Re: 4D Default Folder Structure

[Jörg Knebel via 4D_Tech]

Keith,

I don’t mind getting a “RTFM-answer” as long as a pointer tells me what manual 
to look in.

If there is a NEW manual with super duper search function than I don’t know 
about it and I can’t login in my 4D account.

On the other hand the “RTFM-answer” is the most brilliant generic answer one 
can give nowadays. :o))

Cheers
Jörg

Re: 4D Default Folder Structure

[Keith Goebel via 4D_Tech]

Jörg, I am disappointed to see disharmony on the 4D list.
As far as I can tell, Jody was trying to help by advising the new 4D manual has 
a good description of the workings of the default folder.
There have been times I read the docs thoroughly without finding out what I 
needed, but overlooked checking for it in the latest docs while upgrading to a 
new 4D version.
Why are you upset with Jody?
Cheers, Keith

Never did I! 

So, you win again!

[Jody Bevan via 4D_Tech]

You obviously have a problem. I will humor you and ensure to not post here ever 
again. That of course should please you. Only your thoughts are important and 
worthy of this bandwidth. 

Going all the way back to the 4D days on Compuserve I have never seen someone 
be so rude to another 4D developer.

Amazing. You win first prize.

Re: 4D Default Folder Structure

[Jody Bevan via 4D_Tech]

Jorg. 

So what dis I do to you that you want to take pot shots. Makes you look rather 
petty.

My point was to congratulate 4D on an excellent section of their documentation. 

I do not always do that.

Yet you want to make a petty comment. Grow up!

Re: 4D Default Folder Structure

[Jody Bevan via 4D_Tech]

Not at my computer so no answer now. If I was I would just copy the description 
on this in the new manual from 4D. Best description in 30 years on this topic.

4D Default Folder Structure

[Jörg Knebel via 4D_Tech]

G’day All,

How does the default folder structure has to look like in Binary and Project 
mode?

Where are the DEFAULT locations of the data-file, the PlugIns-folder and the 
Component-Folder?

What about the Active4D-Folders, in case Active4D is used?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers
Jörg

Re: 4D scanning

[Claudio Braga via 4D_Tech]

Hi, 

On Mac you can use scanline https://github.com/klep/scanline 


It is a cli util so with some launch external process calls you can drive it

i.e.

To get the list of available scanners 

$command:="/usr/local/bin/scanline -list -browsesecs 1 "
$std_in:=""
$std_out:=""
$error:=""
LAUNCH EXTERNAL PROCESS($command;$std_in;$std_out;$error)


To actually do a scan

//vSCANDOCS_scanner is the name of the scanner found with the -browsesecs option

$command:="/usr/local/bin/scanline -scanner \""+vSCANDOCS_scanner   
$command:=$command+"\" -a4 -flatbed -dir \""+Convert path system to 
POSIX($folder)+"\" -name "+$filename_for_scan
$std_in:=""
$std_out:=""
$error:=""
LAUNCH EXTERNAL PROCESS($command;$std_in;$std_out;$error)


So far I’ve been using it up to OS X 10.14, I’m in the process of testing it on 
Catalina, we’ll see

HIH
