Jacqueline,

So then, is the Documents folder you're saving to the same folder that Apple 
expects? In other words can you register that folder as a shared folder and see 
the contents in iTunes?


Thanks

 Basic file read/write and file URL access works now. I'm saving a text-based 
 prefs file to the Documents folder in the app sandbox.

Well this would be great news for  a few projects of mine. In xCode you have to 
register in the applications pList file for Document Sharing in order to 'turn 
on' this feature.

 I think so, but I've only tested in the simulator so far. But the docs say 
 the Documents folder is compatible with iTunes expectations, and that it's 
 seen and backed up by iTunes. There's no indication you need to do anything 
 in particular to get that behavior, it just happens.

Re: LiveCode and the Mac App Store

2010-11-17 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Ron,

I haven't used LC for the APPLE desktop store yet but I am developing a few 
applications for the APP iOS store. In the APP iOS store application you can 
not spit out stacks as in 1. and although you could auto check for upgrades 3. 
you could not download them because Apple won't allow it except through the APP 
iOS store upgrade mechanism. I do list my homepage in my app and on the APP iOS 
store in iTunes.

I would assume that for the APPLE desktop store there will be some restrictions 
but not as tight as the APP iOS store. I haven't looked into it yet but I would 
think that the auto upgrade 3. will not be possible since by using the APPLE 
store your are agreeing to use their auto upgrade features. Not sure about the 
prefs or saving a stack out or the home page listing for an APPLE desktop store 
application.

Re: LiveCode and the Mac App Store

2010-11-17 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Ron,

I haven't tried in the latest release but before that there was no way for iOS 
to save out a stack or a preferences file that I know of. In xCode you have a 
few choices. Either save to the settings pane via API provided by apple or you 
could save a pList to 'your sandbox' documents folder and read that in. I think 
-- not sure -- that LC is allowing an internal -- in your bundle -- documents 
folder that you can write to. I just don't know if this is the same folder that 
iOS lets you write to. The other choice you have is to write to an external 
server and read that in on launch. The problem with that approach is that the 
app would have to be connected to the internet when launched.

FWIW, If it is the exact same folder THEN it will be possible to register with 
iOS and iTunes a shared folder that will be available via iTunes for manually 
putting and getting files from/into your app.

I am working on a few different apps now and will have more info over the next 
week or so.

 So what do you do for saving prefs for your iOS app? It sounds like
 the Apple upgrade mechanism is compatible with a LC app but do we need
 to do anything to link to it?

Re: LiveCode applications accepted in iOS App Store

2010-10-28 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Kevin,

FYI,
I'm surprised the app was accepted because it has the text IPHONE TEST APP on 
the background and Apple's submission guidelines specifically state that no 
'test apps should be submitted. It is a minor thing for sure and the app 
itself seems ready for prime time but I would be prepared that the next time an 
Apple tester reviews it (updates etc.) that they may reject the app with that 
background.

 There are lots of things we could add to this game. Really though the

 produce a best seller, it was to get the binaries and associated data into

Although it is possible to 'get' the current track info from obj-c  but I very

We need an external pass through for revMobile that will let us do calls to

 As far as I know, the only information that is synced back from my iPod to

 If this is simply impossible, could there be some kind of workaround? For

 to a text file on the iPod, along with the data I would like to add/modify. 
 When connected to the Mac, an AppleScript could process that text file to 
 make the changes to the corresponding track(s) in iTunes.
 
 Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

Re: tRev

2010-09-21 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I am confused. I went to tRev site and re-downloaded and got another app 
instead but which looks like tRev.

Loaded and it works. Then had to renew license (just did - I love tRev). But 
now it downloads older version of tRev which states it is not most recent 
version and when clicked on takes to same old previous version.

Re: The State of Rev (Was Re: [ANN] Rodeo IDE preview video)

2010-06-01 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I agree with both Andre and Richards responses to these issues brought up in 
this excellent thread. One of the things Peter brought up was about the idea of 
having to buy a 3d party add on to get expected functionality out of the Rev 
IDE. Andre and Richards responses were right on/spot on about this. But, Peter 
mentioned the editor as one of these and I agree with him that the internal 
editor is too flaky (thanks Andre) and as a result of too many crashes related 
to the built-in editor have had to buy tRev/switch to tRev in order to get some 
of my latest projects out the door. 

I would rather have 'chosen' to use tRev because of its great features (of 
which it has many, many great features), than having 'had' to use it because 
the internal editor just doesn't work well enough for professional development. 
I think Peter's inclusion of the Editor points to a real problem and to the 
impressions that he points out. 

