Security MattersBram Nijenkamp, Data Access Worldwide

As a software developer, security demands continuous learning, updating and testing. Bram provides clear insights in authorization, authentication and verification. How does OpenID Connect and oAuth relate, and how does it fit DataFlex? Another important security topic discussed will be how to create a highly secure environment for allowing people to upload files to a web portal using the new Secure Upload library in DataFlex. And finally, how can you share highly confidential information quickly, using a very secure method.

"Second time lucky"Peter Bragg, CMAC Computer Systems Limited

Creating great looking applications with DataFlex has never been easier, especially since the introduction of FlexTron. But why stop there? Why not go that extra mile and start getting creative by adding icons to your UI to really make it sing. The use of Font Icons allows you to do just that, and you don't have to be a CSS or HTML expert either. Peter Bragg uses FontAwesome, the world’s most popular icon set and toolkit in his applications, and will demonstrate how you too can quickly and painlessly add icons to things like cWebGroup Captions, cWebTagPage tabs and even cWebList placeholder text.

Built-in Screen RecordingJakob Kruse, Sture Aps

Tired of users of your application reporting "It doesn’t work", "Nothing happens when I click", or a screenshot that doesn’t show what you need? Jakob will show how to build screen recording into your application, so the users can send you a video showing the problem. And do so, without users ever leaving your application, installing separate software or figuring out how to upload videos. All from DataFlex, using a (free) custom component that also lets you record from camera and microphone devices. This is smart!!

09:30 - 10:00
WebApp Framework EvolutionNiels de Boer, Data Access Worldwide

Learn how the JavaScript Engine and the CSS themes evolved in DataFlex 2025 with the usage of ES6 Classes and CSS Variables. They provide a more structured and readable way to define objects and manage inheritance in JavaScript. Learn what this means for your custom controls and your applications.

DFXray - A development companionSture Andersen, Sture Aps

cWebAppBusinessProcessPeter Bragg, CMAC Computer Systems Limited

How do you run a large, iterative process from your WebApp without running into browser timeout issues? Typically one might start a secondary background process and a timer to check when the process is completed. However, Peter Bragg's new cWebAppBusinessProcess class might just provide an alternative option. In this presentation, Peter will explain all and demonstrate how easily this new class can be incorporated into your existing WebApps.
