Understanding renaming/moving files with git
Source code files are living things. We add new ones and change their content on daily basis. Occasionally we delete them, too. Git is amazingly efficient when it comes to tracking these kinds of changes. However, sometimes we need to change the file name, or file path, or both.

How to replace DotNet in AL
A lot of us still have a ton of C/AL code sitting around in existing databases that sooner or later will have to be moved into AL. A lot of us also have a ton of AL code using DotNet that we want to be able to run in Microsoft’s cloud (that is: not on-prem).

Migrating Control Add-ins from C/SIDE to AL
Thanks to everyone who watched my live stream today! The audience wasn’t big, but it’s a very narrow topic, not of broad interest. Still, I am glad I got a few interesting questions that actually introduced my future topics quite nicely.

Vjeko.com goes live
It’s time to turn a new page. You’ve noticed that I’ve been absent for a long time. No posts, no activity. Well, blogging takes time, and I am a sort of a perfectionist.

How about Rollback in AL?

There is a universe of difference between throwing an error (and ending the call stack), and rolling back (and continuing execution). There was always a way to roll back and go on, sure.

Tip: Text constants in AL
Long time no see, but that’s how it gets every now and then, I guess… Anyway, I am still alive, still kicking, just don’t get to blog as much as I’d hope for, it’s work, and life and universe and everything. So, I am back with not a typical “Vjeko” post, just a simple AL […]

Images fixed on vjeko.com
You might have noticed that I had some problems with pictures on this blog. Some posts simply didn’t show any of them, and I’ve got quite some reports that they aren’t working. Unfortunately, I’ve been so busy recently that I really didn’t have time to look into it.

Searching the unsearchable, episode 2
True, there was no episode 1, not on this blog. But if Star Wars can start with episode 4, I don’t see why can’t I start with episode 2. Especially when Waldo has already written episode 1. So yes – apparently, up until a few minutes ago – with the new theme my blog has […]
