After installing LC 9.5 on macOS "Catalina", when I run it I get a
system alert I've never seen before:
"LiveCode Indy 9.5.0" wants access to
control "System Events". Allowing control
will provide access to documents and data
in "System Events", and to perform actions
within that app."
What fresh hell is this? Is this something all of our users will be
seeing?
I'm guessing (because there's not much in that text for actually
knowing) that this occurs with some Apple event and/or AppleScript use
- is that correct?
Anyone know how to never see that weird thing again? (Other than just
clicking "OK", which users will do but is never a good idea unless
they fully understand the implications, which I don't believe is
possible in this case given the vague wording).
I have not seen that one, but I have seen one-time permission dialogs
for (a) Internet access and (b) writing to the user's "Documents" folder
for a properly CODE SIGNED 9.0.5 standalone under Catalina.
I assumed it was like iOS permissions and probably LC will need to add
to the OSX standalone setting tab a list of permissions you have to
check off for your app, but I have not taken the time to research what
needs to be done to prevent such warnings.
