[Ideas] [Forum] Be able to create a new post from the recent activity page

When you want to make a new post on the forum you first need to click on the Community and then the forum sub menu. It would be nice to have the ability to directly add a new post from the recent activity screen.

Didn't made a post for a while, went to the recent activity page and was searching where to create a new post. Then founded out it wasn't possible from that screen. So make the user expectations work.

Or is it just me having the wrong expectations :).

[Ideas] Provide full RichWidgets documentation

The RichWidgets components seem to be like the ugly sister of the product, where they don't have the same level of information as the rest of the system. 

Can we have full documentation for each widget, action and parameter in the same way that the rest of the system is documented?

[Ideas] Fix the certifications mess

The Outsystems certification path is a real mess. It is always changing. I can't even find out where to find the online exams anymore. Are they gone? 

What about the my curriculum link in our profiles? Are they gone too? Is there still a certification path or are they gone and all there is left is the bootcamps?

How many different levels will there be this month? Are the developers segmented in 3, 4 or 5 levels?

The exam enrolments are not being answered. People have been applying for it since September of last year and still haven't got any type of answer from Outsystems.

[Ideas] Filter on unanswered questions in forums

Hi,

I would like to spot the unanswered questions/topics in the forums when I have the time to dig in deeper or just provide some feedback to get more info.
Since the community is growing by the day (seeing new members almost every day I think) and thus the number of posts the unanswered posts will get buried underneath the "active" ones.
So please give us some way to filter on the posts more effectively.

If there's a way to make a new forum post directly from the Community home page, I can't find it. This should be on the Community home page, or if it is there, make it easier to find.

The new (v9) Conversion tool for mapping structures to one another, is a good improvement, but it would be great improvement when we could also use functions and variables in it.

[Ideas] Improve the Menu management usability

The menu web block usability could have some improvements.
Sometimes its hard to drag and drop a page and understand if it will create a MenuItem or a SubMenuItem.

We could have a more advanced screen (like Aggregates?) with context buttons to directly add a new MenuItem or a new SubMenuItem,

It also should be possible to define the menu with existing MenuItem\SubMenuItem records, instead of web screens.

[Ideas] [ServiceStudio] Add ability to create solution packages via ServiceStudio IDE

Add a new tab to the application screen, call it "Solutions"

Allow User to create a solution, user can drag and drop multiple applications into a solution icon or right click, and this will create a solution package.  

When a user views a solution package he will be able to view all eSpaces and extensions contained in the solution package.

[Ideas] [ServiceStudio] Import external database/reverse database to entity models

In Service Studio

1) add the ability to import/reverse engineer a database to entity models.
2) add the ability to assign physical table names (i.e keep database naming conventions consistant)

This way a developer convert his existing database to outsystems entitties and continue to use outsystems service studio for database modelling without having to rely on additional tools.

[Ideas] Simplify extension logger interface

June 8, 2015, 7:17 am

There is a method used to log message from extension, and here is how it looks:

OutSystems.HubEdition.RuntimePlatform.Log.GeneralLog.Write(DateTime instant, string sessionId, int espaceId, int tenantId, int userId, string message, string messageType, string moduleName, string errorId);

This is too complex to use, and most of the parameters can be determined by the logger itself. Whenever I need to do logging, I spend some time finding what to fill there, and usually I write helper method with much simpler interface, like this:

private void Log(String message, String messageType)
        {
            var appInfo = AppInfo.GetAppInfo();
            new GeneralLog().Write(DateTime.Now, appInfo.OsContext.Session.SessionID, appInfo.eSpaceId, appInfo.Tenant.Id, appInfo.OsContext.Session.UserId,
                message, messageType, "ModuleName", "0");
        }

Please add this kind of overload to GeneralLog class so that it's easier to use for everyone.

I don't know if using "moduleName" parameter makes sense, maybe there should be another overload accepting it, same about the last "errorId".
And "messageType" -  this can be changed to enum, otherwise who knows what message types are available, or can just anything be used there? I also don't know if it's used at all - don't see it appearing in ServiceCenter.

[Ideas] Component to invoke (consume) remote EJB (Enterprise Java Beans) natively

June 9, 2015, 9:32 pm

OutSystems runs on Java Enterprise servers (JEE), as WebLogic and JBoss, and a leading JEE features are EJB, so it would be natural to expect that there would be a native component in OutSystems platform to consume remote EJB exposed by JEE applications, just like we have to Web Services, SAP, etc.

If there were a native component, integration with JEE applications would be simpler and more transparent, as any java developers would expect it to be.

[Ideas] Default value for entity should give suggestions

Hi Greatsystems

I just created an attribute for an entity called UpdatedOn and I want to set it to current date.
I tried all sorts of searches but I couldn't find any example.
Now, while wathcing training videos I saw CurrDate() function..
Then I realize, know how you make things so easy, why was this one so difficult.
My suggestion would be that when I am in an attribute's "Default value" field,
I should get relevant functions for it when I press Ctrl+Space.
If it is a date, for instance I should get CurrDate() and other date returning functions.
If is a time stamp, I should get CurrDateTime() ???

Or at least give expression editing screen (the pop up)..

What do you think?

Thanks again
Hakan

[Ideas] Support Downloading From The Forge Using Service Studio When Multiple Database Catalogs are Defined...

Our OutSystems environment currently has two defined database catalogs. When downloading from the Forge using Service Center, I am prompted to select which database catalog I want the new component to reference. However, when downloading from the Forge using Service Studio, I get no prompt to select a database catalog. As a matter of fact, the process just freezes (obviously waiting for input). 

Service Studio should be updated to prompt the user to select a database catalog when more than one has been defined in Service Center for the target OutSystems environment.

[Ideas] Warning on infinite loop

June 16, 2015, 7:10 am

This is a stupid situation, but it happens sometimes. Say you have "if" block (in logic), which goes to one or several actions, and then should return to normal flow. But than you accidentally put the arrow so that it goes back to "if". Later when you notice problems you can spend hours trying to figure out what is wrong, depending on the side effects this creates. Debugger doesn't always help - I've been in the situation when there was DB update inside of one of nested actions, and debugger was just stuck on it, so it was not clear where is the problem.

Off course this is human factor, but would be great if Service Studio noticed such infinite loops and gave a warning about it. As a simple way, It might warn on any flow which returns to original "if", or, a little more complex - just the one that doesn't have modifications of the variables used in "if" (since there is no thing like "break" in Outsystems, there are only 2 ways of exiting such kind of loop: a change of "if" result and exception).
