Bug Tracking

2010-11-12 Thread Peter Haworth
I've learned over the last few days how important it is to keep track of code changes in each release of an app. I already have a LiveCode app that lets me catalog bugs/enhancements, prioritise them, write notes about how they were fixed and define which release they were fixed in.

Thanks Andre. I guess I've gone down the path of rolling my own so far. I don;t think I need the more exotic features like branching, merging, etc so I think I'll just go ahead and add the logic to copy the necessary files to a version folder when I set up a release. I will check out

Globals in debugger insight?

2010-11-12 Thread DunbarX
Thanks, Jacques. I, too have noticed that unchecking the show Globals checkbox in the script editor pane of the preferences does not hide system globals. It is not a speed issue, but rather one of overcrowding. The global list is loaded first, and then all the context variables. Hard to debug

Well, I've downloaded LC 4.5.1 and it builds the application. I've only checked the Mac version at this time, but there are definitely some things that don't work in the standalone as they do in the IDE mode. Cause for a lot of head scratching. Incidentally, for those who have less than perfect

You know I think we ran into this before. Because LiveCode is single threaded, things like animated cursors and progress bars will not run while a single command is executing. I assume this is what you mean by a blocking call. Either LiveCode needs to support multithreading, (unlikely) or
