  • 1.  On demand portable gel scripts

    Posted Dec 14, 2015 11:34 AM

    Hi

     

    There are certain gel scripts that we use on our on-premise Clarity application which use <sql:update> tags and directly update the database.

    These are at various places on the scripts, upon different if-else conditions (as per logic), they are used.

     

    We are looking to replace these "Update" statements with XOG or any other approach which will make these gel scripts acceptable on on-demand.

    Are there any best practices for these replacements?

    Is XOG the only way to replace these or there are any other ways?

     

    Please advise.

     

    Thanks

    Arnab

    Hi,

     

    Your sql:update tags will still work on an On Demand system and there are times when they have to be used as there are no other options.

     

    Best practice would be to use system actions and XOG and consider using other means when the supported no longer work.
