  1. If you want the user to be able to customize a report, or build a new report from scratch via a web page, you must build a custom report designer using html/css or UniGui components. It would be hard to do.
  2. Fix Error Insight.. Oh God the squigly lines, they hurt so much!
  3. Not easily. You can use html in the caption though if I remember correctly. So you can use an img tag to add any image to the caption. This doesn't work in VCL mode unfortunately. I believe it is actually more of a limitation in what image types you can add to VCL buttons than it is a limitation of Ext JS.
  4. From - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_isapi.html It will not work on linux.
  5. Use TUniURLFrame and put the url to the pdf in the URL property.
  6. I was thinking about what possibilities there are for running the same uniGUI app on several virtual hosts mapped to the same ip. I want to be able to display different data for each virtual host. Is it possible to see what host name the user has input into the address line in his browser? If so at least for a standalone server it should be pretty straightforward to do. IIS might be a different story. Edit: I have done some testing, and it seems like this will work. The UniSession host parameter seems to contain the host header of the http request. In theory I should be able to use this information to trigger which back end data is presented to the user and even have separate authentication options for each host.
  7. The dll is not sent to the client, so it does not matter how big it is. It does not have any effect on the performance if you reduce the dll size. You are probably wasting your time trying to fix this non-issue.
  8. Google translate for the win.
  9. Just talked to a guy from our distributor. He confirmed a new edition this fall, but didn't have an exact date yet. Edit: He sent me an email. He says August or September. Nothing unexpected obviously.
  10. Not sure what you are asking. Are you refering to storing data on the client, like in a cookie, which is then used to fill out the form? QuickReport works as well. It is a bit troublesome in ISAPI mode though. It is better to separate the reporting out into a background service that the web interface calls. None. You can only use the components supplied with UniGUI. There are a couple of example extensions made by users, which you can download in one of the other subforums, but no thirdparty packages. Keep in mind that this is still beta software, although it is stable and featureful as it is. The key thing to understand is that the components are designed to use the Ext framework from Sensha for the web part. I believe that the goal is to wrap as many Ext controls as possible in UniGUI itself, leaving little to be added by third party developers. To create a custom component, you would both have to implement the custom VCL part, as well as an web implementation from scratch. Quite a chore, I would say, and I don't see much reason to do this. Right now the idea is to keep as high feature parity between the VCL end and the Web framework as possible, but this could possibly change. There has been some discussion about possibly losening the focus on the VCL framework, in order to speed up development of the Web part, since this is the part that most people actually need. The VCL part of Unigui primarily serves as a way to design the Web layout of the forms. The people that actually plan to deploy both a VCL and Web version of their applications seem to be not that many compared to how many that only needs the Web framework. I should let Farshad answer that one.
  11. In our company we just talked about our Delphi upgrade plans. Now it seems there is a new version of Delphi every year after Embarcadero took over. Has anyone heard any roadmap for the next edition of Delphi after XE2? New features? Estimated release date? We are still running D2009 and I am beginning to see some real incentives for upgrading. Especially since I am using generics a lot now and the D2009 generics implementation is somewhat rough around the edges as places.
  12. Browsers can never access the client file system! This is a deliberate browser limitation (Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, Chrome, doesn't matter which browser) to ensure client security. As others have suggested, you can make files available for download, but it is the users choice to download the file, by clicking on it and saving it and the user has to manually double click the file to execute it afterwards. It is impossible to automate this from the server code.
  13. Well it seems at least one person wanted to browse server files. The reason for the impossibility of browsing the client side file system is that it is a browser technology limitation. It is not something specific to uniGUI in any way. It would be a major major security vulnerability if server code could access client files, so html/javascript simply doesn't allow it. There has been talk of a limited javascript api for it, but nothing solid has materialized.
  14. Just do what you would do in a regular VCL app. Use findfirst, findnext, etc.. There are no shell components in uniGui.
