Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

I don't know. I can't remember. I wasn't really setting out to do a step by step guide for solving AS problems. I was just documenting the steps I took as I weaved my way through the problems, partly for me in future, partly for LC staff if they decide to base their install/Lesson on using the JDK t...

Re: Why is LiveCode not recognized more as an app developer language?

1. The list of 25 most-used mobile dev languages is not at all accurate. Name me a dozen mobile apps that are pure SQL. If that list was instead a list of "the 25 single languages with which pure mobile apps were built" then Livecode might well be on that list. Not blaming the person who posted the ...

Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

It is mystifying.

I googled "Android Studio" "Missing files" and there were a number of discussions on it (not related to Livecode). But that's not so surprising with a complex product being used for a decade or so. Various solutions were offered to people, often they didn't work.

Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

Jellobus, here are screenshots of my Configure / SDK options. Screenshot 2021-07-24 at 06.57.18.png Screenshot 2021-07-24 at 06.57.22.png So these are the options which resulted in that list of folders/files under /sdk/. Hopefully these screenshots provide you with some information that explains wha...

Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

LC doesn't really need Android Studio and it is unrelated to the Java problem. The problem is Jacque that LC Ltd have said that previous methods of configuring Android for LC are deprecated by LC Ltd . Installing/configuring Android Studio is the only route they discuss that is not deprecated. So t...

Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

Library/Android on my install only has /sdk/. It's within the /sdk/ folder that the needed tools are installed. Here's what is beneath /sdk/ for me: Screenshot 2021-07-24 at 07.12.06.png Does yours match this? I have to assume it doesn't since it seems LC gives you an error message when you select /...

Re: HTTPD Library - Capturing Form Data

I've never looked at the httpd library, but in the Dictionary it talks about METHODS, but only specifies GET. Then the final bullet point says that for url-encoded forms the array[content] will be empty, which suggests POST is not fully implemented. If running a httpd daemon on mobile is something y...

Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

OK. Then this suggests that your installation of Android Studio is incomplete. Android Studio (at least on OSX) installs files in two different places: in your Applications folder and in the Library folder (as seen in the SDK path). I think the lack of folders under /sdk means there are some compone...

Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

OK, so looks like your SDK is the same as mine. So almost certainly no missing files unlike the other person. So the field labeled "Location of Android development SDK root:" is empty in your Preferences pane? And when you bring up the file dialog by clicking the button marked "..." , you cannot cho...

Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

Sorry. That was my mistake. I'd run a 2nd command to check that Finder was showing the same sizes as the Terminal. I then pasted that command here by mistake. This is the command to show how many files there are beneath Android Studio. find . -type f | wc -l results in: 1712

Table of Missing Features

This may sound like someone denigrating LC, but that's not my intention. Considering that as a cross-platform app LC has 7 different "runtimes" (if we include Raspberry Pi) and not all features work on all runtimes (though it may be as high as 95% do work on all runtimes), wouldn't it be an idea to ...

Re: mobileSetKeyboardDisplay "pan"

I haven't seen this. But I did find a bug with

Code: Select all

mobileSetKeyboardDisplay "pan"
where fields which were panned would not receive keyboard input until after they were panned-down again. The bug is awaiting a fix.

Re: Levure build issues

Hi Bob I'm a huge admirer of the ideas Trevor has. I did once look at Levure and came across a bug in the code immediately. And that's not because I'm even half as smart as Trevor. The bug made itself manifest because Levure's code is written outside of LC's IDE so a syntax/spelling bug can exist th...

Re: Puzzled by LC 9.6.2 error

I understand your frustration. It could be that a bug was identified and fixed in LC post 8.10, and it's this fix that has "broken" your app. The best attitude in this situation is to remind oneself that one will know more about solving problems in code afterwards. Last week I spent a couple of days...

Re: SDK root & JDK path: None

Let's see if there are any missing files in Android Studio (the problem the other user had a couple of days ago). In Finder, Get Info should list Android Studio's detailed size as: 1,736,443,637 bytes In a terminal this command will count how many files are in and below Android Studio's top folder (...
