Overview 5.5.x

Release 5.5.x has many new features for Application Designers, System Administrators and Users. To accommodate the new screens and new features, we have increased the minimum rows and columns in the client. For normal users (i.e., those not using Application Design) we recommend a size of 25 rows by 100 columns. For Designers we recommend a minimum size of 35 rows by 144 columns or one row/column larger than your largest Image, whichever is greater. If the clients are not using these screen sizes they will use the older screens.

Compatibility with Previous Releases

This release adds some new ILF commands (DEL ALL, SQL and EXITREAD) as well as the ability to comment a block of ILF. These features are not compatible with previous releases. If you use these features and install your application on an older release, then any process that uses the new ILF commands will not compile. If you have commented a block of code, older releases will not recognize this and treat the code as if it was not commented. If you avoid using these features, you will be able to develop under 5.5.0 and deploy in an earlier release, although 5.5.0 specific features (such as explicitly setting a column heading on a Table) will be ignored.

For System Administrators, we added an 'Inactive' flag on the User file. The Data/Design File management menus allow you to leave the Database, Application or Version blank so that you can select multiple Databases or Applications at once. We also added options to the Data File Management menu to copy data between databases and change FMS types (with/without data conversion). The Monitor application can not only show you what process the user is currently running, but also the parent processes so you can see where they came from.

Tables can be used in place of the normal SCAN displays.

Overview

Changed:
<
<
Release 5.5.0 has many new features for Application Designers, System Administrators and Users. To accommodate the new screens and new features, we have increased the minimum rows and columns in the client. For normal users (ie, those not using Application Design) we recommend a size of 25 rows by 100 columns. For Designers, we recommend a size of 35 rows by 144 columns. The following gives you an overview of the changes in each area. If the clients are not using these screen sizes, they will not use the new designs or be able to use the new features.

This page gives you an overview of the changes in each area.

 

Compatibility with Previous Releases

This release adds some new ILF commands (DEL ALL, SQL and EXITREAD) as well as the ability to comment a block of ILF. These features are not compatible with previous releases. If you use these features and install your application on an older release, then any process that uses the new ILF commands will not compile. If you have commented a block of code, older releases will not recognize this and treat the code as if it was not commented. If you avoid using these features, you will be able to develop under 5.5.0 and deploy in an earlier release, although 5.5.0 specific features (such as explicitly setting a column heading on a Table) will be ignored.

Line: 19 to 21
 
  • In most cases, we tried to combine GUI Attributes and Additional Attributes on one screen.

And more:

  • Documentation now accepts HTML text.

APPX 5.5.0 Features

This page provides an overview of the new features in APPX 6.0.


Overview

Release 5.5.0 has many new features for Application Designers, System Administrators and Users. To accomodate the new screens and new features, we have increased the minimum rows and columns in the client. For normal users (ie, those not using Application Design) we recommend a size of 25 rows by 100 columns. For Designers, we recommend a size of 35 rows by 144 columns.The following gives you an overview of the changes in each area. If the clients are not using these screen sizes, they will not use the new designs or be able to use the new features.

Application Design

In Application Design, we tried to identify areas where we could make designers more productive, such as:

  • A Multi Widget Editor (MWE) allows you to modify multiple Widgets at one time.
  • The Item Editor now shows you ALL item attributes on one screen so you don't have to switch between different dialog boxes.
  • In most cases, we tried to combine GUI Attributes and Additional Attributes on one screen.

And more:

  • Documentation now accepts HTML text.
  • Column headings & more in table widgets
  • Standard copy/paste shortcut keys in the Image Editor
  • Optional Child/Rules accessible from button definition
  • You can lock design of file to prevent accidental changes.
  • You can comment entire blocks of code
  • You can see the line numbers in ILF editor, and jump to a specific line
  • New ILF verbs – EXITREAD, SQL, DEL ALL
  • New API’s
  • Experimental – new style input for designing Input processes.

System Administration
