Thanks for your input.
I think you are correct that the memory access comparison isn’t fair. I don’t
have time right now but I’ll try to come up with a better comparison.
I’m not convinced that the file comparison is fair. If LiveCode is appending
the data to the file rather than
Hi Andre
I agree with your comments on the appropriateness of the tests. I’ll give some
thought to incorporating more I/O based tests.
Do you think that having FastCGI support so that LiveCode could be run behind a
load balancing server would be an improvement from a scalability point of view.
The benefit of FastCGI would be that the Fast cgi instance would always be
running and would not need to be restarted every time a .lc script is
parsed saving on the execution time.
Even as a CGI process, LiveCode should already be able to run behind a load
balancing server,
Kind Regards

Eons ago I created a library to do FastCGI from LiveCode. Even though my
library supported multiplexing stuff LiveCode could not respond to more
than one user at a time. If LC was multithreaded or had co-routines or
fibers or whatever lightweight gizmo they could create in Scotland to let
us run

Most PHP installations will not allow file_get_contents() to be run on

Stack menus are far more primitive than that, going back to the very

The menu builder has been a problem since runRev's beginnings... it would pay

Another way to get the same result is to copy an existing menu group and

Hey LC'ers
How the heck to you pass focus to the next positioned field? I am trying
to simulate the tab key action of tabbing if the user hits the enter or
return key instead inside of the enterInField and returnInField commands.
Thank you!

Hi.
If the fields are in order by number, then in the card script,
on returninfield
focus on fld (the number of the target + 1)
end return infield
on EnterInField
returnInField
end enterInField
If they are in some other order, you should be able to modify as needed...

This would let you go forward and backwards, but you can already do this with
no code by using the tab key:
on returninfield
if the shiftkey is down then
put the number of the target - 1 into f
if f = 0 then
put the number of fields into f
end if
else
put
if exists(field ((the number of the target + 1)) then
focus field (the number of the target +1)
else
focus field 1
end if
Should work. Then, you can set it up as a behavior for your fields and be
done with it. (or whatever alternate method you like)

Still sketchy about the last time you actually created a menu from scratch
