Re: Saving data in standalone

2024-05-22 Thread Richard Gaskin via use-livecode
When I've used a group as a document view, sometimes I just copy the group to 
an invisible stackfile for storage.

The engine handles stackfiles efficiently and robustly.

If we had viewers it'd save me the copy step.

Hey Bob, I just tested it and it captured the controls and properties and
custom property sets it would take extra work to "restore" a datagrid,
because we have to package the template stack.. but i think it will
work.  Unless there is a property that the datagrid control has that is
unique to it and is not captured.  I can see the hierarchy of controls
...etc.

PM me I can send you the stack if you want to take a look

Re: Saving data in standalone

2024-05-16 Thread Craig Newman via use-livecode
There is much discussion about this on the forum.

The contents of the executable, the actual standalone you make from a stack, 
cannot be saved by any OS. I use what is know as the “Splash Stack” method, 
alluded to by Paul above.

In the Application Builder of the stack you are making the actual standalone 
from, you can add any number of stack files. These are files that contain any 
number of stack and substacks.

My standalone is never used for anything but navigating to other stacks 
attached to it. Once navigation is effected, the splash stack hides itself, its 
entire purpose fulfilled.

Takes just little practice. You can make one right now with two stacks in two 
separate stack files. Have the executable one go to the other one, and you are 
on your way.

My suggestion would be to have your Standalone create a new stack with 
the user's work and save that stack under a customer file extension for 
your app.


You can not actually save data in a standalone. you must save it to some 
source outside of the standalone - and stack, a text file, a binary 
file, a remote database, etc. - whatever works for your app.

Bob:

Very welcome, good topic! But STILL a different/partial implementation –

‘Main stacks’ triggers wrong connotation for you.

Not the build stack  or the project stack ... but, in your case:

> library or behavior stacks

Yes, THOSE! Whatever stacks are identified via subsequent dialogs.

> I could enumerate all of those and then just have code that
> statically closes each stack.

Yep, that’s the delete part. Only the ones announced in dialogs. If more 
than a couple, use a repeat to test or try each separately.


(MAIN stacks, not substacks, for safety with LC ‘delete stack’!) 

> The SB ought not to do that!

Very true. Reported (again) to LC yet?

Already resolved for my project though, so I will focus on other LC 
issues here, after a break for more AAC setup!

Hi Curry. Thanks for your help and Jacque as well. 

I did as you say, in card 1 of the splash stack (which is the stack I build 
from because I do not have the need to modify it runtime) I have this code in 
the card script: 

on closestack
   --- curryk 2020 no-purge LC build:
   if the environment is “development" then
  lock messages
  --- and only if add'l loaded MAIN stacks with issues:
  try
 save stack "Forms Generator"
 delete stack "Forms Generator"
 # delete stack "XYZ" --- etc
  end try
   end if
end closestack


The result is the first time I build everything goes smoothly (as it always 
has.) The SECOND time I build I get an alert dialog for every stack that is a 
behavior of something in the Main Stack or that I started using (library I 
guess). 

The standalone Builder opens COPIES of these stacks to add to the standalone, 
then LEAVES THEM OPEN IN MEMORY. THAT is the heart of the matter. The SB ought 
not to do that! (I’m talking to you LC devs.) 

I suppose I could enumerate all of those and then just have code that 
statically closes each stack. That is probably what I will do. 

Deleting the main stack does not delete the COPIES of those library or behavior 
stacks. 

In summary the problem is not what is open when I go to build. The problem is 
what is open after I build.

Anyway, my thanks again for everyone who offered a suggestion on how to resolve 
this. Sometime the brute force workaround is the only workaround.

Bob:

> Yes but as I mentioned, that did not work for me.

You used something DIFFERENT (a partial implementation) so different 
results -


That’s fine; it’s just not this particular workaround! 

I think you misread a code comment, now edited for clarity

> I still got the two messages after the first build,
> then messages for ALL my subsequent stack files

That’s what the last part does: close (‘delete’) any ADDITIONAL 
problematic main stacks in memory -


(NOT the build stack again!) - to avoid subsequent dialogs.

Then ... smooth building, here, ever since.

