Error code parser?

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good afternoon,

I posted a questions about a week ago about a Windows standalone that was
producing errors when trying to compile it in LC 7.1.  Doing more research
online I saw that there used to be a website that would explain some of the
data that is returned from the error message box.

It seems like that website does not exist anymore.

How do I diagnose what this error message means? I am desperate to get this
thing compiled and running.

How to figure out what is causing a standalone to fail during compile

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

I have a Windows standalone that is failing to compile for some reason.

The error message that LC gives me has quite a bit of info but none that
seems useful.  Is there any log file or anything more detailed I can
examine to figure out why it is failing?  If I can figure anything out from
it, it appears it fails on:

revCopyScriptLibraries
AND
revCreateStandalone

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

Detailed system information

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good afternoon,

Has anybody created a script to get detailed information from the user in a
standalone so that it can be sent back for debugging?

Out of the box I am only finding "systemInformation" and "the platform"

I would love to get many more details such as (on a Windows machine) the
version of the operating system, browsers installed and versions of those,
etc.

I was about to start writing code to dig into the registry but I thought I
would ask here first.

Thank you!

Windows standalones not closing properly

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Has anybody noticed that when you build a standalone now for Windows, if
you click the native "X" to close out the application, it looks like it is
gone, however it continues to run in the background and has to be killed
using the Task Manager?

They has been happening for the past few releases and I have ignored it and
begun to program around it thinking it would be fixed but it continues to
be an issue for me.

Is anybody else having this issue?

XML Error - No Data To Process

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good afternoon!

I have an desktop (windows) application that has been running fine for
about a year.  It is a simple tool that reaches out to an API and retrieves
some XML back in return.

Today I needed to go in and change an authorization token for it to talk
properly to the API.  I created the standalone but when running the exe
file I get:
"No data to process. Error : xmlerr, bad document id"

It runs fine in on the development side, just not the compiled, executable
side.  I made sure I had revxml.dll in the externals folder of the
standalone thinking that was the issue but it wasn't.

Any ideas??

Access to antenna signal data

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good afternoon LC'ers,

Is it possible to access raw data from the antenna of the phone.  I am
trying to gauge incoming and outgoing signal strength at a precise level
and immediately thought of using LC to accomplish this task.  Having said
that, I am not sure this is something that is available to us... maybe
through one of Monte's miraculous extensions?

Any guidance, one way or another, is always appreciated.

It seems like their authentication process actually loads a webpage and
then redirects the user to another redirected, specified web location.  I
am just trying to retrieve (read-only) data from individual athletes.
Maybe I am missing something here.

Re: Business Application Framework

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Here is the email arriving from Kevin yesterday... Subject: Something Big


I want to improve your business, your cash flow, and your development work.

To do this, we launched a new Business Application Framework. This
framework brings object-oriented programming to LiveCode, is compatible
with GIT and other version management systems, and allows you to do your
LiveCoding work in teams. Go ahead, do a happy dance.

We're also introducing the new Business License with bolt-on features.

Business License bolt-ons include Guaranteed 2 Business Day Email
Support, Business Application Framework, Data Synchronization
Framework, Priority Bug Fix, Phone Skype Hotline Access, and PDF Viewer.

When you purchase a new Business License, you receive credits with which
you can purchase Business bolt-ons.

*If you purchase the Business License now, you will receive 20 bolt-on
tokens (Most major bolt-ons will start at 10 tokens. However, some bolt-ons
may be available for as little as one token). This offer will not last
forever and when it ends, each Business License will only come with 10
bolt-on tokens. You can, of course, purchase additional tokens at any time.*

For an additional cost, you can access exclusive rights to our Services,
including Hack Days, Priority Feature Add, Code Reviews, and Code
Documentation Services, to name a few.

