clipboardData on Mobile?

[Dan Friedman via use-livecode]

Greetings!

Is there a way to set the clipboardData a mobile device?  (iOS and Android).

Client want's a "copy" button so they can paste the text outside of the app (in 
Notes, or a external document).

Re: revCopyFolder in LC Server

[Neville Smythe via use-livecode]

Thanks Matthias. I would not have guessed that from the Documentation which 
simply says that revCopyHandler is available for “desktop,server”.

I was thinking I would just use a one-line shell call to replace the handler … 
but I suppose I should install the whole shebang

Scheduling xAPI in LiveCode (Week 4 -5)

[Martin Koob via use-livecode]

Hi All,

I am sending this out for Brian Duck.   We are trying to see when we're all 
available for xAPI in LiveCode (Week 4 -5). 

Please visit
https://www.when2meet.com/?10848261-ZWeng
to let us know when you're available.

The Spring 2021 xAPI  Cohort starts next week with its first session on 
Thursday Feb 4, 2021 ( think the time of the session is 2:00 pm EST (-5 UTC) I 
will check and send out a confirmation) so if you are interested register for 
that as well.https://xapicohort.com/  

Members of this group have been discussing setting up a team in the xAPI cohort 
and discussing a project to pursue for that team during the spring 2021 
semester of the xAPI cohort.

Thanks,


Martin Koob

Re: revCopyFolder in LC Server

[matthias rebbe via use-livecode]

Neville,

revCopyFolder is part of the revCommonLibary which is located in the folder 
Tools/Toolset/libraries within the LivecodeIDE app bundle (MacOS) or program 
folder (Windows).

The file revCommonLibrary.livecodescript is not included in the LivecodeServer 
Installation files by default.

You could either copy that library into your LivecodeServer folder on your 
webserver  and make use of the complete library or you just use that part that 
is needed and include that in your LivecodeServer script.

This is the complete revCopyFolder Handler from the common library

on revCopyFolder pSrcFolder, pDestFolder
   if the last char of pSrcFolder is "/" then delete the last char of pSrcFolder
   if the platform is "MacOS" then
  if "applescript" is in the alternateLanguages then
 if there is not a folder pDestFolder then
create folder pDestFolder
 end if
 do revAppleScriptFull("copyFolder",pSrcFolder,pDestFolder) as 
"applescript"
 if word 1 of the result is "folder" then
#Copy successful so don't return anything
return empty
 else
return the result
 end if
  else return "Error: AppleScript not installed"
   else if the platform is "Win32" then
  revSetWindowsShellCommand
  if there is a directory pDestFolder then
 set the itemDel to "/"
 if char -1 of pDestFolder is "/" then delete char -1 of pDestFolder
 
 local tLastItemOfSrcFolder
 put item -1 of pSrcFolder into tLastItemofSrcFolder
 put "/" & tLastItemofSrcFolder after pDestFolder
 create directory pDestFolder
  end if
  
  # TH-2008-03-11 : Fix for 5465, should remedy problem with copy sometimes 
crashing on vista
  # now use robocopy instead of xcopy if operating under vista.
  if the systemVersion is "NT 6.0" then
 get shell ("robocopy" && 
revWindowsFromUnixPath(quote&pSrcFolder"e) && 
revWindowsFromUnixPath(quote&pDestFolder"e) && "/E /NFL /NDL /NS /NC /NJH 
/NJS")
  else
 get shell ("xcopy /I /E /Y /R" && 
revWindowsFromUnixPath(quote&pSrcFolder"e) && 
revWindowsFromUnixPath(quote&pDestFolder"e))
  end if
  
   else
  get shell ("cp -rf" && quote&pSrcFolder"e && quote&pDestFolder"e)
   end if
   return the result
end revCopyFolder

revCopyFolder in LC Server

[Neville Smythe via use-livecode]

I get a “Can’t find handler (revCopyFolder)” error in LC Server from a script 
line
revCopyFolder tTemplateDir,tDirPath

The script works up to that line. Is there a problem with using revCopyFolder 
in LCServer?

Re: open secure socket... using certificate

[Bernard Devlin via use-livecode]

Hi Tom

You shouldn't get any hopes up. I'd commented in the bug report in 2014
that this was something that we'd been told was coming back in the days of
LC version 2.


I think when a development environment has failed to deliver a feature from
version 2 to version 10 that thing is never going to appear.

Re: open secure socket... using certificate

[Bernard Devlin via use-livecode]

Thanks for confirming it Mark.

I feel like a sucker. I started on this project a few months ago on the
assumption that socket certificates now worked as they'd been included in
the Dictionary for years. I was away from development for a few years and
hadn't noticed the complaints that the Dictionary was misrepresenting the
situation.  Depressing to see my own name in that bug report from 7 years
ago, pointing out that secure sockets with certificates was something that
we'd been told was on the horizon in LC version 2, which must have been
around 2004.
