4D 18.5 and Monterey
Any word on how well 4D 18.5 works on Monterey for development and for 4D Server clients? Due to my use of Foundation for 4D development and our shrinking use of 4D in my office, I might not be advancing beyond 4D 18.5. Just wondering how it is work on the latest macOS. Of course I just moved for 4D 18.5 from v17 2 weeks ago to get compatible with Big Sur. *PAUL CHERNOFF* Director of Information Technology *Washingtonian* 1775 K Str NW Suite 600, Washington, DC 20006 w 202.862.3504 pchern...@washingtonian.com We are proudly a Certified Woman-Owned Small Business ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) New Forum: https://discuss.4D.com Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
4D 18.5 Server on M1
Will 4D 18.5 Server run OK on a Mac mini M1? I am preparing for upgrading from v17 to v18 and this will require replacing my current Mac mini 4D server which is stuck at macOS 10.13.6. ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) New Forum: https://discuss.4D.com Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
Re: Where is the trace/debug command?
Sorry, I should have been specific that this is a normal method, it is part of iLB package. But nothing special about it. The database code runs without problem if run as compiled. In iLB_Hook_Starup, a method used to run custom code to set values related to iLB and is nothing but comments, it goes into debug mode after the last line. I have tried removing the empty line of the method and the end of the last line, and then typed in what I deleted. It still goes into debug mode after running the method. In iLB_Hook_ObjectMethod it goes into debug mode on the line that has the command C_POINTER. I moved C_POINTER down a few lines and it went into debug mode on C_LONGINT. It makes me think there is something invisible in the Method that is triggering debug mode. I’ve cut the text, pasted into BBEdit, then copied from there and back into 4D and same problem. I can work around this problem by compiling and then running the app in compiled mode, but that is a bit clumsy. —Paul On Oct 5, 2021 at 3:00:01 PM, 4d_tech-requ...@lists.4d.com wrote: > Message: 1 > Date: Mon, 4 Oct 2021 14:16:22 -0700 > From: Kirk Brooks > To: 4D iNug Technical <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> > Subject: Re: Where is the trace/debug command? > Message-ID: > > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" > > It's probably not a trace but an error.

Where is the trace/debug command?
I am porting some 4D databases from v18.5 to v19.2. What is odd is that some iLB_Hook procedures are triggering tracing. But I look at the procedures and I do not see the Trace command nor the red circuit. And this never happened in version 18 or earlier. Is there now some invisible trace command? —Paul Chernoff ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) New Forum: https://discuss.4D.com Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
Duplicate Primary Key
4D 17.5 Somehow when I create a new record for a table it wants to assign an existing record’s primary key to a new record’s primary key field. How do I get the database to know that this value is already in use for this unique field and to start incrementing primary key values starting at a higher value? *PAUL CHERNOFF* Director of Information Technology *Washingtonian* 1775 K Str NW Suite 600, Washington, DC 20006 w 202.862.3504 pchern...@washingtonian.com We are proudly a Certified Woman-Owned Small Business ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) New Forum: https://discuss.4D.com Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **

GET FIELD TITLES
I apologize if I have posted this question before but I've been getting bounces previously. I run GET FIELD TITLES([Contacts];$afieldTitle;$afieldNums) and only the first 2 fields are returned instead of 17. This line used to work fine. I realize there are other places in the database where this command is used with the same problem. And iLB functionality isn't working properly for the same reason. All of the fields in the table are visible. Any suggestion on how to fix this problem. 4D v15.2, Mac OS X 10.10.5, Foundation 5.6, iLB 2.

GET FIELD TITLES problem
4D 15.2, Mac, Foundation 5.6. When I use the command GET FIELD TITLES on this database it doesnt' recall all of the field titles for the table, but only the for the first 2 fields. Otherwise the database works properly. I have tried repairing the structure but to no benefit. Any idea why only some of the fields are being read. Could Foundation's Virtual Structure be causing a problem (though I doubt since this is a native 4D command)?
