Hi Guys,
I've put my feature request here:
http://www.realsoftware.com/feedback/viewreport.php?reportid=zzipbadh
Is there other ones we could sign up to?
My ideas for it are far smaller than enterprise applications. I'm thinking
simply for my case here, we develope educational software and have many
developers working at once. It would be great if each exercise could be
compiled as a tiny 20k file, because really that's all it needs to be, and
that way if there are any additions or mathematically say there are
alternative methods found of teaching this exercise, we don't need to
update a 5mb file. It would also allow me to have a system that could
constantly check for revisions of exercises online and cache them from the
web onto disk.
Because we serve the school market we constantly get feedback from
teachers about the way our exercises are structured and different
methodologies, I'd like to be able to be more responsive without users
having to make 5mb updates every week.
Thanks,
Deane Venske

Modular applications is a feature that has been requested every once in

It is basically the ability to create scalable Enterprise Applications.

I like the idea of modular aplications it helps to make upgrades easy,
reuse of code and lot of stuff, but I only hear about Cocoa here wich
means Mac only, what about Windows and Linux, it should point that way
too.
I join this idea I hope RealSoft folks have this in mind I thing there
is a feature request about this, please to the person that posted it
refer us the URL so all of us can vote for it.

OK, got the point ;-)
Yes, this would be very interesting and I would join.
But: Would this be possible? Once the RB compiled an app, there are
most likely no longer symbols of the framework inside, since - I
suppose -
all symbols get resolved and replaced during compile time.
I'd like a solution, which soft links all framework code. Don't know,
if
this would slow down each app. But using this schema, RB could generate
pure executable file without the entire framework. Once you start the
app
the first time, the app could check for its framework and - if not
found -
start downloading its framework version - once for all RB apps, which
use the same one.
Well, just an idea.
Once RB switched fully to Cocoa, the system might probably move in this
direction.
BTW:
While I still didn't upgrade to
RB 2K5 or 2K6, I just ordered VS 2005 Standard, since I'll like to
evaluate
the Windows Mobile 5.0 platform. It is really impressive, how small
.Net apps
are and that you can deploy your .Net apps using ClickOnce on a
webserver.
Dummy sample ClickOnce app: http://www.turingart.com/downloads/
sbrowser/sbrowser.htm
Moreover, .Net maintains each different version of an app fully
individual.
Thus, if you installed an app using ClickOnce and auto-updates at a
later point
of time, .Net maintains copies of version A and version B. Thus, at
each moment
of time, you might roll back from version B to version A. Nice.

That sounds like it would work nicely Stephan, but we still have the
problem that every console app would contain the RB Framework and
thus be rather large. I know the GUI framework is probably the
biggest bit of any system, but it's still going to be a lot of
overhead.
Does anyone else feel that this would be a nice feature request? I'm
thinking of wording it like this:
FEATURE REQUEST-->
Would like the ability to compile a project without the RB framework
that could then be called from within a project that does contain
the RB framework along with any plugin code needed by the smaller
frameworkless builds.
