acceleratedRendering

[Randy Hengst via use-livecode]

Hi All,

Given what we’re heard about iOS12 problems with LC apps… and the suggestion 
that setting acceleratedRendering  to true in preOpenStack “solves” that issue 
with iOS12, I’ve been messing around with acceleratedRendering for the current 
LC project I’m developing for iOS. I have not used acceleratedRendering in so 
long, consider me unknowledgeable about its use.

I’m working with LC 9.0.1 RC1 with MacOS 10.12.6 and Xcode 9.2. But, I've seen 
essentially the same results when building with LC8.1.8, 9.0.0 

When setting acceleratedRendering to true in preOpenStack as shared in an 
earlier message, the IDE slows to a crawl. When setting acceleratedRendering to 
false, the IDE returns to normal responsiveness.
— is that the expected behavior?

When loaded on my iPad, the app I’m working on has shown partial screen updates 
with acceleratedRendering on… and with some aspects has actually slowed to a 
crawl when loaded onto an iPad. 

To check this out, I’ve included buttons to set acceleratedRendering to true 
and false so I can change the setting when the app is loaded on my iPad… when 
set to false, the app responds as I would expect, but when set to true again 
one portion of the app slows down to unusable speeds.

The fact that the IDE slows to a crawl… and that only some aspects of the new 
app I’m building slow down when loaded on an iPad has made this very confusing.

Is there some element that goes hand-in-hand with acceleratedRendering that 
I’ve overlooked?

be well,
randy

Newbie Regex confusion

[David V Glasgow via use-livecode]

I am just dipping my toes in the shallows of regex, and have already stubbed my 
toe on a rock.  Well two, actually.

I am looking to identify the lines of a field (that contain lots of words and 
symbols with no particular structure or separator ) finding age related terms, 
which can be in a variety of forms.  I made a list of the terms that I want to 
use.

First problem:

I use the following filter line

filter lines of it with regex pattern i

… where i is a keyword lifted from my list.  Oddly, where i is just ordinary 
characters, it works fine.  However if it includes a wildcard symbol, it chokes 
with “execution error at line 9 (matchChunk: error in pattern expression), char 
1”.  For example, if i = child* (intending to match child, childlike, 
childhood, childish etc).  I know that’s a bad example, because just ‘child' 
will do the trick.  However, there seems to be some voodoo needed to put a 
regex expression into a variable, is that right?

Second problem is the sheer brain ache from trying to work out how to 
efficiently  match lines containing 8 yo, 8 yr, 8yr, 8yo, 8 year and 8year, but 
not 18 year, 38yo etc etc.

The simplest way would be to include all variants in the keyword list.  
However, that means more sweeps through the repeat loop.  And it wouldn’t solve 
the problem of excluding  18 yo, 28 yo matching, unless I can construct a regex 
expression which will test the absence of any number between 1 and 9 
immediately before the actual string I am finding.  

Am I on a wild goose chase here?  




Best Wishes,
David Glasgow

Re: LiveCode Server on CentOS 6?

[Keith Clarke via use-livecode]

Thanks Richard & Brian for digging into this.

Lacking the Linux knowledge I tried working backwards from LC Server 9.0, 
trying 8.0 and 7.14 with no joy (internal server 500 error codes) - though 
whether the issues are down to glibc version dependencies is beyond me.

Earlier versions have less/no documentation in the packages and seem to only 
have 32-bit downloads available, which could introduce other issues (as the 
server is running 64-bit CentOS 6).

I think it’s time to stop flogging this particular dead horse and find an 
alternative dev environment pending target VPS OS upgrade, but thanks to all 
for trying.

…and that opens another can of worms that may warrant another thread or two - 
apologies in advance! :-)

Regards,
Keith

Re: Newbie Regex confusion

[David V Glasgow via use-livecode]

Thank you both.  Wow.  Looks like it really is worth the effort!  I played 
around on regex101.com, but the problem is if you don’t know the terms for what 
you want to do, its really hard to find the appropriate symbol.

Thanks again.

