How to keep dir structure when building standalone?
Hello, I have a db, which is located in a folder one level deeper as my app (myfolder/mydb). In the standalone app settings I located and added mydb and when building the standalone it takes also mydb in the standalone package. So far so good. BUT the standalone builder doesn't keeps the directory structure, it just puts mydb in the same folder/level as my app with the consequence that my path to mydb doesn't fit any more. So when creating my CD-ROM, I have to put mydb again by hand one level deeper in myfolder/mydb. Is this the way how you should work, or am I doing something wrong with building the standalone?

AW: How to keep dir structure when building standalone?
Sorry no, I was wrong again, it doesn't work. What I have to say is, that I develop on Win XP, Rev 2.9, where I can see the path structure of my mac standalone. I try to get it to run on Mac, where I don't see the path structure within the app package. For Windows standalone I just can add the folder in the standalone and shift the db into that folder (what the standalone builder hasn't done, why?). That works. But when I create on my windows machine the dbfolder in the Mac standalone package and shift the db into this folder, my app doesn't find the db, when testing on the Mac Hmmm, still missing some basics of Mac app structure.

how to for making a commercial library for runrev (barcode analysis)
Hello colleagues, I have made a program in runrev which gets the jpg data of 5 scanservers with scanned labels and analyses the 2 to 4 barcodes 39. After a testing phase with permanent improvement it now works 8 hours a day connecting to 3-5 scanservers stable. The project was part of quality assurance in an industrial environment. In another project (an older one) a runrev prog looks permanently to a directory where scanned images are stored by a scanner, and moves and analyses and comments on these images. The barcode analysis is completely programmed in transcript (500-700 msec per scan with 4 to 30 captures of subareas of the image - black/white conversions with different filters and barcode analysis). The quality of the jpgs is 150 dpi (normally 300 dpi is the starting point of doing barcode scans ...) where one small barcode line (one modul) is about one pixel - hard task, but there are millions of those jpgs a month and storage over years should not explode ... A test for 128 barcode (possible only with higher resolution starting about 200 dpi) had been successful, but was not finally needed for this project and must be improved for final application. Now I think about making a commercial barcode analysis library for runrev. Does there exist any standards how to make commercial libraries in runrev?

For instance, the PDF library has the API help built-in as a substack, as well as a separate substack with demo scripts. When you open the library stack, it has the copyright information and buttons to take you to the demo and documentation substacks. By the way, congratulations with your project: I can't help but thinking of how one could use this with Revolution to create a cross-platform alternative to the excellent Mac-only Delicious Library.

If I'm not mistaken, you could certainly do it with a front script. Just be sure to pass it, or none of the menus in the IDE will work.

Condition 1: You never explicitly set the defaultFolder in your stack.

In the standalone environment the defaultFolder is the folder containing your application bundle--the .app file. Therefore in this case all relative paths will be relative to this folder.

Therefore all relative paths will be relative to this folder. To deal with the difference between the IDE and standalone in Mac OS X, I often include the scripting similar to this in my mainstack's stack script: on preOpenStack # set the root folder for all resources if the environment is development then set the defaultFolder to enclosingFolder(the name of me) end if ## Do this for local data and media files. set the baseDir of me to the defaultFolder / resources end preOpenStack function enclosingFolder pStName get the filename of pStName set the itemDelimiter to / return item 1 to -2 of it end enclosingFolder Hope this helps.

How is your menupick handler set up? In general, I use only a reference to a handler in the menupick, and then put the actual working handler in the message path (card or stack, depending.) So, I'd have something like this: on menupick pWhich case New card doNewCard break case etc end menupick And then in the card or stack: on doNewCard custom stuff here create card end doNewCard That should work. If it doesn't, then the doNewCard handler isn't in the message path and you'd need to figure out why. Often, if you are testing in the IDE, it is Revolution's menus that will get the message, not yours. Rev will make a new card and your own menupick will never fire. (You can test whether this is the case by setting a breakpoint in your menupick handler. If it doesn't break, your menu isn't getting the command.) To make sure you are really triggering own menus on Mac, set editmenus to false so that your menu bar is in the system menu. Or if editmenus is true, specifically choose the New Card item from your menu using the mouse. On Windows and Linux, use the mouse to make sure you are triggering your own menu and not Rev's.