I think this impression is accurate only in the case of the built-in editor 
which, I hope, will be fixed in the next release. The other Rev-Select Add-ons 
fall into the 'really great enhancements to RunRev' category and do not 
necessarily fall into the 'need to make up for something that should work but 
doesn't ' in RunRev category.

I think the more important thing to learn here is what some of the current 
impressions of RR are and why. How RR is perceived (especially by new comers to 
the world of RR) should help point us/RR to the areas that need the most 
improvement.

Re: never ending scroll?

2010-05-27 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Nicolas,

Most of the iPhone's scroll-wheels are linked to tables and the tables are 
lazily loaded (via reusable cells) at runtime. Most of the scroll-wheels I have 
seen stop at the top or bottom of the content that it is trying to scroll. 
Where or what are you referring to? (To better understand the action you are 
looking for.) 

In a different project I have an iPhone scrolling window and not a table that 
still lazily loads it's views from a reusable view in the same way as the cells 
are reused in a table with scroll-wheel. So, The scrolling windows in my case 
can wrap around to the beginning if the view or cell is lazily loaded when 
needed.

Maybe there is a way to lazily load content or fields IN groups in RR to 
emulate that. I would look at a group that has a scroll-wheel and see if items 
can be deleted from one side (hidden from view) and loaded on the other side 
(hidden from view) based on the scroll position.

Let us know,

 All I could think of so far is to use a scrollable field, but whose
 scroll action is handled by button script rather than directly through
 the field's scrollbar.
 
 Any ideas?

Re: never ending scroll?

2010-05-27 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Nicolas,

The clock application uses a specially made DatePicker object loosely based on 
a PickerView. xCode provides the DatePicker for use in projects and it has it's 
own settings for either Date  Time, Time, Date, and Timer which then populates 
the cells of the DatePicker.

If I were to build something like the DatePicker in xCode (a custom picker) I 
would use the PickerView and provide it a dataSource with say 1 to 100 and then 
set it up so that the cells were both reusable and lazily loaded. That way when 
the Picker View gets to 96 (5 rows are displayed in a Date Picker) it is 
displaying 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, and when I scroll to 97 it will populate the 
last cell with 1 which used to be 100 and so on. Lazy loading only loads enough 
cells in this case to have them loaded just prior to viewing them on screen. 
The same would hold true going in the reverse.

I think this would be possible but difficult with a text field using it's own 
scrollbar. Maybe it is more doable with a data Grid? I haven't played heavily 
with a DG yet. Maybe someone can chime in on this.

For me, I still think a group is the way to go though and using cells made up 
of text fields. Load the data in the cells when needed and have 15 cells where 
only 5 are visible and keep adding a cell to the bottom of the list or top 
depending on which direction you are going in.

Cheers,

Re: OT: [Mac OSX] Is it possible to have Dashcode 2 and Dashcode 3 on the same Machine?

2010-05-14 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Matthias,

I keep a copy of each of two versions of xcode on my machine but the Developer 
folder is blessed so I have to keep one of the copies on a separate hard drive 
and delete the other when working with them. I tried just renaming them and 
keeping both at the same time but since the root path is so inherent in most of 
the functionality of the dev tools I ran into trouble. 

I installed the full product then copied it to an external hard drive. I then 
installed the other version and copied that to the external drive as well 
renamed so I would know which was which. Then when I need to dev in one I copy 
that one over named correctly and start using it. 

Not the best solution but it worked for me.

 Hi all,
 
 i want to play around a little bit with QuickConnectiPhone (a javascript 
 framework). But for that i need Dashcode 2 on my machine, because the 
 templates of QuickConnectiPhone are only Dascode 2 compatible. 
 
 Does anymone know, if it is possible to have Xocde SDKs installed on the same 
 machine. Do i have to install it just into an other folder? Any help is 
 appreciated.

Dashcode 2 came out in 3.1 in beta and I use 3.2.2 where Dashcode is now 3.

So I am assuming that anything before 3.2 would have it.

Re: Thoughts on Kevin's announcement

2010-05-12 Thread Thomas McGrath III
René,

You could of course start developing with RunRev for revServer and then you 
would get to target all mobile and web devices, as well as Linux.

A revServer option would allow for both native and browser based applications. 
Which, before this past year, was were all of the talk was centered around. Web 
Apps are still very relevant and will work in a native browser wrapper on most 
mobile phones directly.

What we need is a community wide collection of revServer 'objects' 'scripts' 
for each of the desired targets and target features.

