Genero BDL / AI tools to generate BDL code

Last post by Jim Murphy - April 11, 2025, 10:33:53 PM

We have a push to use AI tools like CoPilot to help generate 4gl code. Obviously this is a hot topic these days. I'm wondering who has tried using tools like CoPilot to generate code and how much success you have had.
Any tips on how to get better results?
Any other tools or models that work better?

Thanks!

Hello,

In our opinion, the solution in EXCEL application is complicated.
Try watching the video with the filtering example again.
The video shows, how to enter a condition for a list (TABLE).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ljh4EQczyVg

1. the user clicks on the column 'Nazev'
2. the column header is highlighted
3. the user writes the first string of the condition "poji"

https://app.screencast.com/Pb8Cy2NKbsySm

4. if the user confirms the condition (presses ENTER), the condition is applied to the list of values in the table
5. the condition string "poji" is displayed next to the condition entry field

https://app.screencast.com/pn7YVV5nHZU9c

6. the user clicks on the column 'Mesto'
7. the column header is highlighted
8. the user writes the second string of the condition "praha"

https://app.screencast.com/dN53fGNXiuYOA

9. if the user confirms the condition (presses ENTER), the condition is applied to the list of values in the table
10. the condition string "praha" is displayed next to the condition entry field

https://app.screencast.com/OEb1YP2PUY9Vg

The result of entering the conditions in this example is something like:
nazev MATCHES "*poji*" AND mesto MATCHES "*praha*"

Best regards,
Ernest

GAS and GBC / Re: Genero Application Server ...

Last post by Olivier Eckert - April 10, 2025, 12:00:39 PM

Amy,

I apologize, one of the worakround I suggested was wrong: "Or modify your web services "*.xcf" file(s) to prevent them from starting automatically, and restart the dispatcher to reload its settings."

Because in the GAS configuration file *.xcf when the <START>0</START> is set to 0 (='zero') you get the problem. Please set it to 1, and the problem disappears.

Here is the documentation about the START entry in XCf file: https://4js.com/online_documentation/fjs-gas-manual-html/#gas-topics/c_gas_configure_start_service_on_gas_start.html

However, we recommend upgrading to GAS 5.01.02 and avoiding touching the GAS configuration file ("*.xcf").

GAS and GBC / Re: Genero Application Server ...

Last post by Olivier Eckert - April 09, 2025, 07:11:17 PM

Hello everyone,

The new package GAS 5.01.02, which fixes the problem, was released today. You can download it from the "Download" -> "Products" website menu.
https://4js.com/download/products/

Another Warning: If you work with Genero Studio 5.01.01 on Windows, it includes the GAS 5.01.01 version. We recommend installing the new GAS 5.01.02 and setting up the GST installation to work with it.

Here is a step by step to achieve this task:

Install GAS 5.01.02 in a directory (we will call it <my_gas-50102_path> )

Open GST

Open the "Genero configuration details"

In the "Genero Web" configuration, you find a field named "Use Application Server" → click on the button to open the GAS configuration → it opens a new window.

Modify the "GAS 5.01.01" configuration like this

"Installation directory" -> must point to the new GAS 5.01.02 directory <my_gas-50102_path>

"Use Start Script" -> change the directory to <my_gas-50102_path>/bin/gas

Click on the "Application" tab and modify the 2 other entries:

"Application directory" -> <my_gas-50102_path>/appdata/app

"Services directory" -> <my_gas-50102_path>/appdata/services

close this window.

Apply and close the configuration window.

Inside GST, select the "Genero Web" environment

Start a web application

Open a browser on the same machine http://localhost:6394/demos.html

A page must open, its title must be "Welcome to the Genero Application Server 5.01.02"

We are preparing a Genero Studio Maintenance release.

Sorry for the inconvenient,

Four Js Development Tools

Hi Amy,

I have requested a review of the bug description.

The prescribe workaround is as posted:

Before starting your dispatcher, set the following environment variable to prevent your web services from starting automatically and remove any directory:

set FGLAS_GWS_SKIP_START=1

Or modify your web services "*.xcf" file(s) to prevent them from starting automatically, and restart the dispatcher to reload its settings.

Regards,
Delane

Delane,

Thank you. Just to be crystal clear, if we want to modify our xcf files to not start the web service automatically at the start of the dispatch, how do we do that?

I would have thought that the change would be to set the START value to 0, however, the title of the bug #GAS-04005: "Starting a web service where START value is 0 on Windows, may remove directories found on C:\" makes me worried that it's actually the opposite.

So in other words, do we need to change from this:
<START>1</START>
to this:
<START>0</START>
or is it the other way around?

We would like to get this workaround implemented today if at all possible.

Thank you,
Amy Millenson

Hi Amy,

If there's no DVM waiting for requests, the GAS will start a proxy to handle the request and start a new DVM process.

Regards,
Delane
