BMXNET 4.0 Developer API

DataTableFutures are created synchrounously when Async calls are made on a RemoteSession. A DataTabelFuture is used to manage each async call and has a variety of methods to support the relativelty long and dynamic lifecycle and an Async call.

 MemberDescription
DataTableFuture()()()
Aborted
Cancel()()()
Method to cancel the Async call. This does not stop the server-side processing. The Aborted event will be called immediately.
Equals(Object) (Inherited from Object.)
ErrorException
Access to any exceptions that occur during Async call.
Finalize()()() (Inherited from Object.)
FutureTime
The time the async call returned (the future)
GetHashCode()()() (Inherited from Object.)
GetType()()() (Inherited from Object.)
HasData
Answer true if the data has been fetched from the server and is ready to be used by the application.
HasReturned
Answer true if the Async call has completed on the server and that a result is ready.
HasTimedOut
Answer true if the Async call has timeed-out (a time-based version of Cancel)
InvokedControl
IsAutoFetchEnabled
If set to true the result will be fetched before the Returned event is called, otherwise the Returned event will be triggered and the application code needs to call PostFetch() to retrieve the result. True by default.
MaxWaitTime
Number of seconds to wait for an async response before returning without a response.
MemberwiseClone()()() (Inherited from Object.)
PostFetch()()()
If IsAutoFetchEnabled is false, then the results must be fetched synchrounously useding PostFetch(). Call PostFetch() once and check if HasData is true. If not true, there is was error related to the async call.
PresentTime
The time the Future was created.
Result
The result table if any, or null.
ResultAppContext
The AppContext that the async call was made with
ResultDataSet
The data set the result data table is in.
ResultKey
ResultTableName
Returned
Triggered with the async returns, see DataTableFutureEventArgs to know if there is a result waiting. It's very common to hook the Returned event after each Async call and then unhook it when the Returned or Aborted calls return.
ToString()()() (Inherited from Object.)
TriggerAbortedEvent()()()
TriggerReturnedEvent()()()
WaitTime
How long in milliseconds the Async call took to complete.
WasCancelled
Answer true if canceled. It's common that a dialog would allow the user to cancel the Async call and the Dialog that is holding on the the Future will cancel the Future. Cancelling the Future does not stop the server-side processing but when the server returns nothing will happen.

Remarks

Beware that all return communications are not on the UI thread unless an InvokedControl is specify.
