Re: Getting datagrid content from other stack in Standalone

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

The last one is possible. As far as substacks getting moved and breaking 
references, the Standalone Builder takes that into account I believe. Also, if 
the stack files are contained in the folder the SB creates for them, I 
*believe* that the engine will upon failing to find a stack reference, check 
that folder, otherwise the SB would have to change the references in the code 
wherever it found them, and that wouldn't account for stack paths stored as 
properties. I'm pretty sure the engine resolves those things on the fly.

If the script of an object is running, the stack it belongs to is open. If you 
reference an object in a closed stack (correct me if I am wrong) LC will load 
the stack the object belongs to into memory.

Would this work with a stack on disk that hasn't been opened yet?

Definitely stealing your functions thx. :)

Oh, as to the OP, my first thought on why it wasn't working, is that the
stack wasn't open (hence the need to address it's on disk location), but
another thought occurred to me.  I'm wondering if the standalone auto
inclusions can be affected by moving substacks into separate stackfiles
 Perhaps the datagrid support libraries aren't being included?

Re: Getting datagrid content from other stack in Standalone

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

Don't you mean:

put the dgdata of grp 1 of CARD 1 OF stack "path/to/dgstack.livecode" into 
tDataA

If you are going to be using full paths for this, I recommend using my fine 
functions getParentCard() and getParentStack(). 

function getParentCard pObjectID
   put offset("card id", pObjectID) into tStartChar
   put char tStartChar to -1 of pObjectID into tCardID
   return tCardID
end getParentCard

function getParentStack pObjectID
put offset("stack ", pObjectID) into tStartChar
put char tStartChar to -1 of pObjectID into tParentStack
return tParentStack
end getParentStack

As you can see they are very basic. Pass a long id of the calling object and it 
returns the long card ID or the long name of the parent stack. Now you can do 
this:

put getParentCard(the long id of me) into tThisCard
put the dgData of grp 1 of tThisCard into tDataA

Have you tried something like this?  It works for me.  (though I just set
the folder to the stacks location and use only the filename of the stack)
put the dgdata of grp 1 of stack "path/to/dgstack.livecode" into tDataA

Getting datagrid content from other stack in Standalone

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

Hi,
i am running into the following problem.
I have a datagrid on card 1 of a substack.
I can fetch this data from the mainstack w/o problems in the LC IDE and also in 
a standalone if the substacks are included in the executable.

But as soon as i set the  option in standalonebuilder  to "move the substacks 
into individual stackfiles” ii cannot fetch the data of the datagrid anymore.

What am i missing?


Regards,
Matthias
