DebugLogMode (from version 4.1)

Indicates the level of detail of debug information that is logged when running a Futurama application (website, webservice, console application) to the trace, a logfile, a database etc. The possible values are:

• None: no debug information is logged
• Simple: only basic information is given
• Extended: in addition to the information in the Simple mode the values of all the properties of the object are shown

FileName

The property FileName contains the name of the file after the download. Make sure the correct extension is used.

IsPublic

Possible values are True or False. If the value is False, then the object can only be used within the document where it is created. If the value is True, then also from other Futurama documents can be referred to this object. This means that changes in the object also affect the document in which is referred to this object. If the value is True and you attempt to move or delete the object, a warning will be given. To limit these warnings to a minimum it is recommended to set IsPublic to True only when necessary.

OpenMode (obsolete: Renamed into BrowserAction in version 18.02)

This property can have the values 'OpenInBrowser' or 'OpenAsAttachment'. When 'OpenInBrowser' is chosen the file will be opened directly in a new window of the browser. When 'OpenAsAttachment' is chosen the file will be opened in the application that is associated with the extension of the file.

Source

The source represents the contents of the file that is downloaded. In particular this property has to refer to a Base64 string. Any string can be converted to a Base64 string by using the function ConvertToBase64. Any fileformat can be converted to a Base64 string by using the function ReadFileAsBase64.

The name of the object.

Comment
