Hey John,

Thank you!
That was a cool demonstration of another front end WEB UI with 4D as a backend.

iOS, etc.

Thanks to everyone for all the responses!
I put the macro at the end of this posting.

Thanks Jeff and Julio. Funny, I thought I’d double-checked case, but apparently
not well enough! As soon as I changed it from “orderby” to “orderBy” it started
working.
BTW, I finally turned on object notation in my database and have started using
object notation as well as collections directly
Cannon,
If the statement in your code reads exactly as you posted then the error is
in v16r6 syntax checker :-)
The collection member function is ‘orderBy’, capital B. That’s why you get
a runtime error, because ‘orderby’ does not exist.
At this point 4D does not manage class typing properly, so
Yep - you're right. I was thinking of the other syntax that uses a constant.
Does the debugger give you any clues if you trace it?

Hi Jeff,
Yeah, the ending quote must have been converted by my mail app. It’s a proper
quote in code.
I _think_ the asc should be inside the double quotes. But I’m just going by the
examples found at:
http://doc.4d.com/4Dv16R6/4D/16-R6/collectionorderBy.301-3690504.en.html.

Well, you have a curly quote in that line of code - maybe that's just a mail
artifact?
Should the asc be inside the double quotes?

I’m having trouble with the collection.orderBy() command working. Not sure if
it is me or a bug. I’m using 4D v16r6, 64-bit, on macOS with this line of code:
$cSortedFrames:=$oPage.frames.orderby("position.zIndex asc”)
In the method editor everything colors correctly, including “orderBy”
The Picture Library is still in 17b, but you can only add a new pic to by
loading it from a volume. Pics in the library can still be assigned to form
objects.

Is the Picture library depreciated?

Hi,
you have to open the *32bits* 4D v16 version and to export your picture
library. This is the only one way to get you pictures back.
Then, one by one replace the call from a file coming from your ressources
folder.
Easy, but take times. Or get help with QS_Toolbox ;-)

Take a look at this Tech Tip and its link to Tech Tip 76775:
http://kb.4d.com/assetid=77713
The code must be run the the older version of 4D, the one compatible with the
depreciated picture format.

A simple way to ensure you are not matching within strings is to split the
method into lines and then on each line collapse the strings so they are empty.
You only need to do this on lines that have

HI all,
If anyone downloaded the Xojo/4D demo files from my presentation during the

Hi,
I haven't a macro but a tool that try to answer to this point (not only).
It works on local ($), variable (without $ or <>) and global (<>) variable.
Manage $ and <> variables is pretty easy, standard variable, more difficult.
So, this code works with method of all objects and cross declaratio
Bob:
Another thought to watch out for.
As you know in some cases 4D names some of it’s own things starting with a ‘$’.
For example a Process name can be named starting with a ‘$’. If you have
strictly named local variables those should be easy to filter out.

Bob:
I would suggest if you are going to write something this far, why not make it
so that it will declare all local variables for you, and remove declarations
that are no longer needed. A great time saver. Of course to go that far, there
needs to be a strictly enforced naming convention.

Hi Bob,
I don’t have a macro for you, but I’m curious to know why asking the compiler
to check the syntax isn’t enough?

Hello,
Has anyone created a macro to check a method to make sure all its local
variables are declared?
I've thought about undertaking such a thing, but as it probably involves
getting into regular expressions, I've been looking forward to doing this
with some dread.
