Baan/LN Way - Live Cricket Scores - Powered by Yahoo Pipes! World Cup 2015!!

bhushanchanda · #1 22nd January 2015, 15:55

Hi,

So, this utility is for the ones who wants to -

1. Connect LN with Cricket
2. Who wants to know the XML Parsing in LN
3. Who wants to know the concepts of pipes.
4. Who wants to know about curl usage.

So, here it goes.

1. Create a 3GL Script.
2. Copy the attached code.
3. Run it.

You can use it in whichever you like i.e. creating display session, report, dialogue etc maintaining the terms & conditions noted.

This utility uses Yahoo Pipes to generate the XML of the live cricket scores and stores it on server. LN takes care of parsing and showing the results.

So, have fun! :)

Note- File name is currently Windows compliant. Change it according to the server.

Hi bhushanchanda,
I was run your 3gl and getting error message "couldn't resolve host name".
Is there any solution for this?

Hi,

Make sure your server is connected to the internet.

Try to run this link on your server browser to see if you get an xml view.

Hi,

Check if you have not mistyped any thing in that URL. Alao, try to run the program from Server and check the result.
