Re: [MBS] FileMapping : Detach memoryblock?
Thanks - I think I'm confused about how the constructor that lets you pass in a memoryBlock is supposed to work. If I do this, it works fine: the data is transferred. dim m as memoryblock (...) fm.CreateMemoryblock(id, m.size) fm.deleteSharedMemory=false // the receiver will handle deleting it (...) fmv = fm.MapView(0,m.size) dim buffer as MemoryBlock = fmv.Memory if buffer <> nil then m.CopyBytesMBS(0,m.size,buffer,0) fmv.FlushView fmv=nil If I do this, the data ends up blank on the receiving end: dim m as memoryblock (...) fm.CreateMemoryblock(id, m.size) fm.deleteSharedMemory=false // the receiver will handle deleting it (...) fmv = fm.MapView(m,0,m.size) // pass in our memoryblock fmv.FlushView fmv=nil m= nil In the second example, is the problem that I'm setting FMV to nil? Or that I'm setting my MemoryBlock to nil? On Jun 20, 2014, at 11:56 AM, Christian Schmitz wrote: > > Am 20.06.2014 um 17:46 schrieb Michael Diehr : > >> I'm experimenting with FileMappingMBS.

[MBS] [ANN] 14.2pr12
Hi, * Fixed a bug on Windows IconMBS function where icon would just be in top left area of image. * Changed folderitem.IconMBS, IconMaskMBS and IconImageMBS to user newer Cocoa based APIs if possible. * Added HasAlphaChannel property for PictureEditorMBS, PictureReaderMBS and PictureWriterMBS class. * Added NewPictureWriterMBS support for alpha images and for reusing images. * Added ContainerControl.NSViewMBS, useful to animate containers. * Updated Chromium plugin classes for the future. * Fixed bug in LinuxHIDInterfaceMBS.MatchDevice event. * Fixed problem with GDI Plus bitmap in PictureMBS and other picture functions. * Fixed NSGraphicsMBS.graphicsContextWithNSView to raise NSExceptionMBS objects if they happen.

[MBS] How capture mousedown or gotFocus for cocoaControlMBS
Christian > Maybe better use NSTextViewControlMBS directly? > It forwards events so you get the normal Xojo events there. nsTextViewControlMBS seems to fix the problem of text spilling into other containers, but nsTextViewControlMBS doesn’t have mouseDown, mouseUp, gotFocus, lostFocus events either - how can I get these events? Further, I have a canvas covering this control in a parent containerCOntrol (it is used for dragNdrop and other stuff). With other controls (e.g. textArea) the mouse and keyboard events drop right through the canvas to the textArea or cocoaControlMBS, but with NSTextViewControlMBS they don’t. How can I fix this?

Trying to optimize my PDF reader. When resizing a page, I have to render it (of course).

[MBS] FileMapping : Detach memoryblock?
I'm experimenting with FileMappingMBS. Is there a way to detach the memory
block received and then destroy the FileMappingView, without losing the memory
block? I'm trying to avoid an extra MemoryBlock copy if possible.
Server:
dim fm as new FileMappingMBS
fm.CreateSharedMemory("idxxx",size)
dim fmv as FileMappingViewMBS = fm.MapView(0,size)
fmv.memory.stringValue = "..."
Client
dim fm as new FileMappingMBS
fm.OpenSharedMemory("idxxx")
dim fmv as FileMappingViewMBS = fm.MapView(0,size)
dim data as memoryblock = fm.memory // keep the memory block
fm.DeleteSharedMemory("idxxx") // destroy the FileMapping object
// is our data memory block still valid?

On a side note, has anyone noticed that in the new Mac OS 10.10 beta, Xojo has lost the ability to traverse *aliases* to directories containing external plugins.

Thanks - this works fine (even in Carbon builds), although I still have to have
the client test it for speed.
