porting example "Ticked Off" from Summer Academy

[minx]

Hello,
I'm not sure this is the correct place to post this. I've tried to port the "Ticked Off" sample from the Summer Academy to my Windows platform, and can't get the Map page to work. I've gotten it to successfully build in both Mac OSX and iPhone simulator, but not for Windows (I'm running on XP). Has anyone tried this?
Thanks,
Diane

Hi Diane,

That was a long time ago for me to remember any issues.

Bit more detail on what environment you are developing and IDE testing on
and building for and testing the build on.

And if the map is actually testing correctly.

I've got a TickedOff-Stage9.livecode
that the map is testing correctly
under Livecode IDE - WindowsXp32bit.

Don't know where the stage9 came from since the summer academy only had 7 seeks.

I did notice on initial execution of the map
an invalid address would return a light blue graphic and Not a map.

OK found the Completed Stage 6 sample.
Same. Working correctly under the same platform.

When actually building an executable for windows I also notice under
Standalone App Settings | General | Default Build Folder - had to be set to a valid window path.

Hi Barry,
I just tried it and it works now, where it didn't earlier. I double-checked to see if the default build folder was valid and it was. The one thing I changed, I had an icon file on a shared folder, and moved it locally to this build. But, I don't think it was that, I think it might've just been a bad build. Thanks so much for your reply, appreciate it!

LOL.

No prob.

I Just ran into that exact same issue of not running correctly - then running correctly with no explaination.
