Hello,
didn't found the answer in the archives, though it seems to be very
standard.
1. How to test If I have write permissions on a dir?
Is the appropriate approach to try to write a file on the wanted dir and if
it fails I know I can't? Or is there a Rev function to ask?
2. How can I detect,

I've never made software that anyone else had to use so I never noticed how
many things are missing in RunRev.
1. There is an excellent menu builder.
2. There is no preference file builder. This should call a sqlite plist file
or something for your program so it can load the information necessary
I think you should file an Enhancement Request for this. I would if I
had the time. This is the second gotcha I hit since I started this
project.
I think the thing that hit me on this was the antialiased property. So
maybe a custom function might do the trick.

Hi William,
Economy-x-Talk does all the things you mention for clients. I think
there are more people on this list who have already invented their own
systems to save preferecnes, make installers, get the versioning right
etc.
I don't expect RunRev Ltd to create a general-purpose
Why would there be a separate installer maker? If you have enterprise you
already can make compiled versions for each platform. Is the installer maker
something which has these missing features? That sounds interesting...
I will check out Economy-x-Talk - and if I could afford you or anyone
William, have a look at Trevor Devore's GLX application framework:
http://www.bluemangolearning.com/developer/revolution/
It's pobably not even close to possible for RunRev themselves to
implement every single thing that is commonly used by developers, but
happily, developers have a habit
William,
RR isn't the only RAD/IDE that does not do or provide these functions.
RR is a general purpose development environment, and none of the ones
I use include such niceties. However, there are numerous add-ons that
people have developed. If one of these does not meet your needs, you
have
I'm glad I made this post as it looks like the Blue Mango development
framework is the answer. It looks like the solution which any developer
would need.

Hiya,

Should cater for part of that at least. Nice bonus is the cgi script.
For versioning I'd go for Magic carpet if you don't want to roll your

Absolutely agree, I think Trevor's framework is one of the major
developments in the RR world for 2008. Thanks again Trevor!

Kind of. I am an experienced HC author, trying this rev thing out.
Spent an hour learning that the message box is married to the stack it
was opened with.
If I create a stack and fool around with the msg box, then go to
another stack, all my efforts to do simple tasks fail. Why?

About the message box, try playing with the multiline variation. Then
you can start trying tests with a few lines of code, and that can
have enough advantages over a one line
Hi Craig,
Welcome to the list. I'm sure you'll see a lot of familiar faces here
and will quickly feel at home.
The problem with the message box is well-known to me. It is a bug,
which sometimes occurs and sometimes stays away. I hope it will get

Hi Craig,
Possibly you may remember me from MY HC days.
Regarding your problem: My solution, something I've done a jillion
times, is to just create my own msg box for each project. It may be as
simple as a single field, or more if needed. My particular favorite is
a field that I can paste

Thanks Trevor!
It looks like your framework can be added after a RunRev project is
completed which takes a lot of worry out of development. Is it now called
ScreenSteps? I hope that you will also add some instructions for using
glx_FrameWorks with a RunRev application that uses Valentina server -
Sorry, I see that ScreenSteps is another excellent product. I should get

there is one trick to make it working like a multiuser database. The
same trick was frequently used in all flat-file based multiuser
environments (mostly websites). I did not try it with Revolution yet,
but did many times in Perl (CGI) and it works. It is not lightning fast,
but multiuser.

Hello Thomas,
You can also focus on other objects. Your button script could say

Maybe a little inelegant, but if it works when you have another field,
why not try either a hidden or offscreen field for that purpose.
