Kalipso Basics How to Deploy iOS Applications With the release of Kalipso 4.1.0, iOS is now supported and you can test and deploy to iOS devices.

In order to test the project on an iOS device, you need to install the KClient application from the App Store and, after generating a project update, manually perform a synchronization from the KClient to retrieve the project. 

Learn More about iOS deploying in the technical note attached. 		13/4/2018
General How to Use Webservices Web services are client and server operations that communicate over the World Wide Web (WWW) using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). They are self-contained, modular, distributed, dynamic applications that can be described, published, located, or invoked over the network to create products, processes and supply chains. They are built on top of open standards such as TCP/IP, HTTML, HTML, and XML. There are two main types of webservices: SOAP and REST. SOAP (originally Simple Object Access Protocol) is a protocol specification for exchanging structured information in the implementation of web services in computer networks. REST stands for REpresentational State Transfer. REST is a web standards-based architecture and uses HTTP Protocol for data communication. In Kalipso you can use Web services to send and receive data. Kalipso supports both SOAP and RESTful Web Services.

General How to Use Push Notifications Push Notifications are messages that are sent directly to the user’s mobile device. 

App Publishers can send them at any time and the message will pop up even if the device is locked or if the user is in another app. They can be used to provide a richer experience to the application users, like sharing updated information or events. 

Applications don’t have control over sending push notifications to the user as they are managed by push notification services like (Firebase Cloud Messaging). 

These services uniquely identify devices with an identification token and not logged in users of the apps. They then send this token to its own service which will be used to send messages to the device in a specified format.

Kalipso Basics What is Kalipso Studio Kalipso is a rapid application generator for Microsoft based operating system terminals, with a special focus on mobile activity.  Supporting Windows Mobile, Windows CE, XP, Vista and Windows Seven, Kalipso allows you to, in an easy and quick way, create online or offline applications. Common indoor applications are Warehouse Management, Quality Control, Shop Floor Control and Asset Management. Common outdoor applications are Sales Force, Route Accounting, Field Services, Proof of Delivery and many others.


Kalipso is composed of 3 main elements:

  • Kalipso Studio – Visual environment to create applications.
  • Kalipso Client – Engine (installed on the device) that allows you to execute the applications developed with Kalipso Studio.
  • MIS Communicator – Engine that manages communications between terminals and servers. Only Kalipso Studio is licensed. For the other 2 products, it´s NOT necessary any kind of license.
(*this is no applicable for Kalipso Voice Studio and Kalipso Voice Runtimes; in this case, you must have an additional license for Kalipso Voice Studio and Kalipso Voice runtime license for each terminal; also, software such as PrinterCE from Field Software, TOMTOM or other external products, is NOT included.)


Kalipso has 4 main types of runtime clients:

  • Windows Mobile
  • Windows CE
  • Desktop (PC)
  • Android

Most of the Kalipso features are available for all 4 client types. However, some of them are specific for one or two operating systems. Please check the Actions documentation to see this kind of cases.

Kalipso Basics Project Properties - General Parts In this section, you can manage general information regarding your Project basic definitions.


General

Project
Name of the Project
The name of your Project is the one that will be visible to the user at the PDA. The name of the Project should only contain letters, digits or underscore (_) and must start with a letter.
Description Description of the Project
This description is for your information only, Kalipso does nothing with it.
Icon Icon associated with the Project
This icon will be visible to the user on Windows Mobile/CE devices and Desktop as the image of your Project. Click the square to select the Icon. You should pick a 32x32 ".ico" file otherwise the generated executable won't show it.
Theme
Visual style collection associated with the Project

 A copy of the selected style will be created in the Project. Any created Control will inherit it's default properties from the default style in the Theme.
Project Version Version of your Project
This property is for your information only but it's accessible within your Project in runtime via the “PRJ_VERSION” Keyword. If you intend to generate an APK, the format of this property must comply with Google's rules as follows: ...
Database Version Version of your Project’s Database
This property is for your information only but it's accessible within your Project in runtime via the “DB_VERSION” Keyword. Its format and content is totally up to you.



Mobile Device

A Kalipso Project must be associated with a Mobile Device, which can be one in the list of devices shipped with Kalipso or one that you create yourself (Check Terminals for more information). Nonetheless, you can deploy your Project to almost any kind of PDA or Smartphone. Kalipso will use the properties of the Device you’ve defined, to define your Project's Forms size, as well as the physical keyboard information to provide you with its keys as an Event.

Device
Device associated with the Project
Form's size will be inherited from the Device's Properties. To use keystrokes as an Event to trigger Actions, the keys available to be captured must be defined in the Device.
Display Width Width of the Device's screen
This property is not editable; it displays the Width property of the chosen Device. This width will be used by the Forms of the Project so that you know the available working area.
Display Height Height of the Device's Screen
This property is not editable; it displays the Height property of the chosen Device. This height will be used by the Forms of the Project so that you know the available working area.



