Opening of SCANDUC 2025.
At SCANDUC 2025, representatives of Data Access Worldwide will share in-depth information from the DataFlex R&D team. Presentations cover the features in DataFlex 2025, which release is expected around SCANDUC. Nick Nikijuluw will picture what the DataFlex landscape entails, beyond the Win32 codebase, unfolding the ambitious plans for the longer future of DataFlex.
The DataFlex 2025 is loaded with many features. It makes life easier for new developers with the new navigation designer. Dynamic Dashboards will make your applications look a lot better. Regular Expressions help with advanced string manipulations and operations.
This presentation is very important and was presented by Bram Nijenkamp at EDUC in the autumn in Croatia. The DataFlex Technology Stack is a multi-phased, multi-year project that is revolutionizing the foundation of the current DataFlex product. After this presentation on Tech Stack, we will dive deep into the technical details. But first, let’s explore the goals, the implications, the vast opportunities and the choices the new technology will offer you in the not-too-distant future.
Frederik Rosenfjeld will show his experience with this exercise. As well as giving some tips on what is smart to do and what NOT to do.
The dream of running DataFlex code in your browser, ignited the Technology Stack project. It became a project of fully rewriting the foundations using the latest technology, putting DataFlex back to becoming a truly multi-platform environment. Share the excitement, get a peek at the current status of the project and learn how it will change application development with DataFlex - forever!
As a software developer, security demands continuous learning, updating and testing. Bram provides clear insights in authorization, authentication and verification. How does OpenID Connect and oAuth relate, and how does it fit DataFlex? Another important security topic discussed will be how to create a highly secure environment for allowing people to upload files to a web portal using the new Secure Upload library in DataFlex. And finally, how can you share highly confidential information quickly, using a very secure method.
Creating great looking applications with DataFlex has never been easier, especially since the introduction of FlexTron. But why stop there? Why not go that extra mile and start getting creative by adding icons to your UI to really make it sing. The use of Font Icons allows you to do just that, and you don't have to be a CSS or HTML expert either. Peter Bragg uses FontAwesome, the world’s most popular icon set and toolkit in his applications, and will demonstrate how you too can quickly and painlessly add icons to things like cWebGroup Captions, cWebTagPage tabs and even cWebList placeholder text.
Building REST Services has become such a trivial part in the world of software development. Learn how this new Library from Data Access makes the development of a full featured REST service with OpenAPI support so much easier.
With Dataflex we build applications fast! A constantly evolving studio helps us launch off the starting line with its wizards and drag and drop functions. After that, for those all important customisations, there is the tried and tested object-oriented programming language. In this presentation John shares some of the ’tips and tricks’ he uses on a daily basis in order to keep maintenance to a minimum, and therefore make more room for new features.
We meet in the lobby at 18:00 and go by bus to a special place where you will have a dinner.
It will pick us again up at 23:00.
Tired of users of your application reporting "It doesn’t work", "Nothing happens when I click", or a screenshot that doesn’t show what you need? Jakob will show how to build screen recording into your application, so the users can send you a video showing the problem. And do so, without users ever leaving your application, installing separate software or figuring out how to upload videos. All from DataFlex, using a (free) custom component that also lets you record from camera and microphone devices. This is smart!!
Learn how the JavaScript Engine and the CSS themes evolved in DataFlex 2025 with the usage of ES6 Classes and CSS Variables. They provide a more structured and readable way to define objects and manage inheritance in JavaScript. Learn what this means for your custom controls and your applications.
This freeware utility gives you easy access to information about tables in your databases as well as implementing a source code search function and related features. The tool will work with all DataFlex versions although it needs DF 24.0 to run itself.
How do you run a large, iterative process from your WebApp without running into browser timeout issues? Typically one might start a secondary background process and a timer to check when the process is completed. However, Peter Bragg's new cWebAppBusinessProcess class might just provide an alternative option. In this presentation, Peter will explain all and demonstrate how easily this new class can be incorporated into your existing WebApps.
No, Nils hasn’t ventured into the travel business! Instead, he’ll introduce the Holiday Function Library, demonstrating a creative approach to utilizing meta-tags. He’ll also share valuable insights on migrating open-source projects to GitHub, including lessons learned along the way.
Johan will run through the common use cases as well as some tips and tricks for more advanced queries.
In the near future, DataFlex Studio will be your “window” on everything related to your DataFlex code, be it in the Studio, or from fellow developers around the world. In this presentation Bram will showcase its current state of progress and in doing so he will focus on two new libraries: one for JWT (used for security, SSO, Secure uploads) and a one for graphing using GraphJS.
After many years of refactoring, Dynamic AI v7 is now back in a form that Carsten Sørensen, the architect behind it, will review on Friday. Get excited! It will be an adventure in the latest technology.
What can you do with the new Regular Expression class: cRegEx? Let's explore some of the possibilities!
The new dashboard is a very powerful feature that allows your users to customize their experience in the application without asking the developer to customize the application to suit a specific user group or a user. Johan will walk you through the structure and interactions of these new components, to give you a deeper understanding of the setup and what benefits it can bring to your applications.
Goodbye and see you at the next SCANDUC.
