Re: 3WDevolution question

Richard:
I’ve been playing around with this and noticed that if i move the IDE tools 
palette to the right far enough, the 4WDevo palette will move as far to the 
left as I want. So that tells me there is some interaction between the IDE 
tools palette and the 4W palette.

Again, if you can’t make it happen, I can live with it, especially now that 
I’ve played with it a bit more. It’s really pretty minor.

- - -


Sounds like a perfectly reasonable clause which is more protection for 
you than the contractor.


Basically it ensures that the Contractor will do necessary due diligence 
on the software licenses attached to any source-code they incorporate 
into the project being worked on to ensure that:


  (a) you as the contractee are happy with using said software under its 
published terms and are willing to abide by them (for MIT / BSD, that 
just means an 'open source licenses' file, which you need to one of 
anyway, as that is part of the commercial license terms of LiveCode).


  (b) will not let you get into a situation where source-code has been 
incorporated which means that you entire project must be released under 
some open source license.


Put another way the contractor is saying that:

  1) They will notify you of any parts which could be done using open 
source software, and with other options so you have choice


  2) They will not consider viral open source licenses (e.g. GPL) as 
being suitable for inclusion


LiveCode's licensing is pretty straightforward:

If you have a commercial license you have the right to use a downloaded 
distribution in any way which does not contravene the commercial license 
terms.


If you do not have a commercial license then you must be using the 
Community version, which is licensed under the GPL - which is viral - 
meaning that any software you create with it must also be distributed 
under GPL terms.


The two variants are, however, completely incompatible in terms of 
licensing - you can't take parts of (GPL licensed!) community and use 
them with commercial as that would mean your combined work would end up 
being GPL, but the commercial part is not, so you cannot distribute 
(which is a side-effect of the clauses in the GPL).


Specific example - you cannot take parts of (GPL Licensed, LiveCode Ltd. 
Copyrighted) source code, recompile and use with commercial - even if 
you have a commercial license. That requires a specific commercial 
source-code license for those particular parts (something which we will 
always consider on a case-by-case basis - although generally not for 
zero cost).


Warmest Regards,

Mark.

Here’s what I found on the palette thing. I’m no longer worried about the 
backdrop because it was just me not seeing that there was a LC toolbar menu 
item that would turn it off. In fact, I may have been blaming Devo incorrectly,

If you, in 9.0.1 RC 2 or 3, drag the 4W toolbar to the right, lift the mouse, 
then drag it back to the left, I see it refusing to be dragged fully to the 
left. In LC 8.2.0, it acts normally, but in  LC 9.0.1 RC3, it won’t return all 
the way left. It seems like it’s trying to leave space for the IDE Tools 
palette, but it doesn’t matter whether it’s visible or not.

Richard, I can live with this. I’m on a Mac. It should be very easy to

Quick question about the PreOpenBackground messages...

If you have 2 background groups that both use the same button as their
behavior with the following code:

on preOpenBackground
   put the short id of me after msg
end preOpenBackground

Wouldn't you expect to see the ID of both groups?
I'm seeing the ID of one group twice.

Slow LC 9 Performance - Test Stack, Video, QA Report

2018-09-04 Thread Curry Kenworthy via use-livecode



LiveCode 9 (as of 9.0.1 RC 3) is significantly slower than LiveCode 6.7 
in a variety of tasks. This is a huge problem, it affects many of the 
projects I'm doing, and I'm sure others are in the same boat. Fellow 
boat members: please join my bug report/feature request below!


The slowdown can be demonstrated both in test code and in real-world 
applications. The problem(s) may be in a specific area, but the actual 
effects on running code are widespread and fairly general, impacting 
multiple areas in my testing from math and loops to text, chunks, and 
arrays. I am posting some resources tonight to help draw attention and 
evaluate this problem, and requesting that LiveCode 9 be optimized to 
achieve at least speed parity with LiveCode 6 in these areas.