Your auto detection effort would be very useful, but just manually 
identify the SPECIFIC problem stacks, per the dialogs – and ‘delete’ the 
MAIN stacks thereof in the code.


If more than a couple main stacks to delete, I would use repeat with a 
test or try. Likewise, the isBuildingStandalone() function from Panos 
could provide a more specific closestack trigger if needed for splash 
stack, but I haven’t tried it in this workaround.


Whether behaviors or other issues could ever require an extra step, 
obviously we CAN enjoy the same build experience as pre-2020 SB, by 
simply using the same techniques! Just as I have.

YES! Reported (again) to LC yet?

It is a bug/defect, but that was denied at the time.

Thus, I'm pleased to have created the only (?) complete lower-code 
workaround for smooth standalone building, without needing to do ‘the 
dance’ to avoid LC purge dialogs, nor tweak many handlers. ;)


So here is the authentic tried-and-true workaround code again, with 
Comments Edited for stronger clarity versus hasty/casual reading!


Solved AND resolved, these 4 years –

But of course, needing ANY workaround for LC standalone building is just 
plain wrong!


That is awkward and a little creepy; it should indeed work right out of 
the box without ‘modifying code just to build’ as someone already said 
it well. I hope EVERYONE will encourage LC to fix this SB issue.


Meanwhile... Simplest way – In card 1 of main stack to build from:

on closestack
--- curryk 2020 no-purge LC build:
if the environment is "development" then
   lock messages
   --- and only if add'l loaded MAIN stacks with issues:
   try
  # delete stack "ABC"
  # delete stack "XYZ" --- etc
   end try
end if
end closestack

Of course, for a build workaround (or any LC work!) backup your stacks 
first, and don't mix/match methods without caution or ignore project 
setup. Read carefully to understand code and comments, and see ‘delete 
stack’ in LC reference.

Not as Curry; that's due to a partial implementation.

Well I gave that a try, only using your method in the splash stack. I get the 
same results as Curry, I get two dialogs complaining there are open stacks on 
the second platform build, then when I try to open the Main Stack without 
quitting and relaunching Livecode, I get the dialog for every stack that I 
start using in the main stack. 

As I said, I think the trick has to be to find a way to save the state of the 
environment before building for a platform, close all non-native stacks, do the 
build, again close all non-native stacks, then restore the stacks from the 
saved environment. I am working on that now and it should be fairly trivial.

Re: Supress Standalone Builder Warnings

2024-05-03 Thread J. Landman Gay via use-livecode
I think the problem is in the splash stack, which is where the blocking 
handlers should go. When LC builds a standalone, it clones the one in the 
IDE and creates the standalone from that. Then it reopens the original 
which now triggers all the handlers in the original. You don't really need 
to worry about the other stacks, just the one that triggers the opening of 
the working stack(s). When the SB finishes, it will reopen the splash and 
the blocks will prevent any other stacks from loading into memory.  That 
may mean you need to use the message box to trigger the handler that opens 
the others right after the SB finishes.


The problem may be that LC doesn't close its own copy properly before 
reopening the original. I'd submit a bug report and include your stack(s) 
so they can take a look. Ideally there would be an option or property that 
would let us decide whether messages should be locked or not. It would be 
nice if the engine could store variable values, create the standalone with 
messages locked, and then restore the values after the build.


I'm not sure Curry's suggestion will work, since the SB manages 
lockmessages on its own. I've tried scripting a lock messages and it was 
ignored.

Re: Supress Standalone Builder Warnings

2024-05-03 Thread Bob Sneidar via use-livecode
Okay, well this is better. When building for MacOS and Windows simultaneously, 
I only get the dialog twice, whether or not I delete the main stack or no. 

But if I leave Livecode running and then try to open the main stack, I get all 
the dialogs. 

I think the problem is that the Livecode Standalone builder is leaving files 
open from the standalone that ought not be left open. The Standalone Builder 
should build a list of all the file paths of all open stacks (that are not 
native to Livecode itself) prior to the build, then close them all, then build 
the standalone, then close. any stacks opened in that process, then restore the 
old environment by re-opening the stacks that were open prior to the build. 

