I am currently developing a UWP application, I am very new to this platform and need some help.
Thanks for the help!
So I was able to write up a demo project.
You can find it on Github Here!
I'll quickly tell you about the sample, There are two solutions:
Quick and Dirty: This took the most time for me and I had to write up a lot of code for something very trivial. I don't recommend this way but this way is non complicated and straight forward.
Dynamic Content way (Recommended): Here, I've kept things extensible might be a little bit complex but it's more easy to manage and works much better than the first way.
Since you're using MVVM, I've followed the same.
Please Note: I haven't exactly replicated your model as I didn't know what to put in the UI and what all are the validations, but from the sample you'll be able to figure it out.
I hope this helps, in-case of any queries, feel free to use the comments section.
In the recommended solution your key area to control is just a single collection:
internal ObservableCollection<ComponentModel.IFormControl> FormFields => new ObservableCollection<ComponentModel.IFormControl>(new List<ComponentModel.IFormControl>()
{
new ViewModel.TextFieldInputControlViewModel(){HeaderName = "Name",PlaceholderText="e.g. John Doe",IsMandatory = true },
new ViewModel.TextFieldInputControlViewModel(){HeaderName = "Admin No" , PlaceholderText = "e.g. ABC123"},
new ViewModel.TextFieldInputControlViewModel(){HeaderName = "Phone" , PlaceholderText = "e.g. +32538349182" ,IsMandatory = true,MatchingPattern = #"^[\+]?[1-9]{1,3}\s?[0-9]{6,11}$"},
new ViewModel.TextFieldInputControlViewModel(){HeaderName = "Item Description", PlaceholderText = "e.g. My Fav Item",IsMandatory = true },
new ViewModel.TextFieldInputControlViewModel(){HeaderName = "Location Lost", PlaceholderText = "e.g. Alaska",IsMandatory = true },
new ViewModel.DateTimeFieldInputViewModel(){ HeaderName = "Date Lost",IsMandatory = true}
});
and you can add more types from inheriting from the interface IFormControl and just add in fields here. exactly as simple as it sounds when it comes to adding more fields.

I've got a lot of values in a legacy Wakanda datastore which I need to update to some new values. Is there a curl-like command in the wakanda data browser page that can be used to do a mass find-and-replace in a table?
If your dataclass is called MyDataClass and the attribute you want to update is myAttribute you can use the following server-side script :
var newValue = "new value";
ds.MyDataClass.all().forEach(function(entity){
entity.myAttribute = newValue;
entity.save();
});
You can also use a transaction if you want to commit or rollback the whole operation
I don't think there is a way to do a mass of find/replace in the dataBrowser,
But I suggest you to use a query in the server side that search the records with the value you need to replace, and then a loop on this collection to set the new values
As mentioned in other answers, you are likely best to loop over a collection. There is no concept of a mass replace in Wakanda like you see in many other databases.
var myCollection = ds.DataClassName.query("attributeName == :1", "valueToFind");
myCollection.forEach(function(e){
e.attributeName = "newValue";
e.save();
});
So a fake "person" data type might look like this:
var blankFirsts = ds.Person.query("firstname == :1", "");
blankFirsts.forEach(function(person){
person.firstname = "no name";
person.save();
});
I beg your solution to my script in PowerBuilder. I think it's fine but doesn't work properly.
Here's the script:
long ll_newrow
ll_newrow = dw_2.InsertRow(0)
dw_2.object.rectype[ll_newrow] = 'I'
dw_2.object.procyear[ll_newrow] = off_procyear
dw_2.object.procmth[ll_newrow] = off_procmth
dw_2.object.batchno[ll_newrow] = off_batchno
dw_2.object.pibseqno[ll_newrow] = pib_max
//dw_2.object.modifydate[ll_newrow] = id_modifydate
//dw_2.object.modifier[ll_newrow] = 'I-' + TRIM(is_modifier)
dw_2.ScrollToRow(ll_newrow)
dw_2.setcolumn("pibseqno")
dw_2.SetFocus()
Data in dropdown list that I've made in DataWindow doesn't show in run time, but it's fine in development.
You'll probably want to do a GetChild on the column in question, SetTransObject() on the DataWindowChild, then Retrieve() on the DataWindowChild. There are many ways to populate a DropDownDataWindow (I'm assuming it's a DDDW that you're asking about), but this is the most common, other than maybe AutoRetrieve which AFAIK isn't applicable when you only do an InsertRow().
Good luck,
Terry.
I'm using a CalendarItemType view to retrieve calendar items. The only items I care about are those that I've created and I know that they are all weekly recurring items. I'm able to get each individual occurrence and, from any one of them the recurring master item, but I'd like to narrow the scope of my search to just those items that would match my pattern.
I've trying using the Restriction property on the FindItemType to specify a NotEqualTo restriction with a null constant for calenderRecurrenceId. This caused my request to time out. So far I've been unable to load the recurrences with the FindItemType at all and need to use a subsequent GetItemType call when I find an event that is an occurence in a recurring series.
Here's the code that I'm starting with. The code needs to work with both Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010.
var findItemRequest = new FindItemType();
findItemRequest.ParentFolderIds = new DistinguishedFolderIdType[]
{
new DistinguishedFolderIdType()
};
((DistinguishedFolderIdType)findItemequest.ParentFolderIds[0]).Id = DistinguishedFolderIdNameType.calendar;
findItemRequest.Traversal = ItemQueryTraversalType.Shallow;
var itemShapeDefinition = new ItemResponseShapeType(
{
BaseShape = DefaultShapeNamesType.AllProperties;
}
findItemRequest.Item = calenderView;
findItemRequest.ItemShape = itemShapeDefinition;
var findItemResponse = this.esb.FindItem( findItemRequest );
Also, if you know of any good source of examples (beyond the ones in MSDN), I'd welcome them. I'm picking up someone else's code in an emergency and trying to learn Exchange Web Services on the fly.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, in which case I apologize.
You do NOT use the CalendarView - you use the normal IndexedPageItemView if all you want is Master Recurring Calendar items.
You use the CalendarView to expand the recurrences to individual items. However the compromise with CalendarView is NO restrictions are permitted besides Start and End Date. None.
You can search for a RecurrenceMaster by using the recurrence PidLid with an ExtendedPropertyDefinition. This works because, according to their documentation, "this property must not exist on single instance calendar items."
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc842017.aspx
// https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc842017.aspx
ExtendedPropertyDefinition apptType = new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(
DefaultExtendedPropertySet.Appointment,
0x00008216, //PidLidAppointmentRecur
MapiPropertyType.Binary);
var restriction = new SearchFilter.Exists(apptType);
var iView = new ItemView(10);
var found = folder.FindItems(restriction, iView);
I just confirmed this works, today, when revisiting some old code that works with Office365 EWS in the cloud.
Found only property you need is RecurrenceStart property. Because EWS has limitations it is not possible to use all properties in restriction. This one working as expected.
Reference: Find master recurring appointments
You can create custom searchfilters. If you search from specific startdate OR isRecurring property you have most easy way...(SearchItems returns recurring masters)
List<SearchFilter> searchFilterCollection = new List<SearchFilter>();
SearchFilter.IsGreaterThanOrEqualTo startDatumFilter = new SearchFilter.IsGreaterThanOrEqualTo(AppointmentSchema.Start, new DateTime(2012, 9, 16));
SearchFilter.IsEqualTo masterRecurringFilter = new SearchFilter.IsEqualTo(AppointmentSchema.IsRecurring, true);
searchFilterCollection.Add(startDatumFilter);
searchFilterCollection.Add(masterRecurringFilter);
SearchFilter finalFilter = new SearchFilter.SearchFilterCollection(LogicalOperator.Or, searchFilterCollection);
ItemView itemView = new ItemView(100000);
itemView.PropertySet = new PropertySet(BasePropertySet.FirstClassProperties, AppointmentSchema.AppointmentType);
FindItemsResults<Item> items = _service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, finalFilter, itemView);
I need to search for accounts in Microsoft CRM, using a wildcard search to get a "contains" search for the user's input. So if the user enters "ABC", I use ConditionOperator.Like and the value "%ABC%".
My question is, how would I search for a customer name that contains a percentage sign, such as "100% Great llc"? I can't find a way to escape the %.
Sounds like you're looking for a SQL-based approach so I'm not sure if this helps.
One way I know is through the user interface with an asterisk *
So if you want to find all of the accounts that have a % sign just type in *% into the account search.
Try using square blocks for special characters, for instance like [%]. So the condition would be: 100[%] Great llc or %100[%] Great llc%.
--EDIT--
This is in response to your comment.
Try utilizing the ConditionExpression, something like following:
//1. Condition expression.
