Re: [ANN] Facebook Lib
Hi Folks, Once you authorize once, Facebook stores some cookies. So the next time you ask for authorization it will only flash the RevBrowser window because as soon as we open it and ask for the authorization dialog, facebook recognizes who it is and redirects straight to the authorization callback with the tokens. If you logged and authorize as some user and want to authorize yourself as some other user instead, you need to call fbLogout() function. This function will call facebook to remove the app permissions for the logged user and remove the data from the script local array used to store the tokens. The next time you call fbAuthorize then you will see the dialog. This all happens because the webview inside RevBrowser stores local data from Facebook. There is no way around it unless we start injecting Javascript into that window and thats a recipe for bugs. I've updated the library and you should download again from the link you received. The current version is numbered 1.4, it appears that sendowl system is not sending the update emails. I will add some update checking routine to the stack. Richard, I am writing a better manual that you will enjoy. Cheers On Sat, May 3, 2014 at 10:18 AM, Richard Miller w...@together.net wrote: That sounds about right.

Re: Oauth in Livecode?
Howard, As far as I can tell this article is a complete FUD. What it is saying is that someone could use the redirect URL part of the OAuth 2.0 cycle to redirect you to some place else. This is the same thing as opening any phishing site. If you open a website, click for example Login with Facebook and click OK for all the permission requests, you're giving away that information to the site. There is no real limit to what it can do with that info. If the Login with Facebook (or any other OAuth 2.0 button) has been tampered or fiddled with by someone with bad intentions so that it redirects to some evil site and steal if your info this is not a flaw in OAuth 2.0, this is how the web works. The thing is that people will give their access to their personal information freely without thinking about the consequences. Next time some site is asking for access to all your profile information, plus your friends, plus your contacts, plus everything, you should think why does this site needs this information?! People often just click Allow without thinking. This was all solved by Mozilla with Persona Login system that shared no information besides attesting that someone was really someone. Unfortunately and probably because it would not allow profile information to go thru and was minimal and federated, it never saw strong adoption to the point where its on community maintenance mode. I still use it everyday to log into Mozilla properties such as our Bugzilla.

Re: Comparison of Speed of LiveCode with PHP
Hi Peter, Thanks for your testing! I think we're approaching this performance issue wrong. Most webapps will be I/O bound and not CPU bound. Calculations are not the most common thing going on but I/O in the sense of reading and writing from database and files are. Also the only way to deal with structured data in memory in a straight forward way is LiveCode multilevel arrays but there is no built-in way to serialize these arrays for consumption outside of LiveCode. For example, a common thing these days is to have your client-side HTML5 code calling back your server-side code for more information which is normally presented in JSON but LiveCode has no built-in function for JSON encoding and decoding, so both operations happen in pure transcript (or whatever they are calling it these days) which will make it really slow. If we want LiveCode to have better performance we need ways to improve I/O. Things that would be good and have a real impact out of the box: - JSON and XML encode and decode functions in the engine. - Non-blocking DB routines A different issue is scalability. Right now, LiveCode Server works in CGI mode which is very straight forward but it is not the most scalable thing under the sun. When I say scale, I am not saying things such as serving 5.000 users. Serving a couple thousand users is easy. I am saying serving some hundred thousand users with complex server side logic, afterall doing 100.000 hello worlds is easy. PHP is going thru lots of revolutions in the form of the Facebook initiatives such as hack (new PHP variation), that VM they created and the little compiler they created which I forgot the name. The PHP developers are also pushing PHPNG and other gizmos. Even current generation PHP is not usually server with CGI technology. Ruby, Node, Python, Clojure, Java, none are served with CGI. Most of them could be used as CGI but no one is using them this way. CGI is easy but it is not scalable. Imagine that if you were serving 10.000 concurrent requests on your little server farm, you're have a collection of 10.000 LiveCode server processes between your servers. What we need is something like Python WSGI or a non-blocking engine such as Node. Then we could with a simple pool of couple LiveCode engine instances serve a lot of people.

