Re: Database error?

I freeze up with this stuff, just like I do with math. But...but...won't an intruder be likely to send their own queries, regardless of how the app is doing it? If they include raw values, the database will still respond, right? So why would it matter how the app is doing it? On 4/10/2015 8:36

Lest anyone else go mad

I wasted an afternoon going crazy, so to spare anyone else the pain: If you do not include an (unspecified) number of icons when building an iOS app, the app will not install. If you try it with my AirLaunch utility via Dropbox, Dropbox will ask if you want to install, try to install, and then

no stack revMenuBar in standalones?

My standalones are choking on the line set the defaultMenuBar to the long id of grp "revMenuBar" of stack "revMenubar" A check found that exists() denies that there is any such objects. Is this one of those stacks that gets loaded late, or is there some ohter equivalent? Do I need to copy th

The MySQL DB option in revOpenDatabase supports SSL encryption. This will work if: 1) SSL is enabled on the MySQL server. 2) The servers firewall opens the appropriate ports. 3) SSL certificate is installed on the server. 4) revOpenDatabase SSL parameter is "true". 5) Encryption externals are chec

Re: Database error?

I'm kinda curious about this too. I assume the major risk is being subject to SQL injection attacks but I'm under the impression that if you use the variable name option in the rev database functions instead of including data values in an SQL statement, you're protected against injection attacks.

Re: Database error?

You're welcome. Yeah, the docs don't make it very clear that once you create a database, you assign a user with a password to the database. This is what you use in the connection string, since A) that it's not a good idea to use your root password & B) use the same username and password on each
