Hello, I might try one day to create a Webdev site, but I'm a very curious person, and I need to know what I'm doing before diving in. I thought about using AWP pages, I've read the online doc saying what this is about, how it globally works and all, but I would really like to know more specific things. For instance, what does AWP language look like? Can I code, or at least seee the code of an AWP page? Also, what technology is AWP based on? PHP, Ajax, an in-house interpreter to install on the server? Is AWP secure? Is windows server the only server OS supported for AWP? Finally, where can I find a tutorial, doc, or support for technical question? Thanks for reading ..and sorry for bad english |

Hi Simon,
I might try one day to create a Webdev site, but I'm a very curious person, and I need to know what I'm doing before diving in. I thought about using AWP pages, I've read the online doc saying what this is about, how it globally works and all, but I would really like to know more specific things.
For instance, what does AWP language look like? Can I code, or at least seee the code of an AWP page?
There is no such thing as awp language... You create your pages visually, in the webdev editor, and you add your code in wlanguage, just likein windev. The compiler then transform that code: - in P-code or intermediate code for the server code - in JS for the browser side code.
Also, what technology is AWP based on? PHP, Ajax, an in-house interpreter to install on the server?
The webdev application server is installed on the server, it creates the pages on the fly, based on the execution of the server side code. That is true both for awp pages and classic/intranet ones (there are 3 modes available in webdev, classic/intranet, awp/extranet and PHP).
> Is AWP secure?
Yes... there is no text/source available on the server, only awp pages (not in clear) that will be interpreted when needed by the webdev engine.
Is windows server the only server OS supported for AWP?
No, linux is also available but way less used, as there doesn't seem to be that many people familiar with linux in the windev/webdev world.
Finally, where can I find a tutorial, doc, or support for technical question?
Webdev comes with a tutorial. There are several sites selling courses (text and or video), the windev.com web site includes quite a lot of free videos, etc, etc, etc The mysnip forum (http://27130.foren.mysnip.de/list.php…) is the main English exchange place.
Thanks for reading ...and sorry for bad english

Ok thank you very much for your answer, this made me realize I had no idea what Webdev really is. For me, Webdev is a bundle of WYSIWYG HTML/CSS page editor, and coming with dynamic features like PHP or AWP, AWP having the same role as PHP. Am I right? Also, I realized I omitted a question in my last post: Can I choose my HTTP server, or do I have to use Apache? By this I mean, is there an easier integration for a particular http server? Thank you very much for answering all my previous questions by the way |

Hi Simon,
Comparing things is never easy..
Ok thank you very much for your answer, this made me realize I had no idea what Webdev really is. For me, Webdev is a bundle of WYSIWYG HTML/CSS page editor, and coming with dynamic features like PHP or AWP, AWP having the same role as PHP. Am I right?
I suppose so... but first you have to stop talking about "awp" that way, as awp is just one of the modes available in webdev...
By example, webdev can also generate php pages... and it's still webdev, even if it is limited in a number of aspects..
This is how webdev works: - on the editor side, wisiwig editor, and code editor - on the execution side: for each URL, webdev is going to generate an html page by running the code, and doing all it's required to do (like php would do). However, contrary to php, the code is not sitting on the server, only intermediate code in a proprietary format and this code is executed by the webdev virtual machine for each page.
Also, I realized I omitted a question in my last post: Can I choose my HTTP server, or do I have to use Apache? By this I mean, is there an easier integration for a particular http server? Thank you very much for answering all my previous questions by the way
Webdev includes an automatic installer/setup for IIS and apache. It does most of the work but it's generally easier with IIS (there are many versions/install/configurations for apache). However, it can work with any web server, so if you are familiar enough with one that you can setup things by hand, then it should be your choice. If not, I would advise for Windows+IIS

Thank you very much for your answers Fabrice, I'll keep Webdev in mind when I will eventually start my project. I might come back in this thread later on though, as I may require some more assistance. Once again thanks for the support |
