The OpenEdge Hive

Hi Guys,

Any tools (Free Hopefully) to revert *.r file back to *.w or *.p ?

Hello Everybody,

We are using both Dialog and Windows to design screen, and want to open
a Windows from a Dialog button call.

As Dialog cannot open Windows (WAIT-FOR issue), was wondering is it
would be possible to change Windows behaviour by code.
Meaning, using a parameter + inside code to handle : "Windows mode" /
"Dialog mode".

Please note for various excuses, we cannot afford to fully redesign one
screen from Windows to Dialog nor Dialog to Windows.

My guess was :
- inside 4GL code ? (but maybe AppBuilder won't appreciate)
- using .dll code ?

Config :

Hi All,

WinXP/Win7 ADM2:

Migrating one of my apps from 9.1D to OpenEdge. Hoping someone can tell me what became of the 9.1D function 'GetPanelFrame' in OE?

I'd been using it to determine the handle to the dynamic toolbar frame.

I'd then do some panel-frame size calculations and insert/manipulate toolbar buttons dynamically using 'CreateButton' function which requires the Panel Frame handle. See pseudo code below:

DEF VAR v-PanelFrameHdl AS HANDLE NO-UNDO.
DEF VAR v-Pix AS INT NO-UNDO.
DEF VAR v-Caption AS CHAR NO-UNDO.

I am using OpenEdge 10.2.B and need access to the DotNet Long datatype as well as the Byte array. Is there some documentation somewhere that shows me how to reference those inside Progress?

Is it possible to create an secure socket connection for posting data using:

CREATE SOCKET Socket$h.
Socket$h:CONNECT('-H ' + postData.Host + ' -S ' + postData.Port) NO-ERROR.

(Some background info: I need to make an connection with the UPS-server. This works but it responds with a http 400-error:

Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port.
Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please.
)

Anyone encountered this problem before? How did you solve it? Or do you have an idea in which direction to look for the solution.

Hi, All!
I defined shared vars in a class, then system showed error message "SHARED entities may not be defined in a Class or Interface." Can I create shared variable in the class?

I am looking at doing some encryption work in Progress and was wondering if anyone has any good reference materials on what is available in Progress? I'm looking at doing Asymetric Encryption.

I have been doing Openedge(10.1c) development on Linux(Ubuntu) for sometime now & I dearly miss OE Architect which was available on windows but not on Linux.

Just wondering if anyone here has been able to configure openedge plug-in with eclipse on Linux successfully ? if yes, then please do let me know the steps.

Curious Question: Can I access/call or use Progress objects from .Net(c#) code? (P/Invoke?)

Example: I'm programming an application in .Net and I have my business logic coded in ABL objects, I would like to instantiate and use the ABL objects directly from c#.
Think of it as an "reverse .NET Bridge" or a "Progress Bridge"

I currently work at a company that uses both .Net and Progress extensively.
We have business logic code in Progress as well in .Net. (this will not change).

Hello everybody,

I have been researching and have successfully called a new progress form an existing 4GL window, however, I have not yet found the trick to make the form a child of the window. Is this possible?
