Thanks for checking. So it looks like auto-download isn't needed any

Right.  I gathered that from "download". :)

You don't understand. The standalone builder downloads the files 
automatically as needed. There is no public URL that I know of, it is 
all internal.

Thanks, Dar. I might play around with "process", but it sounds like  
the file route is the way to go for now.

As you can see, I'm not clear on this.  We do need a half close

If the tool reads a fixed number of lines or characters, you might  
be OK.  You don't have to do the half close.


I do have some other bugs reported on process I/O and some bugs  
that are not ready for bz on process I/O.



I'd go with the file for the input with shell() for now.  If the  
output is binary, then you should use a file for output, too, on  
Windows.  I have not had a problem with binary output on OS X.

I think in general many on this list would recommend that you never 'use'
it. In those case where Rev places data into it, like 'answer', many will
immediately 'put it into myVar' and then work with the variable. This will
save you a lot of troubleshooting similar problems where 'it' will suddenly
change on you.

Re: Bizarre? Group id = 0???

I would do a handler such as

on closecard
  set the cpDateCreated of this card to the propIwantLater
--now it is available to any stack from any card
--in your case,
--   to the long id of group "_dateCreated"

-- further, I would put the actual info I want to retrieve into the
custom properties to make things easier.
end closecard

Hopefully the bug will be fixed, but until then
What I have described is not a hack, but another way Rev would allow you to
set and access info.

Do you 'copy' the group to the next card or 'place' the group on that card?
And when is this done?  (during development, or program operation)?

Is there a group id 3712?  If so, the group id 3698 seems to be the one you
really want.

go invisible cd x

Can't you just read some properties like "the text of fld x of cd y"?

No that does not work. That is the script:

getprop date_Record
   put the long id of me into myView
   return the long id of group "_dateCreated" of myView
end date_Record

Still returns:

 group id 0 of group id 3712 of group id 1231 of group id 1275 of card id
1002 of stack 

when called from anoher card. While giving:

 group id 3706 of group id 3698 of group id 1231 of group id 1275 of card
id 1002 of stack 

when called from the current card.

Further investigation reveals that this is an issue only for controls that
have been created and not "loaded" by visiting the card they were created
on. For my application a group is copied to another card and I refer to
elements within that group with properties. This is what is not working.
Visiting the card before getting a reference solves the problem - but is not
really an option in my case as their are large videos on the card - and this
is way too slow.

There seems no way around this bug? As a hack I have moved the group to the
first group which is what an id of 0 seems to refer to!

But that is only because there didn't seem to be a way to select

I think you may be alone here.  If I read Mark's comment correctly, Rev 
hasn't used that message in a long time, and looking through the MC IDE 
it seems it's been dormant there as well in favor of checking the 
result, since at least half a decade ago.


It'll be tough to make a business case for reverting to the message 
after all this time, esp. given the convenient immediacy of just 
checking the result.


Look at it this way:  Sure, it's extra work, but you do it once, it only 
takes a few minutes, and it's done forever.

Re: How to fill out Database Query Builder fields

[Bill]

Reinhold

Don't give up. I use SQLite3 and it worked great with RunRev and the ALTSQL
plug in. Now I upgraded to 2.7.4 and after moving my datafile (has to be in
the same folder as RunRev main file) and putting the altsqlite plugins where
they go it works fine 

But, I can't help you with the query builder connection fill-out I find that
even though it works there is no pop-up for SQLite anymore and it is "MYSQL"
that is chosen and which is working even though I'm using SQLite.

In any case I highly recommend that you use Trever's library as much as
possible instead of the query builder as the query builder behaves more like
wine making than science. Trever's library also works faster and you never
get weird errors like the "too many connections open" that you get with the
query builder. The query builder is not really finished anyway as it does
not allow you to insert a new record and the edit record feature doesn't
always work (you enter data in a field and be sure to tab to the next field
and then refresh to check it).

Please try Trevor's library before you give up.

Bill

Re: How to fill out Database Query Builder fields

[chris bohnert]

Reinhold,

Between 2.7.1 and 2.7.2 Runrev changed the configuration for revdb.  As far
as I know altSqlite and QueryBuilder have always worked when configured as
necessary.

Support for altSqlite, altBrowser and altFont have officially become part of
Runrev as of Dec. 1st.  They can be reached at support(at)runrev.com.  I'd
be happy to help you work through your configuration issues if you contact
me off-list at chris(at)altuit.com

with

Thanks for the kind words about RevOnline Picker.
I think so too ;-)
And to be frank it's the reason why I wrote this tiny plugin...

Re: Uh oh, I think I Broke Something

[Mikey]

I'd go for a completely new install of Rev into a different location - I
understand you've hacked quite a bit of Rev so you can have one hacked
version and one clean version:-)

Actually, I haven't hacked Rev at all.  I have been very careful to
keep my hacking separate, going so far as to isolate everything I've
been doing from the actual IDE.  However, I will try to reinstall both
and see if that helps.

Stdout and Shell commands

[Mark Smith]

Anyone know how to pass an argument to the shell on the standard output?

There are some shell commands (openssl sha1, for example) that take  
their arguments from stdin or a file, but not the command line. While  
it's easy to write data to a file and pass the filepath to the shell,  
it's not very efficient if you want to do it many times in succession.


I've tried

open file stdout
write "mark doesn't know how to do this"
put shell("openssl sha1") into tDigest
close file stdout

but this doesn't work...

Any ideas?

best

The first one displays all stacks available from RevOnline (by  
category, by date), allows searching by keywords in descriptions,

The second one informs you discretely about new stacks uploaded at  
Rev startup then open RevOnline or RevOnline Picker if you are
