Well, That´s (Shutdown the PC) what I did a few minutes ago. The message is
still the same. Anybody with another idea?

Thank you and best regards

Re: Setting the system date to Option fields

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Charles,

Not sure I understand well what you want:
If you want to select by script the three right items in your option  
menus, it's quite easy :-)


local tDate
-
put the short date into tDate
convert tDate from short date to dateItems
select line lineOffset(item 1 of tDate, btn "Year" ) of btn "Year"
set the menuHistory of btn "Month" to item 2 of tDate
set the menuHistory of btn "Day" to item 3 of tDate

Le 16 déc. 06 à 04:10, Charles Szasz a écrit :

I have three option menus: year, month (expressed in numerical  
form) and day expressed in numerical form). How can I set the date  
for the year, month and day to the system date?

Protecting key data

[Richard Miller]

I'm wondering what folks are doing to protect certain key pieces of  
data in a stack from unauthorized use. More specifically:


We're doing a lot of file transferring from our applications (which  
could be on any customer's computer) to and from our server. Hence,  
the IP address (and password) of our server needs to be in those  
applications. We need to protect that information.


We're already setting the password of the main stack, so its script  
data is encrypted. But this main stack has more than 50 sub-stacks,  
and unless a password is set for every one of those stacks (which may  
be necessary), anyone can see the scripts of those stacks. So it  
would appear necessary to set a password for every substack that  
contains important data.


A bigger problem is that we're putting the IP info into a global  
variable so it can be accessed throughout the application. That IP  
address is currently contained in a custom property in the main  
stack, which even though it is password protected... can be  
easily accessed through the message box, even before the password is  
entered. No security there.


Seems one route is to put the IP address into the script of some  
object in the main stack. This way, there's no way to get at it  
without the password. But it becomes a bit of a pain to reference  
that IP throughout the application, other than the long way (put the  
script of object x of cd x of stack x.).


Is there a better approach?

Thanks.

Using the built-in script encryption isn't bad, but if you need 
something especially strong why not use Rev's encryption library?  With 
Blowfish and other industrial-strength algos available, it should more 
than cover what you need.


If lightweight encryption is sufficient, the fwPack and fwUnpack 
handlers here are very easy to use, if not particularly strong:

I have never dealt with this myself, but one approach that occurred  
to me is to store the data in a passworded script like so:


constant kPassWord="MyPassWord", kIP="192.168.0.100"


Access it in your application by providing, in the same script, a  
getprop handlers like so:



 getprop uPassWord
return kPassWord
 end uPassWord

 getprop uIP
return kIP
 end uIP

... which you invoke with statements like:

 put the uIP of stack  "MyMainStack" into tIP
 put the uPassWord of stack  "MyMainStack" into tPassWord
 -- do something with tIP and tPassWord

If tIP and tPassWord are local to the handler in which they are used,  
they'll not be floating around in globals.



You can exclude message box access by including, in the getprop  
handlers:


 if  not( the target contains "message field" ) then ...


I'm sure the security gurus have better answers, but I couln't hold  
myself back!

Problem with BinaryEncode and variable params

[Bryan McCormick]

Folks,

I am a bit baffled here. I have seen many sample scripts where variables 
are passed as parameter to binaryEncode (in my case, for imageData) but 
no matter how I try to pass the known numeric values, the compiler 
throws an error.


For example:

take a string of the form 0,206,0 as returned from the color picker, 
let's call this tColors


Then I put each value into a separate param

put item 1 of tColors+0 into c1

put item 2 of tColors+0 into c2

put item 3 of tColors+0 into c3

(I added the +0 to make sure the var was seen as a number, I tried it 
without as well with the same error)



Then I call:

put binaryEncode("",0,c1,c2,c3) into varNewImageData


and it fails.

I tried to pass all the params as a quoted string, concatenated, you 
name it I have tried it.


It's likely dead simple. But for the life of me I cannot get it.

This is in 2.7.4

Midi and Revolution

[Fred Moyer]

This is for anyone who knows about midi:

1) I need a midi file to trigger events in Revolution. Is putting the  
midi file into a player and then using callbacks the only way? If so,  
is there some formula where I can tell exactly what callback number  
is associated with what note? I am trying to figure it out using  
tempo in the midi file and timescale in the player. So if tempo is 60  
beats per minute and the timescale of the player is 600, then at the  
end of the 60th beat, a minute should have passed and therefore the  
callback number would be 600 * 60 or 36000, but it isn't working out  
that perfectly. Maybe tempo in midi or callbacks in Revolution are  
not entirely exact?


2) Running midi in a player burns up the cpu. Just having a tiny 20K  
midi file in the player and not even playing spikes up Revolution's  
use of the cpu to 35% in Activity Monitor, the Apple applications in  
the Utilities folder. Then playing the midi file is also more  
intensive on the cpu than playing a sound file. The app that I am  
writing will be used with a laptop, often on battery power, so this  
is a crucial issue. What is the cpu doing with a dormant midi file  
that is so difficult and crucial so as to use 35% of the cpu? Is this  
a Quicktime bug, Revolution bug?