I came up with a test based loosely on Carl Sassenrath’s Rebol Speed Script ( http://www.rebol.com/cgi-bin/blog.r?view=0506 ). I have found it a useful base for writing comparative scripts (either comparing languages on a single machine or comparing machines using a single language). It is far from perfect in a multi-tasking environment but I believe provides decent comparative data. I have attached two scripts, speedtest.lc and speedtest.php. I’m sure that both could be improved significantly and welcome such improvements. The results of running the two scripts on my machine, LiveCode 7.0.0-rc-3 and PHP 5.5.14 are: Schulz:LiveCodeServer peter$ ./speedtest.lc LiveCode Speed Test Started The CPU test took: 2851 ms The Memory test took: 3656 ms The File System test took: 1975 ms LiveCode Speed Test Finished Schulz:LiveCodeServer peter$ ./speedtest.php PHP Speed Test Started The CPU test took: 3921 ms The Memory test took: 1200 ms The File System test took: 666 ms PHP Speed Test Finished So it seems the LiveCode has the edge on PHP when it comes to calculations but not on memory access or file access.

Re: [OT] Android Material Design
Dave, Do not count brick in the same box as material design. Material Design is the new HIG for Android, Web and ChromeOS properties of Google. It can be used from Java and from HTML5. On HTML5 it uses Web Components which can be used in Browsers that do not support Web Components thru the Polymer polyfill and libraries. Mozilla Brick uses the plataform core library from Polymer Project and builds standard Web Components out of it. Right now Brick is changing directions and is nowhere close to the current HTML5 implementation of Material Design. Back to LiveCode, the best way is to be inspired by Material Design and create your own interface by using beautiful fonts, plain old rectangles and some of the new graphic effect to give the illusion of depth which is important in Material Design. One could craft some reusable LiveCode groups that implement this type of thing but it is not reusing nothing from Google, its just a new thing that is inspired by.

Re: Comparison of Speed of LiveCode with PHP
Eons ago I created a library to do FastCGI from LiveCode. Even though my library supported multiplexing stuff LiveCode could not respond to more than one user at a time. If LC was multithreaded or had co-routines or fibers or whatever lightweight gizmo they could create in Scotland to let us run more than one thing at the same time then FastCGI would be viable. As it is, FastCGI is worse than CGI for LC because with CGI we can answer more than one user at the same time by spawning new processes. With FastCGI, while the request was being processed, no other request would be answered. Thats not a FastCGI limitation, the protocol is way smarter than CGI you receive all requests on the same port and you're supposed to fork(). Since we have nothing like forking on LC, we're dead on that front. The main issue is that without multithread, fork or something similar that would allow us to delegate some execution of handlers to another context and thus enable us to execute multiple stuff at the same time we can't implement FastCGI.

Re: eBooks and LiveCode
eBooks these days basically mean one of the following file formats: * PDF * mobi * nook * ePub * amz These formats can be generated from any tool that can process text data and binary files. ePub for example is nothing but some xml and html inside a zip file. LiveCode can't generate those in the sense of creating a stack with cards as chapters or pages and generating a standalone but it can be used to create tools that automate the generation of the popular ebook files. So instead of creating ebooks with LiveCode, you create a tool to create eBooks with LiveCode On Tue, May 31, 2011 at 7:30 PM, stgoldb...@aol.com stgoldb...@aol.comwrote: Like many publishers, we are considering developing a number of our titles as eBooks.

[TEASER] It is Alive! SFTP support in LiveCode
Folks, Today, more precisely at 3:03 AM, the SFTP external worked for the first time and transfered its first file. It was a simple text file called test.txt whose content was simply YES, but hey, it worked. The SFTP external is based on libCURL and libSSH2. Right now I managed to build it only for Mac OS X with x86 processors but I think I am able to build it for PPC and Linux as well. Windows might be a little tricky since I am out of a windows machine right now. The main issue was that the libcurl version that is bundled with Mac OS X has no SFTP support, so I had to build my own from source and that had dependencies such as libssh2 and others. After some effort, I could finally build everything and managed to convince XCode to link statically with them (XCode kept trying to link with Mac OS X bundled curl library). So after linking for the first time, it managed to transfer a single text file over SFTP connection. Right now it is a blocking call till I figure out how to do callbacks. There is a silly movie proving it here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1340110/XcodeSnapz002.mov or if you want to view it over the web: http://www.vimeo.com/24707584 (it is waiting in line to be converted right now) There is still a lot of work to do before releasing this external but we're now much closer to SFTP support in LiveCode. This external will be commercial and will probably cost about USD 99 to cover my costs of developing and the amount of tea I am drinking to calm me down after working with gdb... :-D Now, who among you all is felling like a guinea pig and want to join the beta tester group? Initial beta will launch for Mac OS X and then Linux, after that I will worry about Windows. -- http://www.andregarzia.com All We Do Is Code. ___ 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

