I tried to send an email, but I always get an error.

So I try it here:

Your tool looks very interesting.

Until know our work was focused on windows desktop apps with databases. I have to check for a solution to extend an existing system with a web interface for editing.

All my business logic is in Delphi, so IntraWeb could be a way to go. But since I already built my own server code arround Indy components for more static websites, your Web Builder could be a way to go.

Do you have some examples, on how a Web Builder application communicates with a HTTP server?

If you have a demo/beta version, I would be interested to look at it.

Thanks.

Best regards

Christian,

I don't believe there is a beta yet. Tim is the only authority on this info but last update was that he expects it to be ready by October.

As to communication - it's really just Javascript so usual communication methods should all work.

Since you're building the front-end using the web builder it would simply issue HTTP requests to your back-end web server.

Back-end web server (which you can write in anything from PHP,. to NET to anything else you prefer) would then just respond with data (no markup there) and ideally in some format that's easy for front-end Javascript to consume - for example JSON , XML etc.

Assuming you have Delphi  Enterprise or Architect you could write the back-end with Datasnap and REST so it just publishes your web services functions and then use web builder for front end. But as i mentioned you dont' need Datasnap - back-end is just web service so you can write it in anything - front and back are independent.

<< I tried to send an email, but I always get an error.

This error is due to the Sender: or From: mail header not matching that of
the mail server domain that is sending the email to our mail server, so our
mail server thinks that the email is spam and rejects it.  What mail server
are you using for sending out the email ?

<< Do you have some examples, on how a Web Builder application communicates

An EWB application uses a TServerRequest object to communicate with the web
sever on the back-end.  This object is able to issue GET/POST/etc. requests
to the web server, and the data is transmitted and received in whatever form
you want - key/value pairs, MIME-encoded, JSON, XML, etc.  So, essentially
you need to come up with the various methods that will be serviced by the
back-end web application running on the web server, and how the data will be
transmitted back and forth.  After that, it's simply of matter of designing
and coding the UI.

We will have a version to evaluate after the release in October.

Hi Tim,

Is EWB still going to be released today, or has the release date slipped?

It's slipped a few weeks due to my not being able to work on it for a couple
of weeks in September.  I'll be updating everyone in about a week when I
have a better idea of what is left to be wrapped up.

That's understandable.  Thanks for the update.

No it isn't - he's going to miss my birthday and I had it set as a present

Let's just hope it doesn't become a Christmas present.  I'm really hanging out for this product, especially since RADPHP is such a disappointment.

Oh no, that definitely won't be the case.  It will be a little rough when it
is first released in terms of feature set, but our products usually are.
They get polished over the first year of use.

It's 31 Oct in my part of the world, but still 30 Oct in the US. Will there be an announcement on Elevate Web Builder in two (US) days time?

Here's hoping.
