Re: How to Modify a column using SQL

Thanks for the info John. I'm not planning on going to v18 until it is
mature. I'm a little superstitious for even numbered versions!

Cheers

Just dot follow the relation name

$clients:=ds.Client.query()
$relatedmany:=$clients.ManyRelationLinkName

This produces an entity selection of the related many

ORDA RELATE MANY SELECTION

2019-12-05 Thread kculotta via 4D_Tech
Hello,

RELATE MANY SELECTION is a convenient way to get a set of related many records.
Is there a more succinct or efficient ORDA method than the following to do the 
same thing?

  // get Contracts for a group of Clients
ARRAY TEXT($array;0)
C_COLLECTION($col)

$clients:=ds.Client.query("Name = :1";"@"+Self->+"@")  // get the clients
$col:=$clients.toCollection("PriKey")  // make a Collection of Client Primary 
Keys ("PriKey";"..Value..";"PriKey...)
COLLECTION TO ARRAY($col;$array;"PriKey")  // make it an array of Primary Keys
ARRAY TO COLLECTION($col;$array)  // back to a Collection of Text 
("..Value..";"..Value..")
EntSel:=ds.Contract.query("to_Client IN :1";$col)  // search in the Collection 

Thanks - Keith CDI

4D Integration with FormStack or similar commercial forms tool API?

2019-12-05 Thread Bob Miller via 4D_Tech
Has anyone done a project with FormStack, which is a forms-creation tool?  My 
understanding is that FormStack allows you to create a form and drop it into a 
frame on a website.  When the customer fills out the form, FormStack can send 
the content to anywhere using its API's.

I'm interested in:

> What API did you use, and could you share any sample code?

> What issues did you address to direct the FormStack API to the 4D database?

> What firewall issues did you have to address to protect 4D?

> Do you have a 4D database outside the firewall, for purposes of collecting 
> the data?  If so, where is it hosted?

Or - do you have any analogous solution you've created with a commercial 
website sending data to your 4D database?

Many thanks for the sharing!