That is the only way I can see to make the process as clean as possible. The 
end goal here has to be to leave the environment in the exact state that it was 
prior to building. I doubt that will ever get implemented, but that has to be 
how it works. 

I think I can develop a workaround myself, and will probably do that and share 
it with everyone.

Also, isn’t the problem that when opening a stack Livecode detects the stack 
being opened has the same name as one already in memory?

Hi Curry.

I use a Splash Stack which then opens what I call the mainStack. Should I put 
this in the closeStack of the splash stack or the main stack?

The engine used to lock messages when building a standalone but that was 
changed 4 years ago. Personally I think it causes more problems than it 
solves, but the solution is to add (multiple) handlers to your stack to 
avoid the dialog. Most of my stacks work okay without the additions, but if

Re: Supress Standalone Builder Warnings

2024-05-03 Thread Bob Sneidar via use-livecode
Unfortunately that is not working. I put the function that checks in the script 
of the mainStack, and that script gets set as a backScript on preOpenstack so 
that all the handlers in that stack are available in a Windows standalone (when 
the Windows builder breaks out all the sub stacks, the script of the mainStack 
is no longer in the message path). 

I then used the Find function to find all the (pre) openStack / closeStack 
handlers and add the statement at the beginning. 

However when I attempt to build for MacOS and Windows, or if I do a second 
build in the same Livecode session, I get the dreaded dialogs over, and over, 
and over. Again. Like 100 times. 

So my initial question is, what library actually pops up that dialog so I can 
force the cancel option every time, or is that something built into the engine?

Simplest way – In card 1 of main stack to build:

on closestack
   --- curryk 2020 no-purge LC build:
   if the environment is "development" then
  lock messages
  --- and only if add'l main stack issues:
  try
 # delete stack "XYZ"
  end try
   end if
end closestack

Indeed; WAY more.

Hi Marty. 

I really do want to convert to Levure, but I had a lot of refactoring to do to 
completely cut over to Andre’s Publish and Subscribe framework before I do 
that, and I am waiting until that is completed. I am just at the point now, so 
maybe that will be my next project.

Supress Standalone Builder Warnings

2024-05-02 Thread Bob Sneidar via use-livecode
Hi all. 

I have about had it with the Standalone asking me if I want to save, purge or 
cancel for stacks that are already open. I ONLY ever have one version of any 
stack that is open, unless the Standalone Builder is leaving stack IN the 
Standalone in memory, which would be breathtakingly bad programming, and I do 
not think they are doing that. 

What I would like to do is edit the library that is popping up that dialog, and 
setting it to where it always cancels (doesn’t change anything). I know I will 
have to update the library each time a new release came out but it’s worth it 
just to avoid the hassle of quitting and relaunching every time a different 
standalone need to be built. 

I tried editing the script of revSaveAsStandalone.livecode in the MacOS bundle, 
but the word “purge” does not occur in the library. Any idea what library is 
actually popping up that dialog? 

BTW the standalone building IS much faster with 9.6.12 (rc1)

AHA. I did, but did not see past the fact that the “$” keyword took parameters.

Wow I just read that and it didn’t even make sense to me!

Basically with Windows, dragging a file onto a taskbar icon only adds the file 
to the icon’s Pinned items. Dragging a file onto an open window of an App will 
try and open the file in that app. If the app’s window(s) are hidden, dragging 
and hovering over the app’s shortcut will cause the app to show it’s window(s) 
whereupon you can drop the file onto the open window.

If I drag the file onto the open Window, the app will open it. Case in point,

Because of this you may be able to use a Drag / Drop handler in your card 
script. The caveat is that the card itself will not accept a drag/drop action, 
but if you drag anything on top of an actual object, THEN the card will get the

So to handle this, add an opaque rectangle the size of the card behind 
everything else (if the opacity is set to 99 it will appear transparent for all 
intents and purposes). The rectangle (or any other object on the card that 
doesn’t have a dragDrop handler) will get the message and it will fall through 
to the card where you can handle it.

This in my card script:

on dragEnter
  set the dragAction to "link" -- for files
  pass dragEnter
end dragEnter

on dragDrop
  put the dragData into tDragData

On Windows, if the APP is started by dropping a file on it, the file name is 
available to any handler in the startup sequence via the $1 special variable. 
i.e. IF teh variable $1 contains a file name the app was started by someone 
droping the file on teh app or by double-clicking a file associated with teh 
app.

