This group is for topics on coding in ABL (formerly known as Progress 4GL). Topics include code snippets, code examples, utility programs, tricks, techniques, and patterns. There are other groups for other more specific topics like Win32 API, OO programming, and specific programming tools.
Justus is a toolset for Progress 4GL that helps developers to increase quality of your projects. Justus includes a simplified 4GL parser and a test coverage tool to identify gaps on Test phase.
Future releases also include a search tool, white-box tests and dependency checker.
** Looking for Volunteers **

I know that this seems so simple, I am almost embarrassed to even post it. I know how to create super procedures, and run them persistently. Can someone give me an example of how to use the technique to replace the need for global shared variables? I know I am missing something here! Thanks.
Hi, All!
I defined shared vars in a class, then system showed error message "SHARED entities may not be defined in a Class or Interface." Can I create shared variable in the class?
EQN II is ready for release! Open Source symbolic mathematics library available for Progress ABL/4GL here http://bit.ly/hetmA3

I have been doing Openedge(10.1c) development on Linux(Ubuntu) for sometime now & I dearly miss OE Architect which was available on windows but not on Linux.

Hello.
I'm trying to output something to Excel and make some calculations.
Some (basic math) functions works.. some not.
See attached sample procedure - errors I get are listed in there.
I'm using OpenEdge 10.0B02 and there's Excel 2007 installed.
With Progress COM Object Viewer I can open EXCEL.EXE and XL5EN32.OLB
Thank you in advance,

Hi, Some One has an complete example of deploy and consumption od Web Services in Progress
Curious Question: Can I access/call or use Progress objects from .Net(c#) code? (P/Invoke?)
Example: I'm programming an application in .Net and I have my business logic coded in ABL objects, I would like to instantiate and use the ABL objects directly from c#.
Think of it as an "reverse .NET Bridge" or a "Progress Bridge"
I currently work at a company that uses both .Net and Progress extensively.
We have business logic code in Progress as well in .Net. (this will not change).

Hello everybody,
I have been researching and have successfully called a new progress form an existing 4GL window, however, I have not yet found the trick to make the form a child of the window. Is this possible?
