I am writing a Proof of Concept where the stack interacts with Web Services. I want to stress the Web Service from a single stack with requests. I'm sort of at a loss as to how to invoke multiple "threads" to the Web Service. Should I use multiple cards with startup scripts? Or a looping structure w...

Thanks to all the more experienced folks for advice. I filed a bug report and it's on the list for a fix. The advice on a service which saves versions was well taken. I use the Mozy Service BUT I had saved versions which could not be opened subsequently. There was a good starter stack which I could ...

I am having this same sort of issue. I opened the stack in Notepad++ and recreated the work but now it has happened again. All that I can figure is that it is related to the laptop going to sleep with LiveCode open at the time. I am really getting weary of recreating this work.

Jacqueline,

Thank you for the reply. I am using 7.1.1 exclusively now and I used Notepad ++ to "Cut and Paste" the scripts from the stack which would not open.

So BOTTOM LINE is stick to ONE version of the software!

Regards,

Thomas

I have persistent challenges with a stack that never seems to open. As an example, I worked on it yesterday and the same stack will not open today. However, a copy of the stack will open. I was using a cloud sync service for version control of the stack and thought perhaps that the Cloud service (Mo...

LC 8 DP7 seems pretty stable.

All the releases after that seem a bit wonky.

Thanks to everyone for the advice and help. The extensions for JSON seem to work properly. FastJson doesn't seem to work for me but that is likely my ignorance. I have not attempted the XML stack approach. I am a bit thick on how to get the extensions to "compile" for the Web....it compiles properly...

Peter, thanks for the confirmation.

The Web Service I am using as a source can also produce JSON...It's just not as trivial to parse as using the externals.

So I might have to use that route IF I want to make a Web App.

Perhaps I can code an extension to parse the XML in LiveCode.

I am in the middle of creating an app which uses revxml commands to parse XML returning from a Web Service. Does anyone on the forum have experience with this combination? The "regular" build works fine for Windows...since I can include the XML externals. So any information would be useful. Thank yo...

Using LC8 DP12 the Message Box doesn't show up on Windows 10 Home Edition nor on Windows 7 Enterprise. I'm unfamiliar with filing a bug report. Is the quality section of the main site the proper place to file the report? As for the lack of desktop documentation, the dictionary seems to be absent. I ...

Colleagues, I am experiencing a LARGE performance difference in the "answer file" command on Windows 7 Professional versus Windows 10 Home. A lag of 3 seconds is present on Windows 7 professional and not present on Windows 10. The Windows 7 machine is company supplied and the disk is encrypted...tha...

Colleagues,

LC8 DP7 seems to work better for me. That is, as an example, the Message Box doesn't appear in DP 11 or 12. Also, the documentation seems to be there in DP 7 but not in the subsequent releases. Is this just me or is this the expected behavior?

Thank you,

Thomas
