AW: How to deinstall LC?

2013-07-10 Thread Tiemo Hollmann TB
Hi Mark,
yes that definitely works to get rid of the program folder. I just was
wondering if it would be useful / recommended to get rid of supplementary
files, like preferences and things I don't know.

I don't have version going back that far, but since at least 4.6 LC was just
a single icon/app folder on the Mac, and I just trash that. Seems to work.

Re: App Failed to install - iPad app

2013-07-10 Thread Jim Sims
Gawd...took me hours for a simple thing/mistake.

Major clue from Colin was "Organizer window"

which led me to "Provisioning", stumbling in the dark.

Which then led me to Chipp's post at:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.ide.revolution.user/161402

Then I changed an "H" to an "h" and maybe (as all that stumbling might have 
done something else) it worked.

In the iPad and now testing.

Thanks Y'all.

Gawd.

Hi Scott,

Google math is great. It will even evaluate factorials up to about 170.  170! = 
7.257416e+306

Most calculators show an overflow beyond 60!

But Wolfram alpha will evaluate 300! = 
3.0605751221644063603537046129726862938858880417 × 10^614

And God knows how much further.

Live code doesn't have a factorial function.

I wrote one that works up to 170!  It uses the traditional iterative method 
below 60! and the Sterling approx beyond that.  Beyond 170! LC shows an  
overflow:


function fact n
   if n < 60 then
 return factorial (n)
   else
  put exp(1) into e
  return   ((n/e)^n) * (sqrt(2*pi*n)) --This is the Sterling approx.
   end if
end fact

function Factorial n
if n = 1 then
 return 1
  else
   return n * factorial(n-1)
end if 
end factorial

The “fiddling” you have to do in Xcode could hardly be easier, you just drag 
the app onto your connected device in the Organizer window.

Jacque’s thing doesn’t involve Xcode at all, it creates a bundle that can be 
installed over the air. You don’t need to have the device in the same 
continent, let alone connected, to your development machine.

Randy - Does Jacque's app require that you fiddle with Xcode also or does it do 
the job all on its own?

Re: App Failed to install - iPad app

2013-07-10 Thread Mark Wilcox
Sadly the install process is one where Apple believes in security through 
obscurity.  You get generic error messages for everything that goes wrong with 
no further debug info.

Make sure you have the correct device ID included in the provisioning profile 
you are using in the standalone settings, make sure it's a development or 
ad-hoc profile and not an app store distribution profile and make sure the 
"requirements and restrictions" set for the app match up with the ones 
configured for the app ID on the provisioning portal.

If it still doesn't work try taking a look inside the generated .ipa file to 
see if you can see anything obviously wrong.  After that there are some tools 
for checking the signing/certificates from the command line but best come back 
to ask about that if you're still stuck.

Hello - went through the Apple Dev process (Provisioning file made, Device IDs

The app started to install (appeared and blue line for installing) but before 
completed install it stopped with a dialog of "Failed to install"

App works in Simulator.

Any suggestions on how to debug this?

App Failed to install - iPad app

2013-07-10 Thread Jim Sims
Hello - went through the Apple Dev process (Provisioning file made, Device IDs 
added, etc) then added my test iPad app to the list of apps in iTunes.

The app started to install (appeared and blue line for installing) but before 
completed install it stopped with a dialog of "Failed to install"

App works in Simulator.

Any suggestions on how to debug this?

Nice one, Google.

If your on the Mac platform you can also use the spotlight search for 
simple calculations (e.g. 6*3, 1934+443). This has saved me a lot of time :)
