I'm trying to try out the demo Valentina external without success so far. Attempts to initialize with:

get Valentina_Init( 10 * 1024 * 1024  )

fails with a syntax error, I assume because the external is not being seen by Rev. I've set my stack's exteral property to:

"/Applications/Revolution Studio/2.7.2-gm-1/Externals/Database Drivers/VXCMD_macho.bundle"

which appears to be the correct path to the external. Any guesses as to what is wrong here?

G5 running OS 10.4.7 and Rev Studio 2.7.2.

James,

It appears that you are trying to load the RevDB valentina driver as an external which won't work. If you want to use the Valentina external itself you need to download it from the www.paradigmasoft.com. Valentina 2 has instructions for installation. If you want to use the Valentina 1 external you can put that into the:

~/Documents/My Revolution Studio/Externals/

folder and the next time you launch rev the external will be available in the Revolution development environment. To check type this in the msg box:

put the externalPackages of stack "home"

and you should see Valentina XCMD (or something like that) in the result.

Thank you Trevor. That is exactly what I was trying to do. Am I correct then that the default installation permits access to Valentina databases (with the 10 minute timeout) only through the rev database library (or through a third party library such as yours) in the absence of the Valentina XCMD?
