA Hershel
