LiveCode Forums

I searched around, and it looks like I need to upgrade my OS.

After a nine and a half hour download of the xCode xip file, it will not expand, saying "The operation couldn't be completed. cpio read error: Undefined error: 0"

Has anybody else experienced this? Any suggestions of where to look for help?

Thanks!

Thank you Jean-Marc and Thierry!

I've been without a desktop Mac for quite awhile; I've been using my laptop for everything. I've just ordered a Mac Mini, which will be delivered in a few days. Meanwhile I'm about to update my Apple Developer Certificates and Provisioning Profiles. Are the Certificates and Profiles linked to a spec...

I've been away for awhile. What version of xCode should be used with LiveCode 8?

Is there a list posted and maintained somewhere that shows what versions of xCode work with what versions of LiveCode?

Thanks!

Hutch

Thank you!

Thank you, Tom, for the reply.

To underscore my "feature request" above...

How are we supposed to know these things? Are there announcements? Is "dig through the forums" the official method?

Thanks!

I can't build an iOS standalone under Xcode 7.2 I've tried it with LiveCode versions : 7.1 7.1.1 (RC4) 8.0.0-DP-12 | Build 13012 In all cases I get this error: In order to perform device builds, you must have the iOS SDK 9.1 or 8.2 or 8.4 configured. - iOS 9.1 comes with xCode 7.1 - iOS 8.2 comes wi...

I'm building a kiosk-like application. I'd like to have a QT movie looping in the background, with changeable text floating over it. Is there a way to put text on top of a player object?

Thanks!

Klaus, Wow... good eye! Thanks for spotting the greater-than-or-equal-to problem. I changed that, and it works as it should. Klaus and Bernd, Thanks for the heads up on "scrollbarDrag". I had seen it in the dictionary, but "mouseUp" was working well enough so I hadn't changed it. I didn't realize th...

Martin Sparkout was correct... .zip files are accepted. I've attached an archive containing two LiveCode files: "Reg Test.livecode" is just a button and a field , used to test the queryRegistry function "DMX Fan Test.livecode" is the project where I used the brute force method of finding the active ...

I tried to upload the livecode file, but got the error message "The extension livecode is not allowed."

I thought maybe they hadn't changed this since the name change, so I tried it with ".rev", but got the same error.

Seems odd.

I have a project with two sliders (scrollBar buttons), where the combined value of the two can't exceed 100. I've put this in the script of each (with the proper button name of course): on mouseStillDown if ((the thumbPosition of me) + (the thumbPosition of scrollbar "minRandom")) ≥ 100 then set the...

Success through brute force. I borrowed a Windows laptop and tested my project. It successfully gets the list of active serial drivers by looping through all 255 ports, opening each in turn, then checking the result. It then puts the list into a popup for selection: on doDriverList put empty into my...

Thanks for jumping in on this! deebee: I've put version of your code into my project, but I won't be able to test it until I meet again with a friend who has a windows machine. BTW... I added "close file tSerialCheck" after a successful open file. Martin: Your post got me thinking, so I searched the...
