no, I'm not saying this! :-)
Please read up the specialfolderpath() section in the dictionary.
1. specialfolderpath("documents”) is the folder inside of the application
bundle where we have write permissions!
It is already there, do NOT try to create it!
2. Add your "main" stack via the "Copy files" to your app.
3. Then do this when the app (launcher) starts (preopenstack or openstack)
...
## Stack in users docs folder, where we have write permissions, means where we
can SAVE that stack:
put specialfoderpath("documents") & "/your mainstack here.livecode" into
tTargetStack
## This is the stack you added via "Copy files":
put specialfoderpath("resources") & "/your mainstack here.livecode" into
tSourceStack
## check if the app had already been opened before:
if there is NOT a file tTargetStack then
put url("binfile:" & tSourceStack) into url("binfile:" & tTargetStack)
end if
## Now open that new stack in the users docs folder and save it later without
problems:
go stack tTargetStack
...
And don't forget to add:
...
start using this stack
...
to your LAUNCHER Stack before opening other stacks, so your separate "main"
stack can use
all of its scripts, libraries, externals etc.