*You can read more about the new Business License and purchase it with 20
tokens here:*

https://livecode.com/products/livecode-platform/livecode-for-business/


Our goal with our new business features and benefits is to empower you to
leverage the productivity and ease-of-use advantages that you enjoy with
LiveCode across much larger projects. As a provider of an amazing tool, we
want to become your trusted partner and be there to ensure your entire app
development experience is a huge success.

I look forward to working together.

Force window on second display

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

A bright good morning and a happy Friday to all you LC'ers,

Is there a way to force a standalone on a second connected display?  This
is for a retail environment where I am sending data and info to a customer
standing on the other side of a counter viewing a secondary monitor.  I
want this to be automated so that if the computer is rebooted and the
application is launched, the employee does not have to drag the LC
application window to the other screen.

Thank you, as always, for your input!

Struggling with native iOS text input

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good morning LC'ers,

I am struggling with native iOS text input fields.  Can anybody lead me to
some working examples so I can get my app cranking?

I took a look at a resource online but it does not seem to work.
http://lessons.runrev.com/m/4069/l/29112-how-do-i-use-native-text-controls-on-mobile

As a matter of fact, it seems to have some of the same issues that I have
when trying to implement the native text field through tmControl2.  Maybe
something to do with a newer release of LC and some different coding I need
to do?

Using LC 7.0.6

Any guidance is ALWAYS appreciated!

Font issue with Win8 and LC

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

I have a strange issue where when I go to print a card, some of the text
fields get truncated. This only seems to happen when the fields are right
justified.  I have tried a few things to "fudge" alignment but in the end,
that is really not how I need to do it.

Anybody experienced this before?  I am using Windows 8 and LC 7.0.6

I need the ability to tap into an Exchange Server account and grab text /
attachments from emails sitting in that account.

Can anybody think of a way to do that via LC?  I know it is a stretch...

Update SQLlite in app

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good afternoon,

If I have an app in the App store and I want to update the SQLite db with a
modified db that I place on my web server, am I able to do that or does
Apple have some type of restrictions to prevent / discourage that method.

It boils down to wanting to update the data in my app without the need to
push a full blow app update to the store.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated!

Caching issue on iOS

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good morning,

I am having an issue refreshing data on an iOS device.  Works fine on
desktop.  The goal is to retrieve data from a text file on the server.  A
"refresh" button should get the new data but on mobile it just keeps
displaying the same data.  If I get out of the app and come back into it,
it indeed refreshes.

Here is what I am using to get the data from the server:
   put  "http://myserver.com/myfile.txt"; into tURL

>From there I am processing what is in tURL.

I have tried clearing tURL, unloading tURL, clearing cache, etc.

Any ideas? Some other method that only applies to iOS or mobile?

Problems with encrypt / decrypt on ios

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good morning,

I am trying to decrypt a text file that exists on my server.  In the
development environment it works just fine.  On an iOS device, it returns
empty. To accomplish this I am using:
decrypt vText using  "blowfish" with PassCode at 128 bit

I have made sure that "Encryption" external option is checked on my iOS
applications settings.  In doing a little bit of research online, somebody
else has posed this questions and it was supposedly fixed in LC 6.6.

I am running 7.0.5 and Xcode 6.3.1

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Reducing the size of Windows standalone

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Hey LC'ers,

My standalone file sizes have almost doubled / tripled since version 7.  Is
this all due to Unicode additions?  I have a file that always used to be
3mb and now is climbing to 9mb with no additions to the coding.

Just seems like quite a jump in size.

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Is there a way to have LC sitting in the background (not hidden, just not
in focus) and keep track of items put in the clipboard?  I want to simplify
some complex cutting and pasting of multiple fields.  I can get the
mechanics of it to work if I can get LC to sit in the background and record
clipboard entries.

Re: Livecode <=> SQL?

