Tip #2 of the Day: Understanding R:Compiler Resources
Product.: R:BASE eXtreme 9.5 (32/64)
Build...: 9.5.3.21205 or higher www.rupdates.com
Keywords: R:Compiler, Additional Resources
Section.: R:Compiler
When embedding R:BASE Forms, Reports, and Labels as "Additional Resources",
the following will assist in your use of R:Compiler for R:BASE eXtreme 9.5:
01. Multiple objects can be selected in the R:BASE Database Explorer to copy
into your R:Compiler project. Use the [Shift+Arrow] keys or the [Ctrl]
key with the left mouse button to select more than one object.
02. Only [Ctrl+C] at the R:BASE Database Explorer can be used to send your
R:BASE resources to the clipboard for R:Compiler to recognize the objects.
03. Only one "type" of object can be added at a time. One or more forms must
be added separately than when adding reports or labels.
04. All listed resources can be cleared by using the "Clear Resources" button.
05. After adding Forms/Reports/Labels as resources, make a backup copy of the
database, delete those added resources from the database, and reload the
database to decrease the overall size and improve network speed.
06. If a resource has been removed from the database, and needs replaced for
editing, the item can be copied from the R:Compiler project to
the Database
Explorer. Use the "Copy to Clipboard" button in R:Compiler, and
then [Ctrl+V]
at the R:BASE Database Explorer window.
07. When choosing to "Update" an external form file, Plugin,
miscellaneous file,
R:Compiler will assume that the stored location for the file has
not changed.
08. In addition to the Additional Resources toolbar, a speed menu is also
available with a right click.
09. When running a compiled executable where a specific resource
resides in the
executable AND the actual database files, the resource which
resides in the
executable will be recognized first.
Have fun compiling and deploying R:Compiler applications for R:BASE
eXtreme 9.5.
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
