These
are not all exactly tutorials, but they all demonstrate the use of a
particular
aspect of Revolution, so I have grouped them here for convenience. XMLdemo1.rev Part 1 of a 2 part series demonstrating how to use the revXML library to create and manipulate XML data. This stack is also available on the Revolution web site, but this version may be more recent. Version 1.1 includes a fix for a bug in the XML construction kit as well as a few enhancements. Version 1.2 has some formatting changes, a couple of undocumented features added and a fix for a transcript display error. Speed.rev In my HyperCard days, I got a lot of useful information from an AOL conference scripting stack that discussed various ways to speed up HyperCard. Here is my attempt to provide a similar service for Revolution programmers. If anyone has any other good speed tips to add, please let me know. MySQLtests.rev This stack provides a GUI for testing connections to MySQL databases. It does basic queries as well as editing of tables and records. Not intended for long term use, but I found it helpful when starting to learn about MySQL. MySQL.rev This stack is a simple client for communicating with MySQL servers either on your own computer or remotely. It accepts any MySQL command and displays the results in a simple text-based table form. It is supposed to be similar to the client available when using OS X's Terminal, but does not require that the client & server be installed on your computer. SerialTest.rev A stack that demonstrates serial communications, both sending and receiving. This will work on Mac OS 9, Windows and now Mac OS X (with Rev 2.1 or later). For Macs with OS 9 and no serial ports, you need an adapter that allows one of it's ports to be configured as a printer port. WIth Mac OS X, any USB-serial adpater seems to work. The latest version allows you to select the termination characters for sending and receiving. |
