SambaPOS 3 Development Entity Screen Issue

Hi,

I am not sure if this is right place for asking SambaPOS 3 development Question. Please let me know if there is some other active form for SambaPOS 3.

I have started looking into SambaPOS 3 and i liked it so much, so i need to modify some screen so i have modified some code in Pos,Account,Ticket module . But after code modification i cant see login screen. As soon as application start it shows EntitySwitcherView. I am not sure how its doing this thing. If some one can quick guide me in right direction will be helpful for me.

Thanks

sambapos.org is the remnants of the v3 project.
I dont think its very active though and probably not going to get much for a question like that as altering the source was not a ‘supported’ aspect only using the available customization side.
Have you looked at v4/v5? each update gives us more control and abilities without editing source code and new API will allow a web powered interface with obviously huge control over interface as can use html/java etc. - PMPOS is the ‘codename’ and sure there are some mentions on the open side of the forum.

V4/V5 are not open source so i cant use them, because of this i started putting customization on V3. I have spend 3 day to solve this problem but i am not getting any idea.

You might be out of luck as v3 has long passed with no updates etc.
The issue has been caused by your alterations and since majority of users are not customizing code on v3 just using with built in options.
This forum will certainly not be much help as only a very few have ever touched v3 yet alone looked at source.

out of curiosity, why can’t you use them because they are not open source? V4 is free, V5 is a low $99 license cost (and you can try it for free). Both give a huge amount of customisation capability far superior to V3. I am pretty sure anything you would want to customise in the source code of V3 you will be able to accomplish in V5 or possibly even V4.

i need to use MySQL database and there is some existing POS system changes are there for those i have created number of table. there is already some other application are working on top of MySQL database.

While v5 doesn’t run on MySQL using scripts it can interact with MySQL.
I have done this for a call logging system and intent to use with a mix of the new API to creat a customer/loyalty and user sync system using our website.

Do you actually know how to code?

yes i am a C# developer.
