I am trying to create an app for a client as a part of move to Unified Interface. When I try to create the app from App Designer, I see the unique name as "new_xxxx". I want to change the "new_" part to "xyz_". How do I accomplish this?
I want to change the highlighted part.
change name of provider
Create a new solution or use an existing solution to build a new Model driven app. Make sure right publisher is used on solution to get the desired prefix (non new_).

For a Web Service framework I am currently working on I'd like to add the possibility to test the generic Json services based on their metadata. It should be possible to dynamically build a view to let users test available Web Services. Is there a provision or some supported way to generate views dynamically in Play? if not and supposing that I simply make a template and generate it on the fly, how can this view be injected into the application at runtime?
I will be happy to see documentation/examples/pointers that could help develop such solution ...
I am assuming that you want to create a scala.html and use it on somewhere by taking the html created, is that?
If you create a scala template myView.scala.html then on MyController you can call views.html.myView.render().body(); Then you would have the html created by the template.
Template Documentation
I do all development in a single application. when a new version is ready I create a template and give it a version number. this way I can store a history of all previous versions.
the development templates are used to push the new design to many applications via replace design.
Creating manual version number or template names is fine but I am looking for a more automatic way of finding out which build the different applications are inherited from
When I visit the different applications I would like to be able to see which build number each application are inherited from. is this possible?
A simple build time stamp could do, but is there a built in build number that can be used and that can be displayed on the xpage.
e.g Build 2012092712345
Update:
Thank you for all your answers, many good suggestions but it looks like all require manual work.
The best solution would be if there is a way to read (from ssjs) a timestamp from any file within the nsf that is always updated during a build. is this possible?
In classic notes, there was a method to add a shared field with a special name to the application. Cannot remember the details, but have it somewhere on the disk.
Then you can see the build number in the design tab of the application properties. And you can of course display the value in your applikation as well.
But you have to fill the item manually on each build. Or use teamstudio Buildmanager. This tool adds the value automatically.
And I also guess that you can write some code that changes the value whenever you create a new build.
Another option would be to use a versioning system like CVS/SVN. This is possible since 8.5.3.
Source control
I think I know what you are meaning. Your a pushing out design and want to check thru code what version each database has. I usually do this with a Build form. In this form I have computed fields with all the data I want to retrieve. Then I open the database with an agent create a document
and set the form field to "BuildForm" and do a computewithform.
Now I can see all information about this database.
I once wrote a rudimentary build system for "classic" Notes, and had the last part of the build pipeline create a form named _BUILDID_, and put the build id in the $Comment field.
The main reason to create a form instead of a shared field was that I could dynamically fetch the form using NotesDatabase.Forms, and open up the desired field.
I sure hope there are simpler solutions nowadays... :-)
I'm building an iPhone app that will be branded for several different companies. Each company will get their own app. The code base is the same. Really, the only thing that will be different between them are the app name, app icon, default image, and a few images used inside the app. Is there a best practice to automate this? I am pursuing scripting everything and have some preliminary scripts somewhat working, but it occurred to me there may be a simpler way with Xcode 4.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
You'll need to create a new workspace and add a new project for every own app. You won't need to create all classes for every project. Just create a "core" project with your code base and add his files by reference to the custom projects.
i have same scenario , in which we maintain a global-config File which contain all UI Elements like NavBar , Buttons everything , as we have same layout for all clients , so we maintain a same layout with different color Theme the client choose,.
so for distribution , we change the settings in global file , then add the Client Provision ,& will send for review.
Hope this Helps
Let's say we have a mobile app (iPhone, Android) already deployed and being used by people.
Is it possible to change text on buttons, title bars, or even shape or colour of these things without a major update? What I mean is, do we have to deploy an update to the whole app (for example, new version) in order to change one single text on the button? Or maybe these things (settings) can be stored in some kind of database or XML?
Help me out on this one please. Thanks a million.

No. You have to deploy a new version, even if you want to change a single thing like that.
It's possible to do changes to an existing app without deploying a new version, but in your case it's not possible. This is how it works:
You create a mechanism to check for new updates.
New updates can be new data, new settings, etc.
You make your app download and use that new data.
The problem here is that you have to have already deployed an app that do the steps above. Since your app currently does not have that implemented, there's no way to do any changes to it but updating it.
You have to update your app. I implemented the consumption of a JSON string recently to display a Message of the Day periodically. It also keeps a "low watermark" that I compare against the user's running version. If their version is too old I present them with 2 options: upgrade or quit.
You could as easily make your text work in the same way. Just be sure to keep a local cache in case they don't have network access. Will require some healthy refactoring.
you are able to store the text of buttons in values/Strings.xml and set them to the controls by text="#String/text_for_buttonxy" . This is grat for multiple languages, because you are able to put the Strings.xml in a country-code ending value folder like values-de values-en or values-fr in order to get the right String based on the phonesettungs.
Vor colors you are able to to the same thing with the colors.xml.
But you won't be able to change this xml file by synchronisation with a server, this will be a litte bit more complicated, please explain how to you want to change the settings.
Hope you all are fine and are in your best of moods.
I herewith one doubt to ask you, kindly help me by giving its solution.
I need to add one custom field in existing built in Contact Application of iPhone.
I mean i need to allow user to set different icon or Logo for different contact.
so i need to add one field namely icon or Logo in existing application.
But I don't know how to do this, weather it is possible or not or is there any alternate solution for that or not???
kindly post your Answers.
Thanks in Advance.
You cannot add fields to the built in Address Book datastore. You could perhaps achieve your goals by one of two solutions:
make a copy of the data and add your data to that. You will hit sync problems
Use some property (perhaps ABPropertyID) of the AB information to key a local database referencing your icons.
I'm assuming what you actually want to do is add an icon to the address book app - there is certainly no way to do that.