(I am encouraged that some LC engine optimization impacting arrays is 
already underway by LC Mark W., but I want to emphasize and prove beyond 
doubt that several areas are affected and not only arrays. Therefore I 
hope this bug reports and test stack(s) will help to confirm whether the 
optimizations underway also solve the other areas, or whether those 
areas need further separate optimization.)


Resources below.

A) QA Bug or Feature Request:

https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21561

Report on this problem (which negatively impacts end users for existing 
features) with 2 recipes and downloads (test demo code and real world 
application). If your own app or code is affected by LC 9 performance, 
please add your CC and a comment.


B) YouTube video: LC Version "Showdown"

https://youtu.be/8uhOem46VXg

Thorough demonstration and discussion of my tests and the results, 
pitting LiveCode 6.7 against the latest release of LiveCode 9 in several 
tasks that evaluate loops, math, text appends, array access, item 
chunks, and text replace.


JavaScript code is also tested and provided to provide additional 
reference. (Thanks Richard G. for the suggestion! Very interesting results.)


C) LC Version "Showdown" demo stack:

http://curryk.com/showdown.zip

The stack used in the video. See and test the code for yourself. 
Compares 6.7 and LC 9 (or others, you can use 7 or 8 too) for speed in 
loops, math, text appends, array access, item chunks, and text replace. 
(Also has effects used in video competition; this issue has been on my 
to-do list for some time, and I wanted a stack that looks good, makes 
comparisons quick and easy, and can serve as a useful platform for 
current and future tests.)


Some buttons have right-click or shift-click alternatives, these are 
listed in tooltips. If desired, paste the JavaScript (which is 
automatically placed on the clipboard after each test) into js.do or 
another web page to compare the JS speed to LC.


BTW, I'm only days away from a new WordLib release and have been doing a 
great deal of cross-version testing with it too. That, and Mark's array 
effort, were what prompted me to make extra time for this and get it 
posted today. WordReport is also due for an update, so is WordOut, and 
performance is something I take very seriously. Beyond that, I place the 
highest importance on all client app performance too.


WordLib code uses a variety of the code areas mentioned here, some 
arrays but not relying on them heavily in the work, so I consider it a 
good balanced real-world example of the impact of LC 9 performance. It's 
pretty hard-hit for big files, because many or most operations in LC 9 
take 2x, 3x, or 4x the time compared to LC 6. (In fact I think it's 
somewhat challenging to find substantial code that is NOT hit by LC 9 
performance. I found one example in 9's favor to include in the showdown 
stack and video.)


So again I wanted to emphasize it's not just arrays - that is proven 
here beyond any doubt in downloadable code and on video. I hope the 
array optimizations might help the other areas too, but if not, they 
need attention. Thank you! :)


Best wishes,

Thanks for writing, Bill.  I got your email as well, still catching up
on my In Box after the long holiday weekend.  Replying here is just as good.

4W devo does not alter the IDE's backdrop settings.  And unfortunately,
I'm not able to reproduce that here.

If you open LC's Prefs you should be able to turn off the backdrop from
there.

If you have any other details which might help me reproduce that I'll be
happy to see what I can do, but AFAIK there are no interactions between
4W devo's prefs and LC's.

Another oddity that I'm afraid I can't reproduce.  But then again, I
spend relatively little time in LC with the IDE's Tool Palette open.
I'll play around with it and see what I can find.  If you come up with a
step-by-step recipe for me to follow that would help.

Warren Samples' reply said it well.

Nothing to add beyond an appreciation for predictable licensing.  MIT,
Apache, GPL - all very popular and well known.

Proprietary software allows proprietary delivery, but with a very
complicated hitch: you have to review every license of every component
carefully to make sure all terms are compatible with one another.  This
is especially difficult with proprietary software since most licenses
are, well, proprietary themselves.

If one were delivering something under open source license, I would
strongly recommend using the GPL-governed Community Edition.  The
binaries are similar but not the same, and only the GPL-governed edition
gives you the right to redistribute the engine in standalone form under
GPL license.

Some of the best business advice I was ever given was from my boss when
I was doing contract review for an environmental remediation firm (talk
about loong contracts):

"Their counsel's job is to ask for the world.  Your job is to ask for
half of it back."

