Edit Menu - a default one - otherwise you get nothing

Hello, While the following might be obvious, it took far longer than it should have to discover because the following information does not exist in a complete simple fashion anywhere. The dictionary entries do not have this information and the one for Paste is bizarre. Now it will for future beginne...

Open socket, wait in .lc file using LiveCode Server

Hi, I have Apache 2.4 configured to work on a macOS 10.12 Mac Mini. I have Livecode Server 9.6.8 installed and running. Some stuff works, some doesn't. I am wondering if I am trying to do things that LiveCode does not support or requires something that I am not aware of. I have a standalone LiveCode...

Re: Using launch command with LiveCode Server

OK, this is really annoying. I sometimes run my machine for days without restarting. I restarted last night, have not done any development work yet today. Just launched LiveCode and tried launch again with the /System/Applications for Apple programs and only /Applications/ for others. Now it works! ...

Re: Using launch command with LiveCode Server

Eh? the Dictionary explicits excludes UNIX executables from "launch". Er... the dictionary footnote refers to linux *processes*, not applications. And the dictionary says the launch command is supported on all desktop server platforms. At any event, the launch command works for me on both linux and...

Re: Using launch command with LiveCode Server

Same error code? At this point I don't remember. Many times nothing happens. If not that, then the next most likely response is "no such program". Which suggests that what Livecode is expecting for an application path is nothing I have thought to supply. To avoid issues with an unsigned application...

Re: Using launch command with LiveCode Server

Does launch work on the bundle folder, or does it need the path to the executable within the bundle? I have no idea what RunRev did when building the launch command, but I really hope that they do not expect users to dig inside a macOS application bundle to find the executable for this command. The...

Re: Using launch command with LiveCode Server

I have since restarted my Macintosh, now I get: "no such program" as a result of the launch command, no matter the application. Nope, adding "System" does not help. I just switched to trying the launch command from the Livecode IDE MessageBox. and launching the Preview.app just the simple: launch "/...

Using launch command with LiveCode Server

Hello, I want to launch a LiveCode standalone app (built on MacOS) for MacOS from a .lc file. Or from a .livecodeScript stack file that is started from a .lc file. The app itself is not based on LiveCode Server, it is just a plain old standalone app. The application is in the Applications folder. It...

Re: [SOLVED - partially] LC Server (Indy)

And just one more tidbit. After doing all that work, lets reap a few rewards. How about accessing a livecodescript stack and read some input and send it back? Yes the following is trivial, but a beginning. A public website - not localhost! In order to go public, as far as I know, you will need to pu...

Re: Problem making standalone

Hi, I have also experienced this error. It comes and goes, no rhme or reason that I can tell. It does happen more often if I have multiple targets - Mac, Windows, HTML5. I get those Save dialogs for each substack for each target build. Going down to one target does not necessarily eliminate these sa...

Re: A web app launcher with responsive design

Hi,

Anybody have any ideas about LC 10 release?

The LC 10 DP 4 web page comes up with a 404 error.

So is ALL HTML5 code dead on LC 9.6.8 or just this stack because it relies on newer technology?

Re: A web app launcher with responsive design

HI,

I have a stack I am attempting to deploy on HTML5 (using Livecode 9.6.8).
Everything works fine in the Mac standalone build.
I get nothing that works from the HTML5 build.
If I run it in Test build it comes up with "Err #1".

Any chance this stack you have works in 9.6.8?

Thanks,
Andrew

Re: Keeping Sockets Open, Clients, Servers

OH, One more thing. I forget if the posted code watches for the "kaw" and "ACK" to be received. When those do get received, you need to note them and delete them from being processed as legitimate data in your "read the socket" code. (I did forget in my application derived from the code I posted and...