On macOS, this is all handled by appleEvents. i.e. if a file is dropped on a LC 
standalone on macOS that standalone gets an appleEvent message and the 
parameters of the message can be used to get the file name . This is true on 
startup (if a file was dropped on the app to start it or an associated file was 
double clicked to start the app OR on macOS if the app is already running and a 
file is dropped on its icon, the app gets an appleEvent message.

So, what message does a LC standalone app on Windows get, if it has been 
running and a file is dropped on its icon? An what is the message path of that 
message (i.e. is it send to the current card, current stack, the mainstack 
card, or the mainstack stack?)

Re: Windows Standalone strands windows tasks

I primarily develop for Windows, and haven't experienced this since my early 
rookie years.  I believe the secret is to have the line "set destroyStack to 
true" in every stack so that when it closes, nothing lingers in memory.  Then, 
when you actually quit, it all goes away.

add this to the script your mainstack:
-
on closestack
  close stack "your splash stack here"
  ## do more closestack stuff
end closestack
-
That should do the trick.

Windows Standalone strands windows tasks

2023-10-12 Thread Bob Sneidar via use-livecode
Hi all.

I have a standalone that uses a splash stack, which upon launch displays a 
startup graphic, then hides itself and opens the mainstack of my project. On 
MacOS when I "quit" the entire application quits. On Windows however the splash 
stack (which is the stack the standalone is built from) keeps running, and if I 
re-launch the standalone it creates a second instance of the app in memory.

How do I get the standalone to quit when I close the mainstack in Windows?

If it was to distinguish OSX from Classic you got a lot of life out of it, as 
Apple didn't change the major version number for decades. :)

But I'm curious: was it just an errant condition triggering a hide, or did it 
trigger a deeper bug in the engine which prevents LC from rendering the content 
region of the window?

Okay, this was all a false alarm and a code error. Some contractor code 
was designed pre-Big Sur (and whatever version of LC fixed Big Sus 
reporting as version 10.16) and only looked at if the first number of 
the version was 10 to determine what if it was OSX. Sorry for the false

We're also seeing that fields that contain in-line images among the 
text/content of the field do not render under Sonoma using a standalone 
built on LC 9.6.10. Thursday, we'll try to make a sample test stack to 
confirm this.

Hello Klaus,

Yes you do need android API 33, but keep the version of the android build
tools to 31.0.0. These are different things. You can install/uninstall
various versions of the build tools if you open the second tab of the sdk
manager in android studio.

FEATURES ADDED:
Android API 33 update
The Android engine is now built using version 33 of the Android API, a

And I am using LC 9.6.10!
I installed API 33 for this reason. What gives? :-(

And we MUST use API 33 for new apps or updates of older app.

Hello Klaus,

I am afk now, but there is a bug report about it. The workaround is to make
sure you have installed only v31.0.0 of the android *build tools*. Anything
above v31 will cause this error.

Hi friends,

I created an Android runtime from this stack in April without any problem.
Now I changes some minor cosmetic issues and got this error when "Save as 
standalone..."

Only thing I can remember is that I added API 33 in Android Studio.

macOS 12.7, LC 9.6.10. Android Studio 2021.3

There was an error while saving the standalone application
Could not encode class bundle - error:

Re: Answer dialog text missing in standalone 9.6.9

2023-07-01 Thread General 2018 via use-livecode
Hi ,

Is this a bug ?
Win 10

LC 9.6.8 Standalone
Black Text.
Background as stack colour but needs to set to white as text cannot be seen.
Buttons black text on grey - a bit naff.

LC 9.6.9 Standalone
White Text.
Background as stack colour - okay except for white as text is white.
Buttons white text on grey - no good.

LC 9.6.8 / 9.6.9
Always black text on white/grey regardless of stack colours?

Is there a fundamental problem with ask/answer dialog on Windows ? Would expect 
this to work and why changing across versions ?

