Re::Anybody have any examples of reading the Windows Registry
Jon I can't give you the path to your USB info in the registry as this a user/type/vendor/keys/params/format dependent path/info. However, if you type windows registry in your search engine, you'll find more than anyone can swallow! Dont be scared... look for the links pointing to either technet or support.microsoft.com where they provide ample information on all the hierarchies you need to know. for example: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/256986/EN-US/ Also if you type Regedit in the run... of your start menu, you can browse it easily like a file explorer. BEWARE of changing stuff in the registry you can really bust the OS if not done carefully... cheers Xavier [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 17/02/2006 09:35:24: Thanks, You wouldnt happen to have any examples of windows registry calls, I am a mac guy buy defenition so know little about the paths that I am trying to call...All I know in this last minute issue is that I have to verify a USB keys serial number on windows, and the way I have been asked to do it is by calling the windows registry...being that I want to get back to Java and my Mac, I thought I would see if I could pilfer some good ol Rev code, rather than learn the dirty little secrets of windows...

Re: Stack structure, media and memory?
Hi Ken, Hi all I'm seeking advice on stack structure, for a template for a presentation-type standalone. I'm using R2.7 trial. The (proposed) app will have a main menu, but I'd like a separate navigation menu, maybe a stack menu with a series of pulldown menu buttons for navigation (Section 1, page x... etc). Content will be contained in other stacks (or substacks?). Each stack card will need to load a large image or a movie (from external directory), and there would be lots of cards. The cards will also contain text, buttons, drawn objects, animations etc. Text and vector graphics would be done in Rev. However, I can't find info on what exactly happens to loaded media when a card (or substack) is closed, in terms of memory purging. I've had other stand alone media-heavy apps hang because of memory overload so it's an issue for me. All media on a card or in a stack are only loaded when needed and unloaded when you leave the card they were on. This is because the alwaysbuffer of players and images is set to false by default. And the bufferhiddenimages is also set to false by default. Check the documentation for an exact definition of these properties. The Rev pdf manual says If one stack in a stack file is loaded into memory, so are any other stacks in the same stack file. You cannot load one stack in a stack file without loading all the rest at the same time even if you open only one of the stacks. Questions (these refer to the behaviour of a standalone app): 1. Am I right to interpret the above quote to mean a stack file includes any substacks, and these are all are loaded when the main stack is ? Yes. 2. It isn't possible to purge a substack from memory using destroyStack, even if the substack is closed and another opened ? Yes (but I am not 100% sure) it is not possible. This is only possible with separate stacks (files). 3. So, to purge a stack from memory when it's closed, I would need to use separate main stacks for each section ? Yes. 4. So, if it is necessary to use a series of separate stacks, these will not be bundled together into a single file when the standalone is built? Exactly. Hope that helps :-) Ken Regards Klaus Major [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.major-k.de ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Re: Is SMIL still alive?
Hi Tom, I've been looking into smil file format recently, but 1. most things on the net look a little dated. I am afraid it will go the way of many good solutions/technologies: Falling into oblivion. 2. QuickTime doesn't seem to like smil files. I just tested some of the SMIL files iI created with my mkLibSMIL1 and they still work with the QT Player and Rev players. But please remember that QT only supports a (small) subset of the SMIL specification. 3. Firefox dosen't seem to like smil pages Sorry, never tested SMIL in browsers. But I think that SMIL files are only supported by some plug-ins and not the browser itself.(?) Is this format losing support?

So if your mouseUp depended on anything that be set by mouseDown, Klaus's idea is probably better. Also, manual clicking will ensure that the stack with the button is the defaultstack and possibly the topstack. Depending on what action your mouseUp handler takes, could that be a factor?

Re: File sharing, locking, etc... between multiple users...
The way I am setting it up, the user will always know who has locked out the task file - it tells you when you open it, in a field in the upper left of the task viewer card. I intend to include instant messaging, either as a substack of Task Mage or as a separate stack in Work Mage. That way, a user who wants access can instant message the person who has it locked and tell the to get out. Which is not perfect. Your idea about stacking data chatroom style is a good one, I will give it some thought. A given task file, in task mage, is way more complicated than a simple field, so it might not be practical - but it bears thinking about.

