- 16 June 1992:
- • Added the ability to launch documents along with an application. If you pass an FSSpec in
- the "document" parameter, that document will be opened. This works whether or not the app
- was already running.And thanks to the Process Manager, it works even if the app isn't high-
- level-event-aware (the call will be translated into puppet-strings or old style AppParms
- data.) How's that for service!
- 19 June 1991:
- • I'm now NILing the ioNamePtr field of the param block before calling PBGetVolParms, which
- should prevent some unsightly crashes.
- 17 June 1991:
- • Got it to work properly with file servers. NOTE: You may still have trouble with particular
- applications on particular file servers, because a lot of servers seem to have screwed-up
- desktop databases that don't have entries for various apps on the server. This is the
- server's fault, not mine or PBDTGetAPPL's!
- 7 June 1991:
- • Added the ability to find an application on disk without launching it.
- • Changed the boolean allowLaunch flag to a more general mode setting to allow this.
- • Renamed the whole thing to SignatureToApp.
- • Made the process parameter optional.
- • fnfErr, not afpItemNotFound, is returned if no application is found on disk.
- • Extended the 'Launch' tool to try out all three modes.
- • Rewrote a lot of this documentation.
