I have run into a minor oddity. In general, when building standalones, I prefer to have the Standalone builder set to:
Search for the required inclusions when saving the standalone application vs Select inclusions for the standalone application [and manually identifying the libraries to include] My reasoning (right or wrong) is that auto-detection SHOULD be the more effecient approach in that LiveCode would install just the bits that I am using and not stuff I am not, where as in a large and complex project, I might forget to include something I need (of accidentally un-selecting some library when selecting another) OR include a library I don't really need. What I have run into is that libURL is not being autodetected and included. If I manually pick my inclusions and select the "Internet", all is well. If choose automatic, no libURL. I already know that when libURL is included it is added as a hidden group in the main stack and so is not available until the main stack has loaded. My code executes a send in time call to code that then fetches a couple URLs and POSTs some data to another couple URLs. Again, when manually included, this code all works. My question is: Does anyone know HOW autodetection works? Does it only look for keywords in scripts in the main stack? My code for doing a couple put URLs and then some posts is located in two places: a (library) substack of the main stack, with the start using occurring during the 'startup' message and in an external stack that is opened invisible into memory, also during the 'startup' message. What code do I need where for the Standalone builder to auto detect that libURL should be included? _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
