  • Blog Post: NAV 2013: RTC crashes because of language NAS user

    waldo
    I use the Jobqueue as much as I can for automating jobs. It’s decent, stable, good, flexible. It makes sense, doesn’t it? But after installing a language pack (NLB and FRB – quite common in Belgium :-/) .. it didn’t seem the most valid opinion I had.. : my RTC was crashing 10...

  • Blog Post: The power of Variants

    waldo
    This blogpost of Arend Jan Kauffman reminded me of a topic that I wanted to write a very long time now. Namely working with Variants. Sometimes I get the remark: “what the hell are they useful for? “. And to be honest: Variants could be bloody useful in some cases. Cases to make stuff even...

  • Blog Post: NAV 2013: Implementing the Application Test Toolset

    waldo
    As you probably know, since NAV 2009, there is some kind of framework built in the C/SIDE environment that can deal with application testing.  Usually referred to as “Testing Framework” or “Test codeunits” or “Test Toolset” or “probably-some-kind-of-other-description...

    I noticed that a number of people just didn’t know this .. so let’s give it some attention. In one sentence: it is possible to import a filtered set of objects in stead of always importing all objects from a .fob file by using and filtering the Import Worksheet . I hear you: dude ....

    Before you think I give you the Oracle with this article … this is actually nothing but showing you a new feature in NAV2013. New? Not really .. but that's how Microsoft tells it :-). It wasn't there in NAV2009 RTC .. so it must be new, right? Well, not really .. because we already had...

    When you're a partner .. you deal with databases of your customers, right? At least - you should ;-). Usually, there is "some" security set up at the customers site. At least let's hope so ;-). It might happen that you want to copy a customer's database to your site, just to test...

    Oh yes oh yes oh yes .. :-). That was my reaction when Luc Van Dyck told me he was going to organize a new edition of NAVTechDays - only one year after the last one . And you know how I liked it. If not, read this blogpost :-). To recapitulate: NAVTechDays was one of the most professional conferences...

    Internally at iFacto , we have been working quite heavily on our infrastructure. And if I say "heavily" .. I mean unbefreakinglievable heavily. In a way: we threw everything out .. and we placed a lot in. But we only did this after going very deep in pre-defining about everything we could predefine...

    Damn .. It's so tempting to start writing about NAV2013 (and probably Microsoft would want us to do so...), but I'm not gonna .. (yet). Because quite some time ago, I promised in this post to go a little bit deeper in "working with multiple datasets" on Dynamics NAV RDLC Reports. ...

    When suggesting solutions for the Picture-problem in my blog about the OutOfMemoryException , I talked about a possibility to work with an extra dataset to provide a picture, separated from your invoice dataset.

    Since NAV 2009 RTC, live has become .. let's say .. more challenging regarding "installations", isn't it ;-). There are loads of settings, parameters and configurations you have to get familiar with (Delegation, SPN, SQL Server, Active Directory, Kerberos fluff, ...) before you're...

    I apologize for this piece of advertisement, I'm just too convinced that it can help you :-). It took us a while .. mainly because it's soooo busy at iFacto that eats away a lot of ReVision development time .. but it's here (actually for a few weeks now already - and new builds still...

    Last week, we organized a new session in Belgium about the cool stuf in NAV developing: .Net Interop and Client Extensibility . I didn't do this session, but Gunter Peeters (Van Roey Automation) did. I just knew it was going to be an interesting session, as Gunter is one of those guys that puts stuff...

    Actually, this has happened quite some time ago .. but I just didn't blog about it. Not because I didn't want you to know, only because I didn't want things to become too hectic.

    You probably don't remember the "Form Transformation Tool" (aka TIF-tool). Of course not, because we're all implementing RTC like hell .. and don't want to look back to the classic "Ice Age", do we? But indeed .. once apon a time .. there was a classic environment ....

    In my previous post , I mentioned a problem with .Net Interop, when you tried to use it with a SQLConnection. In fact, the System.Data hasn't anything to do with the source of the problem, but it was the namespace where I encountered it a few times, so I'm going to take that example to show you...

    At the moment, i'm writing an article on how to use .Net Interop to connect to other database. When doing this, I noticed that it wasn't that easy to use enumerations, which are in fact quite common in .Net. That's why i'm first going to elaborate on enumerations .. and then I will blog...
