Yeah that threw me too, but since I have a license that goes into 2014, I 
realized it was a faux pas. I never click the Buy button if I already bought

 Not to sound stupid or

 Sheesh. A fool and his money soon do part.

Working with tab data and utf-8

2011-10-25 Thread Giuseppe


Hi all,

I'm having a little problem I don't understand.

With this code
   put SELECT * from empresas WHERE nif = '  pID  ' into theSQL
   put revDataFromQuery(tab, cr, sDatabaseID, theSQL) into theData

I get this in a variable theData

2123456789Empresa 2Empresa 2DirecciÃ³n 2Mucia
Murcia30001EspaÃ±a868987654868987654


now, I need the second value. How can I get it?

I tried with
   set the text of field cif of group controles empresa to the 
second column of theData


But I get a syntax Error.

Another problem I have is with ¿utf8?

In database, the fifth column with DirecciÃ³n 2 in database is 
Dirección 2

You have to encode it as unicode:

set the unicodeText of fld myFld to uniencode(item 5 of theData,UTF8)

Re: Working with tab data and utf-8

Hi Giuseppe,

For plain text, you can use:

set the itemDel to tab
put item 2 of theData into field cif of group controles empresa

I'm not sure that the UTF8 returned by MySQL is read correctly by LiveCode. If 
LiveCode reads it correctly, you can do:

set the unicodeText of fld cif of grp controles empresa to \
uniEncode(item 2 of theData,UTF8)

but if it isn't then you might need to make sure that MySQL returns plain text, 
by changing the encoding of your entire database.

Re: [OT] Interesting Read On Tech In Classrooms vs None

2011-10-25 Thread Jeff Reynolds

having run a high school computer lab and taught multimedia there its
really true that they are oversold and underused. it takes a lot of
creativity and flexibility to find when and where you get a hight bang
for the buck to use computers in the classroom, otherwise you are just
spending a lot of time and money that yields negative learning
returns... i do fear taking the other extreme can be just as
problematic.

its the content, stupid was my old motto. folks get wrapped up in to
the tech use/process and forget that its sposta be about the learning
unless you are in a specialized tech class. for some things you can do
some wonderfully engaging things with computers and tech in the
classroom, but its really limited in its scope and requires resources,
planning, and experience to do it for a positive educational gain. was
actually a hard concept to get across to some teachers and made some
battles, but the shining examples eventually won them over to doing
more planning and limits on how/when the computers were used. others
hated all technology and it took a time and work to show them some
places where it could really help.

its like most things the simple rules of, everything in moderation;
right tool, right task; there is no magic bullet /there is no free
lunch; tend to be such good guides.

so much of this stuff gets jammed into education by powers above. in
the late 90s i gave a presentation to the heads of all the bay bells
about interactive multimedia education. they were all hot with the
roll out of interactive services via their new systems they thought
that they could make millions by delivering/selling educational
materials via tv/computer. i showed them really cool things we had
done that were very successful, and they were really drooling, but i
left the last third of the talk to interactively discuss with them the
other shoe(s) to drop. first these were in very specific, cherry
picked places where technology really worked great and that was not
true of the vast majority of things to be taught/exhibited, then the
cost to develop content to this cool interactive level (jaws dropped).
then finally i had them estimate how much they spent on educational
materials themselves (id say most of these guys were in the 7-8 figure
range of income) and it was pretty pathetically small. i then
contrasted ok you make over a million dollars a year what do you think
someone making $40k will spend. big silence. i told them these were
not a deal breakers, but just moderators and that they needed to
choose wisely where and when technology should be inserted into
education to be successful. it was interesting chatting with them over
the rest of the weekend event as many admitted they were ready to just
try and jam this down the tubes w/o ever thinking about these things.
was an eye opener for me at how things were done at that level too...

cheers

My current workaround is to trap the paste function for the field, then paste

So, this works, but I was wondering if there is a way to limit a field to only

Much of a muchness, but you could try clearing the clipboardData[html] before 
you paste in your pasteKey handler. That way you should just be pasting plain 
text.

Re: Export and Import SQLite data from LC Project?

Hi John,

Can't you transfer the entire database file? If not, you can just do a dump and 
import the resulting file or do a query and save the data to a text file, which 
you import the usual way.

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/04/technology/technology-in-schools-faces-questions-on-value.html?pagewanted=all
  This latest one on Waldorf schools falls along these lines.

 There are all kinds of pro and con conversations and links, for example,on the

Re: Export and Import SQLite data from LC Project?

I don't think there's a built in way to do this in LC, you'd have to write
some code.

Alternatively, if you have sqlite3 on your computer, you could run it from
LC and pass it the necessary commands to dump and restore the db.  To dump
the data, You'd need to send it a .mode command with a mode of insert ( to
create SQL Insert statements), then a .dump command.  To add it back, use
the sqlite3 .read command.  Run sqlite3 and enter .help for more specific
info.

