In my project this now works just fine (so far ... limited testing ...) - I get the timestamps, which I need so that the files in the folder can be compared against files previously downloaded. In this particular project, the files are all images. I wonder if that makes a difference? Pat On 21

do you need time stamps? if it makes the process simpler could you use an MD5, or other hash to compare the files. > In my project this now works just fine (so far ... limited testing ...) - I > get the timestamps, which I need so that the files in the folder can be > compared against files

Hi, I’m working with a pretty big database, with about 120gb of data and about 45 million records over about 250 tables. This database has been in use for about 20 years and is growing ever faster. I guess you could call this a gripe but I don’t understand why, if a table has several indexes,

What is spooky is that nobody seems to be 100% behind the ServerNet architecture. This means that if we want 64 bit support, we have to go with a potentially troublesome network layer. Paul > Le 21 avr. 2018 à 01:30, Timothy Penner via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> a > écrit : > > Hi

From everything I've heard, the new architecture will be a huge step forward in performance, especially for larger deployments. There's no question that push is better than poll when you have thousands of processes trying to communicate (or not) with a server. I'm really looking forward to

7-Zip Unpacker?

Hi Everyone, I am being sent some files that are "deep" inside a 7-ZIP archive. That means when you open them with the 7-ZIP GUI tool (7-ZIP is kind of like WinZip), you see a folder, then you open the folder, then another folder, then...then..and about 6 levels deep there's a couple of text

I just wanted to point out that one can not expect a fix for a "bug" that is classified as standard behaviour. (I am not in charge of bug classification) I would encourage you to make your case for regression on TAOW. I did not see "use an old build" being suggested as a workaround, which might

Hi Keisuke, Nope, no different cases. It is that very bug report ACI0096897. This bug report was created following my TAOW report. The issue was confirmed to be reproduced with v15.4 and it was OK with v15.3. Precisions: on MaxOSX 10.12.4 I get the error with both 15.3 (public and HF1) and

FWIW, on 4D 16.3 32-bit on MacOS 10.11.x server, using the new network layer caused multiple ghosted users every day. Using 4D 16.3 64-bit server, the ghosting pretty much disappears (one particular user still ends up ghosted multiple times), guess I should check their version of 4D. Jim Crate

it is possible that we are referring to different cases. ACI0096897, which has been classified as "standard behaviour", is about Internet Commands issuing a specific FTP command, and a specific FTP server responding to that command with an error . nothing has changed in Internet Commands, it was
