Re: Livecode Future - End User Cost Extravaganza

2024-07-28 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
Wow… just catching up on this thread, and I have to say, I am more confused 
than ever!  Not sure the licensing model needed to be this complicated and 
questioning if LC even knows who its end user is and what we are developing.  I 
don’t mean to be trouble here, and I am probably misconstruing fact / 
speculation.  If so, I apologize.

Having said that, one should take notice at radical licensing model change 
failures, such as Unity.  There are lessons to be learned out there.

For the record, I love LC and its power and simplicity.  I hope this all works 
out in the short term (and long term!)

Best regards,

SKIP KIMPEL

Livecode / Github

2022-08-18 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
Greetings!

Been a while since I have been on this list.  Working on a new project and
wondering if the backing up of Livecode files to Github was ever
implemented and created.  I know there was talk of it at one time.

I apologize if it has been in place for a while and I am just out of the
loop.  Actually, I HOPE that is the case!

So to give you a full sense of the ugliness of the CSV I am working with,
here it is:  (trying to add certain columns but because some columns have
multiple "thousand dollar+ amounts, it throws doing an item count.  Need to
get rid of all dollar signs (easy) and all the commas that are part of a
thousand+ dollar amount)

Most streamlined method to get data

2021-07-29 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
I have a variable that contains:

,Name,,,Quantity,Total,,,Percent

,Dine In,,,189,"$4,812.71",,,57.96%

,Take Out,,,72,"$1,676.43",,,20.19%

,3rd Party,,,54,"$1,779.35",,,21.43%

,Bakery,,,3,$34.83,,,0.42%

,Total,,,318,"$8,303.32",,,


What is the best way to get 8303.32 from that last line.  Obviously, the
complexity is the commas and getting rid of the dollar sign as well.


I know I am going to kick myself when somebody answers I am blank this
morning.  (NEED MORE COFFEE!)

Actually, just looked and another field that is nchar(10) is also receiving
the "?" result so it has nothing to do with the "max" parameter.

Re: Also looking for MSSQL integration person

2021-07-26 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
I think it is how I have everything setup something is getting lost in
translation.  Keep in mind it is only two fields I am getting the "?"
results back instead of the text contained inside.  The MSSQL data types of
those two fields are: nvarchar(max).   Interestingly enough, I have other
nvarchar fields coming through just fine but the difference is the "(max)"
piece.

It is a Azure SQL server and because I have not been able to figure out how
to do a direct connection to it, I am using an ODBC connector with
32/64-bit ODBC Driver 13 for SQL server.

Does this help at all?  I went through all the encoding types but they all
failed using the textEncode when I say fail, I mean not the desired
result.

Maybe I hone in on the "max" piece of that code??

Problems with text data fields pulling from SQL

2021-05-12 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
I am pulling data from an Azure MS SQL database using an ODBC connection.
All data comes across just fine EXCEPT for data with field types of
NVARCHAR(Max).

When those fields arrive to LC, it shows up as a question mark "?".

Any reason why this would happen?   Any resolution to this?

Best relational database for IOS / Android

2020-04-29 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
Good morning,

In your opinion, what is the best relational database to use for an IOS /
Android application?

Being a PC guy and always living in the Microsoft world, I always default
to SQL, however, with my latest discoveries of the complexities involved
and lack of support in LC I don't think that would be the best move at this
point.

Suggestions?

Re: Counting unique items in a file

2020-04-27 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
All of that works perfectly.  Thank you everybody!

Let's through a layer of complexity in here... each of of those names has
another column with a time associated with it, for instance "13:02:58"
 I would like to only show the LATEST time associated with that particular
name.

Premise behind this whole exercise:  I have a list of drivers and I want to
produce a report that shows the driver name, number of jobs (both of these
accomplished through the last script) and when they finished their last
delivery.

Should I just break this out into a separate function or would it make
sense to modify this function to fit these additional needs?

Counting unique items in a file

2020-04-27 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
Good afternoon LC'ers,

I am loading a tab delimited file into a variable and I need to pull out
all unique names from a certain column (let's say column 10) and count how
many times that name appears in that column.

I know there has to be an easy way of doing it.  Every time I try to start
coding this it get wyyy too long :)

Simple approach?

You did not over simplify at all!  I used your basic concept and tweaked it
and then applied it to my nested repeats and BAM... got it.

Even Distribution

2020-04-16 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
I have 15 "jobs" that need to be assigned to 7 "drivers". How would you
evenly distribute the jobs to the drivers?  In this case one of the drivers
would have 3 jobs while the others have two.

Obviously, the number of drivers and number of jobs would fluctuate.