Re: Software Order Processing Service?
Actually I need the IPN solution to process the purchases from the Facebook library, so they are both being done together. Four things are being developed together since I need them all working before I can start selling stuff: * CMS built with RevServer, code named Beluga, this is basically a blogger clone or mini WordPress. This will serve my website. * PayPal IPN libraries for RevIgniter. This integrates with Beluga to form a shopping experience. * The Social Network Libraries, built for desktop, mobile and server. They are my first product for sale and will be used inside Beluga. * SFTP external code named three-legged hippo, this is my second product. I need this working because I don't trust FTP and disabled FTP access on my own server. So all these go together to form my new presence on the LiveCode community. And most of those tools are being developed for linux first (go tux go) I know people are waiting but I am doing this stuff on my spare time.

I don't have any extra info regarding that. Its just that as unix-friendly developer, I see no advantage in Lion for me. From a user perspective, both iCloud and Versions are really attractive but I have a heterogeneous ecosystem here with Macs and Linux machines and Android, WebOS and iOS machines, so any technology that is Apple only, is not attractive anymore. For 11 years, I've been an Apple advocate here, I still recommend it to my friends because I know it is better than Windows and requires less maintenance but for me, all I need is basically an engine and a terminal, then, I am happy. :D (Pro Tools and FCP have no competition... they are just great) On Sun, Jun 12, 2011 at 10:43 PM, stephen barncard stephenrevoluti...@barncard.com wrote: I'm involved with trying to keep up with Pro Tools and whatever replaces Final Cut Pro - I may have no choice.

Re: Distinguishing CLI from GUI
if you can live with a script launches instead of calling the standalone directly then you can set some environment variables by hand and then check the on the startup handler, something along the lines of: standalone.sh: #!/bin/bash export ARGS=$1 ./standalone.x86 And then you check for the environment variable called ARGS 2011/6/13 Björnke von Gierke b...@mac.com err, sorry for being unclear.

For example, if you start the application by typing the following shell command: myrevapp -h name then the global variable $0 contains myrevapp (the name of the application), $1 contains -h, and $2 contains name. In my tests here, it seems this is only partially correct: $0 contains the app name from the command line (myrevapp in their example), but $1 contains the name portion after the -h option flag, and the flag itself does not appear in any $ variable. I have an app in which I'd like to have two different behaviors, depending on whether it's being run from the command-line or as a GUI. This would be easy if the engine worked as described in the Dictionary so I could easily detect if the user launched it with -ui, but it seems the option flags are not being passed to the application, though everything that doesn't begin with - is. So my question is two-fold: 1. I've tested this on Windows and Linux and get identical behavior, in which the - flags aren't present in the $ vars. Can anyone here confirm this on Linux, Win, or OS X? 2.

