Re: Latest video -- integration of AI into script editor
Hi all and Steven, I had pledged a few days ago to "Xavi Business 1 year" (499$) and now try to extend it to "Xavi Business 2 Years" (999$).

Compiling SQLite to JavaScript and running it locally in the browser is not a great option - how will you reliably persist the data and keep decent performance? Not that there aren't JavaScript based DB solutions that use local file storage. Actually, all I need is the in-memory db, and for a fairly small database at that. Performancewise, however, I need that data locally. Changing one item can result in the need to reference dozens of others to recalculate, its dependent values. Sadly the web standards folks messed up here. Web SQL was effectively killed because Mozilla and Microsoft refused to implement it. IndexedDB looks like the option that everyone eventually agreed on but it's not implemented everywhere yet. I suspect it will be fairly widespread by the time the HTML5 deployment option is complete though... I don't need any *particular* database, but I do need to be able to use revDataFromQuery(). I initially implented value storage with my getVal() and setVal() to use an array, but there are too many different ways I access particular data types; to use anything other than a (light) database means custom loops through everything for each type of WHERE that I use. If there were an array type that could access the same data from different independent indices, that *could* work, but I think we'd call that array a database :) As things get set and calculated and changed, a db row gives me a nice way to access by any of these. Without it, I'd have to manually set everything in additional arrays just to keep track of things, which is an army of bugs waiting to be sprayed . . . Also, my db need is *very* simple. I use a few UNION just to turn things into a single access, and some compound WHERE, but no JOIN, related tables, and whatnot. -- Dr. Richard E. Hawkins, Esq.

Dictionnaries exist to clearly define the meaning of a word or phrase in another language.

If we can try and forget the environment of our computer translation (files, folders, disk drives, et tutti quanti), we can try to home in on best best translation available for a specific language. The French language (to my knowledge) lacks the precise equivalent of the English into (which means from the outside of ... to the inside of ...). So may we fall into the trap of personal interpretation ! The French a denotes location only, but gives little information concerning the direction, and even less about the subtleties of inside or outside. I find it to be the worst possible translation. The French dans means in or at best inside, and has no implication of the 'into I show above. However, I find it a better solution than a. The French sur implies lying on top of and certainly does not imply inside. Much depends on the personal interpretation. As a long-standing nit-picker I would never use this. The French vers means in the direction of, which I find to be acceptable in the translation you request, because it simply skips over the notion inside, (but nevertheless implies it (The idea of copying a file to the outside of a folder would be nonsense !).

Re: [OT] Excessive Wireless Traffic from iPhone running iOS5
BigBrother is watching you! Your IPhone is sending to Apple the localisation data recorded by your phone the previous days. This happens only when you have WIFI access. Jacques Clavel 2011/11/3 Pete p...@mollysrevenge.com A couple of weeks ago, I noticed an occasional huge slowdown in internet access from home. Whenever this occurred, it was obvious from the lights on my wireless router that a huge amount of wireless traffic was happening. In true old-fashioned trouble shooting mode, I tried to figure out what might have changed in any computer setups in my home. The only thing that I could come up with was that my wife upgraded her iPhone to ios5 round about the time this started happening. From the circumstances, I believe this is happening when the iPhone is syncing wirelessly with iTunes on my wife's Mac laptop. That only happens over WiFi and when the phone is charging, both of which are the case when this wireless traffic problem occurs. I verified this by switching off WiFi on the iuPhone last time this happened and sure enough, the wireless traffic stopped. Have any of you iPhone users experienced anything similar to this? Obviously there has to be WiFi traffic for the iPhone to sync, but there isn't that much data on my wife's iPhone so I'm not understanding the extreme wireless activity. Meantime my Android phone has been wireless syncing perfectly for months.

