Re: Still looking into HTML5 app

Yup. Reading the release notes from 9 RC1 can help you to decide.
If it means anything...I'm pushing forward with a HTML5 Web Application
Project based on what I read here and tested in latest DP release

Re: LC 9 and Icon Families

[Brian Milby via use-livecode]

I wrote a stack that does something similar.  Mine was geared toward
importing a folder of SVG icons.
http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=10=30411

There's also a copy on my web site that includes a whole bunch of icons:

Most of the icons came from:

Re: code signing cost

[Knapp Martin via use-livecode]

Coding signing certificates are priced on a per-year basis, not per app or 
signing instance. I get my Windows code signing certificates from kSoft - the 
certificates themselves are from Comodo and you can get anything from 1 to 5 
years (the more years, the cheaper per year) - at least that last time I 
purchased.

Re: code signing cost

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

???

Tom,

you pay for  a code signing certificate for one year and can use that 
certificate then for signing as many windows programs,Dlls and so on as you 
want. After that year your signed apps are still working, but you have to renew 
your certificate if you want to sign new apps.

And 84USD for a code signing certificate is not much.

Well, I, for one, deploy my English as a Foreign Language content

NOT a reason to keep 32 bit versions for LiveCode 9.

LC 9 and Icon Families

[Devin Asay via use-livecode]

Hi folks,

Couldn’t resist spending some time on the new RC of LC 9. One of the cool new 
features is the ability to add icon families to your instance of LiveCode. 
Using the release notes and the dictionary I worked out how to create and add 
new icon families. This finally makes it possible to use your own custom icons 
in a Nav bar widget, for example.

Try out my stack here (enter in message box):

  go stack URL "https://asay.byu.edu/stacks/IconFamilyMaker.livecode;

Enjoy!

I have just heard this is a no-go, so never mind. On the other hand, I'm 
still curious about the capabilities of HTML5. It isn't clear yet what 
it can and can't do, particularly with more complex multi-stack apps. It 
would be useful to know what stays in RAM, how stack navigation, 
libraries, and shared resources are managed, that sort of thing.

Re: iOS cached Screen Flashes after Splash Image

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

That is exactly what I am seeing Colin. I use Dashlane, which has it's own 
built in browser. When I navigate away from one site and back again, I get a 
brief time where the cached page displays, even though the connection has timed 
out, and then it takes me back to a login page for that site. I think this is a 
device specific issue. If a user is used to this, I don't think it is a 
problem, unless of course the last time the site was visited, the user was 
viewing confidential data. Then it could be extremely critical!

RE: iOS cached Screen Flashes after Splash Image

[Ralph DiMola via use-livecode]

Hey Colin,

Hope your well

It's still open in the background. It's not exiting on suspend. When the app is 
still open in the background there is no problems switching between apps. When 
the user swipes it off after the double press of the home button and then 
re-opens the app is when this cached page is flashed in between the splash page 
and the first card. I would think that the thumbnail you see after the double 
press of the home button would be the image that flashes. In many cases it is 
but not all, maybe 50-50 between the thumbnail and the some random card from 
the past. I was looking for an app bug until the user said that one of the 
flashed images had an answer dialog opened. If you reinstall the app it still 
happens. If you uninstall/reinstall the app it still happens. If you uninstall 
the app then re-boot the device and then reinstall it does not happen the first 
launch. Then if you swipe the app off and then reopen it's sometimes OK the 
first few launches then after 3 or so launches it's back other times it starts 
after the first time you swipe it off. The happens on Pandora and Google maps 
also on my iPad mini but they are fine on my old iPad 2.

I have seen something like you’re describing with other apps, not LiveCode 
ones. iOS 11 has a new way of doing app switching, and that uses a different 
snapshot of the apps. Are you letting your app quit on suspend, or is it still 
open in the background? I can imagine cases where someone switches apps and 
will get the last app switching image iOS 11 kept. That is bound to be 
different if the app quit on suspend.

Re: Release 9.0.0 RC-1

[Dave Kilroy via use-livecode]

Well done all of you at LiveCode!

RC-1 looks great and a 'great leap forward' from 8 (which was itself a great
leap forward etc...)

I don't have enough time to have a good play with it at the moment but am
looking forward to doing so :)

BTW, in the last week using 9.0.0-dp11 I've built and submitted the same app
twice for iTunesConnect, and apart from the usual annoying warning messages,
the app sailed though the Apple Review process (and uploaded .apks to Google
Play as well). In short, dp11 was stable for me and just fine for deploying
as well as development. 

