...there was a bug within the positioning of popup windows (modal and modeless). It did not occur in most situations but if it occurred it was quite annoying: the popup did move while using it.
This was the reason for publishing a in-the-week-update... There is no other thing contained in this fix than the popup-fix.

...any hints on how-to-reproduce are highly appreciated. Pls tell us if you find some "pattern" for reproduction...
Björn

...the default way is "by polling", which is supported by standard. We do not have an example yet in the demo workplace but will add one within the next update.

Background: we want to keep to http as transfer protocol as close possible as communication between client and server. And we do not want to keep connections open for a long time (no "pushlet").

But: for special situations (in which also special things are allowed...) we/you can define a client side Java component which is called by the server side application directly. Imagine the client opening a mini http server on its own (as part of a component) and the server sending an http request to the client which informs the client to reload data or do anything else. Of course this is something to think through... opening a mini client side http server must be done with care always and must be in synch with secutiy restrictions within the network.

What is your opinion. "Polling is enough" or "need something to be called" on client side (e.g. http server)?

Hi Christian,

we can reproduce - but "only" if the popup is opened from a popup itself. Is this your case, too?

Björn

PS: we did a update to the popup management (popups sometimes lost their position when being re-opened), this seems to be a side effect. Nothing to do with you.

...today's update contains the following impovement: when using float/double/bigdecimal as format for FORMATTEDFIELD then you can define "dec1","dec2",... in the FORMATMASK field (see value help). The formatting will be corresponding.

Björn

...is available in DevZone of http://www.CaptainCasa.com.

ooops,

you are 100% right! Bug in the HT* components... will be solved short term (asap, early Monday update). Your sever code is correct, change on our side is required... Sorry!

Björn

...just checking...
Unknonw element warning is not relevant.

Hi,

from next update on you can define the number of digits so that numbers are displayed in the way "###.###.###,##" (or ###,###,###.## or ###'###'###,## dependent from Locale). With the prefix/suffix we are still fighting...

Björn

Does not sound to be too far from being resaonable...
We'll check...

Hi,

I just doublechecked: the version 20080818 is correct, the eclnt.tld tag library contains the "drawoddevenrows" attribute. From my thinking it must have to do with "your" installation.

Could you please do the following: stop Tomcat, get into your deployed webapp (e.g. server/tomcat/webapps/<yourwebapp>) and remove the eclntjsfserver.jar file. Now start Tomcat, open a layout in the editor and presse "Reload server".

If this does not help: please check the eclntjsfserver.jar within your eclipse project (<project>/webcontent/WEB-INF/lib). Is this one the same as the one used in the webappaddons directory?

Björn

OK. We'll check...
Björn

...do you get this stack trace always or only with specific layouts?
Björn

...could you double check if you did upgrade your application? Please check <webapp>/eclntjsfserver/version.xml. Thanks...

Hi,

I was asked this several times, so I write something down here...:

There are three ways of starting the client:

1.) Web Start: in the JNLP file you can configure the heap size. Check the following description of JNLP elements: http://lopica.sourceforge.net/ref.html, there are attributes max-heap-size and initial-heap-size.

2.) Applet: currently by default 64MB, you can upgrade for all applets in the Java Pluging configration ("Systemsteuerung").

3.) Direct Start: pass system parameters, e.g. -Xmx256m -Xms128m

With applets there is a big improvement for Java 1.6 Update 10 (currently beta). Then you can apply settings for individual applets.
