Steve Wilmes Consulting has announced the release of his Developer's Cards book for FileMaker Pro 11. The set of cards offer a detailed reference that has every FileMaker function, error code, script step and more on three coil-bound double-sided-8 1/2 x 11 inch (A4)-laminated cards.
What's new: Now includes pages on PHP Classes/Methods, FileMaker Server Event Codes, and common unicode values. Also highlights all the changes to functions, script steps, server commands, and script triggers added in FileMaker Pro 11.
Description: The Developer's Cards for FileMaker Pro 11 makes it easier for FileMaker developers by providing the "whole picture of all the functions and script steps at a glance" with as much detail as possible. Often developers work with multiple versions of FileMaker - each function and script step listed on the cards are color-coded to match the FileMaker version with which it was released. The cards detail every function, error code and script step from FileMaker 6 through 11.
Card One goes in-depth describing functions and script steps. The card highlights functions that are case-sensitive, require the return character to separate values, use []s to separate multiple values and operate differently when hosted. For Script Steps it highlights which script steps are available over the Web, available when hosted on FileMaker Server and which are Mac/Windows only.
Card Two has all of the FileMaker error codes (returned by Get(LastError) function) and goes in-depth on the GetLayoutObjectAttribute function, custom functions and recursion. It also has all of FileMaker PHP Classes & Methods for those who use FileMaker Custom Web Publishing.
Card Three contains common roman unicode charaters and their decimal/hexidecimal values. These can be used when capturing keystrokes for script triggers. It also includes all of the FileMaker Server Event Log messages, port numbers used by FileMaker and other applications, FileMaker Server command line codes, script trigger precedence, FileMaker limits, common developer keyboard shortcuts and diagrams the Get(Window) functions.
Pricing and Availability: The Developer's Cards For FileMaker Pro 11 are available immediately for $19.95 (USD) with free shipping anywhere on planet earth.
