Hi,
The project have been developed on Mac OS X, REALbasic 5.5.5 and works fine
there. Its target platform is Linux. I tried to use REALbasic 2006r1 on Linux
(the ones I have) without success. Here's the results of a different test:
I've made a simple test earlier this morning with Aurox:
Boot on the Live Aurox DVD,
Insert a Memory Stick with my REALbasic 5.5.5 and 2005r4 generated (from
Macintosh) application,
Try to run the REALbasic 2005r4 Pro X-Platform generated application... [the
application generated from the Mac OS X version/platform]
... and it runs!
Troubles:
a. I have to press two times the Arrow key to get a result; the relevant code
is:
// Two lines of code (before "Select Case Key"): removed
Select Case Key
Case Chr(28) // Left Arrow
// Code removed
Return True
Case Chr(29) // Right Arrow
// Code removed
Return True
Case Chr(30) // Top Arrow
// Code removed
Return True
Case Chr(31) // Bottom Arrow
// Code removed
Return True
End Select
There is no code after End Select; End Select is the last line of that window
KeyDown event.
b. Resized (shrink) images are not nice like on Mac OS X,
c. png file dropped from the Memory Stick is not displayed (that is a slax
screen shot)... (png is defined in the REALbasic project; as well as bmp, gif,
jpg, and tif. BTW: I didn't remember to define PICT ! <will do it right now>
Oh, and yes, png was defined as a filetype.
d. I get wrong encodings for "Date.LongDate"; here's the relevant code:
csDate = GetDate(imgFI.Name)
If csDate <> Nil Then
aPict.Graphics.DrawString "Image Date:", tab1X,PosY
aPict.Graphics.DrawString csDate.LongDate, tab2X,PosY
PosY = PosY + StepY // Compute the Y position for the next line
End If
You know, the strange characters in décembre (December in French).
I also get a coma where I didn't expect, just like in: lundi, 26 d√Ècembre, 2005
But that certainly came from the Aurox distribution
Nota: I didn't take time (I was in a hurry on a Sunday morning) to try the
REALbasic 5.5.5 generated application (same source; project originally developed
there).
Waooooo... It's a start. :) More to come this evening. ;) (?)
Cheers,
Emile
PS: FileType (in the project pane/REALbasic 200x) is far superior of what it was
in REALbasic 5.5.5 and <. One place to make the modification instead of n times
(potentially, else use a global string)...
FYI: I talked earlier about slax. slax is a small distribution based on
Slackware; it takes less than _OR_ 540MB of mass storage to run. So you can
install it on a MemoryStick or in a small hard disk (540MB) and boot from there
provided your hardware lets you boot on those mass storage devices.
