Need for a simple login

Mon, 20 May 2013 10:20:54 -0700

How to implement a simple login interface for a mobile application?

The provided Authorization module:

1/ involves the concept of Roles, which is rather involved

2/ does not really explain (in line or in the documentation page) how it should be used:

- Where should the Module itself be inserted? In the <Mobile View>?? Elsewhere???

- Where should the components of the module be inserted, and what workflow should be set up to use them?

- How to authenticate from a web service? a database?? a resource file???

3/ does not (easily) allow to disable the Role capability, and just perform a yes/no login.

I tried to answer these issues by creating a new "Authorization" Tersus project and studying the logic, but it is far too complicated.

So I am looking for help to set up a simple login (yes/no) based solely on user/password, and redirecting to a logged-in-page (success) or a retry-page (failure).

In a first step I only need hard-coded credential, and in a later step authentication will be determined from a web service with WSDL interface.

Maybe this can be achived by hacking the provided Authorization module, but the best would be an existing, validated module.

Thanks in advance

Visual Debugging not working!

Mon, 20 May 2013 09:55:35 -0700

How does visual debugging work for mobile applications????

I tried in vain to follow http://www.tersus.com/#Id=5159, but once

http://localhost:8080/SalesDemo/?UserAgent=mobile

has been loaded, the following happens when typing javascript:startTrace() in the address bar:

1/ In Chrome (version 26.0.x), teh browser launches a Google (!!) search

https://www.google.fr/search?q=startTrace()&aq=f&oq=startTrace()&aqs=chrome.0.57j0l3j60.5148j0&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

2/ In Firefox (version 21.0), nothing happens... just the whole system (Windows Vista) seems to slow down...

Please provide guidance.

Modeling relation data

Wed, 15 May 2013 03:10:58 -0700

I'm evaluating Tersus and have to say that I'm impressed by the way of visual modelling applications shown here. All other "visual" programming tools I've evaluated are either some sort of toy language or paint-gui-and-code-the-logic IDE.

I'm reading through the Step-by-Step tutorial. In the Stage related to modeling relational data I saw an approach wich is based on program logic to model relations.

This approach has some shortcomings:

This is no declarative way of modeling the relation. You have to look through the business logic to discover the relations.
It has no implicit definition of referential integrity. The only way to do it is to define the database manually and declare some foreign key relations.
There is no type safety when resolving references. (To which table belongs the referencing ID field?)

Is there another -- more declarative -- way of modeling relational data?

I'm asking this because the missing declarative way may not be a problem in small apps like the one from the tutorial but I'm comparing this to the application I'm currently working on which uses about 800 tables.

Thanks in advance,

Helge

Switching between importer HTML pages

Mon, 13 May 2013 17:03:09 -0700

Hello everyone, hello David

Within a mobile application I have imported two HTML files (as explained in the Documentation), one for login and one for a specific display.

First I mention that when I insert one of the corresponding views into the <Mobile View> everything works fine, but as soon as I insert the two, the display gets corrupted. I wonder whether this is correct, and whether this is related to the issue below.

What I need is a mechanism for switching between the two views with an <On Click> control inside an existing HTML button. The solution given on http://www.tersus.com/#Id=5265 does not work here, because the views are imported.

As you can see on the screenshot, I would expect:

to initialize the view in some "Init Selected View"control
to perform the swith within the "Set Selected View" control of HTML View 1.

I couldn't work this out.

Do you have a solution?

Thank in advance!

web applications iphone 4

Sun, 12 May 2013 18:15:14 -0700

Hallo,

I've been using Tersus for a short time and so I'm not very expert of it.

I've made some web applications by reading the tutorial. They work on the browsers, mainly safari, but also Firefox.

My problem is to load them on my iphone (I have the IPhone 4). How can I use the applications I have saved on my laptop, on my iphone?

Thank you very much for the answer.

Alessandro.

JavaScript error when trying tutorial

Fri, 10 May 2013 03:45:08 -0700

I'm new to Tersus and wanted to try it out by doing the tutorial.

Now I am stuck in Stage 6. At the end when I will try out the change in the browser I select a row on the "Requisition Approval" view and click on the "Approve Requisition" button.

The a JavaScript error pops up:

An error has occurred: 'undefined' is not an object (evaluating 'this.selectedRow.viewNode.className=this.selectedRow.baseClassName')

Path: Requisition Approval

The status of the selected row is changed afterwards.

Looking in the JavaScript debugger there is no viewNode property in this.selectedRow object.

I'm using Tersus 2.1.20.

What can I do here?

Quick Hosting fails

Fri, 10 May 2013 02:20:07 -0700

I just made a fresh install of Tersus studio (Version: 2.1.8.2 Build id: 201205070419) on Windows Vista Home (French), and registered on tersus.com.

Then I imported several Tersus projects (eg. Backgamonn) and ran/edited them seeminglessly.

Then I wanted to use Quick Hosting, but it would never work: whatever the project, nothing happens after I press the Deply button.

An if I try manually the URL (eg. fabrice.tersus.com/Backgammon/) I get a 404 error (eg. HTTP Status 404 - /Backgammon/).

What am I missing?

Deployment Query

Wed, 08 May 2013 02:15:18 -0700

Hiya,

I am wondering what the preferred deployment method is for Tersus users.

I like the possibility of managing the applications on the server, but this requires the full Tersus Studio installation, including Eclipse: Has anyone looked into the potential security issues with this scenario?

If Tersus Studio could deploy directly to the server, without having to go through the process of copying the application over and creating the Application Context File, that would be great, as that would ease not only security considerations but also the need to have the entire environment running on the server and using up resources.

Inasmuch as you have created Tersus Studio, would Tersus consider creating a Server deployment package that included a base configuration (that included the JRE, JavaMail, JAI, Tomcat, HSQLDB, Driver and Tersus Server as known and working versions)?

I think ideally, the possibility of using Tersus Studio to remotely update/manage/etc the applications would be an ideal solution.

Are people mainly deploying in-house?

Cheers,

Luis.
