Remove the first "binfile" usage, so your code reads like this: put URL tNewImageLink into URL ("binfile:" & tNewFolder & "/" & tNewImageName) I used the following to test download to the desktop and it works as expected: put

Not to say that TSnet bug doesn't also exist but What iOS version? your problem is an exact mirror of issues I'm having here in the shop with my iPhone 7+ and after a recent upgrade … completley unrelated to Livecode. But our netadmin keeps saying "your wireless hubs in the office look fine to

Re: Rooting around in the Forum: destructors

Thanks for the explanation: although, to be honest I've never really quite worked out what the difference is between Object-oriented languages and Object-based languages (I know that LiveCode is object-based). If being an Object-based language means you have pre-made objects to play around

Re: Rooting around in the Forum: destructors

Short answer: LiveCode doesn't have destructors because the xTalk family of languages doesn't require them. xTalk languages make the life of the developer easier by taking such tasks our of their hands. 1a) Yes, under the hood, because LiveCode is written using variants of C, which are object

Re: tsNet licensing error using the business version of LC server

Indeed, LC server Business does not differ from LC server Indy. Anyway, all I would like to achieve is to get access to the extended feature set of tsNet Business on LC server. Would be a pity if this is not possible, as this was one of the main reasons I purchased a LC Business license. Ralf

Re: tsNet licensing error using the business version of LC server

Ralf, are you sure there are an indy version and a business version of LC server? isn´t it just a commercial version? At least in my account the downloaded lcserver for my indy license seems to be the same as the one for my business license. Anyway, this does not help with your problems. ;)
