Hollywood forums

I have to admit that I'm pretty much a phpbb3 noob. Is this something that could be configured in the admin's setting? If it is, let me know which switch to modify and I'll do it

I actually got the same report from another user via email today. It could be related to OS 4.1 Update 1 which I currently don't have installed here. I'll try it myself as soon as I update to OS 4.1.1.

Of course you can always write your own pattern matching routines

Oh well, what you're trying to do is clearly more than pattern matching is designed to do AFAICS, AmigaDOS patterns use parentheses as tokens so you will run into trouble if you try to use them as non-tokens. This is not a Hollywood bug, it's related to the way patterns work in AmigaDOS.

Oops, yes, I totally missed out that the write error actually came from the *file requester* and not from Hollywood. Then of course it is clearly an error in your code. It works under AmigaOS because the Amiga requester allows specification of a non-existent file. The Windows requester however doesn...

Got an example? The following works here:
It returns 1 as expected and there are parentheses in the pattern.

No problem, I'll send you Malibu via email as an lha archive

Very good... um, for me that is Issue solved, I'm outta here

Yes, that's a bug in 4.0 that occurred only under OS3 but it is fixed in 4.5. From the Hollywood history:

- Fix [OS3]: Embedded alpha channel images did not work in compiled applets/executables

Well, I'm the main Hollywood guy, Andreas Falkenhahn, and I've the same problem as Allanon: TIME is scarce with Hollywood getting more and more complex!