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Everybody that has responded to this thread that are pitching their
products, let me clarify back to Eric that knowledge of SQL is important to
if you want to make the impossible, possible.  The sky is the limit when
you have full knowledge of SQL and take advantage of its server side
scripting and other server based features.  HOWEVER, I think I own every
one of the products mentioned for sale and I use them ALL... Each tool has
its own unique advantages and purposes.  I am, by no means, suggesting
bypassing the thought of purchasing any of these.

To close, I am really, really looking forward to getting my hands on Pete's
SQL Magic.  He teased us with it at RunRev this last year and more than
ready to start playing with it.  Something to look forward to in the near
future.

Re: ios beep

I actually had a running app that used a path but it stopped working.  Went

"vibrate." When Beep is called, all execution stops.

Re: [ANN] mergAV 4, mergBanner 2 & iOS 8.3 builds

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Is it updated on the public document side?  I do not have access to the
backend, downloadable version as I need to renew my subscription so maybe
that is where the disconnect is.

I am looking at the online documentation for mergAV but do not see any
reference to the bar coding capabilities?!?

I am very interested in playing around with this as ZXing worked will but
had a few caveats around it.

Re: WatchKit

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Roger,

I did... thank you.  Very interesting conversation and I will be interested
to see how strong developers (outside of LC) latch onto the WatchKit and
develop apps for it.  I think it will be one of those make or break
elements for Apple.

I am interested, however, in digging more into the AdroidWear arena and see
what can be done with that.

Re: [ANN] New Version of the MasterLibrary is available

Never mind.  I didn't realize you had to "check" the box next to the
function you wanted to insert.  I thought by clicking on it and loading it
into the examples / notes screen was good enough.

So in short, I was able to make it work.  Sorry for the confusion!

Question: When I try to "insert script" after choosing the target stack I
always get "Do you really want to set the Library Scripts of stack Untitled
1 to empty"  After I choose Yes, the dialog box goes away nothing appears
to have happened.  Obviously my test stack is "Untitled 1" but I am

curl -G -H "api_key: A28894762098BJTEST"
https://api.myapi.com/test/v1/products
--data-urlencode 'q={"cat_id":12345,"brand":"My Brand","model":"My Model"}'

I am sure there is a way to do this from within LC. The results come back
as JSON, which I can deal with.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Datagrid in Standalone

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Good afternoon,

I have a strange problem and cannot isolate where it is coming from.  I
have a datagrid that is being populated via an array from Andre's DBLib.  I
know data is in the array because if I check the number of lines in the
keys of the array, it is correct.

In the development environment, the datagrid populates just fine! However,
in a Windows standalone it does not work, almost as though no data is in
the array, which is not true.  To populate the datagrid, I am using:
set the dgdata of control "DivisionData" to tDataA

All seems correct, I have used this method before, I just don't understand
why this instance is not working properly.  Anybody have any insight of
what might going wacky here? (other than me)

Thank you for your input!

Re: Getting a version number

I thought I was missing something but it looks like this is a challenge.
Just for clarification purposes, it a standalone for Windows.

Having said that I am really surprised that there is not a script call of
some sort to retrieve this information.  Hopefully there is an undocumented
function that somebody with show up with here on this list.

Re: Merging PDF files through LC

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

I took a total left turn here in my solution and I wanted to share the
results.  My problem spawned from reports I was creating from Excel and a
series of data that needed to be produced for different store locations at
our company.  However, each store needed a consolidated view as well.  Last
week, when I created these reports each store ended up receiving two
separate PDF files due to this complication.

I had been using Zryip's Excel Lib to populate these spreadsheets and then
using his print to PDF feature to create these documents.  After explaining
my problem to him he wrote a function to help me out that hides Excel
workbook sheets before the printing process.  My template now has the
overall statistics on sheet 1 and all other store locations in additional
tabs.  This allows me to produce a combined PDF file based upon which
sheets I want to expose and customized for each location.

Thank you Zyrip!