All that assumes the table you are loading data into doesn't already have
the dumped data in it.

Mark is correct. This is from the Distinctive Features page provided 
by SQLite:


Single Database File
 An SQLite database is a single ordinary disk file that can be located 
anywhere in the directory hierarchy. If SQLite can read the disk file 
then it can read anything in the database. If the disk file and its 
directory are writable, then SQLite can change anything in the database. 
Database files can easily be copied onto a USB memory stick or emailed 
for sharing.


Stable Cross-Platform Database File
 The SQLite file format is cross-platform. A database file written on 
one machine can be copied to and used on a different machine with a 
different architecture. Big-endian or little-endian, 32-bit or 64-bit 
does not matter. All machines use the same file format. Furthermore, the 
developers have pledged to keep the file format stable and backwards 
compatible, so newer versions of SQLite can read and write older 
database files.


You don't need to do anything other than copy the database file.

I have a peculiar problem. I have an application that is approved to run in
a Citrix environment. (all windows stuff) The application uses an sqlite
database. It works fine when I run it from my desktop at work. But, if I run
it through the Citrix environment, the database components do not run at
all. Near as I can tell, the problem is that unapproved .dll files are
blocked, the same way that unapproved .exe files are blocked.

As it takes several months to get applications approved, I was hoping to
find a way to use the commands from the database external without actually
having an external .dll file.

Is that possible? I know that an external file could be stored as a custom
prop, then saved to a file when used, but that won't work in this situation.
Somehow, I need to actually internalize an external. Does anyone have any
suggestions for that?

Thanks,

Jonathan

Re: Limiting field entry to plain text

Thanks, Terry and Klaus for responding.  I used Klaus' recommendation.

Sure enough, there WAS a better way!

 set the htmltext of field URLField to the text of field URLField

 try this:

 Check clipboarddata in the dictionary.
 
 So, this works, but I was wondering if there is a way to limit a field to

 Much of a muchness, but you could try clearing the clipboardData[html] 
 before you paste in your pasteKey handler. That way you should just be 
 pasting plain text.

Fire the entire IT staff and replace them with people who will respond to

As a fallback you can add this (untested)

on closefield
   put the text of me into me
end closefield

which would do the trick when the user leaves the field. I'm not sure but I 
think the paste operation doesn't actually trigger the engine to mark the field 
as dirty (bug?), so closefield may not be triggered, so you might have to put 
the same command into an exitfield handler. I recall scripting something 
somewhere to make sure a field is marked as dirty after a paste but I don't 
have it handy

When has a field changed?

Here is what I have come up with, something of a kludge. Is there a cleaner way?

on mouseEnter --Enter the field
   set the textChange of me to false
end mouseEnter

on rawkeydown tKey
   if the textChange of me is true then
  pass rawKeyDown
   else
  set the textChange of me to true

on mouseLeave

Re: When has a field changed?

yes. on closeField. However be aware that clicking a button before tabbing out 
of the field will NOT send a closeField to an edited field. Someone sent me a 
workaround for that, but I cannot find it right now. I am sure it is in the 
archives. Note that exitField is sent when a field loses focus, whether any 
edits were made or not. CloseField only gets sent when the field has been 
edited. 

I will say that validations on leaving a field can be dicey. Let's say a field 
contains the value Bears. Later you create a validation that only allows a 
subset of dog breeds, and you validate upon exit whether or not anything has 
changed. Empty is not a valid entry. You will end up locking your user into the 
field and the only way out is to enter a random dog breed that may not apply, 
but is the only way out. 

I would only use what I call mid-validations (as opposed to pre-validations to 
precheck and format data before putting it into a field or post-validations to 
pre-check or format data before writing it to a database) to do things like 
phone number formatting, zip code formatting, upper and title case formatting 
etc. Nothing that will halt the user and demand he do something different. Just 
my 2¢

Maybe catching the fields closefield message could do what you need?

From the docs:
closefield
Sent to a field when the focus is being removed from that field and the field's

Confused again

2011-10-25 Thread Timothy Miller

I keep getting this message, too. I don't know what to think. I never 
subscribed to the developers' program. Don't know what it is. (Well... I think 
it's some kind of a program for developers, but that's just a guess.)

I am a registered owner of 5.0 for the Mac desktop. That's all I need or want.

Apparently, I should get the maintenance upgrade to 5.0.1. I have no idea when 
I last paid for an upgrade, or how much I paid.

I can't figure out how to get the maintenance upgrade, or how much I am 
expected to pay for it.

This is the second time I've asked. Jacque replied briefly before, trying to be 
helpful, but the mystery lingers on. She seemed to suggest that the upgrade to 
5.0.1 is for developers only, but that doesn't sound right.

