Re: LC Server & Server Based Stack?

It was mostly in response to having lc (in cgi mode) talk to a different
(non-http connected) process.

Re: LC Server & Server Based Stack?

2017-01-08 Thread Phil Davis via use-livecode

Hi Mike,

It sounds like you're talking about things that apply when your server 
stack is used in a long-running LC process. If you run in CGI mode, you 
don't have to deal with some of those things (like figuring out when to 
reload a stack). Personally I'm glad the on-rev default is CGI mode.

It isn’t you know. Everything you need is linked from the README here 
https://github.com/livecode/livecode . 
The only platform that is complicated to build is Windows and that’s largely 
because we need to use very old tooling to support Windows XP.

We do nightly builds and the occasional manually triggered build. We use them 
to manually confirm our bug fixes worked as we intended. I believe we have an 
unadvertised service for a fee to access these internal builds so if you need 
that then it’s worth asking.

Last I checked it takes about an hour and a half to build all platforms and 
installers etc.

Our process is:

- all patches are built and automated tests are run on the free CI server 
Travis for 64 bit Linux and OS X
- if that passes then someone manually reviews the patch and others might chime 
in with comments
- If it is reviewed OK then we have a bot that polls the github api to check 
for reviewed patches and build against all platforms just to check it builds OK
- If that passes then the patch is merged and the nightly build that includes 
it will be installed to check it so it can be closed on bugzilla.
- The nightly becomes a release once everything we want in has been checked

Cheers

Monte

This is my preferred method by far, at least for what I do. My 
"index.lc" landing page looks like this:


Hi Pingdom!"
exit to top
end if

set the errormode to "inline"

-- use lib folder as the default folder
put url ("file:/home/myaccount/myproject/config/libfolder") into tLibFolder
set the defaultFolder to tLibFolder

try -- let the stack script respond to the request
start using stack "projectname.livecode"
catch tErr -- error messages from 'throw' commands
put "ERROR:" & CR before tErr
replace CR with "" in tErr
put tErr
end try
?>

Then the "projectname.livecode" library stack put other stacks into use 
depending on the nature of the request, and together they do absolutely 
everything. (They merge data into pre-made HTML pages and serve them, 
but also keep track of training accounts, titles, licensing, training 
sessions, you name it.)


Names have been changed to protect the innocent. ("Dragnet" music plays

Re: LC Server & Server Based Stack?

2017-01-08 Thread Stephen Barncard via use-livecode
some stack use info as used in web app RevIgniter:

https://revigniter.com/userGuide/general/using_stacks.html

by the way, RevIgniter is a self-contained framework that you might find
useful for all kinds of web development in livecode.

It might be a little different than your own programming style, but John
Craig's creation is a living example of the "Model-View-Controller" concept.

stacks are great with LC server. For instance, one can use custom
properties and libraries just by 'start using' that stack.

I'm not sure about fields but I think they are accessible too.

And one can test and edit everything 'on the ground' first.

Hi Andre,

See in

C:/Users/your_user_name/AppData/Roaming/RunRev/Preferences/ folder

You should see one or two files there:

livecode.rev --> Prefs for LiveCode versions < 7
livecode7.rev --> Prefs for LiveCode 7 and 8 and 9

I suggest removing both of them.

Best,

Panos

I’m trying to find out if anyone has ever

If so, could you please point me to some good

Re: how to create a list in easyJSON

2017-01-08 Thread pink via use-livecode
In the most recent version of easyJSON, numeric keyed arrays will turn into
JSON arrays, older versions may vary. 

fastJSON does this by default, but it can be overridden by passing true into
the keepNumeric parameter: 
arrayToJson(pArrayData, keepNumeric) 

for example: 
put arrayToJSON(inputArray,true) into jsonOutput

LC-Magick Collection

2017-01-08 Thread hh via use-livecode
Added today #5: Circular (Polar) Image Distortion.

The distortion output is, not only in LC, somehow "jagged" at the border. I 
tried
to "soften" border using graphic effects. Bernd (bn) already showed me a nearly
perfect method for #4 (will be updated soon), sadly this can't handle 
transparency.
To everybody who's interested in image distortion methods:
Is there a general improvement for my method/settings in #5 (see the script of 
btn
"Effects")?
