Remember those cut-and-paste days? Long gone. Now you can quickly convert variables into local variables (for example, as inputs). It's as easy as it gets. Simply right-click the variable you want to convert, and you're done.
OutSystems allows processing events at ridiculous speeds! Our laboratory tests revealed that the pipeline can handle impressive amounts of sustained throughput. Our customers have started to deliver solutions that can batch process peaks of 400,000 payments in minutes. But they also had other ideas. So, we had to act. Here’s how it all went down.
Shameless plug: OutSystems plugins allow your mobile apps to do more, better, and faster. Whether you download our plugins and use them out-of-the-box or create your own - there's a ton to choose from for iOS and Android. You can choose to learn more about OutSystems plugins, or create your own with Apache Cordova components.
Becoming an OutSystems tech lead is now easier than ever. Learn how to design, size, and build a functional OutSystems solution based on business needs and drivers. This training also includes leading the delivery team, ensuring teamwork, and controlling the progress of the project.
Just when you think mobile application logs can't get any better, we go ahead and make them better anyway. Logs are now tagged with a device identifier, so it’s even easier to track issues in a particular device. Searching for a device identifier will help you understand the impact of a given error in the user base. It will also identify how many different devices are being affected.
OutSystems allows processing events at ridiculous speeds. The Light Process Execution mode is used for large-scale event-driven processes that handle several thousands of events per day. Simpler processes that don't need to be tracked run much faster, which increases the event-processing throughput.
You told us you wanted much faster LifeTime performance for larger application portfolios, and we listened. Now you’ll experience response times up to 10x faster while browsing through applications and preparing deployments! If that’s not enough, we added search capabilities so you can easily find and deploy the apps you need.
Software development is changing. The image of a developer chained to a desk, hand-coding and struggling, no longer needs to happen. Developers have been brainwashed into being unproductive because someone had them believe craftsmanship is the way to go. But evolution goes on, and developers can now escape from this oppressive reality. The struggle is no longer real.
We overhauled the shortcuts in the Development Environment and also included a new entry in the Help menu, where you can open the Shortcuts documentation page. Oh, and that menu entry has its own shortcut as well: Ctrl+Shift+K.
We’re always paying attention to your feedback, so we took improving extracting to action seriously. To simplify generated actions, in the new Development Environment, we removed unnecessary input parameters for Site Properties and Session Variables. We also reduced the number of input parameters for record elements.
If any of your pages, other than the landing page, had PullToRefresh, it would not work. And since we don’t like it when things don’t work, we fixed that. So now there’s no problem when you navigate between two pages with the option set as true.
What if you could build a web chat component that you can reuse as many times as you want, that’s independent from specific scenarios, and that you can integrate in any application with only a few different configurations? Is this a dream? No, not at all.
A splash screen might feel like too simple a thing, but when it’s done right, it creates a super user experience. When customized to your application’s look and feel, it is seamless and fluid.
Who likes empty screen spaces? No one, so we fixed that for you. The PullToRefresh feature was creating an empty space on the screen, if controlled by a local variable and disabled. But not anymore.
OutSystems applications come with Font Awesome by default. But sometimes you’ll have a type of application like a weather app that needs specific icons to represent conditions such as light showers, partly sunny, or hail. In those cases, you’ll need need custom icons. So, how can you use custom icons in the OutSystems IDE? Let’s take a look.
Read our documentation to ensure a successful offline sync implementation. Learn about the logic flow in the client and server and how to automatically or manually trigger the sync. And, if you like things neat and organized, don’t miss the Sync Framework Reference, where we detail all the parts of the framework for syncing data between the server and the application.
Get ready to multitask in multiple files. The new version of Service Studio now allows you to open multiple files from the server at the same time. If you usually work with related modules with similar names, you can search them and select as many as you want! By the way, you can also open multiple files from a drive.
Want to gauge the success of your mobile apps more effectively? The OutSystems Mobile Apps Build Service launched a new native logging mechanism, which provides full visibility of all errors that may occur in mobile apps while running on end user devices.
Now, in Service Studio, the application icon is used as home module icon and logo. That’s right, the classic red OutSystems logo is now replaced by whatever you choose for your application and it’s displayed inside the app, for example in the login screen.
OutSystems makes development faster for existing developers. And makes it possible for everyone else. Our Product Designer, Tiago Simões shares his inspiring OutSystems story.
