Options for running add-on

Hi everyone,
I have created some extra functionality to SAP Business One using vb 2005.  These features will need to be used by others and I was wondering if anyone knew how these users will be able to run these add-ons.  At the moment my code simply hooks into an already open SAP application and adds the add-ons. 
Ideally I need to be able to either:
1. Run the add-ons from the SAP application.....or
2. Run my own executable which opens up SAP Business one and then adds the add-ons
Has anybody any ideas
Thanks
Sally

Hi!
You should create a "real" addon, I mean, not one that starts once business one is already running, but one that is managed by business one (so it starts automatically or manually, maybe being mandatory?).
You have to create an addon installer for business one to know about it. You can create installers using install shield or other tools, but I recommend you to use the one provided in the SBO Development tools, which you can found on the downloads section of the SDN.
By the way, I'm pretty impressed with the fact that you didn't already know about this... while having 42 posts?
Hope it helps;

  • In SMO there is any option for run both ExecuteNonQuery and ExecuteWithResults.?

    In SMO there is any option for run both ExecuteNonQuery and ExecuteWithResults query at simultaneously?

    Hello,
    First, in a client session nothing can run "simultaneously", all statements are executed in sequence. And what should
    it be good for to run ExecuteNonQuery +
    ExecuteWithResults; both executes the SQL batch, the only difference is, ExecuteWithResults returns a result?
    But if you like, start one by one.

  • The add-ons tool window hangs when I click Options for any add-on

    This morning, IE8 showed up as the default browser. Also, the Lastpass button was missing. When I click Tools-Add-ons and click the Options button for any add-on, the window hangs. Sometimes it hangs FF as well.

    I resolved this by using a different add-on.
    I was issued a new computer at work. It's a Windows 7 Dell E6410, and I was configuring a new installation of Firefox for it. I had downloaded the same URL shortening tool that I used on my old Windows XP IBM T60 computer. That add-on had the hang when you click on "Options" from the Tools > Add-ons menu. After uninstalling the add-on, I searched for a different URL shortening tool, and this one did NOT produce the hang.

  • Options for running older software on Mavericks

    When I try to upgrade, it lists a bunch of software that won't run on Mavericks - does Mavericks have some type of "classic" mode that will enable me to run these programs?

    The question of this thread is not about updating. It's about options to do what we want in free enterprise.
    For every troll, there are helpful members of this forum who will offer actual assistance.  As Eric mentioned, there are options.  Here is a recent post I assembled on a similar question:
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
    2.  If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PowerPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
    3.  Upgrade your software to Intel compatible versions if they are available, or find alternative software that will open your data files, modify them and save them;
    4.  Install Snow Leopard Server (with Rosetta) into Parallels or VMWare Fusion.  Apple is now selling Snow Leopard Server for only $19.99 + sales tax & shipping; call 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753).    This solution will give you concurrent use of your PowerPC applications and access to Lion or Mt. Lion.

  • The best option for running Windows on a Mac?

    Though I'm loving my MacBook Pro, the only thing I would like to improve is the capacity for playing games. And for that I really need Windows.
    So, I have a copy of Windows XP, and I have a copy of Parallel. I've installed Parallel and Windows XP, but it's limited and I can't figure out how to make my graphics card (which is 256MB) work with it. It seems to need to use the Parallel Graphics. So, some questions:
    1) Is there a way to play the best Windows games using Parallel?
    2) Is there a better alternative? One of my friends mentioned Bootcamp to me. Would that be better? Is there any program that would allow me to run Windows and use the full power of my system to play the games?

    For gaming... your best option is to use BootCamp. Parallels is an excellent program... and it runs Windows well under most conditions... but it is still not great for gaming (even with version 3). BootCamp is free. It allows you to boot directly into Windows making your MacBook Pro a full fledged Windows PC. Games will run just as well as they would on any similarly spec'd PC notebook. The BootCamp utility in OS X will allow you to create a Windows driver CD for all of the hardware. You will get full speed 3D, ect. Also... you can use your BootCamp installation of Windows in Parallels... So, after you install Windows via BootCamp, you can delete your previous "Parallels Only" Windows installation and go through the process of installing a new version of Windows in Parallels... you will be able to point it to the copy of Windows you have set up in BootCamp. This way... when you want to play games... you can boot into Windows and run them at full speed... but for those times you are in OS X and you just want to launch an application that does not need all the 3d power, you can launch that same copy of Windows through Parallels.