Once the cat was out of the bag there was no need for anyone to go to the site again. It could be argued that he should be praised for his selfless actions and RunRev chastised for their unsafe site! David, I have full regard for the value of your posts on other topics but what you have above is about the most specious argument for anything that I have ever seen on this site. It was supposed to be specious - well more tongue in cheek really. It was supposed to be on par with the posts condemning Richmond for his actions, which I found specious but rather than be rude or make personal attacks thought it better form to show the other side of the coin in a similar manner. Your later paragraphs, about the list to which the material might have been posted and possible consequences thereof, are pure sophistry. You've lost me there! I was trying to find out what the actual crime was! As far as I can see it can only be one of the following: 1. Posting to the RunRev List. 2. Posting to *any* list or Newsgroup. My point was the given that the information was posted in the first place, then out of the two options above, option 1 was the safest/ best for RunRev and for RunRev developers. I could actually understand RunRev's position more if option 2 had been taken. Runtime owns this particular list and may include or exclude any person on their own cognizance and in their own commercial interests. I fully agree that they have the right to include or exclude anyone. It just depends on what is trying to be achieved as to how effective an exclusion would be. It is next to impossible to police a mailing. One reason for excluding someone would be to try to stop the excluded person from posting in a manner similar to the post they were excluded for in the first place. This is impossible to achieve unless EVERY message from EVERY subscriber is moderated - a very time consuming and therefore expensive business. Another reason would be to punish the person and stop them getting help from the list. This seems pointless in this case (except that it might make the person doing the excluding feel better for a little while and cause the person being excluded some slight hassle), since stopping someone getting help is likely to hurt the RunRev too. In any case, even if every message is moderated it would be ineffective as a punishment , since, they can just sign up (or have already signed up) under a different name and email address. Over many years, I have found them to walk a pretty good line, with tolerance, humour and only the occasional fit of pique :-). I agree it's one of the better lists I have participated in. I guess I just believe in free speech and fairness and since I was a bit peeved at being treated poorly by RunRev, thought that the act of putting Richmond in the naughty-corner a bit over the top. On reflection, the people at RunRev were probably frazzled by the problems they had in getting the site up and running and took it out on the first person that seemed to compound their problems. Should we infer from your last line that you like to have the last word? I promise not to write on the topic again, so here you go: Would have been ended! I suppose I am like most people. Sometimes I like to have the last word and sometimes I don't mind if someone else has it! In this case it just depends on what I am doing when the message arrives. At the moment I am running a time consuming stack that is (hopefully!) creating a 200,000+ record database for me and so have some time to spare. Looking at the my record counter, I'm up to 199,000 already, (time flies furiously!) and so back to work!

So, clearly, he is respecting RunRev's wish to keep his posts moderated. This would indicate that it is not his intention to be disruptive.

I've compiled my application on Windows and I've moved it to Linux. I get the following error when I try to access the Sqlite database with my application on Linux: Failed to load dbsqlite.so error dbsqlite.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryfound /root/Linux/externals/database_drivers/dbsqlite.so symbols 7134656,7134544,7134624 called idcounterptrx12.db #65533;#65533;#65533;ph'l#65533;F#549;#65533;* I've tried it on Fedora Core 4, RedHat 7.3 and 8.0. All with the same error. I've set the permissions to 777 for the file and I've tripple checked that the file is there and in that directory. It's creating a file called c:/test.db on my hard drive which I'm sure the .so is creating. I emailed Altuit yesterday but I havn't heard back from them. Is anyone else using the Altuit .so on Linux that has seen this problem before. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: File sharing, locking, etc... between multiple users...
Thanks for the note. Very glad that my ramblings might have triggered something valuable for you. Something more. Those not interested.. . stop reading now. You won't miss a thing :-) As you may have realized by now, I tried to use some of the HCard ways of handling stacks to think about work flow organization where each part of the process becomes an object that only deals with its children and next level parent(s). Children know how to locate their parent(s) at any moment, therefore when the parent changes, the child can reference that change and respond accordingly. In the work flow sense, a child is actually the individual worker executing a step in the work flow, so there can be two workers each using their own child to update to the same parent or group of parents. These parents can be at the same level, each having a different function. An example would be a staff meeting event. Work flow would include scheduling, updating, building the agenda, sending notices to attendees and other parties, inviting comments, publishing the list of attendees, post-meeting minutes, notification of interested parties, archiving for future reference, scheduling follow-up. All of these parts could be a parent and the child would be the particular staff meeting on Thur at 9 am [metaphor would be a card in a 'scheduled event stack]. It would know that it needed to report to the parent that handled any scheduling, the one that handled invitations, the one that handled archiving of company information, etc. In this scheme, ...the child would ask each parent Are there any updates to me (running on Rebecca's computer [metaphor would be a card on her computer that would show the data from the card in the 'scheduled event stack')? ...the child would say Here is the revised list of attendees for your consideration, from me (running on Mark's computer), which submits the new data to the parent for updating and availability to any object that requests/requires it. Basically , you have a lot of 'landing zones' for data that is handled by one-or-more parents. Here the child does not know or care what the parent does with the new data. Time and date stamping is essential. I would encourage designing, building, and embedding an audit trail now to help with the debugging and design. It is an invaluable tool. Hypercard of course.

