Dear List Members LiveCode 6.1.1-rc-6 is now available.
Once again we hope this will be the last release candidate in the current maintenance cycle. Details of the contents of this release can be found below. *WARNING:* Bug 11127 which was partially fixed for RC5 is the sole focus of this release. Our initial fix was causing stack corruptions for certain users and we believe the issue is now fixed. However, it is very difficult to test this with certainty so once again we ask you as the community for help. Could you please make a backup of your key projects and open them in LiveCode 6.1.1 RC6, save them and re-open them. If no corruptions occur we can be sure the fix is stable. *Upgrading* You can update LiveCode through the auto-updating within the product help menu or by downloading the installers directly here: http://downloads.livecode.com/livecode/6_1_1/ *Release Contents* This release contains the following changes: (Emboldened bugs were fixed for RC5) Access to the current behavior object.
