Re: Garbage collection (crashing on Windows)

I do not remember how much of a performance boost we got from manipulating long lists this way, but if memory serves, it was quite beneficial. This code sample is just something I made up on the fly. Hopefully it demonstrates the value of this method. command createArray local tListOfRecord

OK Batman, riddle me this... How can a mobile scroller be in layer behind a field control? I see the scroller getting created and do its usual short flash of the scroll indicators but you can't use it but instead it sends mouseup to the field that goes to another card that has scrolling results a

With the current implementation of the engine, the only reason using empty is faster than using pValue is because the latter requires a variable lookup, the former is a constant. What are you using sValueCache for? Sent from my iPhone > On 19 Aug 2016, at 19:37, Mark Talluto wrote: > > >> O

Hi Ben, When I got to the end of this email I remembered something quite pertinent - you mentioned that the limit you were hitting was 2Gb... One thing to check is that the install of Windows you are running on cannot be poked to actually raise this limit to 3Gb: https://blogs.technet.micros

I'm trying to install an old version of LiveCode (4.x or 5.x). So far I've tried with 5.5.5: downloaded, ran installer, however it fails on activation. I'm using the same account (and I'm pretty sure same password) as I was a few years ago when that was the current version and I had a current
