Don: Lost Mode of Operation in DSS
Hello Don,
I just thought i would let you know that we seem to have lost a mode
of operation in DSS3 that worked fine in my original Slide Show
Picture Viewer.
This mode is: when you want to open a pic file with the viewer in
the command line such as for example:
DSS3.exe "MyPicFile.jpg"
or something like that, or when you use another program to open the
viewer program with a certain pic file using Euphoria:
system("DSS3.exe picfile.jpg",0)
or something like that.
Same problem trying to use Windows' SystemEx() C func call.
The main problem seems to be DSS3 can not find the sdata file when
the program is called from some other program or command line.
It finds it just fine when you double click on the 'bound' exe file,
but never works any other way.
Apparently it relies on the current directory setting so it cant
find the sdata file when this directory is not the same as the
directory where the bound DSS3.exe file is located.
I would suggest getting the correct directory for the sdata file
from the command line command_line().
Perhaps you may wish to look into this?
I might too.
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
