ABL2DB question. About menus and menu item

Posted by OctavioOlguin on 25-Apr-2018 19:14

[mention:6911e6cc8725416dba58ae08a80faffd:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] has developed a certainly very useful tool. (see http://www.oehive.org/ABL2DB).

In configuring this tool, he mention about  how shame-ish would be to program a menu from a hardcoded fashion...

I humble accept that shame.. for 20 years I've hardcoded menus...

Never have seing another option.... 

Is there around some examples of a such menu system?   AutoEdge uses it?

Where could I get ahold of some sample menus?  doc, or disetation about these?

Thanks in advance.

running from OEPDS.  11.7

Noticed I got this on the "Referenced Assemblies" section of project.

I followed all instruction from proparse installation, and worked ok, but the proparse.net-dll file I copy from com/joanju\proparse into root of projectshows this error on class browser

Assembly proparse.net

Location: proparse.net, Version=4.0.1.1114, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cda1b098b1034b24

Note:
This assembly is not available to the Class Browser.
The assembly could not be loaded from the global assembly cache or from the assembly directory of the project.

other 2 dlls (IKVM.openJDK.core and IKVMRuntime) won't cause error...

Do you have a copy of the proparse.net.dll and the IKVM dll's?

If not, go to https://github.com/consultingwerk/proparse/releases

But you'll have to update your assemblies.xml file to match the version number of proparse.

The alternative is a data driven, dynamic menu.  The only examples I have are ChUI, but I am sure there are others.  The data is preferrably in the database so that no code needs to be changed to change the menus.   Among other things, we allowed user to create new menus for a particular job function and then place on that menu all the most commonly used functions used by a person in that job ... A/R clerk, A/P Clerk etc.  This meant the user could spend 90% or more of their day on one menu, while leaving the standard menu intact.