ConditionExpression nameCondition= new ConditionExpression();
nameCondition.AttributeName = "AccountName";
nameCondition.Operator = ConditionOperator.Like;
nameCondition.Values = new string[] { "%100[%] Great llc%" };
//2. Create filter expression
FilterExpression nameFilter = new FilterExpression();
nameFilter.Conditions = new ConditionExpression[] { nameCondition };
//3. Provide columns
ColumnSet resultSetColumns = new ColumnSet();
resultSetColumns.Attributes = new string[] { "name", "address" };
//4. Prepare query expression
QueryExpression qryExpression = new QueryExpression();
qryExpression.Criteria = nameFilter;
qryExpression.ColumnSet = resultSetColumns;
//5. Set the table to query.
qryExpression.EntityName = EntityName.account.ToString();
//6. BusinessEntityCollection accountsResultSet = service.RetrieveMultiple(qryExpression);
Though I have played alot with CRM, but never came across special characters scenario. Let me know your findings. This article has some revelations.
I'm learning to use Crystal Reports (with VB 2005).
Most of what I've seen so far involves slurping data directly from a database, which is fine if that's all you want to display in the report.
My DB has a lot of foreign keys, so the way I've tried to stay sane with presenting actual information in my app is to add extra members to my objects that contain strings (descriptions) of what the foreign keys represent. Like:
Class AssetIdentifier
Private ID_AssetIdentifier As Integer
Private AssetID As Integer
Private IdentifierTypeID As Integer
Private IdentifierType As String
Private IdentifierText As String
...
Here, IdentifierTypeID is a foreign key, and I look up the value in a different table and place it in IdentifierType. That way I have the text description right in the object and I can carry it around with the other stuff.
So, on to my Crystal Reports question.
Crystal Reports seems to make it straightforward to hook up to records in a particular table (especially with the Experts), but that's all you get.
Ideally, I'd like to make a list of my classes, like
Dim assetIdentifiers as New List(Of AssetIdentifier)
and pass that to a Crystal Report instead of doing a tight link to a particular DB, have most of the work done for me but leaving me to work around the part that it doesn't do. The closest I can see so far is an ADO.NET dataset, but even that seems far removed. I'm already handling queries myself fine: I have all kinds of functions that return List(Of Whatever) based on queries.
Is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: OK, I found something here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms227595(VS.80).aspx
but it only appears to give this capability for web projects or web applications. Am I out of luck if I want to integrate into a standalone application?
Go ahead and create the stock object as described in the link you posted and create the report (StockObjectsReport) as they specify. In this simplified example I simply add a report viewer (crystalReportViewer1) to a form (Form1) and then use the following code in the Form_Load event.
stock s1 = new stock("AWRK", 1200, 28.47);
stock s2 = new stock("CTSO", 800, 128.69);
stock s3 = new stock("LTWR", 1800, 12.95);
ArrayList stockValues = new ArrayList();
stockValues.Add(s1);
stockValues.Add(s2);
stockValues.Add(s3);
ReportDocument StockObjectsReport = new StockObjectsReport();
StockObjectsReport.SetDataSource(stockValues);
crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = StockObjectsReport;
This should populate your report with the 3 values from the stock object in a Windows Form.
EDIT: Sorry, I just realized that your question was in VB, but my example is in C#. You should get the general idea. :)
I'm loading the report by filename and it is working perfect:
//........
ReportDocument StockObjectsReport;
string reportPath = Server.MapPath("StockObjectsReport.rpt");
StockObjectsReport.Load(reportPath);
StockObjectsReport.SetDataSource(stockValues);
//Export PDF To Disk
string filePath = Server.MapPath("StockObjectsReport.pdf");
StockObjectsReport.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, filePath);
#Dusty had it. However in my case it turned out you had to wrap the object in a list even though it was a single item before I could get it to print. See full code example:
string filePath = null;
string fileName = null;
ReportDocument newDoc = new ReportDocument();
// Set Path to Report File
fileName = "JShippingParcelReport.rpt";
filePath = func.GetReportsDirectory();
// IF FILE EXISTS... THEN
string fileExists = filePath +#"\"+ fileName;
if (System.IO.File.Exists(fileExists))
{
// Must Convert Object to List for some crazy reason?
// See: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35055093/1819403
var labelList = new List<ParcelLabelView> { label };
newDoc.Load(fileExists);
newDoc.SetDataSource(labelList);
try
{
// Set User Selected Printer Name
newDoc.PrintOptions.PrinterName = report.Printer;
newDoc.PrintToPrinter(1, false, 0, 0); //copies, collated, startpage, endpage
// Save Printing
report.Printed = true;
db.Entry(report).State = System.Data.Entity.EntityState.Modified;
db.SaveChanges();
}
catch (Exception e2)
{
string err = e2.Message;
}
}
