2023-04-10 Thread Mike Kerner via use-livecode
something new, today:
ios, 968 or 969
mature app that has been in production for a year
remote debugger included

install
both ios and mac are on the same net
lc has accept permission through the firewall
run app
remote debugger never connects, like executing the breakpoint command
causes nothing to happen.

Re: revXML and UTF8

2023-04-10 Thread Brian Milby via use-livecode
Are you sending encoded data to libXML and then decoding the data you pull out?

In the first bug report in the thread, if you textDecode the output from libXML 
then it renders with the smart quote.

I recall this topic coming up before but I don’t mess with XML and can’t recall 
more details on it (could have been in the forum too).

And, as of LC9, there was a generic issue with revXML and Unicode. See

I have no idea if this was ever resolved. The bug has been "Hibernated"

Re: [[ ANN ]] Release 9.6.9

2023-04-10 Thread panagiotis m via use-livecode
Hello Mike,

MacOS 13.x was supported in previous LC versions too. If your goal is to
build iOS apps, it is possible even with Xcode 13.2 on MacOS 13.x. Yes,
Xcode 13.2 won't run on MacOS 13.x, but LC just needs Xcode 13.2 to "be
there", since it does not run Xcode directly. it just uses some command
line tools that are bundled within Xcode.

Kind regards,
Panos

Interesting… When I uncheck “Hide Obsolete Packages”, the “Android SDK Tools” 
appears.   Although, it says “Android SDK Tools (Obsolete)”.

Hello Dan,

i am not sure what exactly your problem is.

Do you just not  see the any SDK Tools listed on the tab or do you just not see 
the version that you want to install?
If the latter then "enable" the option "show package details". This will show 
all available SDK tools.

I am following the directions 
(https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4069/l/985962-livecode-and-android-studio) to 
install Android Studio on my Apple M1 Max Mac.   The instructions say to select

tab of the Android Studio Preferences.   Did I do something wrong, or do I have 
to download this manually?   If so, where do I get this?

Currently, when I select the “sdk” folder in LC’s Preferences, I get the 
dreaded “The chosen folder is not a valid Android SDK. Please ensure you have 
installed it correctly, and enabled support for Android 10.0.” message.

Any ideas?

Re: revXML and UTF8

2023-04-10 Thread Paul Dupuis via use-livecode
Look up textEncode and textDecode in the dictionary. Text from or to a 
file needs to be decoded or encoded since LC 7.

Hi list,

My problem is that all non-western characters appear as

Should I use unidecode for each revXMLNodeContents ?

Re: Unable to load Preferences LC 9.6.9rc3 and Levure 9.0.5

2023-04-10 Thread Mark Waddingham via use-livecode

On 2023-04-08 14:58, bob--- via use-livecode wrote:

I'm wondering if anyone might be able to help me out. I’m trying to
use LC 9.6.9rc3 with an app built with Levure. With LC 9.6.9rc2 I am
able to open the app in the IDE with no issue.

When I try to open the app with LC 9.6.9rc3 I get “An error occurred
while initializing the application [unable to load external
Preferences]”. I’m tracing through the Levure script now and can see
in fact the Preference stack is not being loaded. I’ve confirmed
Preferences.bundle is at the location referenced in the script.

Can anyone steer me in a direction for a fix to this?


So you'll need to (for now) use `Get Info` on LiveCode.app in Finder, 
and ask it to 'open in rosetta'... Then when building any standalones, 
disable generating a the arm64 slice (you can do this in the MacOS pane 
of standalone settings).


The reason is isn't working is that the preferences external included in 
Levure does not have a ARM64 slice - so won't load when the engine is 
running using that architecture.


The preferences external will need to be rebuilt with an arm64 slice and 
included in Levure.


(When looking at this the other day, I did notice that Levure has an LCB 
extension which can do preferences stuff on macOS - bypassing the need 
for an external, but I couldn't see how you opt to use that instead of 
the external).


Warmest Regards,

Mark.
