Rick outlines some very good points here. I would add this: When modifying out of the box Active Links and Filters, first rename the Active Link or Filter with the prefix or suffix, THEN copy it to the OLD (out of the box) name by removing the prefix or suffix. By doing it this way, if the

Jarl, I can confirm Axton's observations with C++ plugins, but only circa v6.x. Would you conclude from your logs that 7.1 Java Plugin is patterned after the Servlet lifecycle model? Is there any overlap of the Plugin JNI libs with the previous ARS-Java-client JNIs? Have you looked at the

Scott, You could avoid using a table field as well as pushing data into the configuration form. You could do this by creating display only fields on the parent form to contain the information you want from the configuration form. Then when initiating the filter guide set a display only counter

A very minor addition to all your responses. Make use of the Change History tab of the workflow, fields, forms etc when making any major changes. Always helps.. You do not have to dig up documentations etc if you have records in the Change History tab describing what changes and why they were

I'm not saying servlets were involved -- it just appears that the initialization logic follows the servlet lifecycle specification. I'm thinking out loud here to understand why the behavior may be different between C++ and Java Plugin, but am speculating that the Java Plugin JNI (which, I

I'm not sure how it could be more efficient than a server side table field and seems to require much more work. Rather than determining the next record this method already determines this for you as you are just looping through the table. We're talking about looping through 14 records, so I don't

I can almost bet I heard somewhere (possibly Remedy Support), a few versions ago (I think during V5 days), that allocating about 4 MB per expected concurrent web user is a fair algorithm to arrive at the expected web server memory usage. I can't see how that might have changed significantly since

Opening the User tool via VB?

That's true. For 14 records that might not really be a biggie. I remember using a server side table field for a record count much greater than 14 (but not larger than a few hundreds) where it would take about 5 seconds for an operation to complete. That's about the time it took to load that table

I am a big fan of packing lists for development processes. I would suggest that you create at least two packing lists. A) OOB objects that were replaced/changed/disabled and B) New objects that were added to the OOB Those two lists would give you a shot at being able to detect how your

Hi Matt, I could see why the first scenario did that. It's the VB app that has a handle on the called app, so when your app closes, so do all processes spawned from it. In the second...somethings missing and I can't place my finger on it, but, to answer your question, according to the KB:

Matt's is a very good suggestion. The very big pitfall that always lurks is when an OOB workflow object becomes something(s) else due to a BMC patch or upgrade. For example, suppose you have an OOB Active Link named OOB:ActiveLink1. Using a prefix, you create your custom version of the object

The trick with using VB is that you need to force the user to interact with the UT and take ownership away from VB. I do this in one of my programs by having an active link open a message box. This forces the user to interact with the UT and take ownership away from the program. Make sense? Mark
