Richard,

best way is not to generate the standalone and use the single file stackfile, this way a simple GO STACK URL will do... if you must generate a standalone, then zip it beforehand, then transfer, create a routine that will unzip it and load, but that sucks because you'll end up with duplicate memory use for engine since (it's two standalones in memory), and the file will be bigger... and will not be cross platform, using the plain rev file is better as it works everywhere and loads faster.

I'm having difficulty downloading a Rev application from our server. After trying the standard "put url" and LibURLDowloadToFile commands, and not having those work, I've come to the conclusion the problem is probably with the structure of a Rev-created application (in that it's a package.... not just one file). Apparently, those commands just can't grab the package.

I then thought about compressing the Rev app first using the compress() commands, but "compress" doesn't seem to want to grab the entire package either. So I'm stuck.

I could use Stuffit to compress the file on the server, but I would need to unstuff it on the local side "on the fly" from within a running Rev application... and that would appear to be a tricky issue.

Suggestions?

Basically, a Rev application on the local side needs to download a Rev application from our server and then launch it locally. What's the best way to do that?

Thanks.