Your friendly neighborhood FOSS curmudgeon at your service. :)

The GPL expresses no opinion about charging a price for software.  The
"free" in "Free Software" is about freedom: you are free to use the
software however you like, modify it however you like, and share the
modifications with anyone you like.

As a practical matter, though, Free Software is also usually given away
without cost. This is not a licensing requirement, but merely a
reflection of the economic reality at play: if your user has the right
to share the software with anyone at any price or no price at all, they
usually will, so you'd sell exactly one copy.

It seems reasonable. They want to avoid any unanticipated legal hassles ($$$)

more freedom than some others.


That's my take as well. They're looking ahead to avoid conflicting 
licenses and keep out of legal trouble. I haven't seen that in a 
contract before, but now that I see it I'm surprised why not. No doubt 
it's a good thing that they pulled it out - it's something for the 
lawyer types to throw around.


A few years ago I found a clause in an nda that, among other things, 
stipulated that I was not to disclose the existence of the nda (!). I 
squawked about it and refused to sign and the lawyers struck the clause.

I tried looking at is from a very wide perspective and considered that portions 
of the LiveCode engine are open-sourced, even if we are using the closed source 
version. Since I am not a fan of being involved in legal situations, I also 
considered that the software takes advantage of the internet, servers running 
Linux, PHP and Apache. I do not want to leave any potential legal issues 
uncovered. So, we requested to have that section removed from the contract. 
Guess what? They took it out. Now I have nothing to worry about. Still found it

It seems reasonable. They want to avoid any unanticipated legal hassles ($$$) 
with open-source license holders, and also avoid having to turn over anything 
that they would prefer to be their own private intellectual property. They're 
on the ball. How this would play out could depend on which open-source license 
is involved. There are possibly some that they could accept since they allow 
more freedom than some others.

Re: Contractors and open source software

2018-09-04 Thread Bob Sneidar via use-livecode
The big question I have is, do they mean the app you develop is open source, as 
in my Forms Generator project for example, or do they mean developed with open 
source software? As far as I know, the Indy and Business versions are not 
considered Open Source, and so what you develop with them, unless you make it 
so, is not Open Source. 

The Community version license I think specifies that you cannot create software 
for resale, you have to purchase a commercial license, so you can't produce 
commercial software with Community without violating the license. 

I will be corrected if this is not the case.

3WDevolution question

2018-09-04 Thread William Prothero via use-livecode
Folks (Richard?):
Ok, I know this is really easy, I did it when I first installed it, and I’m 
probably just not seeing something, but ……..

I’m on Apple, 10.13.3 and LC 9.0.1

How do I get rid of the white background that covers the desktop when 
4WDevolution is launched? I have gotten used to Devolution and like it, but it 
has become a bit annoying lately.

Second question: Since 9.0.1 RC1 of livecode, the 4WDevo tool palette will not 
stay on the left side. It is exactly offset to show both the LCE tools palette 
and the 4WDevo tools palette. But, if I want to toggle between them, having it 
offset is a pain. I can move it over using the Desktop feature of 4WDevo, but 
then it pops back to the right after clicking on the 4WDevo palette. Or, just 
drag it to the right, then it won’t drag back to the left where it started.

Could somebody remind me of how to hide the full screen background? Since Devo 
only began the palette location wierdness since LC 9 RC 1, I assume it’s a bug.

Best,
Bill

I had to work through a contract recently. This particular section was 
interesting. Thought I would share it here. I changed the organization name to 
[company] to protect this well respected entity.

I can understand their view on the use of open source software. What are your 
thoughts?

- - -
Public Software. Contractor will inform [company] in advance of incorporating 
any open source software into deliverables or services provided to [company] 
under this Agreement, provide [company] with an analysis of alternative options 
that do not include open source software, and will proceed with the use of open 
source software only to the extent of [company]’s written consent. To the 
extent Contractor incorporates permitted open source software into products or 
services provided to [company] under this Agreement such open source software 
(and/or Contractor’s inclusion thereof) will not require any software developed 
or delivered under the Agreement to be disclosed or distributed in source code 
form or made freely available to others.