 I read ALL the posts about RevMobile iPad published before and after the 
 Kevin's announcement (difficult because I understand directly approximately 
 50% of what I read).
 As a non-professional developper not interested by AppStore, at this time 6 
 (+2?) solutions are available to me :
 1.Expect a change in strategy from Apple  I don't believe it, especially 
 since I agree with, roughly, the arguments of Steve
   Jobs (I am not a fanatic cross-plateform).
 2.Begin to explore Objective-C with the help of my daughter who decided 
 to join it (she's an ActionScripter...)  I find it
   hard to believe considering my age and my abilities
 3.Expect Hypercard for iPad suitable to Mr. Jobs...  good wills ?
 4.Expect a multitouch Wacom Wifi tablet (like Cintiq but multitouch and 
 Wifi)  in this case it would multitouch functions in
   RunRev
 5.Use RevMobile for iPad in his unfinished version  Full features ? What 
 price ? Compiler ? and Kevin said : We can no
   longer create the native interface objects layer, but rather invite our 
 community to develop a set of emulated object.
   This last point does not bother me too much, it is a form of very 
 interesting challenge and it is a bit what I am doing now
   with RunRev (the Macintosh interface unsatisfactory) ...
 6.Watch the side of Rodeo  it feel interesting but it feel complicated 
 (perhaps I am wrong...)
 If some of you are interested in the point 5, I would be glad to talk with 
 them...
 
 -- After that line, that's humor! ;-)
 I thought also two other solutions :
 7.Start a hunger strike  impossible, I'm french and in France the food 
 is sacred!
 8.Immolate by the fire surrounded by all my Macintoshes (128K, SE30, 
 IIfx, MacPorts, PowerBook 170, PB5040, PB G3
   Series, PB Titanium PB G4 12 iMac G7 27, sorry I have no iPhone and 
 not yet iPad [28th May]) under the Eiffel
   Tower  It's the Steve Jobs's favorite monument !

Re: Thoughts on Kevin's announcement

2010-05-12 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Richard,
I don't know that it would require a complete 100% 'learning' of javascript, 
exactly, but rather a sharing of javascript resources that are directly tied to 
irev scripts and UI objects. This is what has been happening already. I need to 
know how to tie in something I want to do with irev on my site and I go to 
Sarah's site to see how she tied it into JS (as an example.) This kind of 
shared resources can lead to a very nice collection of objects and scripts for 
RunRev users.

René,

I love this article by Richard: 
http://www.fourthworld.com/embassy/articles/netapps.html

I can't speak for Rodeo (You will have to ask Jerry or Sarah) but as far as I 
know, Rodeo is just for iPhone/iPad but revServer(iRev and revCGI) is for 'all' 
platforms that have a browser and internet connection.

revServer uses revolution in a browser window with out the need for downloading 
plugins but requires a RunRev engine on the server.

It works right now without any violations of any licenses out of the box on all 
web/browser enabled mobile devices.

Check it out on the RunRev site.

Will trade iPhone development for revServer development

2010-05-10 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I am willing to discuss trading equal services for those that were relying on 
developing for the iPhone/iPad. I have written four applications for the iPhone 
and iPad so far, two of which are for my self and two others were for a client. 
I have been prototyping iPhone apps since the beginning and smartphone apps for 
nine years, eight of which were in RunRev. The four applications were written 
exclusively in ObjectiveC using Apples APIs and Apples xCode application.

What I need in return is some revServer work to compliment a few of my 
iPhone/iPad projects. 

If you are interested in swapping time for time let me know off list at

I am so very very interested in pushing an ALICE port to the next level. If you 
have a start in MC, regardless of code quality, it would still be the spark 
needed for pushing a new effort in creating this. Again, I have wanted to 
create this for a long time with many false starts and course corrections. I 
actually started one years ago in SC but have since lost that code. So, if 
anyone else is interested in working on this I am ready to devote some time to 
it. Our community could use a project like this in times like this, I think.

Jacque? David? 

This would be most awesome.

Unity3D:
We haven’t heard anything from Apple about this affecting us, Our 
current best guess is that we’ll be fine.

Full quote:

