About DB, what do you think about mORMot ? https://blog.synopse.info/?post/2023/08/24/mORMot-2.1-Released And Zeos (included in msegui-widgets)? And msegui-db? All seem to use the same root databases... ________________________________ De : vasi vasi <funl...@gmail.com> Envoyé : samedi 26 août 2023 00:25 À : General list for MSEide+MSEgui <mseide-msegui-talk@lists.sourceforge.net> Objet : Re: [MSEide-MSEgui-talk] dropdownedit tdropdownlisteditlb I miss Clipper soooo much! These days, we have Harbour instead (https://github.com/harbour/core), but there is no time for it anymore... When Delphi appeared with its Paradox engine and DBI, Clipper lost relevance to me. But I long for its simplicity. Anyway, Typhoon Relational Database Engine, does it for me these days, for small and fast little projects. Foe complex and huge applications, Firebird and PostgreSQL are better suited. On Fri, Aug 25, 2023 at 10:08 PM Fred vS <fi...@hotmail.com<mailto:fi...@hotmail.com>> wrote: Hello Sieghard. Of course your samples are more than welcome. AsI have already warned, msegui DB is new jungle territory for me. The last time I worked with DB, it was with Clipper (a pseudo-compiler for DB3) and all seems to have a few changed since that heroic days... 😉 @Med, for the name of fields, maybe check the datasource used by the dropdownedit. (I have to jump into msegui-db, I dont know....)

Indeed. > (And of course it would need to create those data and yes, it is boring > work) That's THE problem - whoever would want to do such things? But - if you took the trouble to provide a _specification_ of data you wanted to use in your demos, maybe that could be done by some code? BTW, if you think of time series of more or less random data, I _could_ perhaps provide some "interesting" samples. Could a section from energy collection values from a PV system do? Or voltage recordings from a battery test stand? Or simply "arbitrary" consumption values from some arbitrary facility? Of course, these are all time series, including integer and real values, randomly some strings and other data formats. You had to specify the transfer format (SQL, csv, xlsx?) and expected size. The selection will be done in such a manner as to allow usage for time series graphing, but nothing as to what they mean or apply to will be accessible. As I wrote, I DID embark on a new "project", a more or less universal data base browser for (my) posgresql data, and it's even mostly done. Due to some quirks of, probabely, fpc itself it cannot access all data yet, as the data base routines don't know about some postgresql data types. These are, as far as I found, enumeration types and time intervals. They are simply returned as "ftUnknown" without any data, and there seems to be no way to access them or get more information about them. That's blocking my way now. -- (Weitergabe von Adressdaten, Telefonnummern u.ä. ohne Zustimmung nicht gestattet, ebenso Zusendung von Werbung oder ähnlichem) ----------------------------------------------------------- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, S.
