Re: Binary files inconsistency
Different than other file systems. Pages and keynote documents are not files but packages with many files inside.

Re: Implementing a library of behavior buttons across multiple applications
Hi Peter, No, you don't need to include the operating system's path to the stack file. For example, the following is a correct reference for a behavior: button id 1015 of stack Untitled 1 You can keep one copy of your stack with parent objects on your hard disk and add this stack to the stackfiles property of the mainstack of your project. When you build the standalone, the stack will be copied into your standalone and above reference will still work. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer Economy-x-Talk is always looking for new projects.

Re: RevBrowserPrint
I am looking for a solution to print pdf files from the browser. problems to summit up regarding the limitations of revBrowserPrint command : 1) No background print process : revbrowser systematicaly calls the dialog, no parameters can be passed and you get no answer about what has been going on. In my case, I wanted preset pdf printing and give a file name. Out it goes! (why are so many basic needs only fullfilled to 90% by runrev implementation... begining tro drive me nuts and doubtful!) 2) Not reliable for flash content : doe not seem to print out flash content... which is a serious problem for a lot of sites.. and revBrowser is often crashed on intensive flash based sites when revBrowserPrint is called (my experience on macBook mac os x 10.5.8). 3) Sometimes prints the whole html page, good, but other times only the visible portion of the browser, like a picture, and that is no good! I did not quite get the rationale of it (when exacly and why..). it seems it may be linked with 2) maybe trying to offer an alternate view when not able to print the flash content!? to be a little bit positive, I'll have to troddle on and see what can be done with safari scripting but there goes the windows compatibility away and the whole point of using runrev as a multi-platform dev tool..

I think I see what you are trying to achieve. But even if Rev supported discontinuous selections in an editable field, how would you actually select the various chunks? Normally, the current selection is released when you click somewhere else in the field. But if you did it by holding down the commandKey, which also generates a mouseUp message, then couldn't you: on mouseUp set the textstyle of the selectedChunk to bold storeHTMLTextSomeWhere end mouseUp I am interested to see how the multiple selections are actually made if this is a new feature in an upcoming release.

That can't be done with an SQL statement because the SQL command is performed by the database itself. So if you send a SQL command to the MySQL database it's getting executed by the MySQL engine, not by rev. The MySQL engine has no knowledge of any other databases, and so it would fail. I think the only way around this is to issue two SQL commands, one to MySQL, one to SQLite, then take the recordsets and mangle them yourself, pretending that you're the cross-db-type engine.

Re: Implementing a library of behavior buttons across multiple applications
Thanks for the explanation Richard. This stuff isn't made any easier by the fact that there are multiple names available for the same thing - behavior=parentScript apparently. Getting back to Mark's answer and the use of stack files, I see two separate places where additional stack files can be specified - the stackFiles property of the main Stack (or the equivalent pane in the main stack inspector), and the Stacks pane of the Standalone Application Settings which gives rise to the question, what is the relationship between these two settings? Does one override the other? Is stackFiles operative for the development environment only and the standalone setting for standalone applications only?

Re: Implementing a library of behavior buttons across multiple applications
Peter Haworth wrote: Thanks for the explanation Richard. This stuff isn't made any easier by the fact that there are multiple names available for the same thing - behavior=parentScript apparently. You can safely ignore parentScript. That was the name that I used when I first proposed this feature many years ago, having picked it up from meetings with the SuperCard team years earlier when they were considering it. Rev adopted it for an early beta distribution, but by Beta 2 they had come up with behavior instead, and noted in the ParentScript Notes that parentScript is deprecated; while it's currently accepted as a synonym for behavior to help a few people who started building big projects with that early beta, it won't live forever. Getting back to Mark's answer and the use of stack files, I see two separate places where additional stack files can be specified - the stackFiles property of the main Stack (or the equivalent pane in the main stack inspector), and the Stacks pane of the Standalone Application Settings which gives rise to the question, what is the relationship between these two settings? Does one override the other? Is stackFiles operative for the development environment only and the standalone setting for standalone applications only? Two different things: The Stacks pane in the SB is used for copying separate stack files into the file that will become the standalone. The stackfiles property of a stack is a list which allows the engine to easily locate stacks which aren't in the stackfile so that you can still refer to them by just their short name in your scripts. For example, if you have a stack named Behaviors in a stack file named Behaviors.rev in a folder named Components which is in the same folder as your stack file or standalone, you can set the stackfile's property of your stack to: Behaviors,Components/Behaviors.rev ...and the engine will then know exactly where to find the stack whenever your scripts refer to a stack named Behaviors. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Rev training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for Rev developers: http://www.revjournal.com revJournal blog: http://revjournal.com/blog.irv ___ 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

Re: How to Dial Using Rev ?
Hi Jaque, Surely Gary must have a phone line and relatively old iMac with built-in modem, or at least a modem, or he wouldn't be wanting to use what he assumes to be a dial-up routine to an external device? It's over 15 years since I did anything with at AT codes, but I can remember the pain of having to look them up every time I went to a service call where I didn't know the hardware. AT is the required prefix to initiate any command. The AT does not have to be repeated for each command and one string can contain many commands. S7 is the number of seconds to wait for carrier signal when the other end answers Ln is the Loudness of the modem speaker (usually 0-3) DT is Dial using Tone So in this case, the command is ATS7=1L0DT followed by the number and a Carriage Return meaning : Wait 1 second for carrier when the other end answers. (ie it must start quickly after picking up.) Set speaker level to lowest. Dial the number using Tones. So, if you are reading this Gary:- Please tell us what you are actually wanting to do and if you have a built-in or USB modem. ie. Why do you want to use this routine, when you don't really know what it is? Douglas On 23/05/2010 05:48, J.

