Re: Has anyone published an iPhone app that works on iOS 14?

2020-10-07 Thread Graham Samuel via use-livecode 
Answered my own question, or rather there is an answer in the Xcode 
documentation under "Create a simulator configuration”. Turns out a whole lot 
of other devices are hiding there, certainly including the iPhone XS.

Sorry I disturbed the list.

Re: Has anyone published an iPhone app that works on iOS 14?

2020-10-07 Thread Graham Samuel via use-livecode 
Sorry to return to this topic, but I just tried to do what Paul did, and I 
failed: this is because the Simulator on my copy of XCode 11.5 wouldn’t allow 
me to simulate the device I actually have, an iPhone XS. This model can use iOS 
14, let alone 13.5, which as far as this version of XCode goes AFAIK.

Can anyone tell me how to get a list of all the viable iPhones for this iOS 
level on the 11.5 simulator? Obviously I have done something daft.

thanks for the hint, setting a quite high margin is what we use as a workaround 
currently.

Re: Compress/Decompress Inclustion?

2020-10-07 Thread J. Landman Gay via use-livecode 
Compression is part of the engine so you shouldn't need an inclusion. I've 
seen this error before and usually it's because the string has been altered 
in some way or wasn't compressed with LC or a compatible app.


Do you use binfile when retrieving the file from disk?

In InfoWallet I store attachments as encrypted and compressed files on disk.

When I build InfoWallet in LiveCode 9.6.1 and attempt to decompress and 
decrypt the file, I get an error that the data is not compressed. The file 
is definitely compressed.


I’m manually selecting inclusions. Do I need to add compress and decompress 
as an Inclusion? If so, which Inclusion would it be?


Here is the error:

I see this when the margins are too small to accommodate the ascenders of

It is different symptoms from this bug 
(https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22882) but it could be 
related in the code?


I recommend filing a bug report and I will be happy to add a note 
connecting the two bugs. The more issues found surrounding "the 
formattedWhatever" functions, the more likely we may see action at 
fixing them sooner rather than later.

Re: Compress/Decompress Inclustion?

2020-10-07 Thread matthias rebbe via use-livecode 
The last sentence in the dictionary for decompress/compress says
'The (de)compress function <> uses the zlib compression library.'

So i would say adding 'Revolution   Zip" under inclusions should solve your 
problem.
