Re: Exit without quitting

I have a program that uses exit to top quite a lot, I compiled it for Windows, Mac, Linux and iOS. I've never had the program quit out on me when it hits the command. -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Exit-without-quitting-tp4711748p4711755.html Sen

Re: AW: Help: Odd menu behavior under LC6.7.11 on OSX

That was a very interesting bug, requiring a separate click to correctly display each menu! Fixed now, also I found an easy workaround for anyone using LC 6.7 - 8.1.2. Best wishes, Curry K. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.

Re: Exit without quitting

Thanks for the reply all. I will have to create some kind of logging system to see where it is exiting. At least I don't have to refactor 2 years of coding. Bob S ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to s

Engine Performance across Versions

Howdy, Whenever I have time between client work and addon updates, I will be publishing a series of test results and "Fight Night" videos comparing performance of different LC versions on tasks. My first test involved math and appending text to a variable, and LiveCode 6.7 was the winner! I

If you get around to it try one for Save As Standalone times. If I manually configure included libraries, LC 8.1.2 kicks some royal bahinca over earlier versions. Bob S On Jan 19, 2017, at 07:46 , Curry Kenworthy via use-livecode mailto:use-livecode@lists.runrev.com>> wrote: Howdy, Whenever

Alternative to Caller

Hi all. I know about the Caller property, which holds the name of the handler that called the current one. I notice however in the script debugger that it has a popup menu of every handler back to the beginning. What I need is a way to discern what that list is, and the line numbers of each sc

Hmmm... I inserted read from file "Forms Generator 8 Crash Log.txt" until EOF before the writes, then removed "at end" from the write commands. IT STILL overwrites the entire file! It looks like the open file command is wiping the file before any writes happen! Is this normal?? Bob S >

WS.Reputation.1 False Positive?

I’ve prepared and code-signed a Windows installer for my LiveCode app. When I download it via Google Chrome, the browser tries to discard it, then Norton tries to delete it. When I get over these humps (let’s hope other folks downloading will be prepared to do this!), Norton reports that the ins

Hi Bob, I think that you are forgetting at least two parameters in the open file command : open flle ABC for update (existing file you want to READ and then WRITE to) (I never used this form ...) open file ABC for append (existing fille you want to "ADD" to) ("just the job !") I hope that this
