Hi Jacque, The stacks opened modeless - I configure it that way by setting the crop cREVLoadInfo["mode"] to "modeless" when it is prepped for release. I'll have to check through the preOpenCard code to see if it uses "this stack" anywhere, or somewhere in the handler that is called from preOpenSta

Re: Security of LiveCode compiled files

Okay, so there is an option in the application builder to move substacks into individual stackfiles. If you do this, then the encryption applied to the mainstack does NOT apply to the substacks, and the code is visible to them. Someone might say, "Well, don't do that!" but unless you know it's h

Well I thought I had this problem licked but as usual, LC manages to provide some last minute surprises. The stack in question is destined to be a modeless plugin. I've been doing 90% of my testing with it as a regular toplevel stack, not a plugin and the fix for this problem (locking/unlocking m

Re: Security of LiveCode compiled files

This is the only way that you can save changes to a stack that is a part of the application. I may have misspoken about substacks, I really meant stack files. ie. stacks that are included in the app. I was under the impression that substacks were treated like stack files when you compiled, but n

Re: Team development solution

A versioning solution having the stack as the atomic unit is fairly useless for a large application like an accounting app for instance. I can conceive of a web based solution that could handle this, taking a stack on the server, adding handlers for managing versioning in a frontscript, and then

Hi Skip, You'll get multiple opinions on storing data within stack files. I'm of the school that application data ought to be in a database, not the stack but that's a separate discussion and there's arguments both ways. I don't think the code in the stacks is easily de-compiled. I've never look