AW: AW: How to keep dir structure when building standalone?
Hi Devin, thank you for your explanation, I think I got the setting of the path correct. (I also tried your function, which is similar to mine) My problem is building the standalone bundle for the Mac on a Win PC. In the development environment my file.db is in the defaultfolder/resources (in your example). In the standalone settings I pointed to the file.db to be taken in the standalone. 1. Now, when building the standalone, the builder puts my DBfile in the MacOS folder (what is the defaultfolder) and not in a subfolder /resources. Why? 2. the DBfile, which the standalonebuilder has put in the MacOS folder has 0 kbWhy ? 3. When creating the /resources/file.db (with a correct file.db) in the standalone MacOS folder after having build the standalone and testing it on a Mac, he doesn't find my file.db though my resource path is correct (tested) 4. Only when creating on the Mac a /resources/file.db folder and file outside of the Mac prog.app in the same folder as the prog.app, my prog finds the file.db. Is my problem located in the building of the standalone, where you can't push manually folder and files into, after having created? But why does the standalone finds my file in a folder outside of the prog.app in the same root as prog.app: /resources/file.db ?

Re: Intercepting new card
Originally my menuPick handler was in the stack script, but as I found out, that didn't work so I inserted the stub into the frontScripts to call the custom handler in the stack. The problem with that was that when the custom handler fired it was trying to act on revMenubar, so I had to set the defaultStack to the topStack first. What a wasted morning.

quicktime player in stackrunner and rev player with macbook air
Hi, I¹ve got a pretty complex stack that has always worked on both macs (ppc/intel) and windows computers, which utilizes a player to play mp3 snippets I distribute this to students via Stackrunner (or the Rev player application). With my new Macbook Air, however, I notice that the quicktime player doesn¹t seem to work, with either Stackrunner or the Rev Player, though the player _does_ work when I open the stack in Studio 2.9 on my MacBook Air. In Stackrunner (and the Player), there is no player visible and no audio. Is there anything I can do to make this work in Stackrunner (which I love)? Thanks. rand valentine ___ 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

Path to a double-clicked document
How do I get the path to a file that was double-clicked in the OS (Mac, Windows, and Linux) that opens my standalone? The association of the standalone to files with a particular extension is set on the Mac and Windows gives the user the ability to set up the association if I didn't set it in the registry. I want the document files for my application to live in a particular folder and not be anywhere on the drive. When the user double clicks the file on the file system or as an email attachment, I want to catch it and offer the user the ability to copy the file from where it is to where I want it to be. I assume getting the path will be the same for all the platforms and I can write the copy/move routine.

Since you use the splash stack design I would put it in a library stack so that it catches the message regardless of which stack is frontmost. Note that you may need to check that your application has finished loading in the appleEvent. If double-clicking on the file causes the OS to launch your application then the appleEvent might be received before all of your application stacks have opened. on appleEvent pClass, pID, pSender if pClass is aevt and pID is odoc then request appleEvent data put it into theFiles ## files OS is requesting your application opens. if theFiles is not not found then if theFiles is not empty then ## DON'T PASS, CRASHES CAN OCCUR (TESTING UNDER 2.8) else pass appleEvent end if else pass appleEvent end if else pass appleEvent end if end appleEvent Windows: If your application is not running yet then the file paths will be passed in the command line arguments - $1, $2, etc. Revolution 2.9 added $# which tells you how many command line arguments were passed to the application so the following code will create a return delimited list of argument passed to your application at launch. It is up to you to verify the params are paths to one of your files. repeat with i = 1 to $# put value($ i) into theValue put theValue cr after theFiles end repeat If your application is already running then you need to handle the 'relaunch' command in the stack you use to create the executable. Again, you should check that your application has finished loading before doing anything as the relaunch command could be sent before your application has completely loaded (you are using splash stack technique). on relaunch repeat with theCounter = 1 to the paramcount put param(theCounter) cr after theFiles end repeat end relaunch Linux: No idea, sorry.

Got it...I was in too much of a hurry - it does work in a 'virgin' stack - the problem is that I've been experimenting with doing my own stack decorations, and it seems like if the OS title bar buttons are missing, then you simply can't iconify, which is a pain, but makes some kind of sense...

Re: Little Transcript Help Over Here, Please
You seem to be declaring a global inside a handler and then trying to access the global outside the handler without declaring the global. Common practice is to declare global at the top of the script, and then it is accessible to any handler in that script. Ex. -- stack script Global bobtest On openstack put hey into bobtest End openstack On revealbobtest put bobtest -- the message box End revealbobtest The above works because the scope of the global is the stack script itself, NOT the handler, whose scope expires with the termination of the handler.
