Re: DP6 more strict?

I agree with MarkS on this, it is a good thing. I think I would have liked a warning though. One sort of looks past what has been ok before in trying to see where an error is. A bit like the difficulty in proofreading something you have written. You tend to "see" what you expect rather than what'

Hi Paul, If you can download Revolution/LiveCode 4.6.4, you should be able to either enter a serial number or download a license file from the store. If you download a license file and select manual activation in the registration window, you should not need to access the server when registeri

License activation for old versions

In working this weekend on a customer issue, I needed to check a behavior of an older version of LiveCode (version 4.6.4). Yes, I know how old that is, but we have a standalone built on it that - for reason far to complex to go into - we can't immediately update to a newer engine. When I try to ac

[OT] Ubuntu 15.10 64-bit Beta

I installed this on my main machine about a week ago and it imitated exactly the conditions of blown capacitors in a video card. Streaky effects all over the desktop, panels, and in file-browser (Thunar) windows, and almost completely bu**ering up LiveCode's interface. This took me about 3 day

Re: DP6 more strict?

I must confess this was one 'fix' which I was unsure about. The LiveCode script parser is very very lax - you can write things which look like they should work in some fashion, but don't actually do what you think. For a long time I have always had the point of view that such things should not

DP6 more strict?

In running some stacks against DP6 I came across a script error on opening one. The stack in question was simply a copy of a stack I have run without error since lc5.5. The error was well and truly an error. I had a repeat loop which I inadvertently entered as... Repeat for X = 1 to aNumber

Paths in Mac standalone headache
