miha_: Hello everybody.
CarlosRuiz: Good morning
miha_: I have a simple question: were there any efforts to port IDempiere to MS SQL server?
CarlosRuiz: simple answer then :-) no efforts
miha_: ok :)
CarlosRuiz: good news is that iDempiere has a DB translation layer - so it's feasible - I think even it could be done as a plugin
CarlosRuiz: but, unless you're captured by MS - is cheaper just to do it with postgresql or oracle
miha_: I'm poposed a project I planned to use IDempiere as a back bone for, but customer likes to pay Microsoft a lot, so MS SQL is a must.
miha_: ok. In know pretty much on IDempiere project structure and i'm sure I can make it connect to MS SQL database by writing another .db plugin. Can anyone tell me (maybe for own experience) what challenges may I face while porting database?
miha_: porting tables should not be too hard, but functions may take some time...
CarlosRuiz: yes - there are tools to move the database
CarlosRuiz: porting the functions is important
CarlosRuiz: my experience with SQLServer the procedural language was not solid
CarlosRuiz: but that was in 1999 - I guess it must be a lot better now
CarlosRuiz: and the iDempiere functions are little
CarlosRuiz: there are some parts in code where specifically it looks for DB.isOracle or DB.isPostgresSQL - I think working on a third db that must be fixed to make it more extensible
miha_: yea, about 50 functions. Not too much
CarlosRuiz: I think the real hard work is to try to keep up to date your database - because migration scripts are just pushed for oracle and postgresql
CarlosRuiz: maybe you could try to keep applying migration scripts in a pg db - and isolate the changes on 2pack to apply on your sqlserver instance
druiz: Hi everyone :)
CarlosRuiz: Hello druiz
ocurieles: Good Morning
CarlosRuiz: Hi ocurieles
nmicoud: Bonjour
ocurieles: Hi @CarlosRuz
CarlosRuiz: Hi nmicoud
nmicoud: Hello Carlos ; could you have a look at the last comment of jira #581 ? (DetailPane.IsOpen with System)
miha_: Pretty much places where DB.isOracle or DB.isPostgresSQL is used. Error code handling and customizing SQL queries
nmicoud: That make me think that nobody use System ; only SuperUser :)
CarlosRuiz: sure nmicoud - seems is just for oracle - in postgresql is working fine - but is still a PITA as it duplicates the preference records
nmicoud: PITA = ?
miha_: Hi nmicoud, I use System a lot and not SuperUser :) That's my preference
nmicoud: :)
CarlosRuiz: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pita
nmicoud: :D
ocurieles: :D
nmicoud: i only find the bread definition, so it was hard to understand ;)
CarlosRuiz: I don't use System - mostly SuperUser - and when admin account is shared then I create specific person accounts
ocurieles: Carlos Yesterday Saul found another bug in WebServices, I'm putting the patch in a jira Ticket...

CarlosRuiz: hieplq_, AYT?
hieplq_: hi @CarlosRuiz, i'm here
CarlosRuiz: Hi hieplq_
CarlosRuiz: are you planning to use experimental for another feature?
hieplq_: yes. at weekend, i will apply css and after that collect issue relate info window.
CarlosRuiz: ah great
CarlosRuiz: I was thinking to use it to experiment something with nmicoud - but better I leave it for your info window tickets - there are a lot
hieplq_: maybe you and nmicoud make other branch. i feel this way is verry better. sync a branch with development is more easy than sync patch.
CarlosRuiz: the issue with nmicoud is minor - I think we can manage it with patches
aguerra: hi somebody know how to change the header when i use the request email process ... ej: http://pastebin.com/fBg8c9zw
CarlosRuiz: aguerra, it sounds like touching code is needed there
CarlosRuiz: hieplq_, noticed you changed IDEMPIERE-2610 to Fixed - but it doesn't have a patch
CarlosRuiz: sometimes I search in JIRA for "resolution = Unresolved" for open tickets
hieplq_: about IDEMPIERE-2610, it's accident, i testing patch, will attach and change status when done.
CarlosRuiz: thanks hieplq_
CarlosRuiz: experimental server is in chinese - I can't understand one word there :-)
