Re: Livecode Array Encoding / Decoding using other platforms?

2019-05-20 Thread Tom Glod via use-livecode
Hey Richard..

Thanks for that tip of undertanding about the array encoding.  Explains why
its really fast.

Its not really the encoding / decoding speed i am thinking about.  Lets see
if I can explain better.

I can try to read C code in the codebase to see if i can see how the data
gets processedmaybe i will peek out of interest ...if i can even
find the arrayencode function in the c codebase

Its probably easier to encode into Json and baseencode any binary
data..and just deal with text chunks instead of blobs.

But either way I have to decide soon what to write in the specs for the
service.

thanks as always, don't worry about the notes,

LC's arrays are encoded and decoded in machine code. Just how fast do 
you need that?


Is there some method by which this encoding happens that is standard 
and

can be decoded using non livecode platforms?

Livecode Array Encoding / Decoding using other platforms?

2019-05-20 Thread Tom Glod via use-livecode
Hi Friends, I love the convenience of encoding arrays into binary chunks
for saving and transport.

But while doing data processing ideally I'd like to be able to decode my
livecode arrays in other more high performance languages.

Is there some method by which this encoding happens that is standard and
can be decoded using non livecode platforms?

What can I do to learn more about this encoding?

I thought about using Json but I love the support for binary data in lc
encded arrays, and the LC encoding and decoding speed seems very high.

Thanks for any hints on this.

ok if i'm correct, these m3u files are text files which you could open 
and then use the links in it, in say a loop or something


so it is not some kind of special file format, only the extension is 
different


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M3U

see the examples of the wiki page how they could be build up, maybe this 
helps

Reading a file from icloud on ipad

2019-05-20 Thread William Prothero via use-livecode
Folks:
Is it possible to read a file from the iCloud drive, in iOS, using LC?

I’m trying to read a csv file downloaded from my browser, into an application 
that will use that downloaded file.

I can’t immediately see how to do this. If I use a browser widget, where will a 
downloaded file go? I can also download it manually using Safari, which is ok, 
but then I need to access the file from the iCloud drive.

Any direction you can provide would be much appreciated.

Best,
Bill

Re: [ANN] Release 9.5.0 DP-1

2019-05-20 Thread Klaus major-k via use-livecode
Hi Panos,

"Release Notes" page 17
The big blue headlines reads:
LiveCode Indy extension changes
Then next line:
PDF widget

However the fineprint reads:
PDF Widget
A PDF widget ... is available in LiveCode Business.
...

It should be made clear that the PDF widget is only available in LC BUSINESS
and not in INDY!

Re: LC and live video streaming

2019-05-20 Thread JJS via use-livecode
We did something similair with a simple HDMI-stick on which Android was 
running, with an auto-startup and then it run several AVI files from 
internal memory.


I don't remember if a list can be made using VLC, but probably it could. 
Very cheap and simple to do. No need for LC, but if you want to have 
more fun maybe write a nice app for it

Hi list,

I have a request from a client who needs an app that would play
a streaming tv continuously in the lobby of his company, and the
tv stream should be interrupted from time to time to display a
short corporate video, and then back to the video stream.

I am wondering if this could be done with LC, may be using VLC
as player...

Any suggestion ?
Thanks in advance.

Re: [ANN] Release 9.5.0 DP-1

2019-05-20 Thread Bob Sneidar via use-livecode
These features look really nice! I'll play with it. Out of curiosity, has 
anyone addressed the nested behaviors for datagrids issue? The latest 9.0.4 
does not seem to implement this.

Re: There is a file

I'm trying to see if a PDF file is already opened. I won't know what app has it 
open. Might be Reader, might be Acrobat, might be PDF Pro Office etc.
