Re: AW: AW: How do you handle the poor performance of LC 7?

Similar to Alex I too have been using v7 for everything I do (except for a couple of projects) since about 7.0.3 - and in general have been doing so without problems. I say 'in general' because v7 seems to be more fragile than earlier versions because sometimes when I hit an error in my code the I

Re: How do you handle the poor performance of LC 7?

Just to echo these remarks: I too have been using LC7 for ages and am confident that the product I’m working on (desktop, cross-platform Windows and Mac) will work fine as it’s been tweaked many times (lots of IDE use) and can now be seen to be 99% working in the real world. I have had no partic

Update on bug I reported on 8th April 2014 -15173

Somebody at LiveCode has at last taken a look at the bug report that I submitted on 8th April 2014 thanks to Richard Gaskin’s intervention. They have marked it as a duplicate of a bug reported by David Williams on 17th October 2011. Nobody at LiveCode has responded to that bug either apart from

Re: SQLite and Android "Database Error:Unable to open the database file"

I don’t think it has anything to do with the data in the database, unless the database has been corrupted. If the database is already open by another device, sqLite will not allow you to open it. sqLite is a single user database. Try opening the database with an sql utility. Fairfax has a great

Thanks Bob! I can do the same query on various SQLite utilities, IDE Mac and Windows, iOS and it works fine. The same query on Android fails. Only some of the queries fail on Android. Other work fine. I just got the query to work today by deleting data from the DB that wasn't even going to get

Sounds roughly the same - I've learnt that as soon as v7 seems unhappy the best thing is to quit and restart - but it only goes wonky for me following an error brought on by my code and is ok the rest of the time However, I've seen other people suffering with it in ways you mention... :( Dr. H

Re: AW: AW: How do you handle the poor performance of LC 7?

This is not to say that the solution for people suffering with a 'bad relationship between their computer and v7' is restarts like I describe - that works for me and I'm sure that people suffering multiple crashes/freezes have tried this and many other 'solutions' I have no idea why some people