Unity and the iPhone OS 4.0
by David Helgason on Rants  Raves
Hey guys,I just wanted to thank our forum users for their support and 
thoughtful analyses about Apple’s new ToS (terms of service) for its iPhone OS 
4.0, due to be released this summer. As you are probably all aware by now, the 
new ToS has led to widespread speculation on blogs and in the trade press about 
how the change in wording could affect products marketed on the Apple 
AppStore.As is so often the case with “legalese,” the new ToS are difficult to 
parse with certainty and open to broad interpretation—particularly by Apple 
itself. Some have noted that the strictest possible interpretation could 
prohibit many products from being marketed on the App Store. Others have argued 
that under more benign interpretations of the new terms, Unity and others will 
be just fine.Apple has built a tremendous marketplace for all of us, and it’s 
great for those who successfully take advantage of it. The flipside, of course, 
is that the power there so clearly resides with Apple.This is certainly not the 
first time that developers of all types of apps have faced sometimes confusing 
changes in rules, or their interpretation. It’s a risk we all run in basing 
parts of our businesses on Apple.Here at Unity, we are working hard on getting 
good information, and working to understand whether – or how – the new changes 
could affect the developer community and others. We have reached out to both 
official and unofficial contacts at Apple, we are talking to other companies in 
a similar situation to us, and we’ve been diligent in reading the ToS to get to 
the best legal (and business-wise) analysis of it.We haven’t heard anything 
from Apple about this affecting us, and we believe that with hundreds of titles 
(or probably over a thousand by now), including a significant proportion of the 
best selling ones, we’re adding so much value to the iPhone ecosystem that 
Apple can’t possibly want to shut that down.Our current best guess is that 
we’ll be fine. But it would obviously be irresponsible to guarantee that. What 
I can guarantee is that we’ll continue to do everything in our power to make 
this work, and that we will be here to inform you when we know more – as soon 
as we know more.PS. In the ancient days of the App Store (July 2008), Apple 
very late changed the kernel to disallow JIT (just-in-time) compilation. What 
we did instead was spend several months changing Mono to AOT (ahead of time) 
compile scripts instead (this is why some dynamic constructs in our JavaScript 
doesn’t work on the iPhone). It was a lot of work, but we made it work to 
enable all these amazing Unity games to be sold in the App Store, many of which 
have gone on to be bestsellers and made their creators rich and famous.Thanks 
again for your support. We’re so very proud of you all.

fine.

Apple has built a tremendous marketplace for all of us, and it’s great for 
those who successfully take advantage of it. The flipside, of course, is that 
the power there so clearly resides with Apple.

This is certainly not the first time that developers of all types of apps have 
faced sometimes confusing changes in rules, or their interpretation. It’s a 
risk we all run in basing parts of our businesses on Apple.

Here at Unity, we are working hard on getting good information, and working to 
understand whether – or how – the new changes could affect the developer 
community and others.  We have reached out to both official and unofficial 
contacts at Apple, we are talking to other companies in a similar situation to 
us, and we’ve been diligent in reading the ToS to get to the best legal (and 
business-wise) analysis of it.

We haven’t heard anything from Apple about this affecting us, and we believe 
that with hundreds of titles (or probably over a thousand by now), including a 
significant proportion of the best selling ones, we’re adding so much value to 
the iPhone ecosystem that Apple can’t possibly want to shut that down.

Our current best guess is that we’ll be fine. But it would obviously be

Re: Check out Jerry's new videos

2010-05-07 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I already have a life time subscription to on-rev's revServer and I already own 
tRev, tText, revMobile, RunRev. So I am a bit confused about what is being 
offered by Rodeo? On the surface it looks like a 'controlled' access to on-rev 
through privately owned Rodeo and that the benefit of paying this extra $10 a 
month is that you will provide some iRev Libraries to handle iPad specific UI 
elements and or access to webKit in a web app???

I hope this is not the case as right away I can see that this will inhibit 
contributions to a 'free' repository of library like snippets for us on-rev 
users.

 Neal,
 
 Thanks, for Kicking In, btw!
 
 Rodeo's emphasis on server technology is a big plus:
 
 1. We are really leveraging revServer to make it fast and develop it fast.
 2. This eliminates the need to update client apps as Rodeo improves.
 
 Best,

 Its nothing like the ease of Rev (its ,Net after all) but I think its a

 If so, they will eventually face the courts on that issue for sure.

 You seem to be the one the typing in all caps. The fact is, the 4
 SDK license may not be a permanent one, and the more heat placed on Steve
 Jobs and Apple over it, the more there is a chance for Apple to change their

 Tom, it's a user list where we discuss issues relative to RunRev. I've paid
 significant dollars and invested time for RevMobile in order to program for
 iPad, only to have Steve Jobs retroactively change the license agreement
 against cross platform tools for iPhone/iPad. I am sorry you're having such

Re: Shiny apple-looking Android

2010-05-06 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Roger,

I have been keeping an eye on that one too. It looks nice. I don't know if it 
is the same one Adobe had at it's booth a few weeks ago but it looks the same.
Even if it isn't, it will be great to have more platforms to develop for and 
more devices. Like I've said, this can only be good for us as cross-platform 
developers. And, if I can continue to help more handicapped people with 
inexpensive and helpful software on great devices then we all win.

 at least there is the Android marketplace (app store) and other outlets to
 sell apps.  Many consumers will go for these less expensive and more open
 devices. The media playback and supported formats on this thing rocks!