That the $ values exist at all would indicate commandline, but it's not inconceivable that one might want some conditional behaviors based on whether or not the app is running with a gui, thus storing the -ui flag could be helpful. Such refinement is naturally only useful if the basics can be relied on, though :( Actually, the $ vars will contain the paths to any files the app is launched with in the GUI too, which is why relying on the presence of the $ vars alone won't work for me since our apps read those values to determine which files to open at launch. Thanks for confirming what Mark Weider discovered, that flags used by the engine (-ui is among the very few that are still used) aren't passed along to the app. It seems other args not used by the engine are passed along, however, so we can design our own syntax as needed - quite exciting, in a geeky sorta way. :) For now it seems I can use the window ID to figure out whether the app is launched with -ui; in my testing on all three platforms the window ID of the mainstack is 1 when launched with -ui, but not when launched with the GUI. Extra bonus points: When using R, MySQL, Mongo, and many other apps, I'm in an interactive mode in which the app provides its own console UI and its own prompt. It may be useful down the road to be able to provide such an interactive mode for the command line, but I've been unable to wrap my head around using stdin and stdout to do this. So far, I can only pass args to the app, have it process those, and deliver output from them and quit. How can I set up my own interactive mode from the command line, and can I make a custom prompt to signify to the user that they're in my app? if you do put in a standalone, it will echo its message to the stdout, so that gives you output. You can try reading from stdin to see if you can get keyboard input, never tried though. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World LiveCode training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for LiveCode developers: http://www.LiveCodeJournal.com LiveCode Journal blog: http://LiveCodejournal.com/blog.irv ___ 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 -- http://www.andregarzia.com All We Do Is Code. ___ 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
thanks for the tools
Folks, This is just a little email to show some appreciation for Ken Ray, Richard Gaskin, Chipp Walters, Mark Wieder and Jerry Daniels. Kens XML Lib saved my life many times but what I want to talk right now is about DropTools. Since I installed it, I became much happier and I am already thinking about building and sharing new controls. The architecture is easy and simple just the way it should be. Ken, Drop Tools Rock! (I wish I could replace LiveCode toolbar with DropTools toolbar and have a single place to drag controls from) Yesterday, I dusted up my old G4 and went for source code hunting. I lost a lot of data some years ago when both my intel machines fried up at the same time (the main development machine and the main backup clone, two identical macbooks, both fried). So while I was recovering from my bad Lion installation, I decided to go back to the G4 to fish for some tools I liked. The G4 booted fine and Revolution 2.7 launched with GLX2 (I also found constellation there) man that editor is GREAT, Jerry should really be proud and Mark too. I've installed the newly patched GLX2 on my Mac and it is great. Talking about Jerry, there is a little tool that he made that I think is really great, it is a simple thing but it is really useful and it is Time Gadget. Time Gadget is a time tracking tool that is compatible with altToolbar. I used that all the time and will keep using it indefinitely probably. I think it is a great example of building really useful tools, Jerry makes products with great usability, I wish he would still maintain TimeGadget or consider giving it to some developer to maintain, it is a great tool. Marks recent work with GLX2 and PowerDebug adds a lot of power to our development cycle. How many times I wished for some feature to be present in LiveCode built in debugger... now, most of them are in PowerDebug :-) Yay! I've already talked about altToolbar many times but I think many in the LiveCode community are not aware of it. Chipps altToolbar is to plugins what DropTools is to controls. Man, so many great plugins. I still use magic carpet, interface designer and time gadget. I have my own silly plugins as well thanks to Chipps insight in creating an extensible architecture for altToolbar. Well, I got my first contract thanks to Richards beyond the browser article but that is another tale, right now I am thinking about Devolution toolkit. It is a simple extensible toolset, not unlike altToolbar with some great stuff inside. I know Richard still works in it and may release an update someday but the current Devolution incarnation is very good. The only thing I miss is an updated form maker... I loose a lot of time building forms in LiveCode... During the recent years we had an influx of many new users who never used these tools, many who are not aware that these tools exist. My advise to the new guys and gals here is: Grab them, use them! and to all the authors, you guys rock Cheers andre -- http://www.andregarzia.com All We Do Is Code. ___ 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

Don't know about HTML5 (and maybe Andre can step in and say something here as well), but having spent way too much time on rev-HTML conversion, I can say that even with Ajax and css file help there are some insurmountable problems without serious server-side help. These problems fall under the general categories of lack of threading and multiuser issues. FastCGI (when available) helps the multithreading issue but exacerbates the variable namespace collision problem. Since there aren't transactions in HTML you either end up in a situation where you don't have persistent variables or multiple users clobber each other's variables.

Re: Wondering about LC and HTML5
Chipp, I tried that but I couldn't build the language tree parser, so I started coding from the other point, assuming there would be a parser, I started coding the javascript parts to be used by the parser/converter once it was done but when I lost my HD I lost basically everything. Both my main machine and my backup fried at the same time, so, it was lost but it is not hard to recreate again. I have a new project now (I still call it revImpossible) but instead of focusing on translating LC to JS, I am focusing more on the workflow and helpers and eventually I will get to the translating part. :-D On Mon, Jun 20, 2011 at 10:45 PM, Chipp Walters ch...@chipp.com wrote: Well, I talked with Chris. He said he remembers years ago someone built or started to build a language tree parser for Rev so they could transcode Transcript to another language. Once a Transcript language parser is created, you can move it to other languages-- or so the theory goes. Chris imagined it would take a couple weeks to do such a thing, assuming not all tokens were supported, just the main stuff. Of course, language conversion is only a small part of the problem. I'm thinking one would want to adopt an Open Source set of Javascript controls and convert them to DropTools, so they match exactly the look/feel/size of the real thing. Then each would have a custom inspector which set the properties and methods. And there needs to be some sort of MVC framework put in place (libraries?). Still, according to Chris, he believes a lot of what you need to do can all be done client-side in Javascript-- at least that's a good place to start. I can imagine a proof of concept HyperCard like demonstration, with different gui widgets and some biz logic, all running local.

