Hollywood forums

You're absolutely positive it is impossible to compile 9.2 apps? I mean, it's already a carbon app. I'd figure you'd have to manually edit the resource fork and change the file typ to APPL. Nobody else got any idea (Andreas maybe?)

Thanks jPV, I figured that out a few minutes after my last post when going through the docs and code samples again. Anyway, thanks for helping out! Everything runs very well now

Forgive me for resurrecting this old thread but I think my question fits here: I've compiled a Hollywood program as a carbon app for MacOS PPC. It works fine on OSX (10.4.11) but under MacOS 9.2 it just shows the .app as a folder. It is not recognized as an executable. Anyone got any experience on h...

Thanks for taking the time to answer back! It has been some time but I didn't have the time to tinker with Hollywood since then. I'm still stuck and I can't seem to wrap my head around it. I rewrote my main loop to this: Repeat If WaitKeyDown("ANY") = True p_myfunction() Else WaitEvent() E...

Thanks for the quick reply! Took me a while (2 kids, full-time job, you know it ...) My main loop looks similiar to this: ;main loop Repeat WaitKeyDown("ANY") p_myfunction() Forever I take the WaitKeyDown() function simply listens for ANY key - which does not include the onMenuSelect event...

Awesome! Way to go!

zylesea - oh yes indeed. This thread is just a classic example 8-) Andreas - thanks for taking the time and answering. It was helpful, although I can't seem to figure it out correctly. Please have a look: TextOut(#CENTER, #CENTER, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed di...

Thanks for the quick reply, jalih - appreciate it! (For some reason after skipping through some examples I figured + would be used for concatenation within Hollywood as well ... )

So first off a "Hi there!" to everyone, I'm new to the forums and just got Hollywood yesterday. (Well, bought it last week, but didn't have the time to snoop into it). I'm about to return to the Amiga community and in the process of buying a SAM 460 machine. Yaay! I bought Hollywood becaus...
