Handling a callback url (3 replies)

mixgh — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 00:22:55 +0200

Hi,
I'm totally at sea with some of the internet technologies, though I have been able to survive using WebDev.

Has anyone ever processed a callback url after an HTTPSend() call. Some sample code would be of great help.

Thanks and regards

windev mobile camera (1 reply)

SteveSitas — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 20:01:40 +0200

Hello,
I have been tesing this windev mobile 2025 app on pcsofts IDE.
I have a camera control on a mobile window - and although it didn't function on the emulator - the window opened fine and it just showed a empty rectangle. Of course it worked fine on an android phone.

Suddenly, without doing anything, when I go now in a mobile screen, in the pcsoft emulator, it exits the app !!!
This happens with all examples that have the camera control ...
Any Ideas?

Printing/sending invoices with correct line sequence (no replies)

Mike James — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 23:52:08 +0100

I generate invoice as PDFs or files of various types, eg XML, CSV. I had trouble retaining the original line sequence as per the source transaction.

Typically I scan a data source of invoice headers, and within the scan I filter another data source for all the invoice lines for that invoice, then scan those lines to generate the output:

FOR EACH
- Using HFilter, filter the invoice lines data source for that invoice (ordered by invoice and linenumber)
- FOR EACH
- - Print the invoice report or create the output file

I tried 3 different ways to filter the invoice lines data:

1. FOR...EACH - did not return the correct set of data, even though a display of the data source in the debugger showed the correct set of lines.

2. WHILE HOut() - correct invoice set but the lines were in random order

3. FOR EACH where "saleid = '" + .saleid + "'" ON LineNumber

#3 worked correctly. The "where clause" created the correct subset of data, and "ON linenumber" retained the correct line sequence.

See [doc.windev.com].

This may be well known but not to me. Shared for anyone who can benefit!

Browser page closes by itself after a few seconds (previously was working) (2 replies)

mixgh — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 03:37:12 +0100

Hi,

My page closes by itself after a few seconds when it is opened. Can't seem to find the reason why. This is a previously working app. The current version is in production. I only realized this when I tried to update it with new features. The trace log is the attached screenshot.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks and regards

SQL Server and MARS (2 replies)

alex.kolaric — Mon, 16 Mar 2026 20:08:04 +0100

Hi,

Does anyone have experience with MARS and SQL Server when using native client in your Windev/Webdev application? Which connection string text should be used to force MARS usage on a connection? I have weird error message popping up on some of our clients workstations

"cannot create new connection because in manual or distributed transaction mode"

and it happens on simple HReadSeekFirst while transaction is active. The weird thing is that it happens on some workstations only. I would like to try to solve it with MARS.

Alex

[WB 2024] Pipe error in testmode (no replies)

pietvanz — Sat, 14 Mar 2026 15:36:24 +0100

Hi,

I have a problem when testing a dynamic site.
When I test a single page it comes up normally in the browser, but if from that page another page is called or a PageDisplayDialog then the webdev engine has a fatal error. The page shows up briefly, but then this error:

The WEBDEV application server encountered an abnormal internal status.
Internal code of error: CSCA256
D:\source\source.GP\225129\Release_moteurwebdev_202\srcAwp\CommunicationSessionClientAwp.cpp (255)

(21, ERR_INTERNAL)

An internal error has occurred.

Possible causes:
- General protection fault.
- Web server, application server, or application configuration error.
- Rights error (e.g. the user running the application is the wrong one or does not have sufficient rights).
- Error encountered when loading the application.
- In IIS, the guest user specified in for the website "Authentication" is different from the user specified in "Handler mappings".

De pipe is beëindigd. (109)

If I run the project there's no problem, except that I have to login and pick a menu option to run the page.
This is a real nuisance
I reported this to PCSoft Tech Support, but they said it was due to a change in Chrome and it will be fixed in future versions (of course:X)
As I don't intend to enter into the SAAS thing, I wonder if anyone had the same issue and found a worakaound or a hack?

Kind regards,
Piet

WX Security Key offer could be a trap. (2 replies)

Al — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 05:44:18 +0100

Hello All,

I have received some interesting information about the PCSoft Security Key offer.

"PC SOFT will introduce a "Security Key" solution that uses your current dongle and is associated with an annual subscription."

I am not sure if this refers to a current subscription type dongle or the conversion of an existing "use forever" dongle.

I would never trust PCSoft to load any code into my existing "use forever" dongles to convert them from "use forever" to "use while you pay"

The video on the French site mentions converting dongles so still not clear.

For me it is academic as I have no intention of ever going to the subscription model.

Regards
Al

Windev, Webdev versions 24 and AI (2 replies)

AadG — Wed, 11 Feb 2026 10:20:59 +0100

Hi all,

I tried several AI generators with different results. I decided to stick with versions (24), bexause ithey fill my needs.
Does anyone has experience with this and is the best generator to use with both versions of the PCSoft product.

I know that the versions of Windev 2026 I believe has built in AI, but for me it's not worth the investment considering
the new pricing.

Thanks for any advice.

Besta Regards,

Any Safe Method to Break PDF Password in 2026? (2 replies)

I have an important PDF document that I personally created and protected with a password a long time ago.

Getting out of Windev/Webdev (18 replies)

mixgh — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 23:34:44 +0100

Hi...
I know a lot of us are looking at various options for the "escape from WD/WB". Would be great if we could share our successes, hopefuls and dead ends. Let's share and help each other out. Many of us have been on the various WD forums for about 20 years, so I know we're not spring chickens. The learning curve for a new platform is killing, and a little guidance will go a long way in helping us avoid the hype and concentrate on the probable options.

Thanks

[WM 28] How do you make your app compatible with 16kb page size? (2 replies)

If so then how do you get it working? Thanks in advance

WebDev and AI (13 replies)

JP — Mon, 09 Feb 2026 20:57:17 +0100

Hi All

I have a large database of PDF and XLS files. Currently users can go and download files as they need. I was wondering if there was a way to build an AI front-end to that so they could ask questions of the AI which would then process the database of PDF/XLS files and return something useful.

So my question is; does anyone have some experience with adding an AI front-end aspect to a WebDev website? If yes, would you mind sharing some suggestions?

WebDev Connections Limit (1 reply)

MediOffice — Tue, 20 Jan 2026 01:28:09 +0100

I have a large medical practice management app in the UK built with WebDev. I run a Windows AWS server and a postgreSQL database. It runs extremely well. I have seen up to 300 concurrent connections on the server. The server has 32GB RAM and at peak is using about 60% memory and generally less than 30% CPU.

Does anyone have experience of large deployments like this in WebDev. I think my current growth will enable me to run for another year before I start hitting close to 90% memory at peak. I can then double the server RAM if needed. Is this a good idea? It's certainly a simple solution but I'm sure setting up a second server is a better idea.

I would welcome thoughts.
