seems to be the same issue I found today with the extension from Delphi Developer/Mr. ganzqy. Looking also for a solution: http://forums.unigui.com/index.php?/topic/4210-pagesize-extension-for-unidbgrid/?p=22692

anyone had success getting this example running with UniGUI 0.97? I use 0.97.0.1076 and only an empty panel is displayed. Also with the other extensions shown here from Delphi Developer and Mr. ganzqgy. (?) brfc

great! As you are one of the JS-Gurus in this forum: how to not define the mask in the ClientEvents-properties (because the definitions are a bit hidden there for the developers), but in the Delphi-code, f.e. myform.create? Is this possible?

as Hayri wants to wait until 0.97 comes out - KNOCK! the author wrote: >> Note: This extension is beta and CSS still does not work in IE << But that was in 2011 as far as I see.... does your component work in IE?

ok - thats what I want to read. I think its still valid, and thats very fair. Farshad can raise the renewal price in the 4. year, because I think it will not convern me any more then, using UniGUI for 3 years and offering cool internet apps I will make thousands and thousand of $ to become a multi-millionaire by no later than 3 years

As far as I see one thing is unanswered: if 500 USD is the reduced price for the first 12 months, its clear that after the first 12 months we can extend the update/support period. For renewal the license after 12 months, will you charge the price of a new licence (1.000 USD) - whatever the customer paid for his initial license - or will there be an extension fee like 50% of the price of a new license (which will be then 500 USD)?

then at the moment a server with more than ....say....8 vCores or something and only used for one UniGUI application makes no sense, because the UniGUI application only uses a fraction of them, although 5 or 10 users are waiting for response? Is there any difference on that fact between Isapi and standalone application? That may mean that a (virtual) server with 8 vCores acts the same as a server with 16 vCores. I just do testing the heavy ones from Strato, Contabo, HostEurope and some others, and this would be an interesting point when rating the results.

ok, and one of my (virtual) servers has 16 of its kind..... ok, name them vCores. So Farshad please explain: Only if upgrading to XE7 an UniGUI application can make use of all cores due to restrictions of older Delphi versions? In the moment I stuck with XE3, but that would be the moment to upgrade to XE7 for the real world applications.

>> I wonder what the maximum the customer server supports the unigui without losing performace. << a difficult question. It depends mainly on what you want to do with your app. If the db server is located on the same server and you reserve 2 Cores for the db server but you have only a vServer with 2GB and 2 vCores - than it is likely that you run into troubles very soon. A simple rule: get the server with the highest possible ressources. If you don´t want to lease a dedicated server you will get a vServer. Old offers often stuck at 4GB or 2 or 4 vCores. If you want to start a real world application with 50 users, heavy PDF generating and downloading and heavy db access, look for the newest offers: you may get a vServer with 8 or 16 vCores, and 16 or even 30GB RAM. More and more providers do offer these higher class vServers, same priced as the ones some months ago, but even more ressources. In the moment I am testing a handful different vServers, and what I can say at the moment, there are really differences when testing disk access, RAM. CPU, networking. If you look somewhat deeper in the hardware, you can see that you can get vServers based on desktop hardware, or based on highclass machines. Also the virtualization software used is an important point. Or the setup of the virtualization software: on some vServers you even can`t check the free memory (really...), because the provider uses virtual memory to get some more vServers with the same memory, that said your vServer just only gets the memory he needs at the momemt and then the virtualization software takes the memory back. That said, your application on a vServer may really become more troubles than on a dedicated server. Go with a dedicated if you want to lease your apps to many customers. As a rule dedicated servers begin at 3 or more of the price of a high class vServer. But then you get a ordinary one. There the work even begins: think about backups, monitoring software, alert systems, antivirus and security software (see the new section of this topic in this forum) .... the support times of your provider (out at the weekend?) and many more. You see: start hosting a UniGUI application is easy, but giving the security for 99% uptime will become a heavy and not cheap task. To another point, testing of your UniGUI app. I am looking for some time now to do testing with 10, 20 or 50 users, but I did not find a test suite which can handle the ExtJS stuff in an automatic testing way. Look for a testing suite which can record some action with your UniGUI app, and then can playback the record scenario changed with some parameters on different machines. I did not find such a testing software. If anyone can give a hint here, that would be great.

yes, but the T1 micro instances do offer 613 MB RAM and one (1) vCore. For testing of UniGUI applications that may be enough, but you will get very soon resource problems with some concurrent users, db servers, not to speak of real world applications. Not enough resources if you want to offer your hosted application to your customers and don`t want to lease a new vServer for every new customer.