 Nice, and timely - I noticed this morning that Android was recently added to 
 the official list of OSes to be supported by RevMobile:

Re: Newbie question

2010-05-04 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Steve, Welcome to RR.

I also came from the HC/SC background and was taken by the group behave 
issue, at first it seemed an oversight to a much used convention. But since 
I've been using RR I have found that I use backgrounds less and less. I think 
this is one thing that truly differentiates RR from HC and SC. In HC I used 
Cards with backgrounds in every project, then in SC I made the jump to windows 
with many cards and some backgrounds and now I use many stacks with windows 
with some cards and very few backgrounds. It is a change in the way I have come 
to think about our style of programming. The message path and properties etc. 
take on a much more important roll nowadays and some things like background 
behaviors taken on a much smaller role.

Anyway, you seem to have found what you need so Welcome and hope to see you 
more on the list.

 Aha - that was it.  Didn't even see that option.  No very intuitive.  You

 flexibility that way.
 
 Thanks!

 What might I be doing wrong?
 
 Look in the inspector palette for the group, and see if its Behave like a

 I am embarrassed to say that I have watched this several times after 
 unearthing it. It brings back such mixed memories.
 
 I might add that Bob West, the first and original voice of Barney, was an 
 active participant on the AOL HC Forum, and was occasionally annoyed that his 
 rapt audience became sour critics after a few years, and mildly irritated 
 that they persisted in uploading these files. I had the good fortune to talk 
 to him on the phone once about some AOL business, and he kept changing his 
 voice between his natural one, Barney, and various other characters and 
 accents, leaving me in stitches, not to mention confused about who I was 
 really talking to. He was a joy, a really nice guy.

 At times I make my own gif animations (Fireworks), and when these are

 When gifs don't play well, it's the gif's transparency that goes
 screwy. Some frames get drawn ok (seems to be the original frames
 rather than the copied frames), but other frames seem to be half there
 with fuzzy edges. But If I run the same gif on a browser, no
 problems.
 
 By way of solution, during save-as I've tried alpha- and
 index-transparency (no idea what those mean), but that didn't work.
 
 Anyone more versed in animated gif design have any guesses as to what
 I'm doing wrong and how to fix it?

Re: [slightly OT] Off for a couple of days

2010-04-14 Thread Thomas McGrath III
My iPad app was designed in RunRev (as are most of my ideas) and then built in 
ObjC in xCode with xib files done in Interface Builder. The XML/PLIST creator 
and editor for all of the pList files was built in RunRev as well. The logic is 
pretty much the same but the syntax of course is very different.

I use pLists for the databases (4 of them) and in my ObjC code I use pretty 
much the same switch/case and if/thens and repeats. It is the API calls that 
are very different. The biggest problem I have coming from RunRev is Global 
variables (I have to use NSUserDefaults for a lot of my needs) and poor string 
manipulation(string to integer, string to methods, parameters, etc., what I 
would do for 'put word 2 to -1 of it into gVariable'). I don't know how many 
times I have said 'If only this were in rev! I would know just the quickest way 
to do this and be done by now.' Still this entire app was thought out, 
designed, built and debugged and tested in under four weeks, just in time for 
inclusion in the app store grand opening. That's pretty cool. 

My next app will be designed in RunRev and then I will build it in ObjC (unless 
RevMobile is done) and will have a RunRev backend on my on-rev server. I 
foresee many levels of integration like that in my apps, no matter what happens 
with RevMobile.

Re: Question about RevMobile

2010-04-10 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Rand,

Using revMobile you can just install an app right onto the iPhone(soon the 
iPad). I think you still need a provisioning profile from apple but you do not 
need to go through the App store.

And, FWIW, don't take these recent discussions as the final word on anything 
about revMobile. Most comments here on the list about the new license agreement 
from Apple are just guesses at best and downright misleading at worst. Some 
can't seem to help airing out their worst fears in public. I've seen this so 
many times . I would not make any judgements about any of this until you 
hear otherwise from runRev.

 about implementing anything on an iDevice-- say I write a cute little

 see, while I'd love to get rich writing nifty iDevice apps, I am primarily a

 allow me to rapidly develop killer apps for research that I use and share
 with a few friends who do similar research. But I'm thinking now that
 perhaps I was misguided in thinking this way about iDevices PRIOR to Apple's
 C-change.
 
 And I must say, although I've owned Macs since first purchasing a new

 SERIOUSLY felt the need to reconsider my loyalty to such a company.

