I agree with Alan about this is open source and we have the option to fix it... but said this I also disagree with him in his statementa about a network drive in producction. Why?
Because not everybody uses openbd to serve web pages, in my case run AI modules that augmentates data. Secondly is referred to openbd local users, I mean opendb for the desktop. Using mapped drives does not work since expandPath() translates the mapped drive to the (broken) real network path. A solution could be use a config file where you set the path to the app. Best On Friday, February 8, 2013 11:12:19 PM UTC+1, Al Holden wrote: > > Couldn't he just create a symbolic link - on the OS side - and map using > that? > True sym links are fairly new to the Windows OS - starting with Vista/7/R2 > I think. > Al > > On 2/8/2013 4:58 AM, Alan Williamson wrote: > > ... and as I have said before ... we won't be fixing it ... we are happy > to accept a patch if someone else wants to have a go. this is the power > of open source - you never have to wait. > > but for a production system, the last thing you want to be doing is to be > creating a mappings over a network share like this - just asking for > trouble. > > > -- -- online documentation: http://openbd.org/manual/ http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Open BlueDragon" group.
