2018-06-19 Thread Trevor DeVore via use-livecode
Hi all, I've been doing quite a bit of work with the Foreign Function Interface (FFI) in LiveCode Builder (LCB) lately. As I make the shift to a 64-bit app on macOS I want to convert most of the custom externals I use to LCB. I think they will be easier to improve going forward. Today I finished

Yes, I did write the original Data Grid. One thing I’ve learned when working with any code in LiveCode that is shared between objects, however, is that when you see one object updating and none of the other objects you’ve forgotten to add “of me”. -- Trevor DeVore On Mon, Aug 6, 2018 at 10:41 AM
