rev 4.0 - data grids - standalone problems

Post by AlexAdams » Sat Nov 28, 2009 6:11 am

I am creating my first standalones for a project I have been working on for almost a year. A fair amount of testing has been done in the development environment, with no known faults, but this is the first attempt at deployment for a wider beta audience.

The standalone versions on all platforms are quite funky.

I am working through things, one at a time.

Right now I working on the data grid problem. None of the dozen or so data grids are working. At all. They don't resize, or get drawn with data or respond to any mouse events, etc.

Is there a known fault I should be aware of?

Thanks,
Alex Adams

Do you have a splash screen that loads the other stacks of your project? If so it is likely that the datagrid library did not get included. Make a substack to your splash screen and call it "Data Grid Templates Dud". Save your splash screen and build the executable. This will force to include and start using the datagrid library.

Hope that helps,

Malte

Malte,

I do have a splash stack. The openStack code looks like this (with the exception of the Quartam Reports serial number.

on openStack
start using stack "libUUID"
start using stack "Data Grid Templates 1247708866452"

if "qrtReportsLib" is not among the lines of the stacksInUse then
start using stack "qrtReportsLib.rev"
qrtReports_InitLicense "################################"
end if
end openStack

It (rev) is already putting in the Data Grid Templates 1247708866542 stack.

I tried adding the dud sub stack that you suggested with no change.

Any more Ideas?

Alex