Re: File sharing, locking, etc... between multiple users...
Hello again, That is useful stuff to consider. At some point, I am going to create an app called Manager Mage, or some such thing, - that will be used for coordinating the efforts of each individual. Task Mage approaches this from a very different perspective. It is from the point of view of the stream of consciousness of the person sitting at his desk, working on multiple projects. Date oriented to-do list programs just suck, because not all tasks can be assigned to a date or time. Most tasks, in my experience, are on-going. So, task mage uses task files that do not have a particular date or time attached to them. Each task file has its own sub-to-do list, and any item in a sub-to-do list can be assigned to the calendar as needed, but it doesn't have to be. So, from the users perspective, when he is on the front page of task mage, he has a to do list on the right side of the screen that automatically organizes his tasks into whatever categories and sub-categories he sets up for himself. The left side of the screen contains a table that is used as a schedule for the current day, that he can use his today schedule or not as he wishes. All he has to do is drag items from his to-do list to his schedule. Each item in his to-do list contains a link to that task file. So, when he is working on a task, he can just click the link for that task, go to the task, make whatever changes to his notes, status, sub-to-do list, etc... that he needs to make, then go back to the front page to see what he needs to work on next. He can also add new tasks very quickly. The idea is to be able to switch between tasks, make changes, and go back to what you were doing so quickly that the yours short-term memory has not dropped the details of what your were working on at that moment. This allows for efficient multi-tasking. In general, multitasking is very ineffecient, as has been shown by multiple studies, because it takes considerable mental effort and time to orient on a task, then re-orient on what you working on before you switched. Task Mage eliminates that problem. And I know it works, because I use it all day long at work, and it makes me way more efficient, and with using it I almost never forget about tasks. Manager coordination is a whole other perspective - one that will require a different app that integrates with Task Mage. Gonna take me forever to finish this project.

Hi, It's the same PDF file, I have just created a separate index file that can be used in conjunction with the PDF you download yourself. You double-click on a file called RRIndex.pdx and it allows you to enter words or phrases and when you hit search it gives a list of the lines where this appears in the PDF file. Double-clicking on one of these lines will open the PDF document at the line where it appear. I have only tried this on Mac OS X, not sure if it will work on other platforms.

Documentation is always a work in process. But the 2.7 doc has a table of contents that lists chapters which do not exist. Would be nice to have something like known problems. How could anyone tell if these chapters were supposed to be in the current edition or not. Other than this list, how can anyone tell if problems such as these have already been reported - the email address listed in the preface doesn't help see other reports. Chapter 9 would seem to be particularly relevant in that it proposed to describe the file paths which have changed in the new version.

Advice? Purchasing Quandary...
Here's the issue: The semester started a week or so ago. Unfortunately, this coincides with the new Rev release in which (a) DC is no more but there is Media (which won't be out for a few more weeks) and (b) the file format in 2.7 has changed, meaning that even if my students purchase DC, anything they've worked on using the 30 day trial (while waiting for purchasing to go through) will be unusable by the time they get their DC license. If they purchase Media, I don't really know when they'll get it, but at least it will be in the 2.7 file format. OTOH, as I had already quoted them the DC price, I'll have to eat the $70 difference (between a DC 10-pack and 10 individual Media licences). Yikes Any recommendations?

