Manual Appendixes

Keycodes table

This appendix contains the list of keycodes Convertigo can send to any HTML object through a Key statement.

Date format - Usable symbols

This appendix contains the list of usable symbols for formatting dates.

Date and time formats are specified by date and time pattern strings. Within date and time pattern strings, unquoted letters from ‘A’ to ‘Z’ and from ‘a’ to ‘z’ are interpreted as pattern letters representing the components of a date or time string.

Text can be quoted using single quotes (‘) to avoid interpretation. “’’” represents a single quote. All other characters are not interpreted; they’re simply copied into the output string during formatting or matched against the input string during parsing.

The following pattern letters are defined (all other characters from ‘A’ to ‘Z’ and from ‘a’ to ‘z’ are reserved):

Convertigo paths variables - Usable symbols

This appendix contains the list of Convertigo paths variables available in Site Clipper objects using replacement strings. In replacement string properties, you can use specific symbols, that will allow you to compute in runtime some well known paths.

The following symbols are available:

Table A - 3: Convertigo paths variables - Usable Symbols

In order to use such symbols, just add $< symbol >$ into your replacement string value. You can use as many symbols as you want and at any location. All symbols are computed accordingly to the current project/connector/context. You can use them in order to make the objects using replacement strings more maintainable and simplier. This is also useful because you do not have to deal with project name (it can change for instance between a development environment and a production one). This makes your string replacements dynamic.

Examples

Let’s say Convertigo receives the following Site Clipper request:

The previously described variables are computed with the following values:

• $project_path$ = “/convertigo/projects/my_project”
• $siteclipper_path$ = “/convertigo/projects/my_project/connector=my_connector,context=my_context.siteclipper”
• $host_path$ = “/convertigo/projects/my_project/connector=my_connector,context=my_context.siteclipper/http/remote_host,18080”
• $tail_path$ = “/convertigo/projects/my_project/connector=my_connector,context=my_context.siteclipper/http/remote_host,18080/remote/path”

Legacy emulator actions table

An action is a special keystroke that an emulator can execute as ENTER or SOMMAIRE. This appendix contains the list of the valid emulator actions Convertigo can send to Javelin emulator, depending on the emulator type.
