Dataface 1.3.2 3355 and lookup widget dynamic filter

[mjtempesta]

Hi, I am using version Dataface 1.3.2 3355 and I am unable to get dynamic filters to work on a lookup widget. Basically, I have a table of suppliers, as well as a table of items. After selecting a supplier, the item table should only show items with a matching supplier_id. instead, the lookup returns nothing.
After going through the forum and the documentation, it appears this is available in 1.3.1. I have 1.3.2. I also see numerous references to 1.4, 1.5, as well as ver 2. Does this mean that 1.4 is stable? And, if so, where can I get it? Can I go straight to v2?

thanks!
Mike

Hi Mike,

I know the Xataface releases are probably confusing. The next major release of Xataface will be version 2.0. Version 1.3.x is the latest "frozen" release currently (i.e. it will not have any features added - just bugfixes). Any reference to a version 1.x greater than 1.3 (e.g. 1.4, 1.5, etc..) basically just mean that they require features that are not available in 1.3 but will be available in 2.0.

There are branches in the repository for 1.5.x and 1.9.x which are basically just tie-down points for some projects that were developed off the trunk. I haven't had a lot of time lately to put a 2.0 release together. There are still some features that I would like to get in there before I release it.

The only way to get 2.0 is through SVN
http://weblite.ca/svn/dataface/core/trunk
The actual release will include the g2 module as well, which isn't included by default in the trunk
http://weblite.ca/svn/dataface/modules/g2/trunk
(The g2 module overhauls the look and feel of the application).

Thanks Steve!
I downloaded all of the files from the repository. I am now at 1.9 3856. So far, everything seems to be working perfectly. The dynamic filters are working perfectly in this version.
thanks again!
