Sorry, one other point: yes, you are correct, working from a pre-built
distribution is exactly the question I was asking, and if the only
issue is
syncing the IDE files with the development versions, that seems like a
small issue: many of the files at
https://github.com/livecode/livecode-ide/tree/develop/Toolset/libraries
are
months to years from their last update. Ditto for
https://github.com/livecode/livecode-ide/tree/develop/Toolset/palettes/script%20editor/behaviors.
That
makes it seem as though it would absolutely be possible to work on the
IDE
in the current 9.x release, with the caveat that merge conflicts would
be
*slightly* more likely.
Or am I missing something?
Yes - my point about the engine and IDE versions being mutually
dependent :)
There is every chance that the develop-9.0 HEAD IDE *WILL NOT WORK* with
the release-9.0.0 engine - if you can't run the IDE, you can't edit it,
or check your changes do what you want.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
