What versions of OS X, Xcode, iOS SDK to build externals?

2015-01-13 Thread Robert L.
I’ve posted this to the forums as well, but I know that the mailing list 
has a slightly different audience.  

I’m trying my hand at building some simple externals, but I can't even 
seem to make one attempt to build. Xcode is telling me that my project has 
"0 targets, missing base SDK". I think it may be due to using too recent 
version of Xcode (and thus missing older iOS SDKs).

Currently I am on OS X Yosemite 10.10.1, Xcode 6.1.1 (which lets me target 
iOS 6.0 to 8.1), with the LiveCode iOS externals R14 SDK Support. 

Are there any tricks to build an external with the most recent tools? If 
not, what is the most recent combination of OS X and Xcode that is known 
to work for building iOS externals? I can build a virtual machine if 
needed.

Any advice in getting started building externals would be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks, 

Robert

Re: Getting LC 8

2015-04-03 Thread Robert L.
Graham:

Is this with the “commercial” version of LC?  If so, I’ve experienced this 
too. 

There is no commercial version 8 DP yet, only the community edition.  I 
think it has to do with the way they autoupdater checks to see if 
something newer is available. It sees a newer version, but the check isn’t 
edition specific (from whatI can tell).  When  you try to update, it fails 
because there really isn’t a file to download.

Inter process communication

2015-09-30 Thread Ethan L
Greetings 
Has anyone done any work on inter process communications between two livecode 
instances. 
Specifically, I would like to be able to have a client instance (eg iPhone LC 
app) make native LC commands calls to a remote instance (eg UNIX LC server) 
while masking / embedding all of the plumbing (eg pipe establishment, 
authentication, session encryption, etc). 
This idealized two tier architecture would seperate the solution (application) 
developer logic from the administrative logic. Hopefully isolating the 
configuration details outside of the application into a configuration manifest 
/ file which could then be runtime manipulated / selected based upon conditions 
at that time. 
Yes, one could accomplish this through a combination of LC, JSON, SQL, etc. I 
am hoping to achieve an end to end LC solution. 
One could then easily leverage server based resources in a n-tier distributed 
compute architecture while maintaining the benefits a high level language to 
deliver a flexible elegant solution 
Thanks in advanceEthan

Re: Defaults for groups

2016-05-13 Thread l...@pbh.on-rev.com
I thought you should be able to set the templateGroup properties, maybe using a 
plugin that opens on LC startup, so I tried a test stack and found that the 
templateGroup props don’t apply to a new group (at least not the margins and 
borderWidth), the dictionary suggests this should work, so I tried it in LC 7 - 
no luck, then LC 5 - still no luck! so I guess this is a long standing bug that 
doesn’t affect anyone…

I’d be happy to bug report it with my test stack, but I don’t want to tread on 
any toes!
