Re: mySQL connect and slowness experienced

Hi, [...] I just can not bear the response times and the slowness receiving data seem to be handled through the current LC 8.1.2 version and even putting the application into suspense mode all the time. This I couldn't get out of my head. So I had to test it myself. But before, the suspense problem ...

Re: Little How To? use PHP and PDO communication with MYSQL

Hi, Sphere is talking about an PHP extension/ API that has been declared deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore. Better explained here . So if you don't use PHP this isn't of much interest for you. Oracles owning of MySQL, the more political issues around it, and the resulting fork of MariaDB is a...

Re: mySQL connect and slowness experienced

Hi Hans, welcome! Working professionally with LiveCode & databases myself, I may be able to give a helpful hint to some topics. I'm sure others will come to provide a broader view. So I'll concentrate on the points in your post that "raised an eyebrow" when reading ;-) I am personally using Windows ...

Re: FTP upload for Android

Hi, I recently started making Android versions of some of my programs, and thought I had read somewhere that FTP upload is among the many common LC features still not yet implemented. Anyways, I found the time to do a small test (for something I need anyways ...): -- at first, I try a read/ update: ...

Re: Free simple tool for creating keystore file

Hi, thx for the quick reply! Well, just updated Android Studio (2.2.3 now), was quite old ;-) Updated to JDK 8u112 too, seems I missed some in between ... No difference - 0-Byte file as result. Livecode compiles the StandAlone (dev_signed) happily, and it runs on my tablet. Ah, forgot to mention tha...

Re: Free simple tool for creating keystore file

Hi, for some strange reasons it creates a 0-Byte file "releasekey.keystore" here, which, when used to sign a StandAlone-to-be, results in an error: There was an error saving the standalone application signing failed - keystore load: null Tested on 2 Machines running Win 10-64, LC (community) 6.7.10 ...

Re: How to distinguish between label and fields

Hi, I would add an unassailable distinction to label fields. That is going to either be a name convention or a custom property. Nothing else will be do with certainty, that will not possibly bite you down the road. Quoted for truth. "LockText" will bite you at the latest when you add any fields that...

Re: Max External File Size Limit?!?!

Hi, as I understand you have test data as .csv, and it's already 3.3GB? So it's to expect that the real data are a multiple of it? So 9GB as full data, and 18GB after 2 years, for instance? Remember, data tend to grow uncontrollable once they feel at home ... What I'd do: Import your data .csv into ...

Re: How to distinguish between label and fields

Hi, it's not set as default, but you can use the " cantselect " property to distinguish: it's the small lock icon in the project browser, and setting this (true) for labels & clearing it (false = default) for fields actually suits the common workflow - you rarely need to interact with a label in a f...

Re: Decisions!

Hi, the idea with a "launcher StandAlone" is great and versatile. Imagine a small size thing that has just one card, and a menu on it (or a few buttons). And, for sure, a bit of decoration ;-) This one contains your basic logic, mainly functions to read/ write preferences files, encryption functions...