Folks, I just can't resist, this thread is just too good. Here is a movie I just recorded: http://andregarzia.com/movies/revimpossible.mp4 http://andregarzia.com/movies/revimpossible.webm As I said, the trick is to start by thinking that you are building a web page, not a stack. In this little demo video, I show a simple web layout stack with graphics, patterns, images, text and buttons. RevImpossible converts this stack to a valid web page. I show the page and the source code for the page. It is all very clean. I am not yet converting code of any type, right now my focus is to convert the layout. After the layout is right, I have a plan about doing the coding part but don't expect to script a desktop stack and magically have it on the server, that is not how it will work. My idea is that the stack script will become a RevServer page. Some controls will RPC back to the server. Right now I will not attempt conversions into JS. RevImpossible is just a way to code a whole website from inside LiveCode IDE, it is not a desktop to web converter. It will make each card into its own page. It will output stack script and card script as server side components. It will remove the compile cycle since RevImpossible is powered by RevOnRockets so it works from inside the IDE itself while you are coding, you tweek your layout and code and refresh the browser, just that. When happy, you export the whole thing and upload it. RevImpossible does not attempt to be a way to build full web portals or make the new google, it is a quick way to prototype sites and to create small medium websites. and no, it is not ready, I named it RevImpossible for a reason, but it is going places... I will shortly begin fundraising campaings for this project and others.

Re: [OT] Amiga OS in 2011
the newton was under a magazine on the sofa, someone thru a hard suitcase on top of it, the screen broke but the newton was responsive enough that I was able to dump all my ROM... now my ROM lives in my MacBook Pro under the Einstein emulator. I almost bought a new newton these days, but right now, I have other priorities. :-) Another favorite is Haiku (http://www.haiku-os.org ), it would be my desktop of choice if LiveCode supported it but right now, I don't even dream of asking for support. It is such a niche platform that no business case can be made to RunRev to support it. In my ideal world, all my desktops would run Haiku, my servers would be BSD and my mobiles would be WebOS. Now, have you guys notices that all my favorites are unable to run the LiveCode engine, that is why I am locked with macs one day maybe this will change, but not right now.

[TEASER] Google OAuth 2.0 demo screencast
Hello Folks, Today I managed to implement Google OAuth 2.0 authorization with LiveCode. The library is very simple to use, it will authorize you but it will not help you with the other thousand Google APIs. All it does is authorize access to protected resources, you then access those resources using the normal API for the given resource passing along the authorization code you received. To show it working, I have a little webcast where I use the library to access my Google Contacts data. The Google Contacts API will return an XML with the contacts. http://andregarzia.com/shots/shell-20110705-1.webm http://andregarzia.com/shots/shell-20110705-1.mp4 This OAuth 2.0 library is a part of my soon to be released Social Networks Library Suite. Most of Google services are already available thru OAuth 2.0. The new Google+ service has no API right now but Google will provide one soon and it will be available thru OAuth 2.0 (all new Google APIs are). The social network library suite will be dual licensed. Open Source developers can use the library for FREE provide they abide by GPL rules. Developers wishing to close their source will be able to buy a commercial license. The initial offering will (probably) be: lib.aag.json BSD License A simple library for converting JSON to Revolution Arrays lib.aag.google GPL Commercial An OAuth 2.0 authorization library for Google Services lib.aag.facebook GPL Commercial An OAuth 2.0 authorization library for Facebook along a minimal wrapper to help with their API I will soon start a little fundraising campaing to help me develop these and other libraries further.

