Is WinUserNotificationMBS what I think it is? A way of showing those (annoying) notifications popping up on Windows 10?

4

Yes :slight_smile:

Christian is The Man! :slight_smile:

In this release i liked 2 additions. first is the windows notification and second is the print pdf using print dialog.

Thanks Christian

Thanks.
The print dialog for DynaPDF is due to the problems we have printing with Graphics object from Xojo.

Notification on Windows 8.1 is working, but not with Windows 10.

[quote=324409:@Horst Jehle]Notification on Windows 8.1 is working, but not with Windows 10.

I am using Windows 10 64 bit and its working for me. May be you have disabled the notification from the system setting.

Works fine here with win10

Maybe Christian needs to add a method “NotificationIsAvalailable”

11

I’ll change the exception to include the error code from Windows.
Maybe we get different codes for various things. e.g. permission denied.

And you can format error number with GetWindowsErrorMessageMBS.

  • Redone option properties on TidyDocumentMBS.

  • Removed PPC code.
  • Updated OpenSSL to 1.1.0e and 1.0.2k

@Christian Schmitz,

Does WinUserNotificationMBS class send a notification to all PCs? I’m more interested in sending notifications to individual PCs via IP address or PC Name. I don’t want to send a notification to a PC that my notification is not intended for.

Cheers
Grant

It’S only for local notifications.

To send messages over network on windows clients you can use the command “msg”

C:\>msg
Send a message to a user.

MSG {username | sessionname | sessionid | @filename | *}
[/SERVER:servername] [/TIME:seconds] [/V] [/W] [message]

username Identifies the specified username.
sessionname The name of the session.
sessionid The ID of the session.
@filename Identifies a file containing a list of usernames,
sessionnames, and sessionids to send the message to.

  •               Send message to all sessions on specified server.

/SERVER:servername server to contact (default is current).
/TIME:seconds Time delay to wait for receiver to acknowledge msg.
/V Display information about actions being performed.
/W Wait for response from user, useful with /V.
message Message to send. If none specified, prompts for it
or reads from stdin.
