Re: Non-blocking transfers ...

 The way others have proposed this in the past is to have an agent of some
 sort, a web agent or else a standalone app do the work for you, while your
 app periodically checks the status of the transfer in some way. I don't
 think that would work for iOS though.

Thanks Bob,
but ... yes, can't work on iOS (/don't know on android/).

Re: Non-blocking transfers ...

2012-07-17 Thread gpb01
Thanks, but ... it's for a library that I wrote totally in Livecode (/so ..
can run on any platform/) and I would like to avoid the use externals or
other tricks ... ;)

If I understand correctly, currently, in Livecode we have ONLY the load
(HTTP GET), and nothing else ... right ?

Thanks,

Guglielmo Braguglia

 Hi all,
 how to  use an  iPhone App as a remote control for an iPad app ?
 I am wondering if I can set any communication between two iOS apps
 (besides internet connection) ?
 Bluetooth ? Set a wifi intranet ? Socket communications?
 Is there any external to do  this?
 All the best

Hi Paolo,
yes, you can connect different devices using the socket and yes, there is an
external to use socket in iOS because ... socket syntax and functionality is
still NOT directly available on iOS (/planned for a future release/).

On externals look for *rrsocket* 

Ciao,

Guglielmo

Re: Does 'export image to file' give any warnings?

2012-01-26 Thread gpb01

Graham Samuel-4 wrote
 
 I'm using 'export image' to put an image into a file without invoking a
 'save' dialog - this is what my user wants. However, I can't see any
 obvious way of knowing that the new image has the same name has an
 existing one and would therefore overwrite it. I set up a button that does
 
 on mouseUp
put the defaultFolder into temp
export img ThePicto URL (binfile:  temp /meagain.jpg) as JPEG
put it=  ; result=(the result)
 end mouseUp
 
 However may times I do this, I always get the file meagain.jpg with no
 indication of any difference between the first and subsequent invocations.
 
 Obviously I can search the directory myself to look for the recurrence of
 the file name, and I guess that's what I'm going to do,but I wondered if
 anyone knows if this form of statement in LC produces any kind of error
 message and if so, how one can detect it. After all, any kind of 'write
 file' operation can fail.
 
 TIA

Hi Graham,
perhaps I did not understand well your question, but why you don't test for
the existence of the file before the export ?

You can just use : if there is a file temp /meagain.jpg then ...
... and decide what to do ... :)

Just for fun I tried with a small script you function :
   put convertTextToBinary(theText) into field outField

... and the binaryDecode :
   put binaryDecode(B*, theText, binText) into numItems
   put binText into field outFieldBin

both inserted in two separate repeat to repeat the same statements 200
times, storing the millisecond to execute.

Whit your function, on my Win 7 64 bit system, I have between 60 and 70
milliseconds, with the binaryDecode() + the put statemet (/... two separate
statements/) I have between 20 and 30 milliseconds  :)

So .. the Livecode binaryDecode + the put statement is minimum *TWO* time
faster than calling your function  ;)

Re: libURL Script Error After Upgrading to LiveCode 5.02

 The following two lines used to work fine in a startup script.
 
libURLSetLogField the long id of fld “Connection Log of card
 Connection of stack “Headquarters
libURLSetFTPListCommand “NLST”
 
 Today I upgraded to version 5.02 of LiveCode and I get the following error
 message.
 
 Handler:  can't find handler
 Object:   Sign In
 Line: libURLSetLogField the long id of fld Connection Log of card

 Hint: libURLSetLogField
 
 Any thoughts?
 

Yes, same behavior for me with different handlers ...
... there must be an error on Livecode 5.02 ... it seems to start your
application before he has finished loading its own modules :(

If you first open Livecode 5.02, wait until Livecode is completely started
and then you start your application ... no problem and all work fine.

Hope this help,

Guglielmo

 Hi Guglielmo,
 
 Thank you for your response.  I will do what you say while revising my
 app, but does it mean that the standalone will not be affected?
 
 Gregory
 
No, fortunately the standalone applications seem to work normally (/...
tried on OS X 10.6.8 and Win 7 64 bit/) ... :-)

Re: Mac OS-X standalone from Windows machine

2011-12-30 Thread gpb01

Levi Kendall wrote
 
 Hi All,
   I'm having a bit of a problem making a standalone application for OS-X
 from a Windows machine.  Actually making it is not the problem really,
 running it is.  The save to standalone works fine and I end up with what I
 am assuming is the executeable in a structure that looks as such:
 
 My Application.app \ Contents \ MacOS \ My Application
 
   What seems to be the problem is the file at the end My Application
 does
 not get the execute flag set on it when being transfered to the OS-X
 filesystem.  My current method of transport was simply to zip the entire
 directory and then unzip the file on the Mac.  This would leave the
 directory structure as is, which I'm assuming is necessary.  However the
 problem is the My Application executeable needs to have CHMOD run on it
 in
 order to properly execute because of the execute flag missing on the OS-X
 filesystem.
 
   Does anyone have any solution to work around this?  Is it necessary to
 have some kind of installer program to properly set this up on the OS-X
 end?  Or is there another way to handle it?  If at all possible, I would
 like to be able to handle this from the Windows machine, rather than
 actually needing an OS-X box.

Sorry, no problem here ...
... I created a new Test application on Win 7 64 using LiveCode 5.0.2, saved
and generated the Standalone for Win/OSX/Linux.

Next copied the generated folder (/which contains Win/OS/Linux versions/) on
a shared folder which I can access from an iMac running OS X 10.6.8, copied
on my desktop, double-click on the Test.app ... and the program started :-)