Kind regards

Dave

RE: iOS cached Screen Flashes after Splash Image

[Ralph DiMola via use-livecode]

It's interesting that the user never had this problem until last week even
on apps that have not changed. I wonder if the Apple speed throttling has
anything to do with it. The user loaded some app that shows if throttling is
in effect and his speed is now reduced by .1 mhz. I wonder if this became a
problem on older devices since Apple introduced as "App Thinning/Slicing."

I'm getting a very strange complaint from one user who has an older  
iPhone 5 running iOS 11.2. When the app opens it briefly flashes the  
last screen that was up before the app was closed. This happens in  
between the splash page and the app's first card. The page flashed  
page sometimes even has an "answer" dialog from a previous session!  
I can't replicate it on any of my 3 iOS devices. I also noticed that  
Pandora and Google Maps does the same thing on my iPad Mini but on  
my iPad or iPod. The user has two other non-LC apps that are doing  
the cached flashing. All of the user's other apps except for LC apps  
and two others don't exhibit the flashing behavior. I'm wondering if  
the Apple throttle-back for older batteries is exposing: a problem  
with LC(and other apps), an iOS bug or their device need a factory  
reset. The last thing I want to do is have the user factory reset  
their iPhone and have the same thing happen. Could this be an Apple  
bug for testers that side load many versions of apps? This user has  
side-loaded many versions to test. Then I had download a store  
version of the app that never did it before and it's now happening  
but never did before. I find it very strange that apps that never  
did this are now acting strangely. I find very little in web  
searches on this subject. The few hits I've seen were mainly Safari  
a couple of years ago and a one or two non native Xcode "app  
building" platforms.

Release 9.0.0 RC-1

[panagiotis merakos via use-livecode]

Dear list members,

We are pleased to announce the release of LiveCode 9.0.0 RC-1.


Getting the Release
===
You can get the release at https://downloads.livecode.com/livecode/ or via
the automatic updater.


Release Contents

LiveCode 9.0.0 RC-1 comes with more than 95 bugfixes. Moreover, more than
20 bugfixes that were fixed in LiveCode 8.1.x, are now merged into LiveCode
9.0.0 RC-1.

In addition, LiveCode 9.0.0 RC-1 includes several new features:

- Native HTML5 button widget
- LCB: new "my pixel scale" expression
- Improved SVG support
- Updated detailed guide on "Extending LiveCode"


Known issues

- The Browser widget's native layer is not shown in some Linux distros with
Cinnamon window manager.
- You might not be able to run HTML5 standalones locally using the most
recent version of Safari or Chrome (Firefox is OK). This is due to those
browsers now prohibiting cross-origin-requests. To test out standalones
locally using these browser, we suggest using a local HTTP server as
described in the HTML5 deployment guide. However, this will not be a
problem if you use the new HTML5 deployment library, which does this for
you: You just have to choose one of the installed browsers (click on the
"Development -> Test Target" menu item), and then click on the "Test"
button.
- When loading a new widget in the Extensions Builder and clicking "Test",
the widget does not appear. Clicking "Test" again fixes the problem.
- Regarding the Tilecache refactor (the final part of the Datagrid 2
project), it was decided that it was too invasive to include at this stage
in 9.0, so we are working hard to put it out in a 9.1 DP as soon as
possible.

The full release notes are available from:

http://downloads.livecode.com/livecode/9_0_0/LiveCodeNotes-9_0_0_rc_1.pdf


Feedback

Please report any bugs encountered on our BugZilla at
http://quality.livecode.com/

We have a forum available for discussing LiveCode Builder at
http://forums.livecode.com/viewforum.php?f=93


==

Have you migrated your project to LiveCode 9? If not, then now is the time,
with all these amazing features added to LC 9 so far:


1. New libraries added:

- Amazon Web Services (AWS) Library
- Android Audio Recorder Library
- Android Background Audio Library
- Command-line Option Parser (getopt) Library
- Dropbox Library
- HTTPD Library
- Message Authentication Library
- MIME Library
- OAuth2 Library
- Object Repository Library
- QR Code Generator Library
- Time zone Library
- Toast Notification Library
- Unified Diff Library
- Remote Debugger Library (available in the Business Edition)
- Script Profiler Library (available in the Business Edition)
- Secure Key Storage Library (available in the Business Edition)

2. New Widgets added:

- Spinner Widget
- Android Native Button Widget
- Android Native Field Widget
- iOS Native Button Widget
- Mac Native Button Widget
- Mac Native Field Widget

- Signature Widget (available in the Indy and Business Edition)
- Map Widget (available in the Indy and Business Edition)

3. Added support for foreign function interface (FFI) in LCB, which can be

bind to foreign handlers, so in other words you can wrap functions in C,
Objective C and Java and call them directly from LiveCode. Moreover, it
gives you the ability to include dynamic libraries in extensions and bind
to their functions.

