Randy, Welcome.
I'm not aware of any other demos, but would strongly recommend reading the manual. Active4D's language extends 4D's in many ways that make web programming easier. Some of these extensions have been inspired by other languages and their usage is non-4D like, but they are very powerful. Active4D also extends many existing 4D commands. Learn to leverage the enhancements. There are dozens of String function enhancements. One example of a language extension are Active4D Collections. In other languages these are known as associative arrays, hashes, maps or dictionaries. You can think of these as arrays with named indexes, but they are more than that. Using Collections is fundamental to Active4D programming. I really wish 4D had collections. Familiarize yourself with the Active4D libraries that are supplied in the Active4D folder. These contain many useful utilities that you'll find yourself using and are useful learning examples. Other cool features are string interpolation and the String Format Operator (%). There is built-in Regular Expression support! There are many more. Look at the Wiki that is accessible from www.aparajitaworld.com (unfortunately it appears to be down right now). hth, -- Brad Perkins > Hello Active4Ders > > I'm just beginning to take a look at Active4D, hoping to use it to quickly > build a robust web interface that we will offer to our vertical market > customers. > > I've used 4D to create a fairly simple interactive (data entry) web site, > but I'm needing a lot more. > > Besides the Active4D demo, can anyone suggest other resources to begin to > learn and use Active4D. > > Gracious thanks, > > Randy Engle, Director > XC2 Software, LLC > mailto: [email protected] > > > > _______________________________________________ > Active4D-dev mailing list > [email protected] > http://mailman.aparajitaworld.com/mailman/listinfo/active4d-dev > Archives: http://mailman.aparajitaworld.com/archive/active4d-dev/ > _______________________________________________ Active4D-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.aparajitaworld.com/mailman/listinfo/active4d-dev Archives: http://mailman.aparajitaworld.com/archive/active4d-dev/
