I just found the on startup and on shutdown handlers. I have tried to clean
up my CD project by putting the initializers into these handlers. The docs say that is what they are for.
Has anyone used these that much? I don't think they load when the stack is launched
in the IDE. I think they only run in the final build.
Does anyone know for sure? I had to put the code in both the startup and preopen
stack handlers. In the preopenstack I put an 'if the environment is "development"
then do the same code as in the startup handler.
I have no experience with "startup" but i would say that "preopenstck" IS the best place to
initialize everything...
And "closestack" or "closestackrequest" or something the best place to cleanup things
before you leave...
Also related to this, I was reading the docs and they say if you want to keep a preference
set to load the variables into a custom property on shutdown and then reload the custom
prop into the variable on start up. I have not been successful in this in my CD. Also, I thought
from this list that the only way to save info was via a separate stack outside the build.
Seems a contradiction.
No, it isn't. Yes, it is! No, it isn't. Yes, it is! No, it isn't. Yes, it is! No, it isn't. Yes, it is! No, it isn't. Yes, it is!
Oh, c'mon this is not an argument, this is a contradiction... etc...
Monty Python... :-D
Contradiction or not, that's the way it works with "modern" OSs... ;-)
Has anyone done this? I need to test it in a simple stack.
