POST command and Previous Request Not completed
Hi friends, I have a little understanding problem. 8-) Say we have some POST commands and fire them one after another. Now according to the docs, the POST command is blocking, so we should NOT see the error dialog Previous Request Not completed“ any time, right? But under some (mysterious) circumstances we actually do, what am I missing? Thanks a lot for any insight!

Hi David, If you do put true into gRevDevelopment in the message box you'll find break points are honoured and you can also use the contextual menu to find the function you're looking for.

That breakpoints don't affect the IDE by default makes good sense, and the gRevDevelopment global is a useful flag for that. However, as long as the IDE scripts are available without it never made sense to make it cumbersome to navigate those handlers by disabling the Go To Definition item in the context menu. Thankfully that was fixed, and I can confirm that as of 6.7.6/7.0.6 we no longer need to set gRevDevelopment just to use the Go To Definition item: http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10722 -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

POST will keep the handler it is in from continuing but another handler could start executing with a send in time call. I wish it were so easy. I have a button which toggles between opening a record for editing and saving a record. When opening for editing it uses GET, and for saving it uses POST. When I click the button quickly in success while it's in Save mode, it initiates the post but then queues the GET too close behind, perhaps even before POST is done, and then libURL goes into an odd state complaining about certs it otherwise has no problem with. I'll see if I can get some time to assemble a simple demo stack and submit a bug report, but in short I believe Klaus is onto something, that POST is only blocking in some very specific ways that are difficult to identify and anticipate. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: POST command and Previous Request Not completed
I have a couple curiosity questions re: post. The dictionary (7.0.5) has the following Note: The Android and iOS engines do not support 'libUrl' but allow you to use post in the background. [...] Does anyone have an example of using post in the background on mobile? Is there a callback message involved? I was also wondering if there is a way to use the load command to post.. And if so, would this allow multiple quick post requests, with callback to be done? On Sat, Jun 20, 2015 at 12:45 PM, J.

RE: iOS not liking specialFolderPath(Preferences)
When an application is installed on a phone (or in the simulator) a number of initial folders are created for use by the application. You can locate the paths to these folders using the specialFolderPath() function with the following selectors: • home – the (unique) folder containing the application bundle and its associated data and folders • documents – the folder in which the application should store any document data (this folder is backed up by iTunes on sync) • cache – the folder in which the application should store any transient data that needs to be preserved between launches (this folder is not backed up by iTunes on sync) • library – the folder in which the application can store data of various types. In particular, data private to the application should be stored in a folder named with the app's bundle identifier inside library. (this folder is backed up by iTunes on sync). • temporary – the folder in which the application should store any temporary data that is not needed between launches (this folder is not backed up by iTunes on sync) • engine – the folder containing the built standalone engine (i.e. the bundle). This is useful for constructing paths to resources that have been copied into the bundle at build time. In general you should only create files within the documents, cache, and temporary folders. Indeed, be careful not to change or add any files within the application bundle. The application bundle is digitally signed when it is built, and any changes to it after this point will invalidate the signature and prevent it from launching.
