REAL SQL Server To Leave REAL; Time to Switch to Valentina
I was not entirely surprised to read on the REALbasic NUG that REAL SQL Server would no longer be a REAL Software product but would go back to its original developer, SQLabs. Even with the bundling options available with REALbasic, a database product that cannot differentiate itself cannot survive. Now there is even a special offer for disenfranchised REAL SQL Server users until October 10, 2010. Continue reading REAL SQL Server To Leave REAL; Time to Switch to Valentina
[NEW][API] Valentina.CopyCursorToNewTable()
We introduce a new utility method Valentina.CopyCursorToNewTable(), which is able to save you hundreds of lines of advanced code in your ADK-based applications. This method added into major Valentina ADKs.
You can read detailed description of this new method here.
Linux dlls of Valentina now are signed by soname.
We have improve our Linux projects to use soname for vcomponents dynamic libraries. It will be equal to the name of version, e.g. 4.8.
This will allow resolve problems when on the same linux computer are installed Valentina components of different versions.
NEW TIP about Reindex Event to Improve Performance
Index fragmentation can cause problems with query performance. Indexes therefore need to be occasionally rebuilt. Read the full article in the “Valentina Performance Guide” document.
Welcome VistaDB .net Developers to Valentina DB
We recently heard that the company that owns VistaDB, a .net focused database system, has closed their office in Florida and looking for ways to sell off their database product. Paradigma Software invites VistaDB developers to give Valentina DB ADK.net a try – along with a 50% discount if purchased before September 1, 2010.
All you have to do if you are a VistaDB user is to order Valentina DB ADK for .net before September 1, 2010, and insert “VistaDB: YOUR SERIAL CODE” into the customer notes field to save 50% – get this ADK for only $99.95.
VServer now uses the name of executable as primary instead of ini file
PROBLEM IS:
Up to now (v4.7), a VServer on start searches for INI file in the own directory. Algorithm expects that only one INI file exists in the folder. And if few INI files present, then the first by alphabet is used.

V4NET and SQL-Binding of Pictures.
Starting from 4.8 build you may pass pictures as a binded value to the queries using V4NET ADK.
IOEncoding usage in V4REV
Assume there is some “not-latin” text (it could be russian or umlauts or something similar). And we have to store it to the Valentina database and then read it back.
[IMPROVE] FTP Folders for Valentina Products (32/64/OS)
Since we have constantly growing number of Valentina products, supported OS and now 64-bit versions, we have got quite big number of files for single folder.
From now we will change organization of a release folder. It will contains sub-folders
- lin32
- lin64
- mac32
- mac64
- win32
- win64
So you can easy locate sub-set of products required for your OS and Bits.
[NEW] 64-bit ADK added to MAC OS X: C++, Cocoa, PHP
We introduce our first 64-bit ADKs for MAC OS X:
- Valentina for C++ (VSDK)
- Valentina for Cocoa (V4CC)
- Valentina for PHP Standalone (VPHP)
It is clear that we cannot make V4RB, V4REV and such to be 64-bits because their IDEs do not support this.
Next our step in this direction, will be introduction of 64 bit ADKs for Windows, VSDK, VNET, …
New LogFilesLocation property
There is a new property – LogFilesLocation for both server and local.
It defines a folder where the logs should be placed in.
Default folder is “./vlogs”
MAC 64 bits – introducing vcomponents_x64 for ADKs/x64
Yesterday I have try to make installer of VPHP_Standalone_x64, which could be our first 64-bit ADK, and have realize that it is not good idea keep in the same /usr/local/lib/vcomponents both 32 and 64 bit DLLs.
