Hi,

 

I am an ISV partner and I am standing in an important milestone in which I have to decide whether to use Force.com side-bar ("recent items","create new" etc) in my application or remove it and suggest a good alternative.

 

Most parts of my Force.com application is written in Flex integrated into Force.com to execute some special behavior which I can't develop in VF or apex.

 

When I integrate Flex with Force.com the side bar functionality is not working properly, and now I am thinking to drop the side-bar.

I am aware that I'll probably loose some marketing/sales points since most clients would like to work in a standard manner towards Force.com applications, although in my case I feel I don't really have another option.

 

I will appreciate any thought on this matter, both marketing/sales and development thoughts

 

All the Best

Uri

 

 

Hello,

 

I am encountering some difficulties to expose my VisualForce tabs in the Force.com sidebar, I did the following:

 

- Created a new Visualforce tab - "Candidates"

 

- Assigned to it a VisualForce Page - "CandidatesPage"  (the page standardController is "Candidate__c")

 

Until here everything went smoothly and I could see the tab displayed properly.

 

When I try to use the sidebar to create new or view recent items of "Candidate' entity I see no  trace of such entity.

 

Why is that ?

 

The "CandidatesPage" code:

 

 

<apex:page tabStyle="Candidate__tab" standardController="Candidate__c" >

<h1>TEST</h1>

</apex:page>

 

 

 

Thanks

Uri

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi,

I am rather new the Force.com platform, I am trying to understand what is the best way to work with Apex to create my company site.

I currently use Eclipse 3.4.2 + Force.com perspective, so far I only created pages & controllers.

When I update the page or controller and try to save them using Eclipse the saving process can take more than 10 minutes.

I increased my DSL connection speed to 5Mbps, although I still wait more than 10 minutes for every save request.

Should I work with the online editors of force.com instead of Eclipse ?

Should I update Eclipse to 3.5 ? or downgrade to 3.3 ?

Should I define something in Eclipse to speed "save" time ?

I would really appreciate any assistance or tip

Thanks
Uri

Hi,

 

I am developing application ontop of force.com using eclipse 3.4.2 with force.com plugin.

 

I am currently working from 2 diffenet locations, when I work from home I am facing connection issues when conducting operations like saving "pages","controllers" or simply "refresh from server".

 

Eclipse "Progress" displays the followig messge (for few minutes) for simple save operation:

'Polling Server 'na7-api.salesforce.com' for response(2)'

 

When issuing netstat command I can see that I have an established connecton

 

 TCP    uri:3062               na7-api-sjl.salesforce.com:https  ESTABLISHED

 

When I work from my office the responsivness is much faster (few seconds)

 

 

Do you have any ideas how can I speed up the communication between eclipse & salesforce.com servers?

 

 

Appreciate your assistance
