This page is a work in progress.
Neoxam comes with many built-in tools to aide in development and troubleshooting. I will cover some of the key tools below.
SQL Window
This window allows a user to execute SQL commands against the Neoxam database. I would recommend disabling access to this window via configuration settings since the commands execute as the application id. Instead, I recommend accessing the database via a tool such as SQL Developer. This way you have more granular control over the permissions granted to individual users. You will still need some administrative users to have elevated privileges in order to clean up data and tables.
Evaluator
This window allows a user to execute scripts written in the Neoxam scripting language. These scripts can be used to stage or clean up test data, debug a scheduled task job, and test out code snippets. Using the debugger with the evaluator is very helpful when tracing an error.
Debugger
After opening the debugger, you have to enable it in the right side bar. You can set breakpoints by double-clicking on the left margin of the line you would like to place it on. You can also enable and disable breakpoints via the checkboxes found in the right side bar (you will only see them if you have one or more breakpoints set).

Neoxam: Administrative System Screens
This page is a work in progress.
Network Statistics
This screen shows the processes running on each Smart Planet and Scheduler. Regular users should not have access to this screen as it provides the ability to shutdown servers and disconnect clients. This screen also provides the ability to move clients between servers, display IP addresses, and display ports for the servers.
Scheduled Tasks
This screen displays the configuration of scheduled tasks. You can see the name of the rule being called, parameters being passed to that rule, and the schedule that the task should execute on.
Job Reports
This screen displays the results of scheduled tasks that were executed. You can view the output in the bottom of the screen, view the location of the log, and what scheduler executed the task. Successfully executed tasks show a green check. Executing tasks show a grey gear. Failed tasks show a red X.

Neoxam: Operators
This page is a work in progress.
Assignment
:= is used for assigning values to variables. If you are used to Java or other langauges that use the
equal sign, then this will take some getting used to.
?= is used to assign the right side value to the left side variable if the left side variable is empty.
Comparison
> returns true if the left side of the operator is numerically greater than the right side.
< returns true if the right side of the operator is numerically greater than the left side.
= returns true if the two sides of the operator are equal.
>= returns true if the left side of the operator is greater than or equal to the right side.
<= returns true if the left side of the operator is less than or equal to the right side.
!= returns true if the two sides or the operator are not equal.
