How to create a List of My Functions and My Commands

I know how to get a list of LCs inbuilt function and commands but is there a quick way to get all my own handler names that are contained within an entire stack? I can get customProperties["mySet"], but I can't find customFunctions or customCommands. At this stage it looks like I have to step thr

Now we're working on round 3, by the way. There are some more things that are coming out from fuzzing the parser. We'll see what the short and medium-term plans are, but if I read it right, there are probably 3-5 more patches, minimum, coming. On Sat, Sep 27, 2014 at 11:04 PM, J. Landman Gay wr

Stack format concerns

Now that I have upgraded from 5.5.5 to 6.3.3 are there any stack format issues I need to be aware of? All compatible? I've been thinking Since I have 51 release notes to read between these 2 versions what this calls for is some sort of release note reader/stack that helps organize everything.

Hi all, having read up on, and tried, most posts with suggestions on how to make LiveCode access the web through a proxy, I'm in a cul-de-sac. It works fine (POST-ing a SOAP web service) without going through a proxy. Although I get "error timeout" when HTTPProxy is set to my clients proxy serv

Mats, Pardon me if I do not understand all of the ramifications of corporate firewalls and proxy servers, but if your app is being used by your client behind his/her corporate firewall aren't the HTTP calls going through the proxy server by default? It that is the case, then you do not need to
