For most production serveur, their is a frontal behind the tomcat and the public url cannot be know by convertigo.
But Convertigo need to know its own URL access (endpoint) for many operations.
Frontal can be configured to set special header to help the Convertigo to retrieve its own URL.
This isn't not always possible.

But a new property can be set to indicate the public endpoint url and used when defined.

Convertigo must be Continuous Integration [CI] compliant.

To do this, gradle a is common and flexible build tool.

The Convertigo Gradle Plugin should be able to load an export a project to a car file.

Use the plugin in the build process to generate base templates.

Another features will come later.

Kind of enhancement for the Mobile Palette, copy / paste of Mobile Object Builder and so on.

The splash.bmp is committed with the version in the image.

It could be nice if the gradle update the splash image with a task.

If it's too complicated, just let the major number version X[.y.z]

A Convertigo project is saved to a huge XML, one row by Convertigo Object (dbo).

It's easy to merge for distant objects (different sequences, connectors) but in case of conflict or change, on a single dbo, it's very hard to understand the meaning.

The idea is to skip the properties with default values and also to use the YAML instead of XML to reduce the verbosity.

When we use a full sync database, clients have to be sure that the database on the server is not reset. Otherwise, all documents held locally in the client database will be pushed back to the server. To prevent this we implement a Database revision number.

This number is automatically updated each time a RESET transaction is executed on the server. The revision number is held in the _design/c8o Design document.

When the client replicates the database, we first have to see the server _design/c8o revision number and compare it to the local _design/c8o. If they do not match, the client will automatically perform a RESET on the local database before syncing, resulting in a clean client database.

This process is to be done automatically by the SDKs.

Create a sequence:

• add one single-valued variable and set a default value
• add one multi-valued variable and set a default value
• add an inputVar steps (output mode set to true)

Execute the sequence : the result is OK for both variables.
Reload project an execute the sequence: the result is KO : multivalued variable is not present (null)

Values are correctly saved in .yaml, but incorrectly loaded from .yaml into bean.

• Swagger upgrade to 3.xx
• Custom json schemas generation from xsd
• ...

Because the / isn't a good character for Docker Tag or S3 path (generate a folder).

Xerces write 🚀 as �� and this is forbidden (other xml reader report that).
So, if you put a rocket in your project (and many other special caracters) your project will be saved as invalid and you cannot open it again.
This is true for all things that write XML in Convertigo.
Some workarounds : write in UTF-16 / patch Xerces / use Saxon to write.

Compilation errors because of double declarations

For defaultTitle (Day Title) and defaultSubtitle (Subtitle) string properties, user is able to choose not set (false). The calendar diplays false and should not.

• OR the implementation of the action (CalendarPickerAction.ts) should ignore those properties (when value equals false)
• OR the description of the action (ion_objects.json) should be modified by adding values:[true]

We should ship PDFbox Jars in Convertigo Server run-time dor support for the lib_PDF project

convertigo/engine/src/com/twinsoft/convertigo/beans/mobile/components/dynamic/actionbeans/CloseModalAction.ts

Is containing Garbage from and improper merge and has to be cleaned up.

A new action bean to close Modal windows is needed.

New documentation is based on Jekyll, so the beans properties should generate markdown files for the https://github.com/convertigo/convertigo-doc repository.

Hi Everybody,

Like Eclipse workspace that can use a project outside of the workspace, Convertigo should do the same.

We use a JxBrowser 6.19.1 (chromium 60 based) that use a 32 bit version on Windows 64 bit.
With the new JxBrowser 6.21 (chromium 64 based), the 64 bit version is available for Windows.

Maybe some other improvements :

• 6.20 release note
• 6.21 release node

Missing lib or placeholder for those JDBC drivers:

• mariadb
• db2.jcc
• jtds
• mysql
• as400
• postgresql

Once a user is authenticated on session, we only need to check for same user/credentials rather than execute the Auth requestable again.

Extra markers sample (see /*Begin_c8o_function:CTS1547465225317*/):

	CTS1547465225317(page: C8oPageBase, props, vars, event: any) : Promise<any> {
		return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
		/*Begin_c8o_function:CTS1547465225317*/
                     /*Begin_c8o_function:CTS1547465225317*/
		page.c8o.log.debug(event ? event.toString():'no event');
		resolve();
		/*End_c8o_function:CTS1547465225317*/
		});
	}

When we close the Studio, the dialog to save modified projects pop twice.

It should happen once.

We need a new bean for tooltips for desktop applications. We can use the https://www.npmjs.com/package/ionic-tooltips for this.

Unfortunately, this package works by adding attributes to an existing tag, and MobileBuiler generator is currently not able to do this.

For example, we can have a new key in the ion_object.json objects such as :

	"parent-attach": true,

To indicate that the attributes described should be attached to the parent bean.

In this case the object should be

Must update TPL version to fetch version

• c8osdk-angular-caf: 1.1.6
• c8osdk-angular: 2.2.6

You can create a sequence called SMTP and another one in same project called SmtP but the same sequence (first one created) always execute whatever sequence you choose.

Windows only ! Components: Application, Page, CustomAction, CustomValidator, Style.

Steps to reproduced:

1. Edit a page class and add a new function between functions markers.

       /*Begin_c8o_PageFunction*/
	myDebug(msg) {
	    this.c8o.log.debug(msg);
	}
       /*End_c8o_PageFunction*/

2. Save and Close editor.
3. In the Projects view, copy/paste the page.
4. Edit newly created page class, scroll down to the function : extras lines have been added to code.

Exceptions:

• not cached sequence having a RemoveSessionStep
• not cached transaction using context.requireEndOfContext = true;

Eclipse Photo is released and we could use it instead of Eclipse Oxygen.

Also add the TS plugin.

Looking for child nodes on a self closing tag (<tag />) ends with an empty NodeList as variable value.

A non self closing tag (<tag></tag>) ends with a non empty NodeList which contains one Text node with an empty string value.

When bench testing URL mapper, the counter "sessions currently in use" remains at zero

Build 01025-feature-3-UrlMapper_v2-7.6.0-beta

On server version version 7.6.0_beta (build 01230-feature-3-UrlMapper_v2-7.6.0-beta), if we copy a project xxx.car in project workspace and start the server, the project is not deployed.

There is an error:

If you to call a sequence from test platform, with a file as variable parameters this will not just returns the file name without, the path. Upload is not done.

To prevent from this issue you can trigger C8oLib button into Execution mode, run the sequence, then trigger XML button and run the sequence.

With version Convertigo version 7.6.0_beta (build 00886-feature-3-UrlMapper_v2-7.6.0-beta).
When we deploy a project, the project is not visible on the projects admin page, but the projects are correctly deployed and can be used.

A 'void' transaction is a transaction which do not need connector to retrieve some data.

GetData bean (FullSyncGetAction) is not correctly supported in source picker.
"get" checkbox is in the Design_document>view tree.
When checked the listen generated is computed with 'ddoc' and 'view', should be 'docid'.
Marker is not supported too.

We need an admin panel to show all current session in convertigo and foreach session, the client ip adress, the authenticated user, and any other usefull information. ( as seen with opic).

CustomEvent is used to handle generic (wildcard '*') events coming from any sequence called in the project. This is the best way to handle any errors generated by any sequences in a centralized manner. For example, any sequence called within an unauthenticated session will return an error. The customEvent can catch this error and display for example an error Toast message using a dataAction.

The admin Connection part show the number of session and a table of sessions.
If the session table is displayed, the number of session should be the number of rows.
The Delete all sessions button should also remove contexts (session less).
