I've been looking into this, and I haven't seen anyone mention base 64
encoding.
I made a test project that seems to be working fine. This was created from
bits and pieces of info found on the internet.
PushButton1 creates a text file, writes a path to it.
PushButton2 opens the text file, reads the line and converts it to a
FolderItem. Then it launches the FolderItem.
Any suggestions on how to improve this--such as avoiding encoding issues?
Thanks!
PushButton1 Action Event:
dim f as folderItem
dim data as string
dim tout as textOutputStream
f = desktopFolder
data = f.getSaveInfo(NIL)
f = NIL
f = getFolderItem(data)
f = desktopFolder.child("TESTFile.txt")
tout = f.createTextFile()
tout.writeLine data
PushButton2 Action Event:
Dim f, f2 As FolderItem
Dim textInput As TextInputStream
Dim rowFromFile As String
f=DesktopFolder.Child("TESTFile.txt")
If f <> Nil Then
textInput = f.OpenAsTextFile
rowFromFile=textInput.ReadLine
textInput.Close
End If
f2 = GetFolderItem(rowFromFile)
f2.Launch
