Enhanced Session Storage Access
You can store information in the storage of various session types, such as Client/Server, Web, or Mobile, allowing for easy reuse across different processes.
Now, in 4D 20 R6, you can access the storage of a specific session. This enhancement enables users to easily maintain the continuity and consistency of information across multiple sessions of the same user. Imagine being able to pull up the same customer record across different applications such as Client/Server or Web.
ORDA – Share an entity selection between processes
4D v16 R6 introduced a new concept of communication between processes: shared object and shared collection variables! Thanks to this, you’re able to easily share information between processes.
Until now, entity selections weren’t shareable between processes. However, that has changed … we’re pleased to announce that in 4D v18 R5 entity selections are shareable!
Gone are the days of building a list of primary keys to move a selection of entities to another process. Enhance your multi-processes code by including ORDA entity selections as shared objects.

Sharing information in multi-threading environment
4D v16 R6 introduces a new concept of communication between processes: shared object and shared collection variables! They are a solution so you can avoid using interprocess variables (which can’t be used in multi-thread mode). Thanks to this, you will be able to easily share information between preemptive processes.
