LiveCode Forums.

Wow I've noticed that a passion for LiveCode (like love) stirs up strong emotions. The beauty you can find in code (and its execution) is comparable to the emotions you might feel when listening to music. My first experience (not romantic) was with a Commodore 64. I was a teenager, living in the cou...

I’m old enough to feel nostalgic for freeware and shareware.
Once I’ve swallowed the bitter pill of broken promises, I might console myself by making my projects available to everyone.
It’s hard to give up on your dreams

To be honest, I had a feeling this would happen. I won’t be switching to the new model, which, in my view, has lost its way. This forced change is holding hostage everyone who built a business on the previous business model. I’ll have to give up my dreams of ever commercializing my software. Maybe t...

Hello everyone,
What will happen to my “LiveCode Standard Plan,” which I signed up for through a promotional offer that guaranteed me the same rate: €111.78 per year?

Stam, I'm convinced that REGEX is a powerful tool that I need to add to my skill set.
Thanks for these links.
I'm putting ‘Exploring the power of REGEX’ on my to-do list.

I was really looking forward to putting your advice into practice. Nice, all three solutions work. I've adapted the jaque script a little to work directly in my search field. In the end, REGEX the Jaque way isn't so complicated. The pipe symbol is not beyond my skills. It's the simplest and most eff...

Whouaou

I've been away for a few days, so I'm delighted that my question didn't find Livecode's limits.
Too busy today to get back to coding, I'm saving myself a slot tomorrow to try out these solutions.

However, I hope that ‘REGEX’ won't give me nightmares tonight...

You're right, Craig. I'll have to rethink my strategy. My script systematically retrieves the original content in the custom Properties to apply the filter with each character entered. But that's not possible for a multi-criteria search. I'm going to think about a simple integration for the user, fo...

Hello Richmond62 ‘Rval’ is the value of what I want to search for in the datagrid rows. In your script, if my search value is ‘white’ I would get: PULPwhiteStrawberry Right ? In the dictionary, the ‘filter’ function offers the following options: * and ?, and others focused on individual characters. ...

Hi I'm trying to filter the lines in a data grid with a search field. The data of the data grid is stored in a custom property of the stack, and I put it in a variable "tBaseValue" for the filter. The variable "rval" is the content of the search field. My command is : filter lines of tBaseValue matc...

Thank you for these answers.
My goal is to use the test function on the device (iPhone 12 in my case) in Livecode.
I'm going to test it with the RC-3 version.
It's good news that iOS 18 integration is in the road map.

I continued my research on my own: 1 - It doesn't seem possible to install an older SDK on Xcode ( only the Device Simulator is available) 2 - The iOS SDK 17 version is available in Xcode 15, which is not compatible with Mac OS Sequoia. 3 - I find some hacks to install an unsupported version of the ...

Hello everyone I have a problem with the iOS SDK integration. I'm using Livecode 10 on Mac OS Sequoia 15.3.1 and Xcode 16.2. When I try to set the iOS SDK by pointing to Xcode, I get an error message: The chosen folder is not a valid iOs SDK. Selected Xcode must have an iOS SDK among: 14.4 15.2 16.2...

Code: Select all

put numToCodepoint(0xFEFF) before tVariable 
put textEncode (tVariable, "UTF-8") into URL ("binfile:" & tFilePath)

It works !!! Nice.
Thanks to all for your help

I don't know anything about how using a Mac would affect this, but have in the past used text files with BOM generated from LC on Windows to be read by TV station tricaster in RTL languages. I wonder whether the order of the steps of your file creation might be part of the issue? Just maybe put num...
