Re: Mobile SDK Preference

Hi Dan, You seem to have misunderstood a little. LC 6.6.4 CAN work with XC6.0 LC 6.6.5 made it possible to work with XC6.1 LC 6.7 is probably the way to go however as it is the most up-to-date and needs as much testing and reporting as possible. All the best to you. Sean Cole *Pi Digital Produ

Also from the Dictionary entry for return: To halt the current handler without returning a result, use the exit control structure instead. On Sun, Nov 16, 2014 at 8:01 AM, Kay C Lan wrote: > On Sun, Nov 16, 2014 at 2:44 AM, J. Landman Gay > wrote: > > That's what I get for being a one-trick po

Sean, Thanks for the tip! I didn't know that LC 6.6.4 wasn't compatible with XCode 6.0. I installed LC 6.7 and everyone is happy again. Thanks! -Dan > Bear in mind that LC6.6.4 only accepts up to Xcode 6.0. If you are trying > to add XC6.1 then you will get the error message "The chosen fold

Re: how are variables passed from functions?

Hi Dan, What is the exact path to the file you are referencing in the MobileSupport preference? Copy and paste it here. Bear in mind that LC6.6.4 only accepts up to Xcode 6.0. If you are trying to add XC6.1 then you will get the error message "The chosen folder is not a valid iOS SDK". All the b

Mobile SDK Preference

When I choose Preferences and click "Mobile Support", you used to be able to click "Add Entry" and select the Xcode application and LiveCode was happy. But, with LC 6.6.4, I choose the Xcode application (version 6.1) and LC reports, "The chosen folder is not a valid iOS SDK.". What am I doing
