Recital 10 introduced the REQUIRE() and REQUIRE_ONCE() statement.
The REQUIRE() statement includes and executes the contents of the specified file at the current program execution level.
When a file is included, the code it contains inherits the variable scope of the line on which the include occurs. Any variables, procedures, functions or classes declared in the included file will be available at the current program execution level.
The REQUIRE_ONCE() statement is identical to the REQUIRE() statement except that Recital will check to see if the file as already been included and if so ignore the command.
The full syntax is:

Each Recital table can have one or more data dictionaries to provide a central repository for constraints and other metadata.
Here's how to set up field validation based on dynamic values from another table.
Using the products.dbf table from the southwind sample database, validation can be added to the categoryid field to ensure it matches an existing categoryid from the categories.dbf table.
If you have access to the Recital Workbench, you can use the modify structure worksurface to add and alter your dictionary entries, including a customized error message if required.

open database southwindThe rlookup() function checks whether an expression exists in the index (master or specified) of the specified table . An attempt to update categoryid with a value not in the list will give an error: Validation on field 'CATEGORYID' failed.
alter table products add constraint;
(categoryid set check rlookup(products.categoryid,categories))

When using Eclipse CDT on Fedora 7 I was unable to build anything from inside Eclipse Ganymede.
As it turns out, you need to do this:
cp /usr/bin/ld /usr/libexec/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/4.1.2/real-ld
This is because gcc does not look in /usr/bin for ld which results in the following error when building:
collect2: cannot find ld
You can see where gcc looks for other programs with this command:
gcc -print-search-dirs
Recital 10 introduced a FOREACH command, much like PHP and some other languages. This simply gives an easy way to iterate over arrays. foreach works on arrays and objects, and will issue an error when you try to use it on a variable with a different data type or an uninitialized variable. There are two syntaxes; the second is a minor but useful extension of the first:
The second form does the same thing, except that the current element's key will be assigned to the variable key on each loop. This form works only on associative arrays and objects.
FOREACH array_expression AS value
statements...
ENDFOR
FOREACH array_expression AS key => value
statements...
ENDFOR
The first form loops over the array given by array_expression. On each loop, the value of the current element is assigned to value and the internal array pointer is advanced by one (so on the next loop, you'll be looking at the next element). The second form does the same thing, except that the current element's key will be assigned to the variable key on each loop. This form works only on associative arrays and objects.
Yes, your FoxPlus and FoxPRO applications should run under Recital with little to no changes at all. We provide expert product support if you have any questions or problems. If you lack the resources to move your applications into Recital we can provide that service to you also if required.
I was fascinated to learn that marvel are shipping a complete linux device that runs on a wall plug for less than $100. The device has gigabit ethernet and USB connectivity making it ideal for building home security and surveillance devices that can be connected together.
This would be an ideal device for Recital Embedded. Details can be found here. Additional information can be found here and this article in Scientific American 8 Big Things to Do with a Mini Server.
Clearly this device has a lot of uses including acting as a loadbalancer and also as a bunch of loadbalanced application servers that access data on a network using glusterfs or samba. Another great use of this device would to configure it as a rsnapshot server to backup all the machines in your home! Interestingly in quantity the device is only US$50.
Seeing as this device runs linux, nomachine can be installed on it.
Marvell have a development wiki here.

And apparently IE9 will support rounded corners.

When the node is clicked set editable to false. Set editable to true in the double-click event handler.
// the click event handler
private function onclick_sourcetree(e:Event):void {
yourTree.editable = false;
}
// the doubleclick event handler
private function ondoubleclick_sourcetree(e:Event):void {
yourTree.editable = true;
yourTree.editedItemPosition = {columnIndex:0, rowIndex:sourceTree.selectedIndex};
}
In Linux you can run lsof and pipe it though grep for the files you are interested in, for example;
$ lsof | grep db.exe | grep accounts db.exe 16897 john 6uw REG 253,0 20012 3413872 /usr/recital100/qa/accounts.dbf db.exe 16897 john 7u REG 253,0 4176 3413885 /usr/recital100/qa/accounts.dbxIf you want to check for locks you can use lslk, for example;
$ lslk | grep db.exe | grep accounts db.exe 16897 253,0 3413872 20012 w 0 0 0 12319 0 /usr/recital100/qa/accounts.dbfIf you don't have lslk installed you can install it with one of the updaters, for example on redhat linux:
$ yum update lslk
This guide will assist you in setting up an rsnapshot backup server on your network. rsnapshot uses rsync via ssh to perform unattended backups of multiple systems in your network. The guide can be found on the centos website here.
