Re: Way to read from USB port with Rev?

For instance, if I wanted to write an app that could read the barcode info from a USB-based barcode scanner, could I do that with Revolution?

It will not matter if it is USB. Standard ones using the AT connector often go on a Y type connector, so that either the keyboard or the reader can enter data. If you do this, it doesn't matter what the application is or even what the OS is. You do not need any drivers (other than OS support for USB keyboards). You just need the cursor in the correct field, and then any triggers of the reader will put the read code, followed by ENTER, into it, and you handle it as needed. I have not tried this yet in Revolution, but have verified that a Y connected reader which emulates a keyboard will supply data to a spreadsheet in both Windows or Linux, and to any of several word processors, so am sure that if the cursor is in an editable Rev field, the data will arrive. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
MySQL truncates diacritic and accented characters...
Happy new year for all and everybody! I know there are MySQL experts on this list :-). The problem I encountered recently with the MySQL 5 is that while loading table from file it truncates all strings in varchar fields that have an accented or diacritic characters (these are names of taxonomists). Thus for example (Lacépède, 1803) is truncated to (Lac. Varchar maximum length is set to 255 and the length of the most truncated strings is below 20. Is there an easy way to overcome this misbehavior of the MySQL when populating tables from a file ? Tried using CHARSET utf8 when creating table or field, but it did not help either... Maybe collation would help, but which one - the default causes the truncation ?

RE: Hairlines and Scaling
Hi Joe You might also consider the strategy of creating/maintaining the vectors in an oversized stack, say 2000 x 3000 pixels in size, then exporting cards as needed as GIF, JPG or whatever file format your program can scale, print, or otherwise consume. (See the export command in the docs). If you need a more easily viewable image in your native Rev stack, I can imagine a scheme where you create thumbnails for viewing within Rev. However, not sure how you would go about having a more easily *manipulable* (scroll-free) image in Rev. There is no zoom-in capability, ala Illustrator or Photoshop.

Sorry for a monologue, posting just in case somebody encounters similar problem with truncated charsets in MySQL. The other solution is describe field with: myfieldname VARCHAR(45) CHARACTER SET binary and an alternative from: myfieldname VARBINARY(45) However the following won't work - 2 byte characters will still be truncated (even if I change the session's charset to utf8): myfieldname VARCHAR(45) BINARY myfieldname VARCHAR(45) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin BR V. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

This package is a bundle of a web server, libraries and demos, everyting in 100% transcript. The objective is to help the aspiring web developer (and the seasoned one) to create their web applications, the RevHTTP server runs inside the Revolution IDE and is able to run text file based cgis as well as serve files, this alone enables everyone to develop for the web from inside rev, using the debugger!!! Develop and Test your CGIs from inside revolution! This is of course freeware with source. All code is commented, specially the webserver code. I give this to this wonderful community as a token of gratitude for all the years that everyone and his dog helped me! What is included: * RevHTTP - 100% transcript web server with new features and cleaner code. * EasyCGI Core library - a simple library for building text file cgis. * EasySessions - a simple library for session management. * EasyDebug - a error report tool for CGIs. * libCGI compatibilty functions - RevHTTP has a compatible API that allows libCGI based apps to run inside it. * Demos for all libraries and even AJAX demos!!! More documentation is expected as time goes. The demos and the libraries will also have updates. Right now they are very bare but I do like them and use them everyday. Have I mentioned that I commented my code yet?

Re: Hairlines and Scaling
Mark, thanks for your thoughts. I'm already working with a 2592x1728 pixel (36x24 @ 72 pixel per inch) sized stack as a drawing pad, and am trying to figure out a method of moving around either with scroll bars or a hand, and probably some zooming in and out capability. Even drawing with Rev appears to be a little strange; doing it with objects rather than painted lines. Not so obviously, once getting accustomed to this approach, it really makes for a far better documented drawing, with quantities and sizes available for material take-offs; just a slightly different mind-set. If anyone on the list has explored programs that do these sorts of things, I'm all ears!

