No, but convenient. revLoadedStacks will report the stack as
available, also when it is closed, but in memory while the openStacks
would not. What I was trying to do there (not thinking about the
Metacard guys and gals I must admit), was:
look if chartsEngine is in use -> all well, demo will work
look if chartsEngine is open, but not in use -> start using it, demo
will work
look if it is in memory, but not open, nor in use -> start using it,
demo will work
look if it is not in memory at all -> prompt user to locate the folder
it lives in, load it, start using
revLoadedStacks is handy here and has been around since quite a while.
I use it quite often in standalones too. For the next version I will
do what Klaus suggested though and check revAppVersion(), unless there
are IDEs around that do not support that call??? However, the
chartsenginelibrary itself does not rely on any calls to the
revLibraries I am aware of. For now, I´ll have to ask the Metacard
users to update me with any problems they see arise with both lib and
demo, so I can get that fixed for 1.1. Maybe I should contact the
great poobah (That´s Klaus at the moment, right?) for any further
advise. Thanks for bringing this to my attention Richard.
All the best,
