The note in the engine says resources/code/<platform> but that it will probably move later on.

Great! I think it would be a quite helpful addition and save having a diverse range of property names for things like text color and maintaining inheritance is always nice.

Hi This is just a small thing but it there any reason why the build directory for the different platforms can't be standardised? I see iOS and Mac are under _build and android is under build-android-armv6/livecode/out. It would seem to me to be nice if you are building one of the mobile platforms on...

Hi

It would be nice if we could access an array of the effective colors of the widget with my colors.

Hi

Is there any timeframe on the Java ffi? I was wondering if an interim solution could be a way to bind to an external function so we can therefore use the JNI stuff that is already in lcidlc. Indeed perhaps lcidlc could pump out a LCB library declaring all the the handlers???

Howdy So... we put native code in resources/code/mac etc... Do we put a zipped lcext in resources/code/ios or seeing as the whole extension package is zipped do we just use resources/code/iphoneos9.1 resources/code/iphonesimulator9.1 and so on... PS I can't see any implementation of this in the stan...

Hi

I'm wondering if we can add a generic way to pass the fact that a foreign value shouldn't be released. I'm encountering a crash on a function that returns a pointer to a static string. At the moment it seems doimport just has a hard coded true for release.

@LCFraser is in the middle of implementing 64 bit support for Mac which also resolves all or most of the reasons we can't currently build against anything higher than 10.9. Here's the relevant PR to your error https://github.com/livecode/livecode/pull/3167

Ok... so I need a linked version of the device build to build the test harness from so I've made some tweaks to bind-ios-standalone.sh in order to pump out standalone-mobile-community-linked.ios-engine. Next step is to work out how to do a deploy build for the test harness as an extra build phase. A...

Good stuff with the CDN. Will that allow caching of the mem file as I couldn't get safari to cache it

I probably won't worry about it if you think it will stuff up the logs

@-hh I'm sorry I haven't spend more than the time it took to write the previous post thinking about externals for HTML5. Are the standard externals included in HTML5?

@-hh Regarding externals I haven't yet investigated the possibility of compiling to JavaScript. I suspect I would need considerable hand holding from @peter-b or @lcmark in order to achieve that. My understanding though is there are or will be JavaScript hooks so we can use the millions of JavaScrip...

Is it possible to run the OS X dev engine -ui. Seems to break here. I'm trying to work out if I can build the iOS external test engines on the fly rather than using pre-built standalones. It's looking like it's going to be tricky. Probably not a huge issue to open up a stack and click a button in th...

Hi folks

I've put together some new templates for Xcode here https://github.com/montegoulding/liveco ... -templates

Enjoy
