<johannesV> is there no gnue-common*.exe in current releases ?
<johannesV> btami, can you please prepare gnue-common-0.6.exe ?
<reinhard> oh
<reinhard> johannesV: you can find them under "all releases"
<reinhard> they are named gnue-common-0.6 instead of gnue-common-0.6.0
<reinhard> so they aren't listed under "current releases"
<johannesV> ok, thanks
<ajmitch> reinhard: any requests for the debian packages? ;)
<reinhard> ajmitch: yes, on the mailing list
<ajmitch> where?
<reinhard> well - indirectly
<reinhard> somebody said he had to deinstall the packages and install the newest release to make something work
<ajmitch> and I meant if you had any packaging requests :P
<ajmitch> did he say he was using debian?
<reinhard> no
<ajmitch> he said 'distro-packaged'
<reinhard> but as we actually don't have packages for any other distro (AFAICT)
<reinhard> I figured it was debian :)
<ajmitch> User-Agent: Debian Thunderbird 1.0.2 (X11/20050602)
<ajmitch> looks like it might be
<ajmitch> considering that the release hasn't been out that long..
<reinhard> anyway
<ajmitch> so what changes do you want made?
<reinhard> hmmm
<reinhard> I'd like to see the split for common and forms
<reinhard> if possible
<ajmitch> that might not be a good idea
<ajmitch> having several binary packages that are only a few KB
<ajmitch> ftp-masters get grumpy about those
<ajmitch> since _everyone's_ Packages.gz gets bloated
<reinhard> hmmm
<ajmitch> forms I've changed to Depend on python-wx2.4 | python-gtk2
<ajmitch> I've just got to test out whether forms will pick up the right one at runtime
<reinhard> ok
<ajmitch> I suspect it won't :)
<reinhard> probably not
<ajmitch> it'd be nice if it could do ui driver fallback
<ajmitch> if import wx fails, then import gtk2
<reinhard> and the binary shouldn't be gnue-forms-wxgtk probably
<ajmitch> it's not any longer
<reinhard> ok
<ajmitch> I've renamed to gnue-forms
<reinhard> probably most of the bugs that have been reported to the debian packages are fixable (or already fixed anyway)
<ajmitch> quite possibly
<ajmitch> and I might have to dive into debconf sometime
<reinhard> it might be a good idea to start gnue-appserver as a service
<ajmitch> done with the last release
<ajmitch> it was mandatory to start it as a service, since you forced the use of /var/run/gnue
<reinhard> ah ok
<ajmitch> which I still have to fix up, however
<reinhard> I think you might just upload the new releases to sid, then I can download and play a bit with them and give you further feedback
<ajmitch> appserver _really_ doesn't like to start here if the db wasn't setup right
<reinhard> yes, right
<reinhard> and automatically setting up the db is a PITA when you don't even know what backend to use :(
<ajmitch> so I have to work around that, or somehow get a database setup in postinst
<reinhard> ... means you have to ask via debconf
<ajmitch> which would mean debconf magic to ask which db to setup
<reinhard> probably
* ajmitch sighs :)
<ajmitch> to work nicely out-of-the-box, means a bit more work I suspect
<reinhard> it basically means setting up a connections.conf for appserver
<reinhard> btw, it might be a good idea to set up a *separate* connections.conf for appserver
<reinhard> and pass it with --connections=....
<reinhard> because this connections.conf might well contain a db username and password for the backend
<reinhard> so it would not be world readable
<ajmitch> right..
<ajmitch> that quickly gets messy
<ajmitch> I'd have to have /etc/gnue/appserver-connections.conf
<reinhard> yep
<reinhard> and that would be debconf maintained
* ajmitch shudders :)
<reinhard> however, if that file exists, gnue-setupdb.sh will set up the db correctly
<reinhard> erm gnue-setupdb without .sh
<ajmitch> ok
<ajmitch> but I can't guarantee that the db server will be setup & running before appserver's postinst runs

<btami> hi afromm
<afromm> Hi, just got invited to join here instead of bothering the mailing list. I will look around a bit before I start to post my questions.
<btami> ok
<jamest> afromm: hello
<jamest> you're welcome to use the mailing list as well
<jamest> just if you need more immediate help we're usually in here
<jamest> vs waiting a day for us to answer
<afromm> yes, but maybe this is really the better place. At least it should be fatser. Thanks.

<afromm> comming back to my problem I posted to the list about iterating over a record set and how to get the field values of the records.
<afromm> The following code:
<afromm> for rec in blkTable.getRecordSet() :
<afromm>     print rec['fldName']
<afromm> just prints out 'None' instead of the actual values that are displayd correctly in the form.
<afromm> Can anybody give me a hint on what I'm doing wrong?
<jamest> i don't think that will work
<jamest> wait, i miss-read that
* jamest has never tried it like that
<jamest> what I do is
<jamest> for record in blkTable:
<btami> i'v tried this form, and worked for me
<jamest>   print blkTable.fldName.get()
<jamest> the bad side effect of this method is that the UI will iterate through all the records
<jamest> but in my case thats always under 15 records and the form autoclears so the people dont' notice :)
<jamest> never thought of the recordset method
<jamest> but in your method
<jamest> try putting in either
<jamest> print blkTable.getRecordSet() .values()
<jamest> to see what it thinks it has (should be like a dict)
<jamest> or something that isn't going to work so forget i said either/or
<btami> isn't it a list of dicts ?
<jamest> btami: might be, i don't recall the deatils
<jamest> also, on that print rec['fldName']
<btami> afromm: can you put your .gfd file some public place ?
<jamest> fldName is the name of the database field, not the form field, as getRecordSet is exposing a GNUe internal stucture to the trigger
<btami> afromm: and the sql definition of  the table it uses
<btami> or just make a new chanell for the paste...
<afromm> My problem was that fldName is the Name of the field in the block. requesting rec['field'] with filed the database column name everything works ok.
<afromm> Thanks for your help!
<reinhard> oh, hello afromm! nice to meet you here :)
<afromm> Hi reinhard, you where right in inviting me here, as you can see (in the log?) I got my problem solved.
<reinhard> yep, saw it

<afromm> I have a form conntaining a detail-block which is linked by a field in the master block (i.e. the master holds the id of the record in the detail table). Now I want to add a selection dialog for the detail record. I wrote a dialog that displays all the available records and let me select one of them. The field in the mastert is set all right, but I can't figure out how to update the form so...
<afromm> And again I need some help!
<afromm> ...that the new record is displayed. Until now the old record is displayd until I completely restart the form. Evrything I tryed with form.refreshDisplay() and so on didn't work. Any suggestions?
<jamest> i dont understand
<chillywilly> sup?
