svyUtils for Servoy 7?

Classic Servoy
1

The 1.1 version of the svyUtils requires Servoy 8.0.3 or higher.

Is there a way to get a 7.4.x compatible version?

Hi Bob,

You specifically need version 1.1 of this module? Or would version 1.0 also work for you
See https://github.com/Servoy/svyUtils/releases for the different releases.

Hope this helps.

Hey Robert,

Yeah, I downloaded that (and it’s fine) - but was hoping to get the latest version on 7.x.

I guess that’s not possible. Do you know if there are specific 8.x dependencies in 1.1?

Thanks!

Bob

Hi Bob,

It looks like the following modules have been touched by version 8.x :

  • svyCryptoExample (also has NG related packages in there)
  • svyUtils$customDialogs

The others all have a fileVersion that goes as far back as Servoy v7.2.

So if you want you can simply skip the svyCryptoExample, which looks like a true NG client demo, and edit the (hidden) rootmetadata.obj file inside the svyUtils$customDialogs module and set the fileVersion number to 44 (which is Servoy 7.3.x/7.4.x).
(see https://github.com/Servoy/svyUtils/blob … tadata.obj)

Hope this helps.

Hi Bob,

Yeah that is a problem with the older release.
It has since been fixed, but not in the binaries

I am going to make a new build tonight which has the latest change that were demoed today.
I’ll make sure that the file version is for 7 and up.
I’ll post everything on the thread about the tech webinar series

In the meantime, you can download the zip from src from the develop branch and just import as an eclipse project and it should work

Hope this help

Sean,

Don’t forget to correct svySearch for version 7 (same problem as Bob mentioned).

Thanks!

Bob, this was corrected in source code, but (news to me) the fileVersion setting doesn’t affect the .servoy export, which takes the version from Servoy Developer.
I re-exported the binaries from Servoy 7. Please retest

Kim, I did the same for svySearch which had the same issue.

NOTE: While the modules are compatible back to 7.4, The example solutions are still only 8.1 compatible and we have no plans to change that.

Thank you, Sean…we can now import svySearch into 7.4.9.

…the fileVersion setting doesn’t affect the .servoy export

Yeah, we discovered that, too! We even tried modifying the object’s Servoy version and build settings as well, but then got checksum errors on import. We then looked at the CRC and found it was encoded/encrypted. That’s when we realized there is more to exporting for earlier releases than simply changing the fileVersion. So, I am curious as to what you did to fix this?

Hi Kim,

I just exported from 7.4.
(Can’t change a .servoy file it breaks checksum)