Screen Orientation

Kalipso allows you to develop your Project whether for Portrait view or Landscape. By default, the orientation its defined by the size of the Device. Nonetheless, if you want your application to rotate along with the Device, you must enable it.

Management
Management of the Portrait/Landscape feature
Kalipso allows you to develop your Project whether for Portrait view or Landscape.
- No rotation.
Auto - When switching between Portrait and Landscape, based on the Terminal size, Kalipso will resize and reposition the Forms and Controls automatically.
Custom - This option allows you to define the size and position of each Form and Control in both Portrait and Landscape views. On Kalipso Main window, in the Main Toolbar, use the “Switch” button to switch between the Portrait and Landscape views.
Default View Default view of the Project
This property lets you define in which view your Project should be: Portrait or Landscape. This property only gets enabled if you choose “Custom” option in the Management property.
Print  
This button allows you to print a documentation file with all the information regarding your Project. It also allows you to export screen shots from your application.


Remarks

You can request Kalipso to redefine the size and position of a Form's Controls by right clicking it (the Form) in the Project's Tree. You can convert Portrait to Landscape and vice-versa.

Duplicate
All sizes and positions are duplicated from one orientation to the other. Controls may not fit on the screen and/or not displayed. You may maximize the Form to check if there's any Control outside the screen.

Calculate
All sizes and positions are calculated from one orientation to the other. The final result is the same as it would be in runtime using Management set to Auto. This way, you can get an automatic position and size and then adjust them freely. 		12/6/2017
Kalipso Basics Project Properties - Language Kalipso allows you to develop your Project for several Languages. You can keep all the Project features and simply redefine the texts for each Language. This language will be the one displayed by default either in the Designer and the PDA. You can Add, remove and duplicate values from languages.


Adding a Language to your Project

To add a language to your Project, select the one that you want to add on the left list and press the button. You can also double click on the list to do the same.


Removing a Language from your Project

To remove a language from your Project, select the one that you want to add on the right list and press the button. You can also double click on the list to do the same.


Duplicating the values from a Language to another

To copy the text from one language to another, you can right-click at the language to copy from, in the right list. You can only do this if you’ve already defined more than on language. 		12/6/2017
Kalipso Basics Kalipso's Keyboards Kalipso offers you a set of virtual Keyboards (Alphanumeric, Numeric and Calendar) to avoid the use of Windows virtual keyboard. You’ll see that our Keyboards come with handy features that save you time, and also that they are more practical to the end user. You can open a Keyboard via the “Keyboard” Action. Its design can be modified only for Windows Mobile, Windows CE and Desktop.

Kalipso Basics Project Properties - Other Properties You can customize and protect your Project simply by checking a few Options. Please revise them because they directly influence the execution of your Project once deployed




Other Settings


Custom Error Message
Text to be displayed in a Message Box in automatic error management

This is an expression and you can use Variables and Keywords. Option only available if you've set the error management to .




DB Encryption Key
Password to encrypt your Local Database file

All the Offline and Local Tables used in your Project are stored in a single SQLite file. That file, by default, can be accessed with appropriate software. If you want to prevent the access to that file, define a password to encrypt it.
If you don’t define this property, your Database will be open.


GPS Unit
GPS unit used by the TOMTOM and GPS Actions


Resize Mode
Allows the application to automatically resize to better fit the actual device where it's being executed

For example, if the project terminal is defined has 1200x640 and the application is then executed on a device with 1800x800, then all the objects in the application will be stretched 1.5 times in the horizontal dimension and 1.28 times in the vertical. The font sizes will also be adjusted by the smaller factor, in this case, 1.28. So if the application is executed on devices with similar width/height ratios, it will "look good" on all those devices without any modification to the project.


Idle Time
This parameter allows defining the time, in milliseconds, to trigger the "On Idle" Event

The Event will be triggered when no Action has been executed during the amount of "Idle Time".


Android ZXing Mode
Allows to define the usage mode of ZXing on Android

For barcode reading through the camera on Android, Kalipso uses ZXing library. This library isn't updated in Kalipso as the same speed as it is released. Therefore, Kalipso allows you to choose between using the library version shipped with KClient or the manually installed ZXing app.

Internal Library - Use ZXing library shipped with KClient
Installed ZXing App - Use installed ZXing app
Automatic - Use ZXing app if installed, use internal library otherwise


Automatically Refresh Combos, Lists, and Radios with only Fixed Values
Loads Combos, List and Radios data even without calling "Refresh Control" Action

If your Control has only Fixed Values, it's automatically refreshed with that data. If you uncheck this property, you’ll have to use “Refresh”, “Refresh Plane” or “Refresh Control” Action for the Control to be filled with the defined fixed values.


