I also want to name the possible tarps and pitfalls with the use of the the program.
With the Aggregation, Subtypes and foreign-key only one-attribute-primary-key per object are supported. An object is identified only by one attribute.
With empty tables the insertion of the first Tuples is possible only with the command buttons save (diskettes-icon).
The data in a form are sent only after the change the Tipple-position (with navigation buttons) or by the command button save.
There are problems with operations (Delete, Change, Create), they become only a visible after the action reload. The condition that the data will not could be current by the red-colored command button reload indicated.
The number of open SQL-connections is limited system-specifically.
Only once the Widget (Multi-Column-Listbox) for the announcement of foreign key are initialized while opening the form. If the condition of the objects should change at which the foreign keys point, it is not indicated.
The forms which can be used with Aggregation separately are opened, however, the foreign keys are indicated as a normal Widget. This can manually inFormEditor Are changed, however, it is not shown by form assistants automatic.
Form-links functioning if one does not point at the root-form, the foreign key, however, in a children's form is. See Tutorial (form Professor link on assistant). Such FormulaLinks need a special treatment which was not programmed yet.
You can specify some options by starting FormServer.
FormServer -- [-help] [-debug] [-viewonly] [-ignorexmlpar | -noconnectdialog | -connect connectpar | -loadmacros macrofile | -openform formname | xmlfile]
Activate some menus for debugging: SQL-Monitor, XOtcl class-browser, Tk-Window Browser, interactive mods
The database contens can be only viewed. No delete, modify or insert operation are allowed.
Ignore all parameters codded in XML file.
Do not show database connect dialog. All parameters for database connection should be specified in XML file or by -connect option.
load a Tcl-script after initializations.
Specify database connect parameter. The parameters are codded as TclX keyed list.
-connect "{interface mysql} {user root} {dbank test} {password geheim} {socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock}" |
Open a form after initialising.
All option must be tipped after --. |
./FormServer -- -debug -viewonly -connect "{interface mysql} {dbank uni} {user root} {socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock}" -noconnectdialog -openform Student uni.xmlforms |
