Re: Determining if a 4D Write Object has been changed since load.

That’s correct. It’s not part of the Write Pro object. Initially I tried to add an attribute to the WP object, but wasn’t successful. I’m a ‘baby programmer’ with objects so I don’t know whether its possible to add attributes to a Write Pro object. My limited efforts failed. Tom > On Nov 12,

Stripe Checkout Experience

Anyone have any experience integrating a 4D web app with Stripe Checkout? I have sorted out the HTTP code issues for the redirect to their payment page, but am challenged around handling incoming Stripe events to support fulfillment in 4D. Tom Benedict

Re: Write Pro Hide/clear pictures when printing

This just a wild guess, I haven’t tried it, but if you put a “white” (opaque) picture into the logo, does the black rectangle go away? Tom Benedict > On Oct 30, 2019, at 06:32, Piotr Chabot Stadhouders via 4D_Tech > <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > We want to print a Write Pro

Re: Migrating to 4D Write Pro

Hi Doug, I’m pretty sure that the .4W7 format for 4D Write arrived long before v15, so you should be OK. You can confirm by creating a Write document on disk and seeing what extension is assigned. You can also validate your conversions by having both a Write Classic and a Write Pro area on a

Re: MySQL connection from 4D

The fact that it doesn’t require that you set up an ODBC Source on each machine you want to use it on is easily worth the price. Just pass it a connection string and you’re on your way. Tom Benedict > On Oct 28, 2019, at 12:49, Jim Labos - infobase via 4D_Tech > <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote:

Re: MySQL connection from 4D

The only thing I can add is to make sure your ODBC Driver, ODBC Data Source Administrator and 4D all match with respect to 32bit or 64 bit. I am connecting to a mySQL DB using 4D Native (SQL LOGIN) via mySQL ODBC 8.0 Unicode Driver and 4D v17R4. All 64 bit. HTH, Tom Benedict > On Oct 28,

Re: Responding to an HTTP Request

Thanks Narinder and Julio. That did it! Evidently the 4D Web Server knows where to send the header without being explicitly told. Maybe it has a queue? I guess it doesn’t really matter as long as it works. So it appears that I can use HTTP Client commands for ‘outbound’ REST calls and use Web

Responding to an HTTP Request

I’m just starting to do some 4D web development and have a simple question. The 4D app I’m working on needs to respond to a REST call by acknowledging it and sending a status (200 would work). When the REST call comes into the 4D Web Server I handle it in On Web Connection. That part is working

How to lookup a value within an object within an object

I’m new to objects. I have an object which holds a range of keys and values. Some of the values are objects. I figured I could just use the OB Get command with dot notation to reference a key in a nested object, but that doesn’t seem to be supported. Here’s my example: C_OBJECT(myObject)