  • Options for running Windows Apps

    Here goes - I'm a pc user. Developer to be specific, so I need to be able to run SQL Server 2005/2000 Visual Studio 2003/2005, and other Windows related apps to support my job. However, I'm interested in purchasing an Apple to support my hobbies (photography, etc). They're elegant in design/architecture, etc.
    I was really excited about the new MacBook Pro on an Intel platform - with dreams of "dual booting" Windows. Unfortunately, it does not appear that Windows (currently) supports the BIOS of the MacBook Pro - and I'm not interested in "hacking" a solution out. I need this thing to run, and run well.
    I've also heard about the VM and have used VM to support development work. However, I've found it to be clunky at best - and would rather pursue alternatives.
    So, ultimately my questions are - am I ultimately restricted to having multiple machines if I want a MacBook Pro? Is there any reality to the claim that Vista will be able to support the BIOS standard used by Apple? Should I just forget about it - and purchase another antiquated pc.
    Thanks in advance for any useful information. Sean

    It is possible that Microsoft will release a Virtual PC for Intel Mac, but that may be some time in the future.
    Currently you can obtain a boot loader that will instal Win XP on an Intel Mac. It is fairly straightforward but assumes that you are not a new computer user.
    Please be advised: This solution is not supported by Apple. Apple is not preventing people from instaling Windows, however they will not troubleshoot your problems. Furthermore you may wish to consider waiting a bit because the current instal does not contain fan drivers which means that while in Windows you run the chance of overheating your MacBook Pro. Given time this is likely to be fixed.

    In the long run it is better to only run OS X, however if you are forced to run Windows the least we Mac users can do is buy Apple hardware and software and dual boot our computers when required to. If I were in your situation I too would rather have a product made by Apple than any other manufacturer.

  • Which is the Mac preferable option for running FCPX?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm a newbie looking for the best compromise budget Mac for AVCHD 1080p video editing with Final Cut Pro X, Adobe Premiere CS6 and Adobe Aftereffects. The storage space is not important as I'm planning to keep all the files on a Thunderbolt-connected EHD (any comments on this?).
    Currently, I'm working on a iMac 27'' 3.4GHz i7 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675 MX 1024 MB and would like to get a personal machine that also works (as) smooth, but for a smaller budget (up to 1000 USD). These are the options I currently have:
    1. Mac mini (late 2012) MD387xx/A
    2.5GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
    16GB DDR3 SDRAM
    Intel HD 4000
    500 GB HD
    Thunderbolt USB 3
    802.11n WiFi + Bluetooth 4.0
    2. iMac 27'' (mid 2011)
    2.7GHZ Intel Core i5
    16GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    AMD Radeon HD 6770M 512 MB
    1TB HDD
    3. MacBook Pro 17'' (early 2011)
    2.3GHz Intel Core i7
    8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM
    AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB
    Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
    500 GB SATA Storage
    How important is the duo- or quad-core?
    Which graphic card would be the best suited for video editing and graphics on FCPX/AfterEffects?
    Which one would you go for if looking for a stable, strong performance for up to 5 years?
    Thanks in advance for any tips!

  • Options for running threads?

    hi, suppose i have a class that implements Runnable.
    I also have a few different functions I would like to run as threads, depending
    on certain criteria from within the class. What is the best way to go about this?
    the only way i can think of is to have a variable like this:
    private final static int runFirstCase = 1;
    private final static int runSecondCase = 2;
    private final static int runThirdCase = 3;
    public class tester implements Runnable{
    int runType = 0;
    .....class definitions
    public void run(){
      if(runType == runFirstCase){
          //run the first case function
       }else if(runType == runSecondCase){
         //run second case.
        } //...etc.
    }//end run
    public setRunType(int type){
      runType = type;
    public static void main(String args[]){
        tester test = new tester();
        test.setRunType(tester.runFirstCase);
        test.start();
        test.setRunType(tester.runSecondCase);
        test.start();
        //...etc.
    }but this way seems a bit convoluted to me, like i would have to worry about
    the possibility of 'runType' changing from the time i set it to the time i start off the thread, like the time between setting run type and launching the thread
    should be synchronized to some extent to prevent this from happening. Is that
    being too cautious? is it a silly concern?
    anybody have any ideas for me? thanks!

    That has nothing to do with whether you have one
    class or three. How do you think you're going to
    report exceptions now?good point. i just realized i don't know much about
    reporting exceptions from a
    thread. how is this done? i guess if i knew more
    about this subject i could
    bypass all this other stuff.
    any info on it? thanks again for the helpThe thing to realize is that, by their nature, multiple threads run in parallel to each other and to the thread that spawned them. They're asynhcronous with respect to the spawning thread.
    When you call thread.start(), the start method returns more or less immediately, but the thread in question may still be running. Menwhile, your original thread goes about it's business. It's the sequentialness of a single-threaded environment that lets exceptions nd return values work the way they do.
    So the new thread needs to call some method on the parent thread or set some variable or something when an exception occurs.
    But you have to answer this: What will the parent thread do while the children are running? Will it stop and wait until they're all done, and then do certain processing based on their results or exceptions? Or is it just going to go on and die?
    What do you expect to happen when a child thread encounters an exception?

