Log Publishing; Now has a limited 'Unattended' mode

Publishing of Logs now has a limited 'Unattended' mode.

When publishing any type of Document Log, the finLogPublishItems business layer object simply raises events for each batch of Logs being published and lets the finPOWER Connect User Interface handle the actual publishing.

In the case of Word VBA and Excel VBA type Documents, this is fine since they can only be published in a desktop environment.

However, for other types of Document, e.g., Script type Documents, this is unnecessary and hinders the use of publishing Documents outside of the finPOWER Connect User Interface, e.g., from Web Services.

A new 'UnattendedPublish' flag has been added to the finLogPublishItems object. This allows publishing of certain types of Document to occur without the finPOWER Connect User Interface being present.

Currently, unattended publishing is limited to the following types of Document:

  • Script

The following Log objects have been updated to take an optional 'unattendedPublish' parameter for the Publish method:

  • finAccountLog
  • finAccountAppLog
  • finClientLog
  • finUserLog
