Re: TSNet error 6
It happens to other users in other places, but only occasionally -- though we haven't got a whole lot of users yet, mostly just the client and some testers. The reason we started looking into this is because the client was giving a demo and it totally failed (ouch. He was trying to sell it.) So we started trying to reproduce the problem. None of us had any trouble on our home networks. One of us went to a coffee shop and could reproduce it there. The client had the problem at the location of his demo, went home and still had the problem, then suddenly at home it started working again. Up until that day he'd had no issues on his home network (I wonder if it was storing the DNS from the demo site. Is that a thing?) It is always the same error and is unpredictable. We're sending the tester back to the coffee shop on Monday so we can experiment with turning off https. On 9/2/17 8:39 AM, Ralph DiMola wrote: I would zero in on the https thing.

"The network connection on iOS devices is generally more transient than normal network connections and can change between wireless and wide-area wireless (GPRS, 3G, EDGE etc.) transport as it moves, and indeed be lost entirely.

Yes indeed. A central index for all components, regardless of type or license, is essential for platform growth and for serious development. For open source projects, IMO GitHub is an ideal location. But it isn't the only such service, and there are good projects on many services, so probably best not to limit the index to those hosted on only one. For proprietary projects the range of share locations may be even broader, since there's no requirement that the location provide collaboration tools supporting public contribution. There may be many good reasons why a developer might prefer to share a resource through any number of other sites, or even their own. As long as the resource is check-summed and the domain is ensured with a good SSL cert, I don't have a lot of opinions about where a shared resource physically resides. Beyond basic file and domain integrity, it seems to me it doesn't matter so much where the file lives, as long as an index exists in one well-known location to be able to find it from. An ideal index could allow good searching via a minimum of these fields: - Resource name - Category and perhaps subcategory of functionality - Resource Type (external, widget, library, template, etc.) - Author/Publisher/domain - Date of first release - Date of most recent release - Minimum compatible LC version required - License type (GPLv3, GPLv2, MIT, BSD, proprietary, etc.) - Keywords in full text of title/name and description - Vendor-supplied tags - Crowd-sourced tags that any registered user of the system can add to It needs to be API-driven, so we can build a UI for use in the IDE, write our own ad hoc tools for finding and updating components, and enjoy the SEM benefits of having the index also available in the web. With that I could, for example, easily search for an image filter library made available under GPL-compatible license and instantly find Tom Bodine's excellent toolkit in one move. Background -- Many of us saw a need for resource sharing, and the ease of delivering that right in the IDE, from the moment we saw the old MC Examples stack, before the turn of the century. I found that download-n-go very inspiring, and eventually I made the time to deliver the first publicly-sharable index in the modest Stacks section of RevNet in Dec 2003 (since renamed as "LiveNet"). The following year RunRev Ltd. made RevOnline as a more complete solution for our community, to share not only stack files but also externals and code snippets. (To support the goal of a single index and also relieve myself of potential security concerns, after RevOnline premiered I restricted and later removed the ability for public additions to RevNet.) Later on RevOnline's upload went out of commission for a few years, and in response several community efforts sprung up, including a nice index-focused offering from Shao Sean. None of the community-driven repositories or indexes ever really gained critical mass, because during that span of years there were periodic announcements from RunRev Ltd. (now renamed LiveCode Ltd.) that they were going to complete RevOnline to restore its upload capability, refine its listing (e.g., it isn't sortable), and expand its functionality to include more resource types (first externals and now widgets). RevOnline's account management and upload features were eventually restored. But during that time it also became renamed, rather variously, so that today few people can piece together that "RevOnline", "Sample Stacks", and "LiveCode Share" are all more or less the same thing (further muddied by that repo containing script snippets, yet a different facility named "Sample Scripts" is entirely separate from "RevOnline"/"Sample Stacks"/"LiveCode Share"). In addition to picking one name and sticking with it, as reported earlier in this thread apparently the file upload feature needs further refinement. And at a minimum it should probably be enhanced to include indexed fields for license type and to support widgets. Meanwhile, other tools have demonstrated the value of a central index with things like NPMJS for Node, PyPy for Python, CPAN for Perl, CRAN for R, the listings of modules, themes and plugins for Wordpress and Drupal, and others. Many of those repositories are maintained by their respective communities. Options Going Forward - There's no question of the need or the value. The only question seems to be: should this be a community project, or one created and maintained by t
Subject: Re: LC and OneSignal
I have read many great ideas for this project. Could I contribute another? This repository could include an index of LiveCode properties, commands and functions used within these stacks and handlers. Klaus Major already published a handler that saves all stack scripts as a text file. Could this handler run automatically from LiveCode server? Using this index of properties, functions and commands, all developers could find easily many practical examples that show how to use LiveCode API. And now that we are talking about indexes Could we have statistics and a few charts about this content too?

RE: TSNet error 6
B, Yes I assume that if I get a response in 2000 ms the link is fast enough. The text file should work but seeing I need the backend server for app functionality this test also makes sure that there is good connectivity and the web server/LC server is functioning in one test. In one of my apps the user can save notes about each location retrieved from a static local DB. These notes a saved in a second local DB and also uploaded to the server for backup. So... I need to keep "last update" dates on both the device and the server and resolve this with every transaction and also on app startup just in case the user lost connectivity and saved a note locally to the device. I try to deal with all combination but I'm sure there some obscure race conditions that I am not handling, but it's not moving money, air traffic control or launching the space shuttle.

Thanks...Andy, Alex & Mark!! I think we can find a solution. *Richard*, this sounds like the perfect open source community project. What do you think?? We can host the stuff on GitHub, but create an interface within the IDE with an online DB that can be queried. we could slap a simple RestAPI on it and people could query it to get helpful code snippets and usage examples and complete App examples. Digital Pomegranate could host the DB, or better would be LC. They have to just drop a MariaDB or Postgre SQL [sice mySQL is not an open source favorite anymore] and we can create a simple API to post or pull from it. What do you think??? That is another thing off the core coder's plate so they can focus. We coul deven to the RestAPI in LC script as an example of how to setup an API using LC on the server??? - Nice!! --Todd On 01/09/2017 22:44, AndyP via use-livecode wrote: > Enhancement Requests added to the Quality Center for Sample Stacks > > Good ideas ! ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
