Hi, there are plenty of commands to ... Multitask You could use a while - end loop to wait for a response and you could introduce a Timer to break the loop if it's a 'time out' e.g. WHILE MyResponseVariable = "" END

Re: Price Increase - 2 years ago

Hi, there always has been a price difference between upgrade prices during a certain period after announcement and later. Usually, the difference is even more than 10%. The upgrade period for the French products has ended already! However, as we can see in v28, the unification of French and English products has advanced quite a bit and I suspect that there will be no "French" and "

Hi, most of the label printers do have their own programming language (per manufacturer)! There should be a "Programmer's Manual" available for that printer. Use Google .. as an example:

Re: WX28 and HTTP usage - 2 years ago

Hi Rubén, the translation did not work in this case ... Hi, I have an application that queries the content of some official sites to display it to users. Up to version 27, the HTTP functions and variables in WM and WD worked correctly. With version 28, apparently because they have upgraded to OpenSSL 3.0, this no longer works when querying many servers because they are not properly updated in

Re: WD27: Ploing! and Good Bye! - 2 years ago

Hi infos, for me, this procedure would take too long. I just do a copy of the project code if changes had been made there. The project code is the only part of the project which is lost - because I simply do not know where to find it in the broken project folder.

WINDEV 28 - 32-bit - 2 years ago

Hi, until WINDEV 25 we used a WINDEV 32-bit installation in order to use the "11-compatible RAD" generation. Starting from version 26, the 11-compatible RAD did not work and showed a few fundamental errors in the result of generation. In versions 26 and 27 one could install a 32bit version of WINDEV. In version 28, there seems to be no way at all to install the 32-bit version of WIND

Re: WD26 Crash: Project description -> [OK] - 2 years ago

Hi, I just had a similar problem about 2 months ago. I had to start a new project with the same name, copy the analysis (take the directory, don't copy the files separately!) first and then all of the windows to the new directory. The biggest problem of that procedure is the project code. You should backup your project code each time you're changing it.Otherwise you have to copy the pro

Re: Making HFSQL Server available outside the local network - 2 years ago

Hi, this is quite impossible. Either your HFSQL Server has a public IP address on the internet or it is within your network where you could access it by the computer's local IP address within your network. Your server has to have an accessible IP address, that's the rule of the game.

Re: Making HFSQL Server available outside the local network - 2 years ago

Hi, there are no ideas whatsoever necessary. You can install your HFSQL C/S on most Linux Servers and on Windows Servers as well. Access is by IP-address + port (usually 4900, but any other possible).plus User + password.

Re: Find out dir database in HFCS - 2 years ago

Hi, naturally, there's no way to get at the directory of a database. Let's assume, the database is running on a Linux server, what to do with the directory info? You could, of course, use a stored procedure in order to find out the database's directory.

Hi Al, no, I'm not going there ... for me, it's too early in the morning to take a cold bath! First step is to create an empty project with the same name as the defective one Second step is to delete the directory MyProjectName.ana of the new project and copy the MyProject.ana of the defective project into it.

Server is awfully slow - 2 years ago

Hi, our server has a defective disk drive (it's a mirrored one) which has to be changed in today's afternoon. There are 2 Tb of data on it and it will take some time until the re-mirroring has been finished. Expect to experience slow response times until this job has been finished.

WD27: Ploing! and Good Bye! - 2 years ago

Hi, just to tell you. Until yesterday evening I used WD27 working on a big project. Today's morning things look bad. Whenever I'm starting this project it starts and then after 10 or 15 seconds it gives a "ploing!" and disappears. No WD27, no project. Without any chance to interfere. Since this happens once or twice a year it's nothing new to me. The strategy is to

Re: How to open user groupware database? - 2 years ago

Hi, according to our own tests, HFSQL is one of the fastest databases amongst the competition! We have Wx-customers using HFSQL databases with up to 1000 permanently connected PCs and tablets with database sizes of several gigabytes at very acceptable speeds.

Re: Polynomial interpolation - 2 years ago

Hi, for polynomial interpolation you'll need at least three points to connect with a parabola! There is no interpolation between two points alone, that would be a straight line!! If you have those three points then you can find the necessary formulas on the web. If you understand German, there is a nice explanation on YouTube The full theory in German is here

Re: LST PCSOFT - 2 years ago

Hi, DeepL translates French into a readable German or English. In the past, there have been plans to publish an English LST but somehow ... The greatest obstacle to translate an LST into English or German is the fact that it's available on glossy paper - not in PDF - only.
