Use cache for connection metadata

Seeks better performance without having to read the database dictionary every time applications are created. This information is added in files, so that there is a more agile creation in the recovery of existing metadata in the databases.

Save metadata cache on disk

Allows files to be created in a directory, from the project name, containing a lifetime to be recreated.

Cache lifetime in days

Sets the cache lifetime for files to be recreated. In addition to this option, files will also be created in the following situations:

• When editing connections, if there is any change in the database, the cache is recreated.
• The “reload” icon next to the tables.
• The SQL Builder “reload” button.

It allows passing the PHP Session ID in the URL.

Foreign key improvement

When it comes to the form, this enables an improvement in the definition of lookups in a field that is a foreign key.

Example of a lookup created when the flag is enabled:

SELECT orderid, customerid FROM orders ORDER BY customerid

Example of a lookup created when the flag is disabled:

SELECT orderid, orderid FROM orders ORDER BY customerid

When it comes to grid applications, this enabled flag creates automatic lookups for fields. Regarding the data dictionary, with this option enabled, the data dictionary will now allow the foreign key to be defined when editing fields, more precisely in the additional properties of the fields.

Timezone

It sets the PHP Timezone used in ScriptCase.
