Method: QuickBase::Client#initialize

Defined in:
lib/QuickBaseClient.rb

#initialize(username = nil, password = nil, appname = nil, useSSL = true, printRequestsAndResponses = false, stopOnError = false, showTrace = false, org = "www", apptoken = nil, debugHTTPConnection = false, domain = "quickbase", proxy_options = nil) ⇒ Client

Set printRequestsAndResponses to true to view the XML sent to QuickBase and return from QuickBase. This can be very useful during debugging.

Set stopOnError to true to discontinue sending requests to QuickBase after an error has occured with a request. Set showTrace to true to view the complete stack trace of your running program. This should only be necessary as a last resort when a low-level exception has occurred.

To create an instance of QuickBase::Client using a Hash of options, use QuickBase::Client.init(options) instead of QuickBase::Client.new()
