Re: Security Issue Related to Decompilation in LiveCode
What I mean is, using HTTP/HTTPS protocols makes it easy to debug using tools like Proxyman and Charles Proxy. However, I haven't found a tool that can read data streams when using port 22. Even with Wireshark, analysis is only possible up to the exchange of public and private keys. The encryption ...

Re: Saving as LiveCodeScript
Many years ago I wrote a stack to modify the revMenBar stack on the fly to make it horizontal, vertical, black, blue and sky-blue-pink. The revMenuBar is generated from a script-only stack: I should like to have a way where end-users of the LC IDE can modify the appearance of the revMenuBar so that...

Re: Saving as LiveCodeScript
That is part of what I meant. But, just as a script-only stack can create another stack with lots of controls, I want to know if one can reverse the process where a "stack with lots of controls" can be saved as a script-only stack in such a fashion that on that script-only stack being opened inwith...

LiveCode supports HTTPS, the most common solution for secure file retrieval and API calls.

Re: https://lessons.livecode.com/
LiveCode has a pretty good reputation for maintaining backward compatibility.
How much of the information in the Lessons has been invalidated by changes in later versions?
In my experience, on the rare occasion I spot one I just report it and the lesson gets updated in a reasonable time frame.

Re: Security Issue Related to Decompilation in LiveCode
I like that suggestion. Elevating this to a Lesson stands a better chance of helping new systems designers adopt industry practices.

Re: Security Issue Related to Decompilation in LiveCode
Anton, please help me understand the scope of risk. The request is to shorten the length of time in which a decrypted variable remains in memory. It's understood that the duration cannot be zero, since the unencrypted form must be used during at least one moment. A potential attacker would need phys...

Re: get name of flashdrive.
Does Windows now identify volumes by name rather than letter designation?

Re: A quick compliment for the livecode team
Vendor lock-in is desirable to shareholders, but not to customers, particularly enterprise. AppleTalk was dropped in favor of TCP long ago. AOL, CompuServe, GENIE, eWorld...all gave way to the open web. Even today's social media is diversifying, with the closest thing to an emerging common ground be...

Re: A quick compliment for the livecode team
The product name? That was the pattern at the time. Apple bundled useful tools, but in those days intentionally stopped short of making truly feature-rich apps, leaving the market open for third parties. It was a new platform and Apple made their money on hardware, so they worked hard to bring in th...

Re: A quick compliment for the livecode team
For the sake of completeness, a tip of the hat across the fullness of time: gratitude for LC carrying the xTalk torch into the 21st century, and to Bill Appleton's World Builder, the first scriptable multimedia authoring tool for Mac, released in 1986. Appleton later went on to make Course Builder, ...

Re: Hide tooltip instantly?
@ stam : yes, I had considered this kind of solution but I feared a long execution time knowing that I have 96 controls and access to control properties is rather slow. You might be surprised. I've done a LOT of performance and stress testing of the engine over my decades of relying on it, and I'd ...
