Re: application architecture

It is doable. In the process of implementing something on this lines. However, not using any file server since all is to be supplied as a complete set in a USB drive with option to see when new release is available (this bit hence is the webserver access for updates). In your case, if you will be bu...

Re: How to secure application to prevent distribution to others?

You could supply your application using a USB drive and have the static serial number of the USB drive associated with the copy of the application. This will mean, you will need to have the USB attached, and the application will check if it is and what serial number. Note with this method, you will ...

Re: open and close stack command

Hi Glenn, The operation on openstack may be a bit confusing at times. One thing you need to note is that when you say "stack" in script, it acts upon the current stack, now note that a substack is also a stack hence any refence to make while you at at the substack level but intending to refer to car...

Re: Howto for a map-like application, which way to go?

Hi Olaf Hamann, I assume that this can be done but more info would be needed to assist the thinking process. I assume from a map-like application, you want to be able to drap the "canvas" onto which your city is drawn, same way a google-maps application would, and the city markets you mention are wh...

Re: revZipper

Is the code not working for you? From you list provided, was that output from revZipEnumerateItems(filename)? I noted that from your list some files do appear down the list and not in any order as expected. Under windows I believe the zip system will add files to the archive sequentially: meaning, d...

Re: SQLite BLOB limitations

Thanks Mark for reply, I was just puzzled because my implementation was going through a save of all resources to the database when I encountered this "limit". smaller files have no problems at all. I have reworked the implementation whereby I now store these bigger files as customproperties. Thanks ...

Hi I am struggling with this. Need to store data in sqlite as blob entities and for some reason, any file bigger that 8MB causes the application in IDE and in standalone to crash. file type is .zip and have used same list of files to create varying size of the zip and anything more than 8.15 fails o...

Re: Using videos

Hi,
You can always use the video files imported as a control by first writing them out to temporary file location and use the "filename" command to assign to the player object.
you can ping for a sample file, not at my usual machine hence can't post sample now
