LiveCode Forums.

I am using MacBook Pro, OS X, 10.10.5.

I was using LC 7.1 and was improving a working program which was working fine on desktop and had been compiling fine.

The next time I tried to compile to an apk file I got the following error:

" There was an error while saving the standalone application
could not compile application class"

I have tried the following steps to try to correct issue:

1. I made a new simple stack with just one button and tried to compile to apk, but got the same error.
2. I tried to compile and old file that I had not made any changes to that compiled fine before to apk, but got the same error.
3. I uninstalled LC 7.1 and reinstalled and tried to compile a simple stack to apk, but got the same error.
4. I restored my computer to a month before I ever had the problem and re-installed LC 7, but same error.
5. I installed LC 8 DP 10 and tried to compile a simple stack to apk, but got the same error.

I now have no idea of what to do, to be able to use LC again.

I hope someone can help me resolve this "Show Stopper",

I'm not sure how it works on OSX, but have you pointed LiveCode to the android SDK and the Java JDK?

Yes.

As I said, it had been working fine. There was a couple of times that LC got stuck in some sort of loop and I had to force the LC program to shut down and after that it would not compile any more stacks.

Thanks,

David

DR White, there was a small update recently to OS X. Right after installing it I began running into a very similar problem with my iOS app. Did you install that updated too? I was thinking it was due to some changes in LC 6.7.8 rc4 but you're not running that version so maybe I'm wrong.

Quailcreek,

You might be right. There was a small OS X update that was installed on my Mac and it was after that I started having problems.

GOOD NEWS!!!
I saw that LC 8 had to have Android GPI 15 and I did not have it installed.
After I installed the GPI 15 files and apparently other Android updates,
I could compile with LC 8 DP10, but I could not get my sound files to play.
I went back to LC 7.1 and "Low and Behold"!! my LC.1 now compiles without errors and sound files play like they should.

Thanks everyone for help,

David
