Codeless Ajax generating buzz before Oracle OpenWorld 2009
October 9, 2009
In today’s InfoWorld, Paul Krill gave a little nod to Alpha Software and Alpha Five Version 10 in his article about some of the soon-to-be-goings-ons at Oracle’s OpenWorld 2009, taking place Oct. 11-15.
Besides the buzz over Oracle’s potential plans for Java, Krill mentions, “notable among third parties presenting app dev technologies at the event is Alpha Software, which plans to demonstrate its ‘codeless AJAX’ development tool.”
Have a look at the article to see what else will be taking the spotlight at next week’s conference.

Alpha Five Version 10 Feature Peek #34: Advanced use of "ShowRowExpanderIcon" event
October 9, 2009
When you use the Row Expander feature in a grid, by default, the expand icon is shown next to each row in the grid, regardless of whether that row actually has any records. In some cases, you might want to suppress the row expander icon from showing if there if there are no child records. You can do this using the ShowRowExpanderIcon event.

Alpha Five Version 10 Feature Peek #33: Advanced use of custom controls in a grid
October 8, 2009
One of the control types available in the Alpha Five Version 10 grid is the custom control. This allows you to define an arbitrary Xbasic function to compute the HTML and Javascript for the control.
In the example below, the grid is showing invoices. One of the cells in the grid shows the line items for the invoice. This could have been done using an embedded grid component, but the custom control solution is a lighter weight, faster solution.

It’s about doggone time for a doggy update
October 7, 2009
Way back in the beginning of the summer, Bridget and I told you about the new puppy we were gearing up to adopt. Well, in true Rabins fashion, I’ve been so excited about HAVING A PUPPY that I haven’t yet gotten around to updating you on his wonderful adoption.
So without further ado, meet Clifton.
As you can see, he’s no longer the tiny puppy I raved about last spring. But just like every pup, he has been keeping the Rabins household busy. Not to mention, keeping us on our toes (if you’re a fellow dog owner, I know you know what I mean). He’s frisky and friendly, and every day he’s getting better at his manners. But above all, he’s a joy!

Using third-party JavaScript libraries in Alpha Five Version 10
October 6, 2009
Bob Moore, one of our Alpha Five Version 10 beta testers, recently put together this video to demonstrate how he has used third-party JavaScript libraries in a v10 application.
In the video, Bob uses some JavaScript libraries from DOJO — one of the MANY open source JavaScript tool kits — to extend the functionality of an Alpha Five Version 10 grid.
This demonstration is just one more example of the easy extensibility and openness of Version 10, thanks to its rich new event model. Enjoy the video!
This example is a simple example but it is designed to demonstrate the principle. Using the same approach 3rd party external JavaScript libraries can be used to add scheduling, specialized image viewing, stock market data feeds and much more to Alpha Five v10 Codeless Ajax applications.
