my line of code is:

do ("send" && QUOTE & tTransactionDataA["transaction"] && 
tTransactionData & QUOTE && "to stack" && QUOTE & 
sRegisteredTransactionsA[tTransactionDataA["transaction"]] & QUOTE 
&& "in 0 milliseconds")

tTransactionDataA[] is an array containing all of the data
tTransactionData is the same array, but as a flat string

sRegsiteredTransactionsA[] is an array that maps "transaction"s to the 
stack that has registered to receive them.. (currently a one-to-one 
mapping, but in the future it will be one-to-many)..

Eric,

if the mouse is down then exit "name of your script"

Forgetting my original typo, your solution is better if you have to do any
housekeeping before quitting the script.

So far, I can confirm the above behavior on Mac OSX.

I don't know if this is an acceptable workaround but have you tried setting
the palette's loc offscreen?


local origBR

on suspendStack
  put bottomRight of stack pal into origBR
  set bottomRight of stack pal to 0,0
end suspendStack

on resumeStack
  set bottomRight of stack pal to origBR
end resumeStack


I used this and it seems to work, but I don't know if this is the behavior
you want (you can't click on the palette or it disappears).

Palette redraw problem

2004-05-19 Thread J. Landman Gay
Before I bugzilla this, I wanted to check to see if anyone else has hit 
this snag and whether there is a work-around for it.

I have stack that opens a tool palete. I want the palette to disappear 
when the stack is not frontmost, and reappear when it is. I scripted a 
suspendStack handler and a resumeStack handler to manage this:

on suspendStack
 hide palette "myPalette"
end suspendStack
on resumeStack
 show palette "myPalette"
end resumeStack
This works exactly every other time the stack is suspended; that is, the 
first time it hides, the second time it doesn't. In addition, the times 
when the palette is reshown, it is not redrawn and appears on screen as 
a plain white rectangle with no contents. "Go this card of stack 
myPalette" from the message box will force a redraw and the contents appear.

Sometimes the engine seems to forget what the stack status is. When the 
palette appears to be empty and all white, the message box says it is 
hidden. However, "show palette mypalette" in this case does not work and 
there is no change to the stack's appearance. Neither does "hide palette 
mypalette". The engine seems to completely forget the palette stack 
exists. There are no reported errors.

I have tried closing the palette rather than hiding it; no difference. I 
have put blocking scripts for all system messages in the palette stack; 
no difference. I have locked messages before hiding or showing the 
stack; no difference. I have added a check in each handler to make sure 
the target of the suspend and resume messages is the primary stack; no 
difference.

Ideas? Workarounds till this gets fixed? Has anyone seen this before?

Intermittent Performance

I have a field "theWord", into which letters are added. If a mistake is made
 upon entry, the user is able to delete the last character of the field by
clicking on a button that contains the script found below... or by employing
the option key at the same time the user can clear the whole field.
 
The problem I have is that the first time I click on the button, a
character is deleted, but the second time I click on the button then there
is no response, until I click for a third time.

I must point out that the cursor does not leave the rect of the button
during these clicks.

 if the optionKey is "down" then
   put empty into fld "theWord"

While I'm not happy that I've paid $97 for an additional two volumes that

it's $97 for THREE books/volumes, which gets us back close to that $25

Hi John,
Sounds like you are clicking too fast.  If you would like the user to 
be able to click faster then now, you should look up 
"doubleclickinterval" in the TS dictionary.  When I tested your script, 
if I clicked the button slowly (every few seconds) it worked just fine.

You may also simplify your script by exchanging the last two put lines 
with:
delete the last char of field "theWord"

Paul,

In the place in the repeat loop in your script you might think about
inserting an if statement such as:

If the mouse is down
exit "your script name"
end if

That is if you don't absolutely have to exit a script by key-control.

I think you're looking for the 'iconic' stack property:

  set the iconic of this stack to [true|false]

The setting of this stack property fires the 'iconifyStack' or
'unIconifyStack' message, so you can do stuff at those times.

Hi Derek,
According to Rev Dictionary, "maximize" is a keyword relating to a 
window's decorations property.

So if you don't want to
  set the rect of this stack to the screenRect
or
  set the rect of this stack to the windowBoundingRect,
you might try
  lock screen
  revChangeWindowSize  [the screen width,the screen height]
  set the loc of this stack to the screenLoc
  unlock screen;
but Rev Dictionary uses "set the rect of this stack to the 
screenRect" as an example.

You are not correct but it is not necessarily surprising that you 
aren't! We offer so many options.