If you want to order a vServer Windows for real world applications, also take a bit of time to inform about the pros and cons of the mainly uses virtualization products, Hyper-V and Virtuozzo. Here are some links: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=864649 http://webhosting.about.com/od/Dedicated-Hosting/a/How-Does-Hyper-v-Vps-Hosting-Compare-With-Virtuozzo.htm http://mochahost.com/hyperv_vs_virtuozzo.php

For everyone who wants to get a new VPS Windows: please be aware, that most providers change their offers these days. The offers will go far better than before. So it is a good option to not select a contract length of more than one or three months to be able to switch to a better system in short time. Some providers do offer more RAM and more Cores for the same money, and also the option of SSDs which become important if your UniGUI application makes heavy use of database servers. Here in germany keep an eye to Strato and HostEurope which offers very attractive VPS systems these days. As far as I see contabo only do offer the SSD-option for the root servers, but I am sure they keep an eye at their competitors and will offer SSD also for the VPS systems in short time.

why wait for commercial version of UniGUI, why don`t publish them now? Thank you.

and be sure to give SexyButtons a try. I found the SexyButtons in UniGui do look very "sexy" if you want to have a more web looking GUI.

why? the actual version works as expected.

no.

In this article: http://mc-computing.com/databases/Delphi/WebServers/WebServers.html the author says the following: >> Apache will run CGI exe's and ISAPI dll's. However, because the ISAPI dll's are reloaded each time that they are called, they run at the same speed as an *.exe. (Thus, IIS is much faster.) << and from the Apache documentation of 2.4: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_isapi.html >> There is no capability within the Apache server to leave a requested module loaded. However, you may preload and keep a specific module loaded by using the following syntax in your httpd.conf......: << Is this still true for the latest stable version of Apache on windows?

see the callback demos installed with UniGUI and use for messaging http://forums.unigui.com/index.php?/topic/1808-humanejs-notification-system-for-unigui/ or http://forums.unigui.com/index.php?/topic/3832-uninoty-a-notification-smart-full-customizable-and-callbacks/

These webinars maybe of interest, especially the webinar on July, 17: "Deploy to Apache". http://forms.embarcadero.com/DeveloperSkillSprintsWebinarSeries

thank you to provide the working httpd.conf. file for apache. Maybe something to play with when comparing with IIS for real world project.

very good, thank you. It works on the IPad, but not on my Samsung tablet (android), I opened a topic for that in the mobil browsers section of this forum: http://forums.unigui.com/index.php?/topic/4328-pdfviewer-from-the-components-and-code-section-on-android-tablets/ .

a very nice piece of JS to show your PDF files with printing, downloading, sizing, thumbnails, really a handy PDF viewer: http://forums.unigui.com/index.php?/topic/4263-unigui-pdf-viewer-demo/ The demo works very well on the IPad, with printing, explicit downloading, sizing and so on...but not on my Samsung Tab (Android) with the pre-installed browser. The initial pdf is shown, but the other pdfs are not shown, loading takes forever. Any others who do see that problem on an android tablet? This is only true for the pre-installed browser - Firefox and Chrome work well on the android tablet.

cool buttons can be displayed with http://forums.unigui.com/index.php?/topic/3334-colored-buttons-demo/ and then try to combine the onclick event with the paypal code. That maybe only the answer to the initial question - not how to proceed the following payment response from PayPal.

.... or put the unidac components in a DataModule, but - important - FM explained just today that the DataModule has to be created from the UniGui Wizard, see... http://forums.unigui...t-demo/?p=21044 ...to be sure that every session uses its own DataModule.

great: from the demo feature description of the uploader: restriction to jpeg, jpg, and txt files, restriction to a maximum file size of xxx kB, --> that would be great - and just missing in UniGui file uploading features (up to 0.95). bad: $79 - Single Hostname Server (e.g. uploader.example.com) - 1 year $480 - Single Software-as-a-Service or Single Installed Application (unlimited domain) (includes one free support request) - 1 year --> so if you want to use it for commercial applications, this may pull your money out of the pocket very fast. And every year. I do not like these "single domain licences".