Path problem in RevGOURL + How to find current directory path
Hello, I want to launch html file which is present in the current directory ( from where the exe runs) But the syntax like this does not work. revGoURL file:///index.htm Perhaps the RevGOUrl requires complete path of the file. Do you know how can we find out what is the current direcory path in rev?? So that I can use revGoUrl file:/// curPath /index.htm Please let me know if you have any ideas.

Re: [HUMOUR?] Re: Custom image library 2.6 - 2.7
yeah, Had the same feelings. I really despise that My terminology myself. Total lemming-words, like Win this and Win that. It's Microsoft-Speak and I, a card-holdling, pry-from-my-cold-dead-fingers Mac diehard, have a bit of hesitation typing those words. And now, it's etched in stone in the code forever. Kinda like the RFC misspellings: So what if somebody (probably Tim Berners-Lee, who wrote the original HTTP spec) was a better engineer than speller? Yes, the correct spelling is referrer, but the term referer is embedded into the code of millions of browsers and servers and it's too late to change now. J.

Re: Stack structure, media and memory?
Ken Apthorpe wrote: However, I can't find info on what exactly happens to loaded media when a card (or substack) is closed, in terms of memory purging. I've had other stand alone media-heavy apps hang because of memory overload so it's an issue for me. This is never an issue in Revolution. Memory is handled automatically. When a card is closed, the memory its media used is recycled. It also makes excellent use of virtual memory as necessary. You don't even have to think about it. All you really need to know is that you'll need enough RAM initially to load the entire stackfile (about as much as the file size of your stack on disk; this includes the substacks in the file, of course.) That is the advantage to using external media files, rather than embedding them into the stack. A referenced media file will be unloaded when it is no longer needed, and it doesn't count as part of the stack size when the stack is opened in RAM. Movie files, audio files, and other large media files should, in general, always be referenced from disk. You won't have to worry about memory if you do that. If you want to worry about it anyway, you can always just set the filename of the player in question to empty. That removes all the media content and clears memory. But you really don't have to do that. If you are replacing one movie in a player with another (by changing the player's filename reference) then memory is swapped as needed. The old file is dumped and the new media is loaded. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | [EMAIL PROTECTED] HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Disabled files in 2.7 - Followup
Yesterday I noted that opening some 2.6.1 stacks in 2.7 made it impossible for 2.7 to recognize them again after they were closed. They appeared grayed out from the Open menu. The only way that 2.7 would open them was through the Recent Files menu. This is a problem with a standalone - that doesn't have a recent files menu. Richard wisely suggested remaking a new standalone in 2.7 because that should correspond with the new file format. I have done so. (By the way the standalone builder has improved significantly over the years - seems to still have a bug applying the selected icon to the new app - and wants to cut off 22 pixels on OS X - but is certainly usable.) The new standalone had the same problem. The new app will not open any stack previously opened by 2.7 I dusted off ResEdit and discovered the following: The original 2.6.1 Type and Creator are RSTK and Revo After opening a stack in 2.7 the Type and Creator are converted to STK and MacO Is anyone having (or not having) a problem opening stacks saved in 2.7 - without using the Recent Files menu?

Standalones, externals, file paths in 2.7
Hi, I decided to make the leap to 2.7 and have found it a little depressing. Thanks to Jacqueline for the answer on the image library 2.6 -- 2.7, but I'm curious as to how in the world I was going to figure that out? Why didn't the installer just move or copy the library to its new home? On a similar note: I'm using OS X to build standalones for Mac and Win32. I use a small splash screen stack as the app as recommended by many. I've been really careful to handle all the nuances/differences in x-platform filepath structure in scripts, and the process has been working for months through countless new builds. Now, first, when I save as standalone for Win32 under 2.7, out of nowhere comes an Externals folder in the same directory as the exe. It's empty, but...I do use the altBrowser plugin and have carefully assigned the location of its externals in another location. When I launch the exe, the splash screen shows and then fails to go anywhere. Two possible problems, I think: first, there is a change in the methodology used to construct filepaths for Win in 2.7, or...this Externals folder wants to house altBrowser and that is somehow causing a problem. Any thoughts? I do not develop on Win so I'm a little stuck. Can someone point me in the direction of any documentation on changes in the standalone settings or file path construction? I'm a little frazzled with my app breaking at this point!