Re: defining and using globals in an application
Folks, I don't really know what the thread is about but since we're talking about globals, I decided to share my own methodology regarding them. I use globals in some stacks, specially the ones that are not plugins or tools that will be used elsewhere. In my little app stacks, I tend to use globals to share data because it is really easy but instead of using multiple globals for multiple values, I will have a single global variable per application and this variable will be a multi level array. So if my application stack is called recipe app, I will have a global called gRecipeAppA and that will be an array, values will be inserted, queried for and deleted from this single shared array and collision will be avoided by naming it something almost unique. :-) that is how I do it... =) ___ 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

Those that accessed my home page recently knew that it was not being updated often, actually, it was not being updated at all. I always wanted to recreate everything with LiveCode and now I've did it. I started yesterday, Friday and after a little more than 24h I've got a brand new website. This is a testimonial of how easy it is to build web stuff with the new LiveCode Server. This new page will serve as a hub for all my new developments and I plan to release many many many things during the next days and weeks. I welcome feedback and comments. http://andregarzia.com =) For those that want to know, this homepage is driven with LiveCode Server. It uses RevIgniter Framework. It uses no database at all, the pages are all text files with HTML and special syntax in it. Keeping it simple allowed me to deliver a full website in less than 24h. The site is easy to extend and change. Since I am the developer and the user, I don't need an administration interface, I can create pages by simply dropping plain text files in the correct place and tweek things by editing special files. __**_ 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-livecodehttp://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode -- http://www.andregarzia.com All We Do Is Code. ___ 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
Re: Rev Customer Databased Hacked?
Folks, I am speculating here but if the attacker just go some of the accounts then it is possible that the attacker hacked into some of the on-rev servers but not all of them, then, just the users on those machines were compromissed. I did not change my password, I am still deciding if I will do it or not. Again, if you have a need for utmost security, you should not be on shared hosting, you need to me on your own box on co-location with security experts on payroll. If you are on shared hosts, then, by default, you are subject to such attacks. Cheers andre PS: I have a lifetime on-rev account and am happy with it. I also have a VPS (it is as good as I can pay) for more sensitive stuff and I have one or two linodes.

Gregory Dear Gregory Lypny, I need to inform you that over the weekend we experienced an attack on our customer database. Although we caught this very quickly I regret that some information may have been compromised. A small number of accounts were affected, unfortunately yours was one of them. The information concerned includes your name, email address, on-rev username and the server you are hosted on. It does not include your password, or any postal address or billing information. This information alone does not represent a security risk. However, if you have any concerns at all that your password for your on-rev account is not secure, you should change it immediately. cPanel offers a secure password generator that includes numbers and punctuation in a random string, we strongly advise you use this service. We deeply regret this breach of our security procedures. We felt it important to inform you of it as quickly as possible as a precautionary measure. We have already traced and fixed the exploit that made this possible and can assure you that the same error will not happen again in the future.

Re: revmpossible?
Mark, It was not a joke but it is not a replacement for the web plugin. I am working on the social networking libraries and the CURL external first. I will only resume work on revImpossible when those are more or less working. revImpossible is a way to create websites from inside LiveCode IDE using LiveCode Server + RevIgniter. It allows you to design your site using stacks and it will generate HTML/CSS/JS and more from your stacks but it is not a replacement for the webplugin, you can't pick a normal stack and pass it thru it. It is made to create sites and not to convert stacks to the web. :-) I will try to post a video of the prototype working this weekend.

Re: ANN: LiveCodeErrors for iPhone
Using try/catch blocks, fiddling with the exception and throwing it again is a guaranteed form to destroy the errordialog window. 2011/7/19 Björnke von Gierke b...@mac.com I think one way to fuck up the error dialog is to supress messages when closing stacks by script, and then an error happens. At least this was a case I had about 3 years ago. There migth have been other particular settings or behaviour that triggered it, I don't remember exactly. And Rev error reporting is ass in general, not only when it fails to work as intendet :P On 19 Jul 2011, at 17:55, Richard Gaskin wrote: Mark Schonewille wrote: Richard, Since you are a professional LiveCode programmer, just like me, I know that you know that one may see an error code of the form ###,###,###, once in a while, where # is a number and x is a letter. Seeing this error isn't necessarily a LiveCode bug. I have no idea why you assume it is. True, the format you describe is what the engine outputs when errors are encountered, sent as the argument to the errorDialog message. But the IDE's revBackScript includes an errorDialog handler which translates that into a conveniently readable form, also made available for inclusion in standalones in the Standalone Builder. Given that RunRev provides this lookup automatically, no one should ever see the raw error data in either the IDE or a standalone. If they do it means the errorDialog handler either wasn't triggered properly, or is somehow failing itself. So my interest is in identifying a recipe in which an errorDialog message is sent but the info is being displayed in raw form rather than the more readable format LiveCode normally provides.