Re: Merging PDF files through LC

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

>From the looks of it, you only need to have two files to get it to work
from the command line: pdftk.exe and libconv2.dll  (found in the PDFtk
Server /bin directory after install)

Getting it to work, probably not that hard.  Distributing it with your
application, that's a whole other issue.  I have been looking over the
command line options for this and it is pretty powerful.  One feature that
stands out the most to me is the ability to send form data to the PDF
file.  Something I have wanted but LC has yet to be able to supply a
streamlined way of doing this.

In regards to distribution:

As stated in the README file from PDFtk:
"If you want to distribute pdftk as part of your own software, you will
need a commercial license. The exception to this rule is if your software
is licensed to the public under the GPL or another compatible license."

"Commercial licenses are available for pdftk. They include commercial-grade
support and allow commercial redistribution. Please email
sid.stew...@pdflabs.com to learn more. And please include pdftk in your
email subject. Thank you. "

Anybody know of a way (on Windows) to merge two PDF documents together via
scripting?

Any insight would be helpful if you have done this before.

Thank you!

Sorry... it contains letters.  Sorry for the confusion.  I should have been

Re: Regex Help

The middle item "X" does not always have a number in it.  The common
denominator between all the items I WANT to keep start with "page-" and end
with "-landed.html"

Re: Regex Help

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Thanks Mark,

Actually look for the regex version as I will be applying that externally
before feeding into LC.  Here is a sample of the data:
/point-item1-landed.html
/point-about.html
/point-test.html
/point-item2-landed.html
/point-item300-landed.html

The results I want returned are:
/point-item1-landed.html
/point-item2-landed.html
/point-item300-landed.html

Thanks for your input!

Regex Help

Hey LC / Regex gurus,

I need help creating a regular expression that will filter out all
instances where the pattern looks like this:

/point-XXX-landed.html

Obviously the "XX" section varies from item to item and is also of
different character lengths.

Anybody willing to give this a shot?

Re: Documentation

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Just a thought:  One of pieces of software that we use in our office
environment, we can go online and put in the version of the software you
are using and the version that you have upgraded to and it will compile a
complete feature / bug fix document for you on the fly based upon the
version differences.

It would be GREAT to have something like this Anybody care to take this
on?  :)

Magic Super Glue

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Today I was explaining to someone what I use LiveCode for, especially at
work.  He had the perfect response "So it is your magic super glue!"

Considering I use LC to consolidate data and create tools to compensate for
lack of functionality in other software systems, I couldn't have put it
better.

Re: Simple JSON call

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Richard,

That is what confused me was trying "it", "result", etc.  I was stress
testing what I could do with some complex PUT, GET, POST and DELETE
commands through some XML calls.  I was getting server results, just not
returning values.  urlResponse works beautifully.

Now I just need to parse the darn results :)  Luckily there are few tools
people have mentioned here to do that.

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Hey LCer's

I am need to make a "simple" JSON call using something as simple as this:
  put myCommand into URL myURL

The function works properly but it should also be kicking back some results
that I then need to parse.  The question is, how do I get the results?  I
have tried numerous, standard methods and all have failed thus far.

Working on a project that combines data pulls using several different XML
technologies and am about to pull my hair out at this point :)

Any help is always appreciated!

[OT] Transparent Demo Screen

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Is there any software out there to create the "semi-transparent" demo
screen that you see sometimes when an app launches for the first time.
Yes, I could spend the time doing it in Photoshop but I was thinking there
might be something purpose driven out there already.

There seems to be some commonalty between the ones I have seen with curved
arrows and "handwritten" text.

Know of anything?

Your insight is always appreciated!

Re: sending data somehow...

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

In Windows, I also use a VBScript technique that sends stuff out through my
Outlook client without any interaction.

Just a thought if you want to go down that route

Re: LiveCode Server used to make multi-player game

[Magicgate Software - Skip Kimpel]

Just made a trade (after hours) an immediately I had lost $50.  Is this a
mistake or is there a transaction cost?  Also, it won't let me make another
transaction even though I have 5000 left.
