Re: SOAP Library

In fact, for the main SOAP service that I use, I made a library that I have a few apps using. It's also an https situation, and I had problems with frequent timeouts (see bug 3639), so I use curl for the actual http side of it, so using the SOAP library wouldn't have been an option anyway,

Hi David, I have one computer with just a standard OS X as bought, no developer tools installed and defaults help works fine in Terminal. To see if a command is installed, I guess you could put the shell command inside a try structure. Cheers, Sarah On 10/7/07, David Bovill [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Array union syntax: grumble or bug?

2007-10-07 Thread David Bovill
This one has bothered me for a while now - is there a good reason for these two rather strange behaviors of the union command for arrays: 1) union with an empty base array always result in empty instead of adding the new array 2) an array is empty even if it is not (null) and has stuff in it

Re: Array union syntax: grumble or bug?

Yes - the question is more should it be like this? Do other languages treat a union the same way? I think it is very counterintuitive and it slows down a common task of accumulating data in an array. ___ use-revolution mailing list
