Well, that was quick. I had to reboot my system, and when it came back
up there was a ready-made answer.
Peter-
I got the hint about in-memory databases from Pete in the first place,
so I'll just defer to him on this. Carry on.

Good suggestion Mark. I'll jump in here.
When you call revOpenDatabase, specify the path name as ":memory:". That
creates a database in memory instead of on disk which will disappear when
you close your application. It does mean you'll have to create the
tables/columns each time you open the da
Mark, that's new to me. Can you explain further?

A correction, I think you have to use "put offsets(tString, the text of f) into
tOffsets
Thanks, Peter, that's what I was looking for.
Also, thanks Pete for the advice on using a database. That's what I used in a
past, non-Livecode project, but unless the database can be embedded in the main
stack, I can't use that here.

Okay…
Found this related to shell scripts and the 255 error…
http://lists.runrev.com/pipermail/use-livecode/2010-June/141991.html
Not sure what to do about it though…?
It does appear to be a permission error. If I run: sudo /bin/mkdir
~livecodetest from the terminal it will create my folder
Okay…going to try tackling the MergeBonjour route…
First problem, sending shell command. I have sent shell commands before through
a stack.
Starting with a simple: mkdir ~/Livecodetest
This works from the command line, but when I attempt to run this from a stack,
I don't get my new folder?
If you use "find" you'll have to "go invisible" to each substack, as has been
pointed out, or you'll get each substack flashing to the front. The other thing
is that the find command will find the first instance of the string in each
stack, so you will have to use the foundchunk function and to
I agree that http isn't the ideal solution, but we don't have an android
option yet.

The external doesn't. I will probably do a desk
I'm just thinking out loud at this point because I'm not messing with code
this very moment to try it.
The teacher wouldn't have to share their IP, necessarily. The students'
app will know the ip address and could then fairly quickly send requests on
all addresses in that range (1-255) until they

John,
If you were to use http, the teacher would not have to set something up.
You would build the code right into the teacher's app and the students'
clients. The only problem I see is that I believe that the http code in LC
is blocking, so if you had something flakey happen with the connection

If you want to share IP like this then you don't need bonjour. Bonjour
Hi Mike…
This is just thinking off the top of my head…
But I was looking at a strategy that could be duplicated over and over in
multiple student(client/iOS) - teacher(server/DesktopAPP) scenarios.
Similar to classroom response systems (clickers), but targeted at more specific

John,
Can you be a little more specific about what you are thinking about doing?
There are numerous ways to skin the cat. You could have the LC app on the
teacher's machine act as an http server and the ios apps as clients. You
could also have the mobile apps generate files and upload them to dr
Yes on the desktop side. You will need to wait for android externals to get

Hi all.
I'm also in the market for a solution like this.
Monte, would the solution you described work cross platform? (So either Mac
or PC on desktop and either iOS or Android devices running the mobile app?)
Thanks,