Re: Password protecting a stack in the distribution
Same problem here trying to encrypt my library (to be used on on-Rev server). Livecode 4,6,3 on Mac (4,6,4 not tested now). My problem is now solved (see second try) but the workflow is not straightforward. First try (does'nt work: - Main stack (splash screen) and my library (start using as it does). - standalone app settings: - main stack: encrypt with password - add stack file: my library, encrypt with password - Result: no encryption of my library (found in the pack - contents/MacOs/myLib.livecode Second try (was successful): - Main stack and myLib as substack - standalone app settings: - main stack: - check move substack into individual stackfiles - create folder for this stack (jc) - encrypt with password (for both main stack and myLib) - Result: nin the folder found in the pack - contents/MacOs/jc there is a file myLib.rev (rev???) which is encrypted (to verify: open myLib.rev with TextEdit, or open a script in Livecode). Why is it so tortuous to only encrypt a library? Jacques 2011/9/11 Andrew Henshaw hens...@me.com Hi, Im wondering if anyone can shed some light on the best way to do this! I have built a library stack which Im including in the distribution and selected the 'encrypt with password' option for both the main stack, and this library stack, however when I compile if I go into the package the .rev file is there with clear text contents, totally readable. Ive also tried using the set the password of this stack to mypassword and then saved the stack and re-loaded it and that does encrypt the original stack and ask for a password before I can edit it, but for some reason when I compile again the stack is put into the distribution in clear text again. Any ideas or other ways of doing this?

Re: [Server] create stack trouble
I agree, Pierre, Nice job from RunRev guys. Now the On-Rev client has to be updated, and all will be perfect. Jacques 2011/8/9 Pierre Sahores s...@sahores-conseil.com Hi Björnke, The main goal of using the server's stack component is to let us store our code as password protected libraries instead of storing it in unprotected flat text .irev components. This server's stack component is useful each time we need to install our LC-server solutions on clients servers on a license basis contract. In this sense, the server's stack component fits all the n-tier development expectable needs and, from my point of view at least, RunRev did a 100% perfect work in realizing it. We are now able to deliver our solutions in the same ways Java or Zend developers are doing with their own protected libs. I have to add that this new component works 100% fine in any situation my apps needs to address and that RunRev need to be warmly thanks for all the great opportunities that we become able to cover in using it. More : on Posix platforms at least, our .lc+.livecode driven server's apps are running in multi-thread mode under the control of the underlying OS + Apache CGI gateway components. As we would say there in southern Europe : C'est la totale ! More2 : n-tier development need to be designed with different eyes we use to develop desktop apps (and relevant stack's components). LC has yet become a perfect development platform in both worlds and we just have to choose the right ways to go to get the job done. ;D Le 9 août 2011 à 15:47, Björnke von Gierke a écrit : As someone said why use stacks when you could save your things into text files.

Re: Any way to show progress while an ON-REV page is processing a script?
Bruce, For a similar application I'm using HttpRequest (JavaScript) in a loop to send as many requests as lines to process. JavaScript handles the responses and and fill the list in the browser, no need of progress bar. http://www.w3schools.com/dom/dom_httprequest.asp Jacques 2011/8/8 Bruce Pokras bruc...@comcast.net Mike, Thanks for your reply. The input page has a form into which a user types or pastes a list of patents. Upon clicking Submit the form POSTS the list to the .lc page for processing. For each patent in the list, the script of the .ic page sends a query to a European Patent Office server. The script then formats the response from the server for each patent as a row in a table. At the end of the processing the table is displayed. For a long list of patents this could take a while. So I am looking for some way for the .lc page to display the progress of its going through the list. Regards, Bruce On Aug 6, 2011, at 1:58 PM, Michael Kann wrote: Bruce, I'm working on something similar. When you write that you have a list of patent numbers processed by a .lc or .irev page do you mean that you are going out to fetch the patents each time, or will all the data be on your server? The reason I ask is if the data is on your server it might be better to attack the user delay in your code, rather than work on a progress bar. For example, I'm presenting 993 titles of videos; all in a similar format, but the whole list is different each time. When I started out it took about 6 seconds from button click to the list appearing. After setting up a poor man's index and retooling a few loops I've gotten the return trip down to about 50 milliseconds -- good enough for government work.
