Hi Roger,
I've got a file "Gen.html" on my desktop (OS X) along with my RunRev application. The following script will open "Gen.html" while in Runtime but the Standalone does not work:
on mouseUp set the itemDelimiter to "/" put (item 1 to -2 of the effective fileName of this stack)&"/" into myFolderName get "file:"&myFolderName&"gen.html" revGoURL it --- This works in Runtime but not in standalone end mouseUp
I do have Internet Script Libraries checked in the Distribution Builder. Can anyone help?
Sounds like a path problem...
On OS X things are a little different than on other platforms ;-)
When in dev-mode "item 1 to -2 of the effective fileName of this stack" will return what you exspect...
But when you build a standalone this will return something what you obviously don't exspect... (And now to something completely different! :-)
You have to see it to believe it ;-)
Control-Click your standalone and select "Show contents" (or something like this...) Then this folder will open and reveal another folder "Contents"... Another doubleclick will reveal 2 more folders and some files...
Open the folder "MacOS" and you will find a file named "Revolution"...
Now THIS is your original stack you build the standalone from, with the engine wrapped around it...
And THIS FOLDER (Appname.app/Contents/MacOS/)!!! is what "item 1 to -2 of the effective fileName of this stack" will return in an OS X standalone...
So what can you do?
In this case "the directory" will be the right place :-) A.k.a "the defaultfolder" or "the folder"
Try this (i do it all the time and it works fine :-D)
on mouseUp
set the itemDelimiter to "/"
if the environment = "development" then
put (item 1 to -2 of the effective fileName of this stack)&"/"
into myFolderName
get "file:"&myFolderName&"gen.html"
else
get "file:gen.html"
##no need to specify a folder, since we ARE in the correct folder
automatically
end if
revGoURL it --- This works in Runtime but not in standalone
end mouseup
See the RR dictionary for "environment"
Hope that helps...
Thanks, Roger