Here's the real scoop.
The *printed* books used to be $47 but Kevin and I recently announced a 
price reduction to $37.

The *eBooks* are only available in a bundle that includes all three of 
the eBooks and one of three levels of an annual membership in my online 
community called RevolutionPros, where there is a discussion board, 
access to me for questions and help, and other goodies. The three 
levels of membership are $97, $147 and $197. Those who pay the highest 
fee get a bunch of goodies the others don't get.

Frankly, at $47 I thought the printed book was a good value and a lot 
of folks agreed.  But when we decided mutually to slow down progress on 
the book project to allow RunRev to focus its resources on product 
development while we look for a third-party publisher to pick up the 
printing and distribution and order fulfillment stuff, we thought it 
would be a nice gesture to lower the price of Volume 1 in the process.

If so, it need not be complex.  The command parameter may be a 
variable.  The object parameter may be a variable specifying the object

The command parameter, whether a literal in the send command or the

Could you have left in some temporary script lines to do a quick 
password check?

Re: Odd Error Message

(a) Does something look extremely wrong with the offending line?
I'm not sure if I'm reading this right, but it seems to me that the 
offending line is in the script of a stack named "Mouse Messages", 
either the main stack or a substack of the the main stack in file 
"RevTour.rev".

I don't think a stack has the property "the selectedText".
Perhaps you mean "the target" instead of "me".
(b) Why is this coming up on a completely different card in which this
script does not reside?  (it comes up on various cards at various 
times).
If this script is indeed that of a stack, then there are several ways.  
This can happen if the stack was set up as a front script, back script, 
or library using 'insert' or 'start using'.  This normally happens if 
the card is part of the stack with the script.  The mainstack of the 
stack (if it is a substack) is also in the message path.

Am I losing my mind?
I cannot judge.  Perhaps, you have put the script with indicated line 
in stack scripts and in card scripts.

On the Cost of "Revolution: Software at the Speed of Thought"

2004-05-19 Thread Gregory Lypny
Hello everyone,
Just wanted to confirm that the cost of Mr. Shafer's book, "Revolution: 
Software at the Speed of Thought", offered through Runtime's web site, 
is in fact US $97.  If this is correct, it seems exorbitant considering 
that most computer self-help books in hard copy typically sell for not 
more than $25 here in the land of maple syrup, hockey and Blue Rodeo.  
Not to denigrate Mr. Shafer's good work, as I owned his older books on 
HyperCard and AppleScript, but it seems that a six-fold increase in 
price for something that is available only in an electronic version is 
pushing it.

And for those looking for an SQL tutorial in general,
I've pulled a file from my archives (that Geoff Canyon
used to host at his wiki) and put it up on our company
website :


Hope this helped,

Hi Rand,

If it looks like the tabs you see in the System
Preferences, then it's the new 'Panther' look for tabs
; if it doesn't look like that, could you post a
screenshot somewhere on the web ?

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.

Re: problems with "send" and macosx .3.3

2004-05-19 Thread Pierre Sahores
Hello Shao,
I'm not sure to understand the way you are using to send the 
login/password messages from each client-side app to the server-side 
app... POST, GET, under HTTP ?
Could you, please, explain a little more how this process is handled ?

I use POST/HTTP to manage such kind of stuffs under MC 2.5/Linux and 
Rev 2.1.2/OSX 3.3 and all works as expected.

Best Regards, Pierre

i'm developing a program in runrev 2.1 on macosx .3.3 (aka panther) and
have noticed something weird when using the send command..
i have a multi-user network-enabled intranet program, and during the
testing of the login/password everything went smoothly until i decided
to use someone else's login/password combo..
all the information is being sent from the client to the server and is
completely intact before the "send" command (the actually send command
is being sent with the "do" command do to the complexity of it).. if i
change "do" to "answer" the proper information is there, but in the
receiving handler the "answer" states "false"..
the receiving handler correctly "answer"s my login/password info, and 
it
works fine when everyone else's password is the same as mine.. if the
passwords are changed, it stops working..

now the really weird part to all of this is the fact that my password 
in
the runrev app is base64 encoded and is the same as my macosx login
password.. and!! if i include my password anywhere in the data being
sent for the login/password (ie.. as a dummy parameter) all the other
accounts work..

anyone else see this on macosx?   i'll need to burn a copy and try it 
on
my windows machines at home..

Welcome to Panther :-)
This is the new look for tabbed buttons in Panther, you haven't done
anything and there is no fix.
You always can turn your own and in whatever direction you want.
That's the nice part of rev/mc

Cheers,
Sarah