This has been my mind twister for the night thus far :)

Re: Livecode and AWS Sql

I downloaded the ODBC Administrator for Mac but when I click to add a
connection, it has a blank drivers box.  Like you said, Bob, you need to
load the SQL drivers.  Where can I download these drivers from?   I
originally started down this path with not a ton of luck.

Thank you,

Re: Livecode and AWS Sql

2020-04-10 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
Interestingly enough, I brought over everything to the Windows side to test
there and I STILL cannot connect!  This might go back to an AWS question OR
remote SQL question.  Ralph, do you normally connect to SQL via your local
machine/local network or do connect to remote SQL servers.  Going back in
my internal memory banks, I don't know if I have ever connected to a
remote, cloud based SQL server before.

Re: Livecode and AWS Sql

2020-04-10 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
Just a as follow up, I installed that Xcode 11.4, ran the previous script
and it looks like it installed properly. HOWEVER, I still cannot connect to
my SQL database.  Also, by doing that, my Mac mobile
development environment disappeared.  I have since uninstalled 11.4 and
went back to 10.1.

Beyond frustrating... I must be getting old ;

Re: Livecode and AWS Sql

2020-04-10 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
Unfortunately, I don't think it is that straight forward.  I went down this
path already.  The files that you can download are Windows MSI
installation files.  You can run it manually by using the following
commands:

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" brew
tap microsoft/mssql-release
https://github.com/Microsoft/homebrew-mssql-release brew update
HOMEBREW_NO_ENV_FILTERING=1 ACCEPT_EULA=Y brew install msodbcsql17
mssql-tools

However, when I run the last command, I get:

Error: Your Xcode (10.1) is too outdated.

Please update to Xcode 11.4 (or delete it).

Xcode can be updated from the App Store.


Do I really need Xcode in order to install SQL?  I also thought I read that
I needed to Xcode 10.1 in order to be compatible with the latest version of
LC.  Maybe I am wrong here.

I did an uninstall of the Android Studio and re-installed it.  After that,
it worked.  Go figure!

Very helpful, thank you Colin. and I knew it would not be that easy.
 Now I get a message that says "The chosen folder is not a valid Android
SDK.  Please ensure you have installed it correctly, and enabled support

Problems locating Android SDK

2020-04-05 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
I am relatively new to Mac so if this is an easy fix, sorry for asking.  I
have installed Android Studio and the SDK is located in my user/library
directory.  I figured out how to reveal the library folder using Finder but
when I try to browse to the SDK location in Livecode settings, I am not
able to get there.

Can anybody help?  This is driving me nuts because I  know it is a quick
fix.

Thanks,

Strange times, amazing projects

2020-04-03 Thread Skip Kimpel via use-livecode
Good afternoon LC'ers (evening to some),

Enjoyed the Zoom chat today and it was good to see all of your faces
again.  It has been way too long.

Over the past couple of years I have been sidetracked from LC as I have not
had the need to be as hands on as I once was.  Now, however, I am forced to
pull out skill sets and take on projects / challenges that I have not done
in quite some time.  Actually, it is quite exhilarating.

I won't get into details about the project as a whole right now (but I
can't wait to share it with you all when it is done) but I have a challenge
that involves mapping and coordinates and I am trying to wrap my head
around how to accomplish it.

I have delivery zones built in Google Earth and I have delivery addresses.
I need to run through the list of delivery addresses to determine which
delivery zone they fall in.  Sounds simple (or maybe not) but I can't
figure out how to work out the coordinates of the address and filter it
within the perimeter coordinates of the zone.  Hopefully I explained this
clearly.

I realize I will probably have to first run the delivery addresses against
some database that will give me GPS coordinates which I can then use
against my delivery zone kml data.

Has anybody done this before?  Any suggestions?

As always, your input is GREATLY appreciated :)

Best regards,

SKIP KIMPEL

I have built one and submitted apps with no problems.  A pain to install

Another option is MacInCloud (https://www.macincloud.com) I have used them
before as well and then map a DropBox folder to my PC so I can transfer

Producing a list of duplicates

Anybody have a good method for searching a list of items for duplicates and
listing those duplicates in a variable?

I have a bunch of data records that contain email addresses. I need to
search through that list and produce an list so those duplicates can be
acted upon.

As always, your input is greatly appreciated!

Re: Drag List Items Up and Down

Very nice little script!

Question:  You can actually drag an item "up" and out of the field and it
disappears forever.  Any way to avoid this?

I am going to have to bring those out of the archives just for old times
sake especially the "Is Director Dead" episodes.

Appreciate the comment, Tom.

Sad to see it officially going away but the writing on the wall has been
there for YEARS.  I think most of us switched to other tools to do what we
once did in Director.  That is why we are now all friends of LiveCode :)