Camm

i think there are other ide stacks that switched from binary to
script-only stacks in 9.6.9. that broke some other behaviors, too. if
i was betting, i would bet that the SOS is not explicitly setting the
font color, but i haven't read the script to confirm, either.

Re: Answer dialog text missing in standalone 9.6.9

2023-06-30 Thread General 2018 via use-livecode
Hi ,

Made new stack and works okay.

Then found that I had set the background colour of ask and answer to white, 
this has worked for many years and showed black text. The stack background is 
blue. Do I assume something has changed in 9.6.9 ?

I removed the set background to white and the answer background is now blue as 
expected with white text. The answer banner is white with black text but the 
yes/no buttons are grey with white text which is unreadable.

Regards
Camm

Re: Answer dialog text missing in standalone 9.6.9

2023-06-30 Thread J. Landman Gay via use-livecode
Is the text color of calling stack white? The dialog will inherit the color 
from that stack, or from the next one in the inheritance path. The text may 
be there but not visible.

I assume you mean the standard “Answer” command. There is no “Answer

So if you:

answer “Some Text" with “Yes" or “No"
what exactly pops up?

Re: Answer dialog text missing in standalone 9.6.9

2023-06-30 Thread Craig Newman via use-livecode
Matthias makes a point. Sometimes trying with a brand new stack will show that 
there is something amiss, even corrupted, with the stack of interest. If the 
new stack works, it likely means that LiveCode works, and the problem lies 
within the recalcitrant stack.

Hi.

I assume you mean the standard “Answer” command. There is no “Answer Text”.

So if you:

answer “Some Text" with “Yes" or “No"
what exactly pops up?

THANK YOU. That worked.

Not that I care much, but was it Ventura or the new machine itself that 
required re-licensing?

I tried to make a windows standalone from the same project I have for years.
In the Applications Settings I cannot select the Windows pane. It is

In fact, I cannot select any pane except the Mac one. The Mac standalone

I made a brand new stack. Same issue; only the Mac pane is accessible.

The web browser widget is implemented as an IFrame - this comes with it 
a fair amount of security restrictions unless the website being embedded 
has appropriate cross-origin settings (or comes from the same host as 
the surrounding page).


In this case, I suspect the website is just refusing to be embedded - 
indeed if you go to:


   
https://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_iframe_height_width


Then change the src to the website above then it won't work there 
either.

Thanks Matthias, that is great news. We all super appreciate the work you do on 
making the job of notarising easier for LC’ers. I don’t have a project I am 
actively working on for iOS, but have parked this great bit of good news for 
future reference (and thanks also to Kee Nethery for the work he does helping 
us navigate submissions to the Mac App Store). You are both a godsend!!

Notarizing a standalone with Xcode 13 and 14

2023-02-23 Thread matthias rebbe via use-livecode
Hello,

with Xcode 13 Apple introduced a new command line tool (notarytool) which makes 
Notarizing much easier and more convenient. At least i feel so. ;)

For those who are interested
There is a new lesson for Xcode 13 and 14 which describe the whole process.
The lesson also includes an updated version of my Helper stack.

I think you just need to ensure 'Script Debug Mode' is turned off before clicking Test. (The

I think I've figured it out; the files won't be any different. Test builds
always include the remote debugger, standalones do not unless you
specifically select it in Inclusions. I didn't do that, and I have an
errorDialog handler in the stack, so I think that's causing the appearance
of the error dialog in the standalone. In the test app the error seems to be
ignored (but don't ask me why...)

I've submitted a bug report:
<https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24075>

The stack is for my own use, a very (not so attractive) minimal LC
dictionary lookup so I can check syntax when I'm not at my computer. You can
download it from the report. Maybe someone else will find it useful. It uses
James Hale's docset for reference. I couldn't get his Docset Reader to work
reliably on Android, and I didn't need all the extra LC Builder and Guides
documentation, so this is just a stripped-down list of dictionary terms.

The fix is mentioned in the report. Just comment out line 71 and uncomment
the line with the fix. Checking the current card before initiating a search
is the workaround.

TBF, that's buried way at the bottom of the dictionary entry.

Here's why. From the dictionary:

*Note:* The errorDialog message is only sent while Script Debug mode
is turned off.
