[AG-TECH] AG 2.2 Shared Apps

[Susanne Lefvert]

Hello Brian,

A 2.2 application should be able to connect to a 2.1.2 server.  This is my 
response to another email posted on ag-tech regarding log files.  The 
CmdlineApplication is a new feature in 2.2 and should fix your credential 
problem.  

Hope this helps,

Susanne

Hello Rob,

I am glad to hear that you are working on a shared application for the AG 
and would like to help you with your logging issue.  Apparently, log files 
for shared apps are not created properly and we are working to get that 
fixed.  In the mean time, you can use following code to test your app 
outside of the venue client:

from AccessGrid.Toolkit import CmdlineApplication
app = CmdlineApplication.instance()
app.Initialize("<appName>") 

# Url from app properties dialog in venue client (the 'Location 
# URL' field in the dialog that shows up when you right click the 
# application session you want to use and select 'Properties').
appUrl = 'https://<host>:<port>/....'

This will print errors to the console and create a log <appName>.log file 
where you are running your application.  Also, 
AccessGrid/tools/VenueApp.py in cvs shows you how to create an 
application session in the venue without using the venue client.         

Hope this helps,

Susanne