[ANN] [OT] First iPad app approved

2010-04-01 Thread Thomas McGrath III
This is mostly off topic but while I am waiting for revMobile to become a solid 
option I was able over the past three and a half weeks to design and build my 
first iPad application and was approved for inclusion in the grand opening of 
the iPad Store.

The app is a communication software with voice synthesis for people who can not 
speak. The field which I have been in for almost twenty years is AAC - 
Alternative Augmented Communication. Typically these systems cost in the 
thousands but with my new software My Pad Speaks and a $499 iPad a user can 
have a system for under $600 bucks. Now that is a great mix of technology and 
innovation. My application has space for up to 10,000 words in an easy to use 
and easy to learn interface. I have included themes of both backgrounds and 
buttons for end users to customize the system to their personality. This is a 
fun application with a serious side.

My Pad Speaks will be unveiled during the grand opening of the iPad store 
this saturday along with the delivery of the iPad simultaneously in 80 
countries.

My new website (the old one died) is on my on-rev server and can be found at:  
http://mypad.lazyriver.on-rev.com/

Except for the voice synthesis part this entire project could have been done in 
revMobile and would have been easier to do in a shorter period of time. I can't 
wait for revMobile.

Animated gif issue

2010-03-09 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I have a series of gif animations one after the other and while they are going 
through their sequences the user can click a button that moves on past the 
current animation and goes back to an earlier part of the animation. This seems 
to work well except that at the end of all of the sequences -- after the 'game' 
is done -- there is a build up of animations that were interrupted earlier like 
as if they were in a queue. If I click past 6 of the animations then there are 
six iterations at the end. I tried a cancel messages method along with the 
pendingMessages but it does not seem to affect this.

If this makes sense to someone can you point me in the right direction here. It 
is frustrating to say the least.

Re: RevMobile first impressions?

2010-03-04 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Besides getting my very first iPhone app accepted yesterday on the App store -- 
DeMoted -- I then got to play with revMobile. I am very pleased so far. I can't 
wait to build apps in rev for the app store and matching apps on the web. 

I am testing on my actual iPhone (not much of a chance in messing up the iPhone 
since you are in your own sandbox and can not effect other apps or the system) 
and in the Simulator. I took a web based application I have been working on for 
the web and it is now on my iPhone. Five minutes. Unbelievable.

Fonts, fields, as native controls are not implemented correctly yet (look ugly 
like Sarah stated) but custom controls look exactly like they do on the web and 
in RunRev ide. Simple animations work very smoothly. Move command and set the 
location to work great. Mutli touch is not completely as smooth as in a regular 
xCode iPhone app. Drop shadows etc. look better than the same on the web. Fades 
look great. 

Gifs are not supported. PNGs are the preferred format for xCode for the iPhone. 
Some images cause crashes. Wrongly sized stacks seem to not load right. (makes 
sense). Some button presses seem to hang more on the device than in the 
simulator.

Ben was not exaggerating in his time to deployment. It truly is as fast as 
design, build and deploy. The submission process however has taken almost three 
weeks for my app. YMMV.

To be able to use my skills in RunRev across the board like this is a dream 
come true.

 Is it possible to install an app onto an iPhone the way Ben appears to have
 done in the demo?  I know you probably don't want to actually do it with a
 pre-alpha version for risk of seriously messing up your iPhone, but just
 wondered if it is possible.  (If it were, then I might just try it on an
 iTouch if I got daring enough.)
 
 Yes it is possible according to the docs. You have to have an iPhone
 developer license i.e. the $99 per year version, not the free version.
 Then you can use the developer portal to get a provisioning
 certificate for your app. This is needed by the revMobile plugin
 before it can install on the actual device.
 
 This is all exactly the same as if you were developing using XCode.

Playing sound in revWeb revlet

2010-02-24 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I am having a problem getting sounds to play in a revLet in revWeb plugin.

I have tried both of these methods using imported audio clips:
lock screen
go card 2
unlock screen with visual effect dissolve very fast with sound boing.wav

and:

play audioClip boing.wav

Both of these crash the browser window or hang it up in a frozen state. I was 
wondering if anyone else can play a simple sound in the plugin? Also, I am 
going to try different formats today to see if that might clear this up. Any 
experience from other users?

Thanks for any feedback.

Re: Coming back to revTalk after ObjectiveC

2010-02-24 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I didn't notice any issues in xCode because these methods are the norm with 
ObjC but coming back to Rev it becomes clear very quickly that things don't 
'look' right and I could not shake the feeling that my coding seemed 
unnecessarily more complex. After compressing my methods and shortening my 
method names things now 'look' more normal and cleaner too.

I am going back to ObjC this week. I wonder if this issue will appear there as 
well.

