Hello all,
But I want to change this procedure : the app should only spit out
components if there had been changes in the component folders...
What methods should I use : checking timestamp of the folders on disk
?(how does one do that ?) Checking the number of files in folders ? ...
If anyone had an idea about this, I would be thankful to read about
it ;-)
I've tested out this little script - but not used it in a real case.
Seems to do what we want, but I can't be sure there isn't some way
around it ... adjust the folder path (and the list of files) to suit
your needs.
<code>
--> all handlers
on mouseUp
put "D:/Our Documents/trythis" into tFolder
put false into tOK
put empty into tPrevious
put empty into tCurrent
if there is not a folder tFolder then
create folder tFolder -- NB assuming the path to it must already
exist !!
end if
put the defaultFolder into tSaveFolder
set the defaultFolder to tFolder
if there is a file (tFolder & "/filelist.txt") then
put URL ("file:" & tFolder & "/filelist.txt") into tPrevious
filter tPrevious without ".*" -- eliminate special files !?
sort tPrevious
put the detailed files into tCurrent
filter tCurrent without ".*" -- eliminate special files !?
filter tCurrent without "filelist.txt*" -- eliminate special
files !?
sort tCurrent
if tCurrent = tPrevious then
put true into tOK
end if
end if
put tOK & CR & tPrevious & CR&CR & tCurrent & CR into field "Field"
if not tOK then
put "this is a" into URL ("file:" & tFolder & "/a.txt")
put "this is file c" into URL ("file:" & tFolder & "/c.txt")
put "this is b" into URL ("file:" & tFolder & "/b.txt")
put the detailed files into URL ("file:" & tFolder &
"/filelist.txt")
end if
set the defaultFolder to tSaveFolder
end mouseUp
