Hi all,
Application design rather REALbasic usage (quoi que...)
I have a multimedia application where I have a selector that is
created dynamically. I rely on the Window Activate Event to re-
build the selector contents (actually a ListBox).
I just saw a simple code miss (two lines were missing) and I added
them. Now while I was testing that (moving a multimedia container
folder from the "root" folder to a different one), I realized that,
without quitting the application, I can also move a folder away -
and its entry will still be in the selector - and I have a possible
flaw; maybe a bug | needs more tests - .
So the question is:
how can I be sure the user does not tricks my application ?
[moves a folder on my back?]

Make your program foolproof, and the universe will make a better fool.
Seriously though, it's really Defensive Programing 101 -- anything
that the user can change, someone will. Expect it and have a plan to
handle the situation.