Timezone library - how to use in Livecode Server?

2018-09-04 Thread Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode
Hi,

i´ve just noticed that the new Timezone Library is not available under Livecode 
server. I´ve checked the Extension folder  of the desktop version of LC and  
found an .lcb file, which means that the library was written in Livecode 
Builder.

Is there a way to use such libraries with Livecode Server? Or are LCB libraries 
not usable under LC server in general?

Regards,

Matthias

RE: Play YouTube in Portrait and Turn Landscape

2018-09-04 Thread Ralph DiMola via use-livecode
Works for me perfectly(embedded YouTube). The audio is uninterrupted and the
video pauses for maybe 0.05 seconds and continues and remains in sync with
audio. I don't use the widget. I use the mobile control browser for 2
reasons. 1) there is no equivalent to "canretreat" or "canadvance" in the
widget. 2) no pinch and zoom on Android with the Widget.

 The fact I even mentioned video/audio syncing is just crazy! How
could we have rock solid synced picture and sound since 1927 until digital
video? This would seem like it should be video 101. I see it online AND on
broadcast TV. Really I turn off whatever I am watching and wonder why
the rest of the world can live with this pre 1927 hand cranked projector
with a cylinder victrola sync quality?

Nah, your good. This is really useful, and the error was trivial. You

I suppose it could be the target version but that shouldn't really matter. 
The minimum version should still apply. When my Android v6 downloads an app 
with a higher target I just get a warning in the Play Store that it may not 
be optimized for my device, but it still installs and runs.


Let us know if you figure it out.

It could be the minimum required version, check that first. Also be sure the
app has been signed (for development only is okay.) It can also happen if
the app manifest requires permissions or features that Android 5 doesn't
support.

Apps are also not installed if the device already has a previous copy with

androidRecorderStartRecording Fail on Second Attempt

2018-09-04 Thread Dan Friedman via use-livecode
Greetings!   If I use androidRecorderStartRecording to record on Android, it 
works perfectly!   However,  If I attempt to call androidRecorderStartRecording 
again duiring the same app session, it doesn’t work… it just halts.

Here’s exactly what I’m doing:

In a button I do this:

androidRecorderSetRecordFormat "MPEG-4"
androidRecorderStartRecording fPath 

Click the button again, and I do this:

try
   androidRecorderStopRecording //will error if not currently recording
end try

I can call "play fPath" and the file plays correctly.

Click the button again, and I do this (same as before):

androidRecorderSetRecordFormat "MPEG-4"
androidRecorderStartRecording fPath   //FAILS!  //yes, fPath is valid it's the 
same path as previously used

I tried to get the result after the second call of 
androidRecorderStartRecording but it couldn't report the result as it had 
already halted execution.

I don't see a androidRecorderReset.  Also, I tried deleting fPath thinking it 
worked when there wasn't a file, but that didn't help.  If I reboot the app on 
the device, it will work again… but only once.

Any thoughts?   

Thanks in advance,
-Dan

Handy, but it didn't quite work correctly. I selected all but the 9.0.1 rc1, 
and tried to uncheck confirm, but it confirmed anyway, and deleted everything 
but the first 8. I had to do multiple passes before I got them all. 

Clicking the confirmation checkbox did not unhilite the button, but rather 
showed and hid a green checkmark icon.

Android install on Lollypop 9.01 rc2

2018-09-04 Thread Ralph DiMola via use-livecode
I have a tester that can't install an apk on a v5 Android device. All that
the package installer says is "App not installed". No other error message.
Anyone seen this??? Is this that min version thingy?

Thanks in advance...

Re: Where's Fraser?

2018-09-04 Thread Lagi Pittas via use-livecode
Yes it is him, his linked in says he works for Dejero.

I hope he tells them to use LC going forward - especially on the Raspberry
Pi.

Would be nice if he was still on this list and popped in and said Hi.
