There are times when you create a web page with many html inputs. Creating the get-value() and variables for the logic of the program can be tedious and time consuming. This routine can help you generate the code automatically.

Simply feed it the HTML page (javascript and speedscript doesn't mean anything to it) and the output file you want the code to be contained in.

/* Given a file name of an html containing file, identify inputs and */
/* generate get-value and def var statements for them.               */

define input parameter InputFileName as character no-undo.
  

OEUnit is a unit testing framework for Object Oriented ABL (OOABL). OEUnit is intended to help write and run repeatable unit tests.
OEUnit is similar to JUnit and other xUnit-based unit testing frameworks.

Upon reading the blogs at computerworld.com (or infoworld.com - I can't remember) I came across a PDF report on safe coding practices (which can be found here http://www.safecode.org/publications/SAFECode_Dev_Practices1008.pdf ).

While the PDF has some ideas on management oriented safe practices, it does delve a little into safe practices regarding technology. What it doesn't is how it applies to ABL coding.

Notpead++ is a great open source programmers editor. I've added it a support to Progress 4GL / ABL, so you can enjoy syntax highlighting and syntax folding.

Use Ed4W as a code editor for Progress, including syntax check and intelligent code expansion.

I'm not sure where this should go, but it is part of a recent set of releases on PSDN code share, some of which had to do with Eclipse so I'm putting it here for now.

This is a couple of items from PSDN.

These are some links published on PSDN Code share to provide the components of Eclipse which one might use in association with OpenEdge Architect.

In the AppBuilder there is a propath compiler – of sorts. It is more like a collection of paths and it is up to the programmer to sort it all out. Once you move onto another project – that's right, you loose all those configurations should you need to come back.

This is something distinctly missing from the web based programming tools too. There doesn't seem to be a tool that will walk up and down the propath looking for HTML to convert and .p/.w's to compile. I have encountered applications with so many files in them, the File Tools in
