Re: Object field storage: Questions and alternatives

one more thing, it is not incorrect to do something like { "\u0066\u006F\u006F":"\u0062\u0063\u0072" } instead of {"foo":"bar"} it's an extreme example, but it happens all the time in non-ASCII JSON. I may prefer one over the other, but really I don't care, and nor should I care, because it

Re: Object field storage: Questions and alternatives

Hello, I think it would not be telling the full story if you just focus on how UTF-16 takes double the size for standard ASCII, and therefore uneconomic. and I am not speaking because UTF-16 actually takes less space than UTF-8 for Japanese text. one must take into account that standard

Re: Packages-building an installer

I believe there are some nice applications that makes the process easier, but you can still use basic command line tools to deploy a built 4D desktop application for macOS. if you want to create an installer package, the steps are: 1. sign the application and move it to /Applications (locally)

Re: revelation! - Choose

"Choose" is a useful tool in specific cases but I would not use it everywhere. 1. unlike Case of~End case, Choose evaluates all expressions. for example you can do something like Case of :(Count parameters>0) //do something with $1 :(Count parameters>1) //do something with $2 :(Count

Re: Object Field Questions and Comments

I don't think there is any difference between what you call text and binary, what you report sounds more like the difference between UTF-16 and UTF-8. technically, the 2:1 ratio you describe is variable, but I understand for all practical purposes in ASCII, you could say that it is pretty much a

Re: 4D v16 Table/Field numbers

That is right, you can prevent recycling field numbers by with the "ADD TRAILING" feature http://doc.4d.com/4Dv16/4D/16/ALTER-TABLE.300-3201314.en.html In any case, a field created with a recycled number will not contain values from its former life if you compact the data file. > 2017/07/03

Re: Set Print Option clarity needed

printing has always been a global operation. after all, it is the application that is doing printing, not the process. so if you OPEN PRINTING JOB in a process and hold (TRACE for example; just close the progress window on Mac) then call SET PRINT OPTION in a different process, you get the

Re: 4Dv16 VM app still not playing nice with Finder

the primary file that 4D should open is always the structure file, not the data file. that said, if you insist on drag and drop of a data file (which is wrong), you can use the On Drop database method. http://doc.4d.com/4Dv15/4D/15.4/On-Drop-Database-Method.300-3274338.en.html and $0:=-1 to