Re: Newbie Regex confusion

[Stephen MacLean via use-livecode]

Hi David,

While no expert on Regex, there are some online tools and libraries that you 
can use to work out the appropriate regex before putting it into your LC script.

Some sites I use:

https://www.regextester.com

https://regex101.com

https://www.rexegg.com/regex-quickstart.html

and 

http://www.regexlib.com

which has a lot of pre-built regex codes and examples. Most work without issue 
when putting them into LCS.

You can also take a look, if you haven’t already, at an example that I made 
using LCS and LCB, rsIsValid: https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?t=26653

HTH!

Re: Newbie Regex confusion

Don’t have time to test right now but something along these lines:

\b[0-9] ?(yr|yo|year)

\b is a word break
? Means 0 or 1 of previous char (space)
| is alternate separator

Thanks,
Brian

Richard,

The explanation that addresses your first question can be expressed in a 
very long-winded manner but also boiled down to this: It's RHEL's 
approach to enforcing stability. They and their clients are interested 
in a system that gives them no bad surprises. This takes into account 
the fact that many of those clients are using complicated proprietary 
software for critical tasks; commercial software and/or software 
developed in-house, which is expected to be fail-proof. There's is an 
obviously ultra-conservative approach, but you can't deny they've been 
successful at what they do :D CentOS naturally inherits the result of 
this philosophy.


The perception of extreme stability, along with the fact that it's one 
of only a very few OSs supported by cPanel, make CentOS very popular 
among hosting companies. All versions of RHEL and CentOS are supported 
for ten years which by design is to eliminate a disruption of services 
caused by forced upgrades. This sometimes leads to hosting companies 
running a version or two behind the latest, which can result in the 
problem Keith is encountering.


Keith has admitted he doesn't have a lot of knowledge and skills in 
Linux, so a managed VPS is a great solution for him. (I feel pretty much 
in that same boat. There are probably a lot of people trying to manage 
their own VPS who shouldn't be! Being well versed on maintaining a Linux 
desktop does not begin to address the skills and knowledge a server 
admin needs.) So, he's a little bit at the mercy of his hosting company. 
Of course the market is open and it's relatively easy to switch hosts. 
There are several distros that would qualify as reliable enough for 
server usage including a few that aren't as widely available as the more 
popular ones. Debian and Ubuntu are totally valid along with CentOS and 
those are probably the most widely available in hosting packages.

Ubuntu's LTS (Long Term Support) releases serve the same goal, with 
similar methods:  patches are allowed, security patches can be 
automated, but new features are held back until the next LTS release.


It's a tough call, though, with supplemental packages getting long in 
the tooth.  In addition to the potential vulnerabilities, older packages 
can introduce their own compatibility issues, as we've seen here.


I tend to stick with only LTS releases myself, so I appreciate the goals 
with such things.


But unless one is managing a legacy system with known dependencies on 
older packages, using a more recent version would seem a good fit, esp. 
for non-experts, as it establishes a fresh baseline using the latest and 
greatest.


I guess the missing piece of the puzzle here is why his VPS service 
doesn't offer CentOS 7. But as you say:


Of course the market is open and it's relatively easy to switch hosts.

(0x631ef8dfd000)

libpcre.so.1 => /usr/lib/libpcre.so.1 (0x631ef8b8b000)


Don't worry about the first line where there is no returned path. Some 
systems may return those like this "linux-vdso.so.1 => 
(0x7fff6000)" with the memory location after a "=>". There may 
be one or two of those. What's important is that if something is not 
found or is found but in a mismatched version, you will see an explicit 
message stating as much, like so:


libfontconfig.so.1 => not found

If you try running 64bit LC-server on a 32bit machine or 32bit Server on 
a 64 bit machine without any of the 32 bit libs, you will probably see 
the message that the file is not a dynamic executable.


Here's a little bit about ldd that you and others might find helpful:

Re: acceleratedRendering

Yes I just patched it https://github.com/livecode/livecode/pull/6620

^ is not a very good description of the issue. The touches are fine. It’s 
groups not redrawing when scrolled under some circumstances.