Please advise.

How would I get livecode to intercept data and then send it

2011-10-25 Thread Mike Felker

What I want to to is integrate two script systems.  One is open source and the 
other is encrypted but has an API.  You can send certain fields of data.  I am 
hoping username and password is send-able. 

How can I use live code to send the login info from one script (plexum) to a 
live code middleware and then have that live code program instantly send it to 
the second script (opencart) .  This has to be done without user interaction. 

Can this be done?  How?

Re: [OT] Interesting Read On Tech In Classrooms vs None

Judy you are describing my workplace! I guess the problem persists into the 
workplace as well. If school children were taught how to solve problems instead 
of memorize answers, I think we would find that when confronted with 
technology, they as adults would have the skills to incorporate the technology 
into whatever it is they needed to do. As is, unless they can find it on 
Google, they give up trying. Some don't even know to use Google! 

We seem to have transformed from a nation of problem solvers to one of 
automatons. Maybe I am being pessimistic, but I work with people everyday who 
want the best hardware and software, and then end up producing unadulterated 
garbage with it. Web sites that should never see the light of day, video clips 
posted to the web that I would be embarrassed to have my name attached to for 
fear my reputation would be irrevocably ruined, step by step lists of how to do 
something on a sticky note that reveal the person knows absolutely nothing 
about what it is they are doing, users that get stuck at the logon screen 
because their password doesn't work and cannot fathom that the user name has 
changed, or why that would make a difference (I just enter my password every 
day, that is all I know!) I could go on. 

I say, define and support mission critical technology, scrap technology for 
other positions, replace the people who cannot cope. It's the only way back 
from the brink. Ye Old Curmudgeon has spoken.

Any upgrades you are entitled to will be available from the Store at 
runrev.com. Select that link and sign in. 5.0 seems to be the latest 
publicly available version. There is a 5.0.1 developer preview which is 
a pre-release version available only to those who have paid the 
additional money to be involved in the Developer Program. I don't get 
any messages regarding an update when I open 5.0 under Linux. (I am a 
member of the Developer Program as a result of the prior licensing 
model.) I wonder if this is a bug.


If you have a question regarding what future updates you may be entitled 
to, ask RunRev support directly. They are the only people who have 
access to your records and who can provide you a definitive answer.

Re: How would I get livecode to intercept data and then send it

Hi Mike,

There are so many ways to do this! You could open a socket and send the data, 
or save the data in a file and make LiveCode read that, or open a LiveCode 
executable with a few parameters from the command line, or perhaps even set the 
clipboard and make LiveCode read that, or write an external that reads specific 
bytes memory, or... or... or... maybe you should be a little more specific and 
tell us what you want to achieve? Also, why wouldn't you be able to send data 
directly from plexum to opencart?

I'm wondering the same thing, because 5.0 has just reintroduced 
auto-update notifications. It's new code and there may be a glitch.




If you have a question regarding what future updates you may be entitled
to, ask RunRev support directly. They are the only people who have
access to your records and who can provide you a definitive answer.


Anyone affected should definitely take this advice. Not only is the 
notice misleading, but the team needs to know there's a problem.

I'd just use closefield myself. The bug with the buttons was a problem 
for a long time, but I thought it was fixed. It's been a while, but last 
time I checked I was getting appropriate closefield messages. If you 
find that you aren't, turn off traversalOn on your button and it should 
bypass the bug.


Trapping closefield is way easier than all that scripting.

Re: When has a field changed?

In the button script you could put select empty in the first line. That 
should cause the field's closeField handler to fire before the rest of the 
button script.

Re: When has a field changed?

James,
The button click/closeField problem happens because, on OS X anyway, the
filed doesn;t lose focus when you click on the button (you'll see the cursor
is still in it).  Put focus on nothing at the top of your button's
mouseDown handler.  That removes focus from the field thus causing the
closeField event to happen if the content changed, or exitField if nothing
changed.

Not sure if this has been mentioned in this thread but you don't get a
closeField if you change a field's contents by script, which may or may not
be a problem depending on your application.  The workaround is to send
closeField to the field in your script.

Hope that helps,

Pete

Re: When has a field changed?

Actually, the workaround I was thinking of trapped mouseUp in the card or stack 
handler, then used the command focus on nothing. This will force the loss of 
focus by the field thereby forcing a closeField to be sent to the field that 
lost the focus. 

This way you can use closeField in fields, and still trap for those mouseups. 
Just be sure to pass mouseUp in all of your button handlers and you are good to 
go!

Empty fields and controls after testing

2011-10-25 Thread Admin

  

One thing that truly bugs the hell out of me with Live Code is that
when I am done designing/programming and want to test it, the data is
now a part of the program. 

What I mean is, say you have and edit box
and you go to test the program and type stuff in the edit box then go
back to edit mode, the text is still there. Same

goes for captions and
other stuff - any changes made in test mode sticks. 

