Hi,
The real problem is that you can't attach a script with more than 10
lines while running a standalone app, so RunRev would have to be
installed on the QA machine, which is far from ideal.

Hi,
There are a number of reasons to extract the Scripts of RunRev
Objects into seperate text files:
1. We have to check files into a Source Database (Source Control
System) and Binary Files are not handlied that well.
<snip>
6 We want to write an "include" file pre-processor that grabs
functions from a Common Include file.
There are more reasons that this, but these are the main ones off
the top of my head!
Those sound to me like good reasons. But the question is whether the
associating of scripts to objects *needs* to be done within a
standalone executable ?
At first glance, it seems feasible to achieve all (or very nearly
all) of those objectives with a system like :
- scripts are kept in the database
- when it is time to release, a "build" script collects the scripts
from the database and sets them into the script of the various
objects
- the standalone builder is then run to create the standalone.
That would seem to get 5 out of the 6 issues covered cleanly, and
could still be usable (with slight inconvenience) by QA to rebuild
with earlier script versions. If that was a critical issue, you
could (easily?) provide a mechanism to allow multiple versions of
the scripts to be attached, with a run-time selection between them,
for QA investigative usage.
