Re: Could not encode class bundle

Could you put "answer the result " before throw "could not encode class bundle" in the revSaveAsAndroidStandalone script? That should give us a clue as to what the error is. On Fri, Dec 22, 2017 at 7:13 PM J. Landman Gay via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > On 12/22/17

Re: [ANN] Release 9.0.1 RC-1

By the way, we forgot to add to the 'highlights' the fact that we have updated the target sdk of the android build to API 26, and added a fixed target SDK version to the template manifest. This should mean that apps built with 9.0.1-rc-1 will be accepted into the Google Play store without any

Re: When me is not me

In theory that shouldn't be the problem - `the of me` should short-circuit to directly evaluating the property of the object with the behavior, rather than evaluating `me` as a name first. This is why `put the long id of me into tID` also works. Peter, in your original script are you doing set

Just looking at the code in MCKeywordsExecCommandOrFunction, it seems that there is no provision for passing to a 'global handler' (eg mobile-specific handlers or cameraControl handlers). On Tue, Apr 10, 2018 at 3:35 AM Brian Milby via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > I did

Re: Has Anyone Got A Directory "Walker" Available

Now that we have files(pFolder), folder(pFolder) (and files(pFolder, "detailed"), folders(pFolder, "detailed")), directory walking code can be improved somewhat by not having to set the current folder. Actually, I haven't checked what happens when you get files(pRestrictedFolder) On Fri, Apr 20,

Re: Has Anyone Got A Directory "Walker" Available

Ah, it will throw an error - so best to use try / catch around the function calls. On Sat, Apr 21, 2018 at 9:13 AM Ali Lloyd wrote: > Now that we have files(pFolder), folder(pFolder) (and files(pFolder, > "detailed"), folders(pFolder, "detailed")), directory walking code

Re: Guessing game

Probably there should be an example that illustrates the use of the into clause in that way! On Mon, Apr 2, 2018 at 10:00 PM Ali Lloyd wrote: > Yes, or the return value of a function > > On Mon, Apr 2, 2018 at 9:39 PM Brian Milby via use-livecode < >
