After a year in therapy, my psychiatrist said to me, ‘Maybe life isn’t for everyone.’ lol!

Thanks for the thoughts you have discussed here. On top of that, I believe there are a few factors that really keep your auto insurance premium lower. One is, to take into account buying vehicles that are inside the good list of car insurance corporations. Cars which can be expensive are definitely more at risk of being lost. Aside from that insurance policies are also in line with the value of the car, so the costlier it is, then higher this premium you pay.

I’m interested in using Bowline for a SQLite app that I would like to launch on Mac and Windows, but I am concerned about whether it works on Windows or not, some earlier posters say it doesn’t. Could you clarify where Bowline is in terms of Windows?

Also, you say it lives on top of Appcelerator’s Titanium product; does this mean I have to sign up to their paid service?

Finally, is there a workaround to the Windows issue to buy the Titanium product and then put your Bowline into that? I’m not sure how to do that, but if you can post a blog solely on deployment (ie: WindowsXP, Vista, 7, etc) ,that’d be great.

Copyright protects you dingleberry. If you think source can’t be extracted from a “release” executable, you need to find a new field.

Anyway, what the hell is with OS X/Ubuntu? Does it not support the better Linux distros? Such as SuSE and Fedora? Why support a third rate Linux distro and why only support one? WTF?

@Kane and @jonny
I’ve had the same issue. The titanium version you have is different than 0.4.4.
Discover the titanium version you have (current on for 2009-12-05 is 0.7.0) and look for the manifest file in the twitter app (if you tried building it there will be three of them). Replace every occurrence of 0.4.4 by your version in manifest files and it will run ok.

With Ruby 1.9 you should be able to byte compile your code, so the actual source isn’t shipped. That should provide some protection.

Great work!

Just wondering, if you were to build a commercial application with Bowline/Titanium, how would you hide the Ruby code so that users/competitors can’t just copy it?