I imagine the dialing code is similar, but figuring it out is beyond my expertise. Does anyone have any suggestions at to what to do, where to look, who to ask, etc ? The equivalent on a Mac would be identical, except instead of com3 you'd want to use modem as the port specifier. Both the PC com3 port and the Mac modem port are serial ports. Rev can write to those just fine, but the problem you will find on your iMac is that it won't have any serial ports; Macs haven't supported those for some years, nor do they ship any longer with internal modems. You can buy USB modems, but unfortunately Rev can't read or write to USB ports. So if you have an older Mac that has a real serial modem port, you can dial with the above script by substituting modem for the port. But on your iMac, no go. ___ 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

Reverse Intersect
Hi all. I know the Intersect command removes keys in array-1 that don't exist in array-2. What I need however is a command that removes keys in array-1 that DO exist in array-2, so that array-1 contains all the keys I need to add. Why you ask? Why not just use the Union command? Because I need to find all the records in table-a that need to be added to table b. And since I am paging through table a a limited number of records at a time, (to prevent Rev memory overflow for large tables) I cannot simply use an SQL query join, and as I said in a prior post the tables are in disconnected databases. So what I am doing is getting 100 records from table-a as a string, massaging it a bit to form a comma delimited list, then using the SQL IN operator to get what records there are in table-b that are already in table-a. At that point I need to eliminate the table-b keys from the table-a keys, and what I will have left are the keys that need to be inserted into table-b. Simple. See? ;-) So is there any way to do this without a repeat loop? I can always do a repeat loop, but they weary me. sigh ;-) Bob ___ 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

Re: Reverse Intersect
Thanks for the reply Stephen. What I want to end up with is an array of ONLY the keys that exist in the first array that do NOT exist in the second. Otherwise I simply end up with identical arrays that both contain all the keys from the first and the second arrays. I should mention that it is the nature of the data that the second array is some subset of the first, and the goal is to find the records in the first array that are not in the second.

Re: Reverse Intersect
Hi Mark. Thanks for the interest. My apologies to everyone for the length of this post. First, remember that I am working with paged data. The reason is this: Let's say the source database has a million records. Since I cannot use a join due to the fact they are dissimilar databases that are not connected in any way, I am going to have to query both databases seperately, yes? If I query the destination database for all it's keys I want to use to find records in the source database, on the first pass with an empty destination database I am going to return every single record! Huge dataset, Revolution crashes! But let's say I get away with it and Revolution does not crash (yet). Now I have to issue an SQL statement to the destination database something like SELECT sw_id FROM devices WHERE IN (insert huge million item comma delimited string here). If I don't kill the SQL server, I will probably kill Revolution this time with yet another 1 million record data set! You may say I could use WHERE NOT IN (insert huge million item comma delimited string here), but it doesn't solve my huge dataset and query problem. If I am paging through the data, then I will get every record not in the page, even if they exist in both databases. The solution? Page through the source database a reasonable number of records at a time, say 100 or 1000 or 10,000 depending on what the limits of Revolution and SQL are. Now my second query will return a dataset with matching records, excluding the records that haven't been added yet. At this point I have a dataset with all the records in my page, and another dataset with all the records in my destination database with matching keys, a subset of my paged data. Now I need to find out what those keys are that are in my page dataset that are not in my destination dataset. Hence my need for a reverse intersect command. My strategy of working with one record at a time proved to be cumbersome, especially with a remote SQL server where internet lag plays a part. Whether I use a temporary table or memory variables to work with the data seems irrelevant, except that the SQL database is remote, remember? Lag issues. The less individual queries I make, the better the performance will be.

Re: Galaga 1990
Hi Generic: I took a look at your stack and you've done everything right from a conceptual standpoint. All your code makes sense. The problem you're running into is Rev's real world behavior and performance -- Rev is not multi-threaded and is not suited to managing lots of sub-second messages simultaneously. The practical way to do what you want is to use a single master repeat loop that handles all animation, movement, key tracking etc. This may seem counterintuitive to what you're trying to teach, but it's really the only way to get any smooth performance out of Rev that's suitable for a game. I modified your stack as an example of one way to enhance performance. Execute the following in your Rev message box: go url http://www.tactilemedia.com/download/Galaga_1990_mod.rev; All the code is at the stack level. Shots are limited to one at a time on screen, which of course you can change. Given what you've built so far, I think you'll be able to easily grasp what's going and modify as needed. Good luck.
