Hello All,

I was wondering if some kind soul might enlighten me
on a couple of
points...

I'm running the latest RR 2.5 build, with a Studio
license (for both
Mac and Windows platforms).


First Item:

If I try to connect to a Valentina database using
the revdb_connect
function from my stack while running in the RR
development environment,
I get the error message "revdberr, invalid database
type".

But if I go ahead and create a stand-alone
application, it works just
fine.

I tried using the revSetDatabaseDriverPath to each
of the following
values in turn (when running in the development
environment on Mac OS
X) and it didn't help:

/Applications/Revolution 2.5/components
/Applications/Revolution 2.5/components/global
environment
/Applications/Revolution 2.5/components/global
environment/database_drivers
/Applications/Revolution 2.5/components/global
environment/database_drivers/MacOSX
/Applications/Revolution 2.5/components/global
environment/database_drivers/MacOSX/VXCMD_macho


The good news you have for us is that it does run fine in a standalone, which would suggest that something is amiss in the way Rev was bundled up for distribution.

Please bugzilla this so the RunRev team can
investigate and fix it.


Second Item:

It seems like you have to connect to a pre-existing
Valentina file, one
that was created with the Valentina application.  Is
there any way to
have the RR application create one "on the fly" if
it doesn't exist.


No, there isn't -- a design decision made by Paradigma Software. What you _can_ do, however, is make an empty database, read it as a binfile and put it into a custyom property, which you can then use as a template to create a new database file.

Many thanks!

Hope this helped,
