Re: XML UI protocol description

There is certainly "something" for what the 4gl code expects back from the UI :

            aubit4glsrc/lib/libui/ui_xml/uilib/xml/triggers.dtd

contains the DTD its expecting..

For whats sent forward from the 4gl to the UI - I think the easiest
way is to look at the C# code :

http://aubit4gl.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/aubit4gl/trunk/remote_ui/C%23/AubitDesktop/samp.cs?revision=890&view=markup

I'm let to beleive you can extract xsd/dtd from a serialized c# object
like this - but I've not tried recently
Let me know if that would help and I'll give it a go..


Its mostly fairly straightforward..
The 4gl program emits an XML stream the UI reads.
The UI responds with a TRIGGERED packet with the event ID and some data..

Actually coding it in a useful UI for anything thats non-trivial
though is "non-trivial"..
By that - I mean - if you want to be able to handle all current 4gl
constructs - its not easy - but if you have a specific app  - and you
want a custom front end - for example - with something like a POS
system - that shouldn't be too hard!
