Inspired by a capsuleer's question over in the Tech Lab forum, I've thrown together a little companion tool for EWA, called EWAViewer.

As you EWA users might or might not be aware, EWA let's you export the data you currently looking at to its own file format by right-clicking on the grid and select "Save as ...". (Well, most grids ... I'm sure I've left out a few ...) You could hand the resulting file to another EWA user and he could open it in his EWA (menu File -> Open grid) and view the data you sent him. BTW, the exported data includes what you currently see in the grid and only that, honoring all filters currently in place. So the recipient got to see only what you want him to see.

The above has long been a feature of EWA.

EWAViewer is just that: a viewing tool for the data file you exported. It's self-contained It doesn't require an installation of EWA itself nor any API keys or other (EVE) data from the user.

It didn't took long to separate out that part of EWA into this 'lil tool. If at least one of you guys finds it a useful addition, it's well worth the time it took me.

You'll find the EWAViewer at EWA's download page.

Enjoy! (and bug-report ofc, in case it doesn't work ...)

Thanks for the kind words. Smile

If I'm not terribly mistaken, EWA is meanwhile the oldest still supported trading app around.

The two older ones I remember, EMMA and EVE Income Analyzer, seem to have gome out of business, though I'm not exactly sure about the later. It was picked up by VV after having been discontinued by its original author. But I haven't seen VV for a long time.

I've released a new EWA version (2.1.24).

- Upon the request of an EWA user, I've added a new filter option "Vendor" to the wallet transactions. This filter doesn't make much sense for a single trader, though. But for corporate transactions, this lets you filter on the corp member who did the actual transaction(s).

- The charts window now also respects the setting for enabling/disabling the "Client" filter, resulting in a minor loading speed gain when the client filter is disabled.

I've also updated the setup to include the latest release and database (Galatea).

BTW, ever since CCP decided to tear apart the Static Data Export into now three different sources/formats (MS SQL database dump, a bunch of YAML files + a SQLite database), Desmont McCallock (of EVEMon fame) enabled me to publish my database updates in a timely manner by making his tool SDEExternalsToSql public. Big smile

This tool gathers all the scattered data from the YAML files and SQLite database and imports them back into the SQL database. So hop over to the above linked forum post and give Mr. McCallock a big hand.

I've pushed out a small update to both EWA and EWAAutoData which removes the calls to (what now seems to be defunct) eve-marketdata.com. Although both apps could well cope with calls to the non-existent service, this should slightly increase the speed of certain actions involving market data retrieval.

Done.

Although both are easily reachable from EWA's site. Blink

To Dan, who sent me an email on December 25th: I've tried to answer, but your email provider keeps bouncing my answer. If you've still got that problem and haven't figured out the solutio yourself meanwhile, send me an EVE mail instead.

I've published a bug fix for both EWA (v2.1.28) and EWAAutoData (v1.0.32).

This fixes an issue when fetching item prices from EVE Central and you're possessing items that EC for whatever reason doesn't support and therefore won't answer a request with price data. In that case, EWA ignored any price retrieved so far and "dropped" out of the processing method.

tl;dr
EWA wasn't retrieveing prices from EVE Central anymore. This has been fixed.

Holy Hell dude. I just resubed after a few years gone. One of the things that happened near the end of my last tenure was the API changes and you heading out. That was a huge blow to me because I had built a lot of personal tools in a MS Access which could easily piggyback on your backend. I spent a LONG time trying to figure out how to import attribute centric xml into access and never could figure it out so I had to rely on other tools (which while good never could really operate the same as my personal stuff designed for my needs and I could never piggyback on them). I really hope your backend is still MS access compatible. Being able to do customizable queries in my own environment is going to be fairly critical for some of the work I want to do now (trying to build some linear optimization models and MRP systems for industrial/market optimization).

Even if not it's really great to see you back, your tool, even as a standalone, was excellent for analytical work. Never really found anything else that worked as well.

Most fortuitous.

Whelp, what would a good tool be without some good problems.

So I downloaded it and tried to give it a run on an install. Strangely the installer hangs immediately. Shows up in my task manager (2 times, like 116k each) and can't be killed with an "end process" command, so it's hung pretty seriously. I dug through Event Viewer as well as I could and couldn't find anything particularly obvious with it. Restarted and tried running the install a handful of times and didn't see any errors pop up, but the same issues persists.

Running on Win7 64. Any ideas what might be causing this?

Hmm, I'm using Win 7 64 bit, too. Other than the typical suggestions like a) must be run "As Administrator" and b) make sure your virus scanner doesn't interfer with the installation process, I don't know what may be the cause.

Can you check how far the installation process proceeded? I.e. is there a folder BasicAware\EVEWalletAware in your Program Files (x86) folder? Is there something in it?

If you can't get it to install, send me an EVEMail. We'll figure out a way to do a manual install.

And yes, it's still MS Access based.

[Added]
As for working with XML in MS Office (Excel or Access): if it gets a bit more complicated, VBA is the way to go, osing the MS XML object. Have a look at https://github.com/HelOWeen/eveExcel. Switch to the VBA Editor and have a look at the functions in there to get an idea of how to do it.
