Hi, I've just uploaded the first edition of the intranet ocx to mi4.biz This easy to use control allows you to make Intranet apps very easily. It contains the...
Hi All, After the recent good press on the ukha_d, it has again highlighted some of the issues facing xAP at this present time. I'll quote from Kevins e-mail...
Hi All I have been trying to make a display for xAP Desktop and found a problem. I am not sure if this is a bug or a design feature. I am trying to use the...
Hi Paul, SetxAPVar and GetxAPVar let you access and set the data associated with a display. These are the same as the xAPvar= line in a display.txt file. They...
Hi James Thanks for the clarification. I have been looking at the example / template desktops on you website. The only one I can find that accesses the xAP...
Hi, I'd like to confirm that the vendor code of "mhouse" is acceptable for use by the Misterhouse application. I'm somewhat assuming that Bruce made the...
Hi, AFAIK mhouse is fine - in fact I am not sure who is administering the allocations but I'm sure they'll speak up if it's not. Within the current UID sizing...
... Thanks Kevin. Currently, the UID is settable. But, I'm pretty certain that a very large majority of the users won't think to look or change it if it were...

... I think it is very important to try and maintain the UID assignments you have previously advertised or used. Take for example a light that might monitor...
Kevin/Stuart, Thanks for the replies. My comments embedded below. ... Ok--I will have to make the assignments persist. What I now understand is that I will...

... Thanks Kevin. Can you suggest any likelihood (yeah--I know--crystal ball) of this occurring in the near (< 2 months) future? I'm sure such a change...
... I dont expect this within the 'near' future and as you say existing apps (may) need code changes. The existing main developers are aware of it though and...
Hello all. I'm developing an Ethernet controller that should be compliant with the BSC xAP schema. According with the xAP standard, which is the best way of...