Is there a way to
test a program and when you go back to edit mode, it initializes
everything so that all controls are blank. 

As it stands now, I have to
write a custom button that when pressed, wipes all fields/controls and
puts them back to their empty original state. It's a pain in the
ass.

No other language I program in does this.

Any thoughts?

Mike

[OT] Box.net free 50Gb for iOS 5 users

2011-10-25 Thread Chipp Walters

Hey guys. You don't want to miss this free lifetime giveaway. Box.net recently 
closed on a huge round of financing, and they are now, for a limited time, 
allowing anyone with an iPhone or iPad and iOS5 to download their free Box.net 
app from the Appstore and register for a free 50Gb of online storage!

The free app pretty much sucks, but the the storage is very real. You can set 
up GoodReader and other desktop clients (not Box.net desktop client as they 
will charge you for it) and access your 50Gbs however you like. Also, if you 
don't have an iPhone or iPad, a friend can sign you up. Plus, you can sign 
yourself up for as many email addresses as you like. I've set myself up with 3 
accounts and 150Gb of free data storage. I plan on using GoodSync to back up to 
Box.net all my important files. One note, you cannot upload a file larger than 
100Mb, which shouldn't be too big an issue for me.

You can use the free version http://www.gladinet.com/ to also see all your 
cloud storage devices as folders on our desktop.

Hope this works for some of you!

This is the same as issuing select empty or focus on something else - in 
both cases it forces the closeField (or exitFIeld message if the field hasn't 
changed) to the target field. However it's still not bulletproof, however, 
because you can paste text from the clipboard into a field and then click out 
of it and the field does NOT receive a closeField; it receives and exitField 
instead. So Mark's approach that he posted (with or without the MD5 hash) is 
probably the best: grab either the field contents or an MD5digest of the 
contents on open field, and then check the same thing on closeField AND 
exitField to let you know if something's changed. 

Also note that even THAT is not bulletproof (since if you have messages locked 
during any of this you may/may not get the messages you're looking for), but 
it's about as close as you can get. 

:D

drawing with a finger in iOS

2011-10-25 Thread Andre Garzia

Hello Folks,

I know the paint tools are not supported in iOS but did anyone here
succeeded in making some paintbrush of sorts for iOS?

My idea is just to place a signature area in an application and capture
the user signature there (I just bought an iPad stylus and want to play with
it and LiveCode). Any clue? I don't think touchMove gives us enough points
to make the drawing, does it?

There must be some way, since the iPad2 TV Commercial shows some children doing

Re: drawing with a finger in iOS

Hi Andre,

I can probably do this with the revBrowser. I made a signature pad that
works with FileMaker using the its built browser.

It should work on the Mac and iOS. I am not sure about windows. Does the
ReBrowser plugin use IE on windows?  If so it might be a little trickier

What do you think?

During the Summer Academy Elanor created a stack for Android that used 
the polygon tool to capture a signature.


Since iOS has led the way as far as features are concerned it's possible 
it would work there as well.


I think the stack is hiding behind a Summer Academy login so I'll send 
you the zip privately.

Re: When has a field changed?

2011-10-25 Thread James Hurley

Thanks all. Problem solved. 

The closeField is triggered only when the field is changed and the focus is 
changed to something outside the field.

The only problem is when the next selection is a button (on the Mac at least) 
the focus remains in the field.

The work around, as several pointed out, is either  select empty or focus on 
nothing in the button scripts. (A bit of a nuisance.)

It appears to make no difference whether the traversalOn is true or false for 
the button, which seems a bit odd.

Yeah. I misspoke. It's auto-hilite that matters. But then you have to 
write your own hiliting handlers, so the focus solution is much better.

Hey guys. You don't want to miss this free lifetime giveaway. 
Box.nethttp://Box.net recently closed on a huge round of financing, and they 
are now, for a limited time, allowing anyone with an iPhone or iPad and iOS5 to 
download their free Box.nethttp://Box.net app from the Appstore and register 
for a free 50Gb of online storage!

The free app pretty much sucks, but the the storage is very real. You can set 
up GoodReader and other desktop clients (not Box.nethttp://Box.net desktop 
client as they will charge you for it) and access your 50Gbs however you like. 
Also, if you don't have an iPhone or iPad, a friend can sign you up. Plus, you 
can sign yourself up for as many email addresses as you like. I've set myself 
up with 3 accounts and 150Gb of free data storage. I plan on using GoodSync to 
back up to Box.nethttp://Box.net all my important files. One note, you cannot 
upload a file larger than 100Mb, which shouldn't be too big an issue for me.

You can use the free version http://www.gladinet.com/ to also see all your 
cloud storage devices as folders on our desktop.

Hope this works for some of you!