3) Is it always a midi FILE that has to play? One thing I need is a  
click that plays endlessly at a specific tempo. I am creating the  
click by making a midi file that uses one of the Drum instruments.  
But of course the file runs out eventually and I have to loop it and  
there is inevitably a jerk. Is there any way to not use a file at all  
and just play a note over and over at a certain tempo? (I know I  
could just skip midi altogether and play a tiny sound file over and  
over, but I'd like to stick to midi for some other reasons.)


4) I know very little about midi. Is there anyone out there who could  
help me with my project?


Thanks

Variables in DB Query Builder

[Horst]

Holá SQL-Professionals,

I´m thinking, how to put a variable Part in the SQL-Message of the DB Query
builder

f.e.
Select Landname, Landvorwahl from land_kz where Landname BETWEEN "A%" AND
"¦"  ORDER BY Landname ASC;
How to put the variable instead of "A%" witch makes by the way, no sense.

Thanks for many good ideas and don´t let me alone :-)

Very impressive. This reminds me ... back in October when I was complaining

Re: Importing data into standalones (and saving it)

[Bill Marriott]

The standalone file itself cannot be modified or saved. But,

- the standalone stack can create new stacks, and those can be written to & 
saved.
- you can ship an uncompiled template stack side-by-side with your 
standalone stack
- you can save/load data to disk in the usual ways.

Re: Problem with BinaryEncode and variable params

[Bernard Devlin]

Bryan,

put "0,1,0" into tColors
put item 1 of tColors+0 into c1
put item 2 of tColors+0 into c2
put item 3 of tColors+0 into c3
put binaryEncode("",0,c1,c2,c3) into varNewImageData
put varNewImageData

works for me insofar as it will put some binary gibberish into the  
msgbox.  Are you sure that at least 1 item in tColors is non-zero?


I have never used imageData or binaryEncode, so maybe I am not

Socket timeout interval

[J. Landman Gay]

I have an app that downloads files, and it works fine for almost 
everyone except for one person who gets consistent socket timeout 
errors. What's a good setting for the socketTimeoutInterval for iffy 
connections like this one? Since there may be mulitple serial downloads, 
I'd like an interval that doesn't hang up the process too terribly long, 
but still waits long enough. Is there such a thing?

Re: Problem with BinaryEncode and variable params

Bernard's solution works. You could write C4 instead of  and if  
you want to see some result, you could convert it to hex values,  
because you can't see NULL values without converting them.


  put "0,206,0" into tColors
  put item 1 of tColors into c1
  put item 2 of tColors into c2
  put item 3 of tColors into c3
  put binaryEncode("C4",0,c1,c2,c3) into varNewImageData
  get binaryDecode("H*",varNewImageData,x)
  put x

This is actually correct behavior. What you're doing is returning a
recordset id from which you can start to extract data. All the
revQueryDatabase() function is doing is getting you that far, and you
aren't getting any errors because you're connecting properly with your
database and don't have any syntax errors in your SQL statement. The
fact that the data represented by the recordset is empty is not
relevant. You would see an error if you specified a field that didn't
exist in the database or a if dbID2 didn't specify a currently open
database or some other such error.

If you use the recordset returned to you by the revQueryDatabase()
function in a revDatabaseColumnNamed() function call you will see that
it returns empty to you, but again no error.

Re: Problem with BinaryEncode and variable params

Bryan, for the purposes of encoding image data (1-byte unsigned  
integers), the numToChar function works just as well:


repeat for each item i in tList
  put numToChar(i) after tBinaryString
end repeat

Otherwise, "C4" (rather than "") has always worked for me...

How accurate do you need this to be?
I'd imagine the quicktime midi player to be decently accurate in it's

to be with the callback mechanism.

It's fairly easy to use the 'beep' command to make a reasonably  
consistent click, using 'send in time'. Alternatively, you could make  
a looping sound file, and use the 'playRate' to adjust the tempo.


is there some formula where I can tell exactly what callback number  
is associated with what note?


I don't know if you can get at individual midi events (such as notes)  
using callbacks, though I doubt it. Again, depending on how accurate  
you need it to be, you might be able to actually parse the midi file,  
and trigger events at the right time, again, using 'send in time'.


I've not played around with midi files (though I've used midi a great  
deal), but I'd imagine something like this would be doable.
If you need millisecond accuracy, though, I doubt that this would be  
good enough.

Yes, it can be used literally. "../" means the parent of the defaultFolder, 
"../../" means the parent of that folder (the grandparent of the 
defaultFolder), and so on.

This actually is in the docs, in the article "About filename specifications and 
file paths" - but I'm not sure where what used to be the Encyclopedia has been 
placed in the current version of the docs...
