Now it's time to decide! There are a few spots left, so be sure that you have one of them! 

Hello everyone!

A lot of Servoy releases, updates, posts and news have past the scene since ServoyCamp in 2009.
Now we're in full boost approaching a brand new DevCon ServoyCamp 2011!

Three Packed DevCon Days
This ServoyCamp will again be packed with: hands-on sessions, classes and preso's. We've got great Servoy 6 hands-on sessions, using Servoy for Mobile devices, Reporting, SVN and much, much more on schedule!

Great speakers and Servoy staff present
We already got great speakers on schedule and Servoy staff will be present on all three days, so there is enough brainfood for every Servoy Developer available.
Not to forget: ServoyCamp also includes fun activities in the evening times.
Imagine you, as Servoy Developer, not being there!? Unthinkable!

When using dbidenty as sequence type in Servoy for your PostgreSQL table you are in fact using a sequence object inside the PostgreSQL database.

Servoy queries this sequence object when it creates a new record for you and stores it in the PK column.

Now sometimes this sequence might be out of sync because you imported data (with PK values) that have higher values than the sequence or perhaps you want to reset the sequence after a big purge of your data.

PostgreSQL has a simple command to update the sequence using SQL:

SELECT setval('sequenceName', value); 

So you could use SQL to get the correct value for your  sequence:

SELECT setval('sequenceName', (SELECT MAX(pkColumn) FROM tableName)+1);

Of course if you need to update ALL your sequences in your database this will be a daunting task, especially when you still modeling your tables.

Sure it's easy to fetch all sequence names but then you still need to parse it all into usable SQL that you can fire off at your database.

Turns out that this is an old problem. Michael Fuhr, a PostgreSQL community member, already solved this in 2004 in a post to the pgsql-general mailing list.

We have an important announcement to make! 

Some FoxPro developers who want to join us at ServoyCamp 2011, have contacted us, due to the fact that there is a Foxpro DEVCON conference in Frankfurt (Germany) on the EXACT same dates. After much investigation, phonecalls, emails to the already registered people, we have decided to move ServoyCamp Conference 2011 by one week!

So PLEASE update your agenda's & calendars, the new dates for ServoyCamp 2011 are:

17,18 & 19 November 2011

Please be aware, that we have already people, joining us, from 6 different countries, and registrations are going fast!! We have limited seats (approx. 100) So be sure, that you are one of them!

A reliable source discovered some code in Servoy revealing support of a new HTML Editor in next release of Servoy 5!

The reason why some issues could occur (I'm never using the word 'bug' ;-) ), is a wrong plugin version on the application server, or even worse, a required plugin is not installed at all.

This is a handy way to display plugins info in the client: a dialog that shows all installed plugins, including version (if available):
