Not 100% sure, but if it's a dynamic linked lib then maybe try putting the foreign lib in Your_LCB_Project_Folder/code/x86_64-mac/

Since I've been reviving zombie posts, and reading many of the down-the-rabid-hole conversations they inspired months ago, I thought I'd share my experience in making a custom keyboard of sorts on macOS in LiveCode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_knX8mJg1c In this video I'm playing the alpha...

The OP left the room after his first post here, two months ago.

I know, I needed a break from working and I was bored/perusing the boards and just wanted to throw in my 0.5 cents.

I always think these sort of statements about missing some crap like "parameter context matching" or "lambda functions" come from nerd-elitists. Many of the rest of the OP makes me think the OP isn't as familiar with LC has they clam, as well as the history (the creation JavaScript was inspired by H...

I wouldn't worry about any confusion with that "LiveCodeShare" Android App:

I'm trying to set up some callback handlers in LCB/FFI ... some of these things are looking to receive a context object pointer. I'm not exactly sure what this means. I've looked it up on the web and in several books about Objective C and it's still not clear to me what this is looking for to have p...

I wasn't referring so much to the lib e OS version, as to the fact that the "LC way" should not be betrayed. If I have 2 TTS libraries, one for OSX/Win and one that I am building for iOS/Android, why don't unify them with the same commands and functions names? How can a newbie make sense of it? And...

I would be interested on your comment on my last post, regarding the new speech library introduced with LC9.6.0Dp3. https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=33805&start=15 you could always take a stab at building your own library for AVSpeechSynth in LiveCode Builder. Anyway, Simon and you p...

I would be interested on your comment on my last post, regarding the new speech library introduced with LC9.6.0Dp3. https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=33805&start=15 My comment would be similar to LC Mark's reply, if you have Indy or better LC edition I would try moving a copy of the 9...

So here's a crash-log from that other callback that's crashing (CoreMIDISetupChangedCallbackProc): Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS) Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x00007ff9447cb680 Exception Note: EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY VM Regio...

Hmmm... could you flush specific messages from the queue rather than brute-forcing it, i.e., leave the callback messages in place? Yeah, that would be a better way to flush messages to stop the check loop, but now that I know what the problem was I just moved the too-early flushing to later in the ...

OK, I think I figured it out for the AVMIDIPlayerStopped calback and it was actually two things going on. 1) I had RetainedIds where I shouldn't have (which I guess was sometimes making Zombie player objects?) 2) My test stack has a "Stop" button that stoppeds an LCS position-check loop and flushes ...

@PaulDaMacMan: I've taken a quick look at the AVMidi code... I wonder if: private foreign handler objC_AVMIDIPlayerAlloc() returns ObjcRetainedId binds to "objc:AVMIDIPlayer.+alloc" private foreign handler objC_AVMIDIPlayerCurrentPosition(in pAVPlayerRef as ObjcRetainedId) returns NaturalFloat bind...

Hmmm looks like it could be because you are deleting the block pointer too soon - can you post your code? That's what I was leaning towards, a zombie object somewhere, but I've tried moving it to various spots within the code, still haven't figured it out. This is the main chunk of code that I've b...

Just to let you know - we've taken the code which was hashed out on Gitter, cleaned it up, commented it and it will be included in the objc module from 9.6-DP-3 (PR is here: https://github.com/livecode/livecode/pull/7291 ). We've now used this code internally on both macOS and iOS so are reasonably...
