Net Talk Version 8.58 & 8.59 Regressions

[Rob Kolanko]

Since upgrading from Net Talk 8.56 to 8.58 and 8.59, I have not been able to compile any Net Talk server applications including the examples. I receive theses compile errors on the Net Talk 8.59 NetWebBrowse procedures:
..\BasicWithMenu (2)\web2007.clw(1156,20) : Error : Field not found: JSONENCODE
..\BasicWithMenu (2)\web2007.clw(1156,13) : Error : Unknown procedure label
..\BasicWithMenu (2)\web2007.clw(1183,20) : Error : Field not found: JSONENCODE
..\BasicWithMenu (2)\web2007.clw(1183,13) : Error : Unknown procedure label
..\BasicWithMenu (2)\web2007.clw(1210,20) : Error : Field not found: JSONENCODE
..\BasicWithMenu (2)\web2007.clw(1210,13) : Error : Unknown procedure label
..\BasicWithMenu (2)\web2007.clw(1237,20) : Error : Field not found: JSONENCODE

The above errors are from the compile of the WEB2 example. They appear to be for a missing JSON functions. I do not own the JFILES accessory, but it is not required.

Thanks,

Get the latest StringTheory.

Thanks Peter, that fixed the problem.
I had just downloaded the String Theory 2.34 a few weeks ago when I upgraded to Net Talk 8.56, so I thought I had the latest version. The NetTalk version history did not say that String Theory 2.35 or higher is needed for Net Talk 8.58 and higher.   The Net Talk NetWebBrowse  has new code that appears to create the list in either HTML or JSON. Bruce, is this a prelude to a new feature? Enquiry minds wish to know.

a few _WEEKS_ ago? then you're almost guaranteed not to be on the latest one <g>...

True. But it's a good idea to keep it up to date anyway <g>...

>>  is this a prelude to a new feature? Enquiry minds wish to know.

maybe, maybe not. I'm experimenting with some things, but whether it pans out or not remains to be seen. Also it's more performance related than feature related, so likely the improvement would be invisible to you.

cheers

I had dreams that the JSON list was a feed to a Tree list control.<g>
