Re: Dollar Sign Variables

Theiry, Craig,

This method works:

http://lists.runrev.com/pipermail/use-livecode/2012-February/169029.html
but it can't be saved, forcing me to do a lot of work-around each time I open Livecode. It seems I have a permission issue. 

Here's what I do:

Open Message Box, Show Front Scripts, Open stack "revDebugger"
Go to the function "revDebuggerValidGlobalNames" and add the following line:
   filter tGlobalsRaw without "grev*"
This works beautifully but it can't be saved. If I try saving the "revDebugger" stack from the message box I get the error: 

   can't open stack backup file

If I quit I'm prompted to save changes to "revDebugger",
but when I choose to do so I get a longer error:

   Can't save stack revDebugger due to an error
   Can't open stack backup file
   Check the file path, and make sure you have sufficient permissions.
If I try a "save as" and then replace the existing support file with the new one it completely corrupts my installation of Livecode forcing me to download and re-install.
Is there something going on with my "permissions" that I can set to allow the saving of changes to the "revDebugger" stack? 

Thanks,

Ray

Hi.


This is one of my favorite things, courtesy of Thierry. Open the script of the 
debugger and place this in its script. Replace the handler completely.





function revDebuggerValidGlobalNames
    local tGlobalsRaw
    put the globals into tGlobalsRaw
replace comma with return in tGlobalsRaw filter tGlobalsRaw without "*(x86)" 
     filter tGlobalsRaw without "$*"
      filter tGlobalsRaw without "grev*"
    replace return with comma in tGlobalsRaw
return tGlobalsRaw 
end revDebuggerValidGlobalNames


Peace at last.

Subject: Dollar Sign Variables


Does anybody know of a way to stop the script editor from displaying all
the dollar sign variables?  I'll list a few, below, for reference.
Sometimes they don't show up for some reason but most of the time they
not only show up but they're listed at the top, causing a lot of
unnecessary scrolling to get to what I really need to see which is my
own variables.

Thanks,

Ray