 After spending the last nine months teaching myself enough Objective C to

 I submitted the first of my iPhone apps to the app store and am waiting for
 approval. So, while waiting I started two projects, one in Objective C and
 the other in revTalk. Anyway, I am noticing a few problems. First off, all
 of my method names, variable names and parameter names are really really
 long. They are like four or five words long and way too descriptive. Then,
 all of my methods are way too modular. I tried to follow some code I wrote
 and was lost all over the place. I spent a couple hours cleaning up my code
 and spent most of that time compressing separate methods into fewer cleaner
 methods. It seems that in an environment like Rev where a lot of the
 constraints you can find in Objective C aren't there that the bloated-ness
 of these types of things is more obvious. I compared my code to some I wrote
 last year and my code from now just looks 'thicker', 'longer', 'bulkier' and
 I don't think it looks as good as that which I wrote last year.

Coming back to revTalk after ObjectiveC

2010-02-23 Thread Thomas McGrath III
After spending the last nine months teaching myself enough Objective C to write 
some applications for the iPhone and iPad I have noticed some problems coming 
'back' to revTalk...

I submitted the first of my iPhone apps to the app store and am waiting for 
approval. So, while waiting I started two projects, one in Objective C and the 
other in revTalk. Anyway, I am noticing a few problems. First off, all of my 
method names, variable names and parameter names are really really long. They 
are like four or five words long and way too descriptive. Then, all of my 
methods are way too modular. I tried to follow some code I wrote and was lost 
all over the place. I spent a couple hours cleaning up my code and spent most 
of that time compressing separate methods into fewer cleaner methods. It seems 
that in an environment like Rev where a lot of the constraints you can find in 
Objective C aren't there that the bloated-ness of these types of things is more 
obvious. I compared my code to some I wrote last year and my code from now just 
looks 'thicker', 'longer', 'bulkier' and I don't think it looks as good as that 
which I wrote last year.

Interesting,

Andrew,

Things like this might better be asked on the improve list as not everyone will 
be getting the chance for an update here on the use list and you might end up 
letting out info that is expected to be private and under NDA

Re: constantMask not working on Windows

Thanks Alejandro,

Unoptimizing in Gimp solved the problem and I no longer need to use 
constantMask (which doesn't work right on windows). This should be a note in 
the docs.

constantMask not working on Windows

2010-02-16 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I have some gifs in revWeb weblets that have an anomaly due to photoshops 
compression of animated gifs. I used the constant mask on these and it works in 
safari on the Mac but not in safari/ie etc. on Windows. Has anyone come up with 
any workarounds? Is there a better Mac software to create or open/save the gifs 
in to fix this?

Use PNGs - I know, I know But the artist has given me these files and I'd 
like to not bother him if possible.

Thanks in advance,

Re: Noob Stacks Questions

2010-02-10 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Andrew, 
Why not stick to the main stack/ substacks paradigm? It will be a lot easier in 
dealing with paths and can still act like a single application. A lot of people 
will do this even with one stack (i.e. a splash screen stack gets built as the 
standalone and then all substacks stay as stacks. The benefit here is also that 
any changes while running the application will 'take' in a seperate substack of 
a compiled main stack.) Otherwise, every stack will have to find every other 
stack via file paths

Re: Noob Stacks Questions

2010-02-10 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Yes, see the other reply. Also, is is good to think modularly on larger 
projects so as to keep each module as independent as possible. Then like you 
are planning already, one module can be updated or swapped out at any time. So, 
now where do you store information that goes across all modules??? Well, you 
can use text files(on-offline), library stacks, some combination of both, etc.

Re: Noob Stacks Questions

2010-02-10 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Andrew,

You only start using a stack when it is a 'library' like stack with commands 
and functions in it that you need in other stacks. From what I have heard you 
say, that is not what you need.

If you use one main stack and every other stack opens from that then they will 
be substacks or separate stacks and will be easier to save data in and access 
via code from other stacks. 

But if you really want them as separate applications then they should not be 
substacks and will build separately. But then you will need to know their file 
path to interact with them from other stacks and as compiled apps they will not 
'save' data as easily.

Globals are available from within stacks and their substacks and libraries but 
not from other compiled standalones. 

How many (sub)stacks / applications will you end up with? What is the 
relationship between them? Do they need to communicate with each other? How 
much so? Will they need to save data while being used? Do you want one 
Application to launch all of the other Applications? Are they a sub part of the 
main application? Or separate?

go card in revLet

2010-02-09 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I have been building a revlet as a proof of concept. It worked great and as I 
put more features into it I have run into the 'go card' problem.

