I'm just curious, but for those of you who have an Enterprise license,
how do you develop your stacks/standalones for multiple platforms?
Do you keep each platform separate and write the same stack for each
platform itself? Or do you have 1 stack file and use Property Profiles
and platform() functions to determine functionality?
Keeping separate copies pretty much removes the advantage of Rev's
cross-platform development capabilites. And invariably you'll find if
you do that, you'll forget to update one of the copies and it will break.
I do what Richard does, forking code as needed, which is required for
only a few things. I too have an "init" handler that manages platform
display differences when the app launches. Other than that, very little
forking is usually necessary.
I develop almost exclusively on my Mac for most of the project. When the
stack is almost ready, I open it in the Windows version of the IDE for
testing and final tweaking. I build for both platforms on the Mac, then
test again in Windows to make sure all went well, which is true most of
the time. Most of the Mac/Windows issues show up when I test the stack
near the end of the development process.