  • Option for running a BAPI outside of SAP

    Hi everyone
    I'd like to call a BAPI from outside of SAP and am interested in what options there are to do this. 
    I believe that Delphi and PHP can be used.  Are there any others?
    Cheers

    You can use a number of languages. The main thing is that you need the RFC library (librfc32.dll on Windows) to communicate with SAP. There are wrappers in Perl, Python, Ruby etc. If you have SAP GUI installed on Windows, you can even write VB scripts to call RFCs in SAP because of the COM-exposed functions.
    (Remember that the term BAPI refers to Business API, which may not always represent a remote-enabled function module. What you want to do is call RFC function modules from outside SAP).
    Google for "SAP RFC <language name>" to see if a specific language has the wrappers/bindings for calling SAP RFC function modules.

  • Alternative options for running flash-based software on x86_64 systems

    As per the new droppage of the flashplugin for 64bit Arch, what should us 64bitters do?
    What are these "alternative options" mentioned in the Arch news?

    Alternative options to do what? What did you use Flash for?
    I often say there are three ways Flash is used on the Internet:
    Showing advertisements (I assume you don't want to get those working again)
    Video games
    Showing video
    (did I miss anything?)
    What are you trying to do?
    EDIT: Also, I think there have been many threads on this topic. The general solution was to use 32 bit Flash in 64 bit Arch. As for me, I just stopped using Flash.

  • Firefox hangs when clicking "Options" on any add-on in the add-on manager.

    After the latest update the add-on manager window hangs whenever i click on the options for any add-on. The main firefox window works fine, but i am unable to to go into the options for my add-ons. Moreover, my search engines keep rearranging and disappearing. I dont know if that's relevant, but I thought I should add it too.

    I installed 4 different extensions ... when I click on addon manager and click any extension "options" the whole addon manger freezes up for me as well. I can't close or escape the window. I can open another browser window but the old window with the addon manager is frozen so I must use task manager to close.
    After trying many options this worked for me ... I uninstalled Adobe Flash plugin and reinstalled Shockwave Flash 11.0.1.152 ... I do not know why or how but it fixed the problem Now everything is working HURRAY!

  • How do i run add ons on firefox running on android tablet

    i m unable to locate the installed add ons in the browser..

    Hi,
    Sorry for the delayed reply. If you go to the Preferences, you should see new options for each add-on. Let me know which add-ons your using (I don't see any installed in your system data).
    When you find an add-on using the search on the Add-ons screen, you need to tap it and then an Add to Firefox button will appear. Tap the Add to Firefox button to install it. Then, you should get additional items listed on the Preferences screen.
    Thanks,

  • How To... Change the Data Type for a SELECT-OPTIONS at run time.

    Hello,
    I am trying to restrict the values available for entry into a SELECT-OPTIONS at run time depending on user input.
    The logic is as follows. The user has two input fields. A PARAMETER field which has the type RSDIOBJNM and allows them to choose an InfoObject. And the user has a SELECT-OPTIONS field to allow them to select the Characteristic values for that InfoObject.
    I would like the following example to be possible:
    The user enters 0MATERIAL into the PARAMETER. When the user clicks on the SELECT-OPTIONS control code will derive a list of possible options the user can enter in the SELECT-OPTIONS. In this case only values found in the master data or at least no values greater than 18 characters.
    I have looked at the following function module SELECT_OPTIONS_RESTRICT and this do not appear to be helpful as they only restrict on the signs allowed for the values (unless I misunderstand, it is a complex function module!).
    The code I have so far is (thus the user enters a InfoObject into p_char1 and the select options so_char1 should only accept active values of that InfoObject):
    declaration of variables for user interface
      DATA c_char(32) TYPE c.
    declaration of count variable
      DATA i_count TYPE i.
    declaration of user interface
      SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK a1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.
        PARAMETERS: p_ipack TYPE RSLOGDPID.
      SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK a1.
      SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-002.
        PARAMETERS: p_char1 TYPE RSDIOBJNM.
        SELECT-OPTIONS: so_char1  for c_char NO INTERVALS.
        PARAMETERS: p_char2 TYPE RSDIOBJNM.
        SELECT-OPTIONS: so_char2  for c_char NO INTERVALS.
        PARAMETERS: p_char3 TYPE RSDIOBJNM.
        SELECT-OPTIONS: so_char3  for c_char NO INTERVALS.
      SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b1.
    Is what I am trying to do possible???
    Thanks for any help. Ross.

    You really want to restrict possible values of a select-option based on another field, not change the length of type of the select-option field, right?
    Here is what you do:  Code a custom F4 value help for the select-option at event AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE REQUEST FOR..  The first thing you do here is read the value of the parameter field (p_ipack in your example).  You can use function module DYNP_VALUES_READ.  Based on this value, you can propose values for the select-option fields.  Note that the use can still enter whatever s(he) wishes in to the select-option field without pressing F4. In this case, you will have to code some input validations taking into account the value in the p_ipack field.
