I was just looking at the server computer for another reason not related to 4D. The console window of 4D server was showing 202 user processes. There is/was 1 user connected, me. There were NO open user processes on the client side. I attempted to 'Abort' some of the processes - to no effect. I

Detecting field properties that can take nulls

2017-02-20 Thread bob.miller--- via 4D_Tech
Hello All, In troubleshooting a recent problem, I found that I had inadvertently unchecked "Map NULL values to Blank values" on a field definition. I'd like to scan the database to see if I may have made the same mistake for any other fields. I'm coming up short on a way to do that using Get

the way forward is EXPORT STRUCTURE, which gives you an XML representation of the structure in full detail. read http://blog.4d.com/detailed-analysis-database-structure/ includes a utility that converts the XML to JSON. > 2017/02/21 4:52、bob.miller--- via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> のメール: >

Hi Tim, Yeah, I was wondering about that error code too. It hadn't occurred to me the problem could be the transit lag between the client the server but that would account for what I'm seeing. Interesting idea about the wrapper. Maybe I'll make a specific error handling method for these sorts of