The thing is if I have a series of commands running and click the next card 
button then it waits until the commands are done and will go to the card, but 
if I wait until the series of commands are done and then click the next card 
button it immediately crashes the browser, every time.

I do have a splash screen that loads , waits, and then goes to the next card 
and it doesn't crash. but any subsequent GO commands crash.

What are the other issues that people are having with the GO command??? I would 
like to either track this down or find a workaround.

Thanks in advance,

Re: Capturing photographs

2010-01-31 Thread Thomas McGrath III
 I built something similar in runRev but had to use Applescript to accomplish 
most of it. It takes a picture and then emails it to me.

I had to cover up the little light on the iSight with black tape.

PS I managed to 'catch' someone at the office going on my computer after I had 
left. It sent the picture to my iPhone and I was able to turn around and head 
back to the office.

Not perfect or finished but interesting anyway.

 This is just a thought as have no time to do this sort of thing just now.

Re: iPadding around?

2010-01-28 Thread Thomas McGrath III

Thank you Sarah,

This is just the beginning of a huge advantage for runrev developers.  
Touch screens have been around for a long time but with no real  
customer base. The size and features of the iPad and the exposure to  
75 Million people is enticing enough for me. I have been writing my  
first and second apps for the iPhone and am branching out to include  
the iPad.


Compare: I wrote a free crossplatform app and marketed it  on the  
internet and got 50 downloads over two years. I co-wrote a free iPhone/ 
iTouch/iPad app and didn't market it, instead we just put it on the  
App store and got over 4,000 downloads in less than a year! ! !


This is by far a fantastic market for us developers and also for  
runrev to pick up on technologies like touch events and to explore  
portability issues.

While I have no idea of the market for Rev and how it is divided among
the platforms, I would suggest that there is far more commercial sense
in expanding Rev to the iPhone/iPad market, perhaps at the expense of
the Linux market. So long as your app uses standard APIs (which would
be RunRev's responsibility) and doesn't try to do anything too
obviously against Apple's guide lines (which are agreed to in advance
by all registered iPhone developers), then Apple gives you a fantastic
marketing tool in the App store, as well as a standard platform where
your apps run in their own sandbox and cannot be accused of
interfering with other apps.

To me, this seems like a fantastic market for us as developers, and I
certainly plan to exploit the iPhone/iPad for in-house applications.
as well.

Talking in purely commercial terms, I think this would be a much more
logical direction for RunRev than continuing to try to support Linux
with all it's multiple varieties and it's general ethos for open
source and mainly free software. There are already 75 million iPhone
users and that number will only increase with the iPad. And these
people are already used to paying for apps over the App store.

Cheers,
Sarah

You do not need to add the keyboard dock accessory since it has the  
almost full size touch keyboard! And trying to push the iPad to be a  
laptop is not the same thing as either a netbook or a laptop.

It's basically a big iPhone without the phone  then it is a BIG  
iPod Touch... ;-)


An iPad plus the 3 iWork apps will cost $528.97 as well as being  
smaller, lighter and easier to use

Yes but it is necessary to add the price of keyboard dock accessory

But I think I love it...
But I can not say more as I have not tried...

Re: iPadding around?

René , I guess some might consider it a necessary accessory. I got to  
use a wacom touch screen a few years ago with built in computer screen  
and would lay it on my lap and found that using the keyboard was not  
as desirable or productive as  just popping up an onscreen keyboard.  
But I guess for some serious typing the keyboard might be helpful.


But as to Sarah's blog comment, I disagree with even thinking of this  
iPad thing as a 'working computer'. My iPhone is not a working  
computer, my other smart phones (7 of them) are not working computers.  
I can get a certain amount of 'productivity' out of all of these  
devices. Some of that productivity is very very useful and appropriate  
for the situation and device on hand. I wrote a 42 page scope of work  
on my iPhone up at camp but only because I did not have my laptop with  
me. And although I was on vacation it started raining for two days and  
so I decided to get some work done in the quiet solitude of camp. It  
would have been good to have had an iPad at the time but even better  
would have been my laptop. But if I planned beforehand to work up at  
camp I would not consider either my iPhone or an iPad but would pack  
up my laptop instead.

I think that for a working computer the keyboard accessory is  
necessary (not only accessory ;-)

To answer somewhat my own question.

I connected a USB gamepad and Rev didn't recognize it.

However Rev could recognize the gamepad when in the background I ran a
keyboard emulator for joysticks piece of  freeware called JoyToKey.

Nifty!

As for the USB dance pad, it is still being shipped so don't yet  
know about
it and Rev, but I'm pretty sure it too will work when using the  
emulator

freeware.

Cheers.