Prevent the execution of Update/Delete Statements without 'Where' clause
Returns an error if you try to execute an Update or Delete SQL Statement without "where"

By checking this property, any Update or Delete statement that you’ve defined in your Project that doesn’t have a “Where” (ex: “Update Products set Stock = 10”, “delete from Products”), will not be executed and an error will be raised. You can enable this feature individually for Online and Offline Databases.
If you really want to execute and Update or Delete statement without a "Where", we advise you to keep this option checked and to define a dummy "Where" in your Update or Delete statement (ex: “Update Products set Stock = 10” where 1 = 1, “delete from Products” where 1 = 1).


Prevent SQL Injection
“Does what it says”

When defining SQL statements in Kalipso, you can use values inputted by the user, therefore is possible for the user to “inject” SQL code into your statement. If you activate this property, Kalipso will check for the existence of semi-colon (;) outside single quotes (’).




Numeric Settings


Thousand Separator
Thousand separator character for numeric columns

This value is available throughout the Project under "TSEPARATOR" Keyword.


Decimal Separator
Decimal separator character for numeric columns

This value is available throughout the Project under "DSEPARATOR" Keyword.


Currency Symbol
Character used as Currency symbol (sufix) in currency columns

This value is available throughout the Project under "CCY_SYMBOL" Keyword.


Currency Decimal Places
Number of decimal places in currency columns

This value is available throughout the Project under "CCY_DPLACES" Keyword. 		12/6/2017
Kalipso Basics Link Projects And/Or Components Kalipso lets you link your Project to other Projects and/or Components. This allows you to divide a Project into several parts and assemble them into one Project.


Link to Project
All objects in the linked Project are made available in your Project


Link to Component
Only exported objects in the Component are made available in your Project


Export
When a linked Project/Component isn't set to export, it's not deployed along with your Project

The only scenario where you don't want to export a linked Project/Component is when you have bidirectional links. (Project A links to Project A and vice-versa). 		12/6/2017

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a set of protocols that enable communication between two devices when placed in close proximity, using NFC Data Exchange Format (NDEF) messages.

NFC is designed to be a secure form of data exchange, and an NFC device is capable of being both an NFC reader and an NFC tag. This unique feature allows NFC devices to communicate
peer-to-peer. It can be used to perform automatic configurations, like pairing a printer (or other peripherals) to a PDA by Bluetooth; automatic connection to Wireless networks, and unlike barcodes, NFC tags don’t need to be scanned.

In Kalipso, you can use NFC to interface with any device or tag that supports this type of communications. 		11/4/2017
Kalipso Basics Project Properties - Advanced You can customize and protect your Project simply by checking a few Options. Please revise them because they directly influence the execution of your Project once deployed.




Advanced Settings


MIS Product Code
This is the product code used by Kalipso to identify to MISCommunicator. In MISCommunicator this is defined under the "Products" button.


Keywords Scope
This option is for Leyword ERRORCODE, ERRORMSG, IERRORCODE, RECORDCOUNT and POPUP.

  • “Global” it means that this keywords work has global variables, their value is equal in all project.
  • “Event” it means that this keywords work has temporary variables, their value is only valid for the event that is running. If for example an ActionSet is called this keyword will have their own value inside the action set that is running.


Preload Control's Images in Memory
“Does what it says”

The pre-loading will be executed when the Form is open. If checked, this option will slow down the opening of the Form and will have a higher cost of memory but the display of images in the Controls will be faster.


Manage Key Event On
When defining a Key Event, that Key event can be triggered either at Key Down or Key Up.

With this parameter, you can define if you want the Key Events to be triggered when the key is pressed, released or both. Notice that if defined both "Key Down" and "Key Up", each Key Event will be triggered twice for each keystroke.


Android code execution mode
In Android, if a specific set of code is executed in the user interface thread for longer than 4 or 5 seconds, a message will appear to the user saying the application is "non-responsive" (ANR) and it allows the user to kill the application.

The advantage of "Background Thread" mode is that the "ANR" message will never appear to the user, but if the application makes a lot of changes to the user interface in the code, it can be slower.
For application that doesn't have code running for long periods of time, the "User Interface Thread" mode is normally preferred, and if a specific function requires a lot of time to execute it can still be executed in a background thread by specifying "Thread Mode" = Yes in the "Execute Action Set" actions.


Enable Push Notifications
Allows you to enable your application to receive Push Notifications

A push notification is a message that pops up on a mobile device. App publishers can send them at any time; users don't have to be in the app or using their devices to receive them.

In order to use Push Notifications in your application, you need to register it in Google. Upon that process is completed, you're able to download a JSON file with your Android Sender ID and Android Google App ID.


Android Sender ID
This value is provided to you by Google upon setting up your account

You can use "Load from googleservices.json" button to load it automatically if you have access to the file.


Android Google App ID
This value is provided to you by Google upon registering your app for push notifications

You can use "Load from googleservices.json" button to load it automatically if you have access to the file.


Save messages when application is not active
When your application is closed, you cannot intercept push notifications. Nonetheless, when you activate this option, lost messages are stored and you can access them when the application runs again through "Push Notification Get Lost Message" Action.


Send Notification
For test purposes, you're able to send a Push Notification to your application, if running through KClient.
