No worries; thanks for the update.

This is a good example of why I prefer to do most of my daily work with 
the most recent release.  The team's been making good progress on 
reported issues, and more often than not when I use the latest build I 
find things I'd reported against earlier versions now addressed.


And in those cases where an older issue remains present, being able to 
confirm that an issue hasn't been addressed through changes to related 
subsystems is sometimes also useful to note in that report.


A tool like LC is complex stuff, in many ways far more like an OS than 
any consumer app.  And like every OS, or really any non-trivial 
software, there will be bugs.  Working with the latest release offers us 
the clearest expression of the most recent state of the code base, 
greatly empowering both community members and core dev team members to 
identify and prioritize remaining work.

I have downloaded the new RC for LiveCode, just to see if the Executable
Applications Settings work. They work better but there are still problems in
removing stacks and sub-stacks. I did post a bug for this recently and I
will repost another bug report. It is going to be somewhat complicated
because there are a few areas that need to be documented with examples. The
bug report that I posted in the past was 18466 (FYI).

Panos,

I have resolved the issue and can now launch apps into the iOS 10.0
simulator using LC 8.1.1-RC1. The problem was that after updating to Xcode
8.0 there were no simulators, other than AppleTV, installed in the Devices &
Simulators list (Xcode>Window>Devices). Adding an iPad Retina simulator
solved the problem. I don't recall having to add simulators after updating
to a new version of Xcode but there you go!

Should I reports as a bug that LC crashed when trying to launch an app in
the simulator because there was no appropriate iOS simulator installed?

BTW, I see that bug # 17779 is still active. Any idea when this might be
resolved?

Thanks,

Henry

Re: [ ANN ] Release 8.1.1 RC-1

[panagiotis merakos]

Hi Henry,

Interesting. I did not update my existing Xcode version from 7.3 -> 8. I
just downloaded Xcode 8 from the Apple downloads page, and the iOS 10 sim
was included by default.




*Should I reports as a bug that LC crashed when trying to launch an app in
the simulator because there was no appropriate iOS simulator installed?*
I leave this to you*. *I am on holiday for a week so there might be a delay
in processing the bug queue.

Regarding bug 17779, it is of high priority, so I would expect a fix soon.

Best,
Panos

I have downloaded the new RC for LiveCode, just to see if the Executable
Applications Settings work. They work better but there are still problems in
removing stacks and sub-stacks. I did post a bug for this recently and I
will repost another bug report. It is going to be somewhat complicated
because there are a few areas that need to be documented with examples. The

Re: [ ANN ] Release 8.1.1 RC-1

[hlowe]

Panos,

Seems to be a simulator-related issue as the app compiles, installs (using
xCode 8.0) and runs on the iOS 10.0.2 device (have not done an extensive
test of the app on an iPad device yet).

I have restarted the Mac and repeatedly experienced the same failure to
launch the app on the iOS 10.0 simulator, making sure that xCode was not
running.

Henry

Hi Henry,

Was the iOS 9.3 simulator already running when you tried to launch the iOS
10 simulator from LiveCode? Do you see the same problem if you first quit
any running instances of Xcode 7.3 and iOS 9.3 simulator? I suggest filing
a bug report at quality.livecode.com

Best,
Panos

Re: [ ANN ] Release 8.1.1 RC-1

[hlowe]

Using LC 8.1.1 RC-1 with xCode 8.0 and Mac OS 10.12, an iOS app that runs
fine (on iPad device and simulator) under LC 8.1.0 with iOS 9.3 and xCode
7.3.1 now will not launch into the iOS simulator and then after a few
minutes of trying to launch the app, LC 8.1.1 RC-1 crashes.

LC then displays an 'Internal Error' alert stating that "An uncaught
exception was raised." Here is the crash log:
