Re: Launcher stacks on iOS etc.

2011-12-28 Thread Gerry Orkin
I do, because my apps have to to go to different stacks depending on the 
running environment. My launcher handles that and also initialises SQLite 
databases. Using a launcher also lets me store files that need to be copied to 
the device in one place, rather than in multiple places, given that the app can 
run in multiple environments.

Hi Todd,

Sure, you can do that, but there is a small syntax problem. I think that go 
stack works, but go stack in window doesn't. This won't keep you from making a 
launcher, but it is useful to know ;)

Hi Mark,

I wasn't thinking of using a launcher to load additional code from the
internet on iOS.  that would be cool, but I would guess you are right, that
it wouldn't be allowed.  But I was thinking more along the lines of having
a place to load stuff and setup the environment before launching the main
stack. Are there reasons why this can't or shouldn't be done on iOS or
android, etc.

Hi Todd,

For testing, it is a good idea. You could save your work in your personal web 
folder (on mac) and run your stack on an iOS device right-away. 

For the iTunes store, I wouldn't recommend it because apple may not allow you 
to for load additional code.

Launcher stacks on iOS etc.

2011-12-27 Thread Todd Geist
Hello,

Clearly on the desktop, using a launcher file to start up the solution
makes a lot of sense. It seems very helpful in terms of managing updates,
setting up the environmment etc.  But I am curious is it still a good idea
for things like iOS etc?  I am curious to hear from folks who have stuff in
the app stores.  Do you still use a launcher file?

Thanks

Todd
