Re: LiveCode Standalone Application Not Working

Running from the command line gives no messages. It just immediately closes. I used ldd to list the dependencies, each ending with ".so.1" and ".so.6". Every dependency listed can be found in my /usr/lib and /lib directories. The only exception is linux-gate.so.1 which points to 0xffffe000 instead o...

LiveCode Standalone Application Not Working

I have been attempting to make a media center using an old tablet-like PC running SliTaz-JustX with a UI application I made in LiveCode to manage the media on an external drive slot. The problem is that the standalone I created will not run. It returns an error code 1 immediately on starting without...

Severe Memory Leak Problems

I have been playing around with images and files in LiveCode and have noticed some extremely severe memory leaks. It seems as though LiveCode likes to create new versions of variables when changing scope and then quickly lose the pointers to the previous versions, making them impossible to delete or...

Re: Initialization Error - failed to load external?

Same problem here. Even with all inclusions disabled the revdb.dll file persists as though it was selected for inclusion and the program crashes with an error if the dll is not there even though it was not directly included and will not be used. As far as I can tell, nothing can be done to prevent t...

Re: Problems with media files

Nevermind about the files not playing. It was just that my updater was not working and I was stuck at LC 7.0.0.

I'd still like the option of playing files located in memory instead of on disk, but that's probably not happening for some time.

Problems with media files

I was working on a project involving a cross-platform VHD-type file being run within a virtualized OS. My intention was to perform all functions internally (as in, not write out files from this virtual disk unless the user directly attempts to do so), but I am having serious problems with the video ...

Re: player looping problem

I apologize for reviving a very old thread, but this problem has yet to be solved. The player still pauses for a small time before restarting the loop even with uncompressed audio. I've tried to work around this and have made a command that mimics seamless looping, but it isn't very efficient. It wo...

Global Functions?

Is there any way to set a function as "global" so that it can be called from any handler in the same stack or subsequent substacks in similar fashion as global variables? There are other ways of doing a similar thing, but this would be very useful since I'd rather not change it to an "on ..." or nee...

Re: Some Windows Function Magic Here...

Thanks Simon. I just figured, if I knew how to do it in c++, and I didn't know how to make an "external" for LiveCode, I might as well make an extension process instead. There's really nothing to it. I decided to start putting my progress on here as I go because I'm sure there's someone out there wh...

Re: Some Windows Function Magic Here...

It's just one of those weekends when I don't have anything better to do than to play around with this... so here's some more stuff. I've added a few more functions and set it up to be called from inside the IDE without shell calls. The ".ext" executable I added works like a small, backgrounded exten...

Re: Some Windows Function Magic Here...

I jumped the gun a bit earlier. Here's another executable with a bunch more Windows API functions that might prove useful for anyone working on things that need them. Now you can access other programs' windows as well. You'd probably never need to use a most of them, but here they are anyway. Just r...

Some Windows Function Magic Here...

I'm still working on it, but I thought I might as well share what I have so far with others since this exists nowhere else online. Here's a small and very simple windows c++ executable I have been working on that allows you to lock programs to the desktop and/or modify the desktop workspace so that ...

Re: New keyword pixel?

Well it's good to know that it isn't entirely impossible to just change the image's pixels to what you want. In fact, this method doesn't sound all that bad and can be done fairly quickly with a repeat loop. Having the ability to just do "set pixel (x,y) of img "imageName" to (A,R,G,B)" would make t...