Printing Help in Rev and Standalone
Hello, I'd like to have my application built with rev to prompt the user with the standard Mac OS X printer prompt so that they can select the printer they want to use and how many copies they want to make. I've used a couple of of commands but without success after converting it to a standalone application. The commands I have used are: open printing with dialog When I use this command in the standalone (Mac OSX), the prompt will show up once, fail to print and never show up again on future requests to print. I have also used: show RevShowPrintDialog I made sure when selecting the Standalone Settings that I included the the rev print library for this command by selecting it from the select inclusions for standalone application button under the standalone settings. When requesting to print a card under this format, I get no prompt at all once the standalone is created. Under both commands, I do get the prompt while in Rev, but not as a standalone. Is there a piece of magic code I am missing? Have I selected the wrong rev library? Is the force not with me?

Re: Altbrowser html page communication with application?
Jerry, better than that, with altBrowser2 (Thanks Chipp and Chris for this amazing product), there's a property htmlText of the altBrowser, you can generate a text string and set altBrowser2 to it without ever touching the disk. I use this for previewing HTML changes on a software of mine.

How to test Rev in other platforms?
I just made a standalone of a project I've been working on. It runs fine in OS X (and OS 9). So I borrowed a friend's laptop and ran the Windows exe (I don't have a Windows machine or Windows rev license for Windows). There's a problem, but I can't figure out what's causing it. Is there a way within Rev for a person figure out what's wrong on the Windows side of things without buying a WIndows machine and development environment?

Re: How to test Rev in other platforms?
Mark, as a simple way to debug try going to your standalone settings and to the bug tab, include in your standalone the error report tool and allow it to send an email to you. In this email, you'll see the handler/function where the error happened and maybe a line number or some meaningful data.

Re: How to test Rev in other platforms?
Thanks, Andre. I'll do that. In this case, however, nothing is broken, it just doesn't work properly, as it does in development and in the Mac standalones. No error messages would be generated (I don't think.)

Re: How to test Rev in other platforms?
Mark, then it is more difficult... Enterprise licensees (I can't spell in english, you know) will be able to install development environment in all OS... if you're a studio owner and just want to get that standalone working, then, the quickest shot is since you have your friends laptop with you, you can download a studio trial for Win32 and debug it with the trial... don't know I am usually doing network stuff where I don't generate standalones. :-) Cheers andre On Jan 3, 2007, at 12:49 AM, Mark Swindell wrote: Thanks, Andre.

Determining SSL Authenticity
Does anyone know how to determine SSL authenticity. For example, if I'm connected to https://www.somedomain.com/securepage.php;, other than the s after http, how can I find out the certificate information? Or do I just trust the fact that since the s is after http that it's secure?

Re: Determining SSL Authenticity
Derek, if the certificate is not valid, the SSL library will return you an error. Actually, in some cases, it returns an error even for valid certificates... I don't know if you can find the certificate information from inside Rev, if you are using MacOS X then you can use cURL or some other unixland tool to query the certificate data but I never tried that.

Re: Determining SSL Authenticity
Andre, Thank you so much for your response. I'm afraid I was a little unclear as to my intentions. I am implementing altBrowser into one of my projects, and unfortunately, altBrowser does not return whether IE knows if the server is secure. I'm looking for a way of determining this within Revolution so I can display that on the screen. I just looked over the built-in documentation for SSL and couldn't find much other than the encrypt and decrypt functions. I need a way to determine if the url that altBrowser is looking at is actually secure. Any ideas? :) Derek Bump Dreamscape Software www.dreamscapesoftware.com Andre Garzia wrote: Derek, if the certificate is not valid, the SSL library will return you an error.

Re: OT: 2D to 3D Tools -- What Happened to Canoma?
You might take a look here: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dhoiem/projects/popup/index.html It's software by a research team that automatically generates a 3D image from a 2D source. As far as I know, it only works with outside scenes. It works by deciding where the horizon is, and figuring out what should be vertical. There are some amazing images on their web site of a train and a cathedral, both of which went from flat to 3D. regards, Geoff On Dec 31, 2006, at 6:05 PM, Sivakatirswami wrote: I was naive enough to think that some 3D programs would just import jpegs and voila! your giant image library become content resource for games But, not so...
