Re: Display name on form based on choice made for another attribute

So, I think I figured out the shortcut path, but I am wondering if I am thinking in the right direction about how to display the correct value in the form based on the ID chosen by the user.. Am I right thinkin I would need a query that fetches the belonging name for the ID chosen? And if so, any t...

Re: FIND ALL, SEARCH_COUNT seems to override READ PROTECT Filter

The protection is not permanently held against a record. It is evaluated for every object being loaded. AKA it is a massive speed inhibitor as the rule has to be read n times for every query (where n is the number of instances being returned) before deciding whether or not to show the record in the...

Re: Display name on form based on choice made for another attribute

Do you mean that you have used a text field with choices based on a query? What you probably want is to use a peer relationship instead. You will have full access to all of the attributes of the related BO and can use the field to either show multiple attributes of the referenced BO in the one field...

Re: I Think I Must Be Going Crazy :-|

I have mused over this one before and committed myself to use IF SEARCH_COUNT as the stage gate to my sub processes. I then forget every time. I worked it out because I found processes running and not generating records because when tracked back the search didn't return anything. Yes AIM continues w...

I agree, makes no sense to default to grid for one record.

Re: Database latency - all suggestions appreciated, will compensate

I don't see the point in running a dedicated DB server within the context of an AwareIM app. It's just another thing that can go wrong, and I've always considered it less secure. Hard disagree on this. Database should always be segregated from App server and even more so if you are running AIM with...

Re: Import Action not working

If that is the case then check the text encoding of the database and the csv file (and if it was extracted from a database then the encoding of the source database)

Re: Import Action not working

What does the CSV file look like when opened in a text editor? Excel hides many sins.

Re: REST - singleton apect

You can build up the API call using objects that are in context.

Eg

Code: Select all

api.made up company.com/apikey?id=<<customer.id>>&name=<<customer.name>>
There’s a tutorial on REST on YouTube using the Weather.com app I built a few years ago.

Re: REST - singleton apect

The REST instance is a singleton but (from memory) you could use multiple different user/tenant keys stored in a user or a tenant record.

The singleton aspect is only related to the definition of the REST call, it can be parameterised.

Would anyone else find a QueryLayout Object useful? What is this? At the moment a query consists of two parts combined into one - FIND and then a UI Layout Because this is encapsulated into a single object then minor modifications of that Query require completely new Queries For example FIND Car WHE...

Re: Aria AI knows about AIM

I asked it to write a Java plugin to incorporate a Double Metaphone function. It produced something that looked like a Java class.

I’m going to check it’s output tomorrow and test it against a couple of other Java plugins I wrote.
