Re: Distributing Stacks

As an experiment I tried creating a new stack in LC and saving it as a standalone and that worked fine. So presumably my standalone problems are either the fact that my stack was created with an older format or something wrong with it's settings. That gives me something to look at at least.

Re: Distributing Stacks

[quote="richmond62"]Another thing you may not have thought about is whether you really need to protect your code. If you don't just build your standalones with the Community version.[/quote] I don't need to protect the code. What I used to do was just send the .rev file and the users had a copy of t...

Re: Distributing Stacks

[quote="richmond62"]One of the ways to sort out this problem might be to: 1. List what changes you have made in your stack since you started reworking it in 6.x. [/quote] It might come to that. Alas any system requiring me to remember what I have done is bound to fail eventually. If only there was a...

Re: Distributing Stacks

[quote="richmond62"]If you authored your original stack in RR 3.0 and have not altered anything when you opened it in 6.x just now NO functionality will be lost by saving it back into the 3.0 compatible format.

Distributing Stacks

Hi, I have a stack developed with Revolution 3.0 (for which I had some sort of commercial license). I hadn't looked at it for years but just had to do some maintenance so I downloaded LiveCode 6.6.2rc3 and everything worked fine (and it is much more stable than I remember Revolution being). My probl...

Re: Still have problem sending graphic to server

put URL("binfile:"&tSnapshotPath&"/" & field "StudentName" &the seconds & ".png") into URL ("ftp://MyLogonID:MyPassWord@ServerAddress.edu/TestFile.png/Library/WebServer/Documents/320EPSY2009/MapCollection") That URL looks dodgy - are you sure TestFile.png shouldn't appear at the end rather than the...

Enumerating the contents of a group

Hi, I have a group containing a number of check boxes. I would like to get a list of all those selected without having to hard code a list of the field names in my script. I was hoping for something along the lines of: get the members of group "foo" returning an array of each object in the group. I ...

I haven't used StackRunner before but I just downloaded it. It doesn't look like in includes any DB drvers at all. Copying the folder "Revolution Player.app/Contents/Externals/Database Drivers/dbpostgresql.bundle" to "StackRunner.app/Contents/MacOS/Externals/Database Drivers" works for me though. No...

I find that I can't print too many pages in the one print job or Revolution crashes. Perhaps there is a maximum size for a print job and your image tips it over the edge? Have you tried ritning with a smaller image? I have also found that "open printing" brings up the print dialog box even if "with ...

I think what your asking for is something like this: put revQueryDatabase(dbid, sql) into results_set if results_set is not an integer then -- query failed if the number of items in results_set is 2 then -- results is probably revdberr,blah put item 2 of results_set into results_set end if warning "...

You can set the width by setting the tab stops. You can do this from within the object inspector.

It's a bug in Revolution - see my earlier post in this forum. Using the terminal go into Externals/Database Drivers/dbpostgresql.bundle/Contents/MacOS and make sure the file in there is called dbpostges and not dbpostgresql. My experiements lead me to beleive that the :1, :2 syntax don't always work...
