Fed up with Alpha - problem with server side on mobile

[I-windo]

Hi,

Please, can anybody explain why xbasic works fine on dialog initialize event but doesn't works on click event.

The funny things is, was fine on trial version few weeks ago. Now stopped, no reaction when button is clicked.


e.control.test = "Fred" works on Dialog initialize
e._set.test.value = "Fred" doesn't works on click event or others.

By the way. Java script works perfect. Problem appears just on mobile

Many thanks.

OnDialogInitalize is a server side event and xbasic is the language to use there. onClick events are client side and only use javascript. Both examples above are xbasic and will not work in any client side events.

It looks like you're trying to set the value of some control in your onClick. Take a look at {dialog.object}.setValue(); for that.

so, why xbasic works onClick or others events everywhere except on mobile app?

Do you have an example of some xbasic that works in an onclick event that I can try? ...I think your mistaken.

normally I'm using javascript but hire I would like to read date from server using noClick or onChange events. Thing is this worked fine when I used Alpha Anywhere trial version.

Simple example


dim tbl as P
dim vcode as c
dim vcheck as c

vcode = e.dataSubmitted.Scan_Result



tbl = table.open("[PathAlias.ADB_Path]\products")
query.filter = "code =" + vcode
tbl.query_create()

e._set.link.value = tbl.id_product
e._set.test.value = tbl.name
tbl.close()

works, but not on mobile

You can use xbasic on onclick BUT you need an ajax callback to do it. The ajax callback executes the xbasic on the server, but you still make the request to perform this action by clicking.

Re: Fed up with Alpha - problem with server side on mobile

this is the ajaxCallback made automatically.

{dialog.object}.ajaxCallback('','{Grid.RowNumber}:all','serverside_778b68234c1b4315aa2c40516f75adbf','','_getData=true');


Question: why this doesn't work as mobile app?

Re: Fed up with Alpha - problem with server side on mobile

have you published your data files to the server?
your code will work if you publish the data to the server. the webserver does not have the dbf files to check. publish the data files to the server and see if the system works.

Re: Fed up with Alpha - problem with server side on mobile

I published all files many times and no effect.

it works, my mistake. I set up wrong IP address in PhoneGap settings. Sorry for it. I love Alpha again

Have you tried doing this.

1. On left side of your UX, under Code, click Javascript functions
2. click action javascript
3. create/edit javascript action
4. Add New Action
5. call your action jsMagicHere
6. Edit action
7. create the ajaxcallback here

Now back to your button

1. open click event
2. action javascript
3. inline-javascript
4. {dialog.object}.runAction('jsMagicHere');

I did this really fast, but I'm pretty sure this is correct. Obviously you can use a name other than jsMagicHere but whatever you use, you must use it with exactly the same case sensitive spelling.

Yes always have to be careful with your publishing. I have been doing this for years and always confuse myself LOL.
