Re: Open Inv Stack on iPhone

2017-05-27 Thread Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami via use-livecode
we have been playing with this open, close, show, destroy, stacks on mobile for 
several months

FWIW, if you use dispatch to a stack, even if it has  GUI on card 1… it just 
opens in memory but not visible.

if you run "go" later the stack will top level (as you would expect)

#stack MyLibraryWGUI  stack script

on wakeMe
  # do nothing
end wakeMe
 

dispatch "wakeMe" to stack " MyLibraryWGUI "  # assumes the stack is in the 
stack files

# OK if you do this you will not see it open in the IDE (or on a phone) but you 
can see it open in the project browser. 
# Caveat: PB runtime updating is still flaky (9.dp5), you have to close the PB 
and reopen it. you will see the stack is loaded by not visible.  

 It's now in the msg path. Later if you if want toplevel it:

go to stack "MyLibraryWGUI"

Working here on desktop and mobile.  Send would probably also load the stack 
(not tested)

Mark,

Good suggestion!  But, I will need to display the stack at some point.  
There must be a reason why this is failing.  Perhaps someone at LC will see 
this post and shed some light.

Assuming that you don't need to display the stack, you could use

start using stack “/folder/folder/stackName.rev"

and reference any objects and scripts in the stack.

Kind regards,

Does anyone have any insight about this….  If you open a stack file on an 
iPhone invisibly, the app crashes.  For example:

  open inv stack “/folder/folder/stackName.rev"

This works fine on windows, mac, and an iPad.  But, on a iPhone (real device or 
simulator) it crashes.  Any thoughts?  Or perhaps a workaround?

The file and the path are good. I know this because if I open the stack without 
“inv”, it opens just fine.

LC 8.1.3
iOS 10.3.1

FYI, the goal is to get the stack file open and in memory so I can call it 
later.  But, I don’t want to see it open.

Thanks in advance!
