This is what we did with GoSign v3.0 Configurator Generates a WebViewer They copy the useful code, use BaseElements to turn it into XML and then store it a database or a text file for easy retrieval later. Whats done less often is to generate the proper XML format for something like a Script or a Layout Object from scratch, and convert that to the clipboard object and paste.
#Baseelements filemaker plugin runtime code#
This feature is often used bey developers to create libraries of little code snippets that they use all the time. BaseElements can take the clipboard objects and turn it into xml and it can take properly formatted XML and turn it into a valid clipboard object that can be pasted back into FileMaker. It is almost exactly the same schema as the one used by the FileMaker Database Design Report. The formats are basically data object wrapped around an XML representation of the FileMaker code. BaseElements has the ability to read and write that format. We used this to add a hidden feature to our GoSign Configurator to make integrations even easier.įileMaker has a special clipboard format that it uses when you copy and paste things like scripts, custom functions, layouts, etc. Among it’s dozens of useful features is the ability to create FileMaker code in the form of ClipBoard objects and place them on the clipboard so you can paste them into your solution.
BaseElements is very powerful free plugin from Goya.
