2. New Tech Note Available
MD5 Algorithm Implemented in 4D v11 SQL
Nowadays more and more businesses are conducted over the internet, and
security for changing information is becoming a problem. This is the
time when encryption algorithms come in handy. 4D developers also want
to implement some of the well known encryption algorithms in their
databases. Some of these algorithms are already written in JavaScript
code. 4D v11 SQL release 2 offers tools for developers to implement
JavaScript code in a 4D database. This Technical Note explains how
easy
it is to implement JavaScript code in 4D. In our examples we use an
MD5
encryption algorithm. The hash function of this algorithm is written
in
JavaScript and we will implement this function in 4D. There are two
examples, and they show the algorithm in a 4D Web area and a 4D form.
This is only a sample of the many valuable tech notes that are
available
to 4D Partners. There are many more advantages to becoming a 4D
partner,

*2. Take the Web Development Plunge with 4D Intro to JavaScript*
JavaScript is the brain behind most commercial websites that exist
today. We recommend this class to effectively take take advantage of
the
many benefits of using 4D Web Pack 2.0.
This class is a great launching point to get you started in learning
JavaScript and is also a great primer to the 4D Ajax Framework class.
In
JavaScript, here is what you will learn:
* Concepts and uses of JavaScript - the language that is taking
the
web by storm
* Examples of JavaScript variables, objects, arrays, and object
oriented programming
After taking this class, you will walk away with enough knowledge to
begin developing custom web applications with 4D JavaScript.
For the intense developer who is serious about making an immediate
impact, we recommend combining this class with our popular Intro to 4D
Ajax Framework <http://www.4d.com/support/4DAFintro.html> class. You
can
save money by signing up for both. Click here
<http://www.4d.com/support/trainingdeals.html> for more info.
The next 4D Intro to JavaScript class is scheduled for December 9,
2008.

*4. New Tech Note Available*
4D v11 Pass-Through without ODBC
Since the introduction of 4D v11 SQL and prior to 4D v11 SQL 11.3, the
only way to exchange data between two 4D databases was through the 4D
v11 SQL ODBC driver or through dedicated Web Services. Using ODBC as
the
communications channel there were significant limitations and a speed
tax imposed. Using Web Services as the communications channel there is
significant time consuming development involved. Beginning with 4D
v11.3
SQL there is now a native communications channel between 4D Servers
and
4D Professional applications that provides great flexibility and a
huge
boost in communications speed.
This is only a sample of the many valuable tech notes that are
available
to 4D Partners. There are many more advantages to becoming a 4D