4. New IDE features added, in various IDE components, for example:

- Enhanced contextual menus, allowing you to access and edit behaviors
- Extended drag-and-drop support to stackfiles
- Enhanced resizable Property Inspector, allowing to access more properties
- SVG support
- Enhanced DataGrid object with native scrollers, edit mode swipe actions
and drag reordering
- Enhanced Script Editor with autocomplete, live errors, bracket completion
and more
- Optimised Search in Script Editor
- Enhanced Project Browser with many keyboard shortcuts, ability to flag
scripts that have errors, as well as showing up to 10 nested behaviors.
- New HTML5 deployment library, allowing you to test your HTML5 standalone
directly from the IDE, using the "Test" button of the LiveCode menubar.


5. New engine features added, including:
- Added missing create syntax forms
- Expanded range of 'random()' to 53-bits
- Added new set ops and into form
- Added a recordFormats function
- Added messageDigest() function with SHA2 and SHA3 support
- Enabled NFC tag reading on Android
- Added maximum text length property for a native iOS field
- Implemented "do ... as javascript" in html5 engine
- Removed size limitation for creating graphics
- Added support for showing widgets in HTML5 standalones.
- Added support for HTML5 windowing: This allows tooltips, dialogs, and
pop-up menus to work within the HTML5 engine. 

Re: TSNet updated to include PUT and PATCH

[Charles Warwick via use-livecode]

Hi Todd,

You can use the tsNetCustom* functions to issue any HTTP(S) request type you 
require (including PATCH and PUT).  The tsNetUpload* functions are also 
effectively just a PUT request when using the HTTP(S) protocols.

Let me know if you need any more info.

Cheers,

Charles

Re: [OT] Free tool for ease Windows Installer creation

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

Thanks to all for your kind words.



@Tom,
> tool...where would it source the certificates? and how much?

I am sorry, i don´t understand the question. 
Do you want to know where you can buy the Software Signing Certificate for 
Windows?
The cheapest Seller i´ve found is K-Software (http://codesigning.ksoftware.net 
).
They are selling genuine Comodo products and a Software Signing certificate 
cost about 84USD for 1 year. It´ll be even cheaper if you purchase it for 2, 3 
or 4 years..
They even provide a very easy tool for CodeSigning for free called kSign. It 
has a GUI is really very easy to use.  I am using this tool for manually 
signing my Windows apps now for about 4 years.


@All
The upcoming code signing option in InstaMaker will only code sign the 
Installer, not the programs you´ve created the installer for.
For code signing in InstaMaker Microsofts signtool.exe will be used. 

So at the moment the steps for code signing a Windows app and creating a signed 
Installer for it would be
1. Sign the Windows app and all externals using kSign.exe or Signtool.exe
Btw: the externals of a LC standalone are write protected for whatever reason. 
You´ll have to disable the write protection before code signing. Otherwise the 
externals can not signed

2. Create the Installer with InstaMaker

3. Code Sign the Installer.


When InstaMaker has  code signing support, then 

1. Sign the Windows app and all externals using kSign.exe or Signtool.exe

2. Create an Installer with InstaMaker and sign it automatically.

So you´ll have to code sign your Windows program in any case first if you want 
to have your app also be code signed, then you can use InstaMaker to create an 
Installer and also code sign that installer after creation. 

But as i wrote, i need some spare time for it. But i will come.

Regards,

Matthias

Re: OT: Can’t download file

[Graham Samuel via use-livecode]

Thanks, but it ain’t the FTP aspects that worry me, since my uploads via FTP 
always work using normal FTP clients: it’s the straight download from a 
publicly available web site. I’ve achieved this with binary files before (for 
example, with Mac installers), but now I have been bitten by this permissions 
thing. I have asked our hosting company about it. I obviously did something new 
and wrong, I just can’t work out what it was.

Re: [OT] Free tool for ease Windows Installer creation

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

Hi Monte,

thanks for the hint. Unfortunately i am relatively new to git in common. So if 
you could give me a hint/link where i could find that stuff. That would be 
great.

TSNet updated to include PUT and PATCH

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello Charles and LC community,

As we start to use more JSON databases and REST APIs, we are going to need
to get HTTPS PATCH. This is a commonly used function used by many REST
services.

We are currently doing Google Firebase for LiveCode and they make extensive
use of PATCH. We can get by with just POST, but we would prefer if we could
get PUT and PATCH on mobile.

Is there any plan at all on the roadmap??

Re: [OT] Free tool for ease Windows Installer creation

[Monte Goulding via use-livecode]

Good stuff Matthias

InstallGadget was a handy little thing for a while there so I’m sure this will 
equally so. There’s some DMG wrangling code in the livecode repo that we use 
for building the mac installer if you are interested.

Cheers

Monte
