It was a single problem, but the poor fellow was in hock up to the ears and out 
of time. 

If there is anything positive here it is the response of the community. No 
lectures on what he should have done different, just genuine concern and an 
astonishingly quick fix. 

Best wishes

That's superhuman Monte.

The last time I remember a company making a fix this quick was when I
posted a bug to the Foxpro people (before they were bought out by
Microsoft).

It logged on with  a 2400 Baud Modem to there "BBS" to get a patched
runtime file back  just over 2 hours - probably took longer to download
than fix.
I still think for a  client to pull away like that with  a single problem
that was not insurmountable didn't augur well for future relationships.

I just hope Sean is reading this list.

Hi Sean

I realise it may be too late to recover with your client now but I have 
mergGoogle working with google’s OAuth library GTMAppAuth.

The new lcext file is here: 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/2vuu3jed0dp3wai/mergGoogle.lcext?dl=0
Updated docs are here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xy62zhetu7yt20r/api.lcdoc?dl=0 


The main difference is you need to add your client id reversed as a custom url 
scheme to your app and if you get the `urlWakeUp` message with a url for that 
scheme then you call `mergGoogleAuthResume` with the url. On iOS 11+ you don’t 
need to do that as it uses SFAuthenticationSession which has a built in 
callback. Happy to chat you through it if that helps.

Hoping you are OK

2018-05-02 Thread Monte Goulding via use-livecode
The issue is google no longer allow you to use webviews in app to do OAuth. So 
basically this rules out anything that doesn’t open up an OS browser. The 
fastest way to resolve this for mergGoogle is to change to using GTMAppAuth 
from GTMOAuth2. It may be that the OAuth2 library can do what’s needed in pure 
LCS (with a few feature additions) by following the implementation details here 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8252 ,  
however, as I’d still need to modify mergGoogle to pass it the auth token I 
think the first step is updating that separately. Hopefully, getting Sean out 
of some of his hot water in the process although from the sounds of things it 
may be too late for that.

Hi,

working with the google API on LC 8 and 9. I was using it with the google
calendar API in an experimental lib last year and the code still working.

I will need to change the api of mergGoogle as you will need to hand it the url

Hi Sean

I’m sorry to hear about your situation. It seems from the blog link you posted 
there was a notice on the iOS consent page. We weren’t notified in any other 
way and do not have a bug report open about this. It seems neither us, nor any 
of our users noticed the notice… anyway, we are here now and ready to help.

From the sounds of things our OAuth2 script library won’t work for Google 
either so that isn’t an option. I’m looking for alternatives right now.

If there is any chance of recovery with your clients please let me know if 
there is a new deadline to work to and I will do my best to get it done.

I have set it up - but I want to have the money go directly to Sean

Ive just read that if I put seans email address in it will send him an

I am waiting his acceptance but I think we can add to it without him
accepting -I HAVE NO WAY OF WITHDRAWING MONEY FROM THIS ACCOUNT.

Lagi , I'm in. Let me know how to help.

Sean,
I don't "Share" EVER. I don't even have(and never will if I can avoid it) a FB 
account But here it is for what it's worth:

I was working for a major bank in the 80s. I was in Tokyo and I started a 
backup and used the current tape instead of the previous tape(that had not had 
a backup written to it yet). The backup was just starting when the hard drive 
failed. I'll never forget the image engrained in my mind of going back to the 
hotel and the programmer who had been working on this for a couple of months 
holding his plate with a steak on it at the door while I told him all the code 
was lost. I was using one tape and decided to do an a/b set so this would not 
happen but screwed up. I was thinking of going to the roof of the Akasaka 
Prince hotel and Well I relaxed and addressed it. Everyone understood(as 
much as could be expected) and we all pulled together and I was able to dump 
some of the raw data off the drive and get back some of the code. The 
programmer re-wrote the rest of it eliminating the spaghetti code. And the 
higher ups worked with us to deflect much of the fire. Our app was on those big 
screens on Tokyo Stock Exchange floor so you can imagine the pressure of the 
world's financial markets on your shoulders. Cooler heads prevailed and I came 
out the other side with a few bruises but better off in the long run. A better 
product and a lesson well learned.

we have to put Sean's name on it - what shall I call the page?

Talk like that makes me shiver. I have a mate in Canada - he had his   card
account and paypal compromised a week or  so ago - rent was due no money so I 
Paypald him a large chunk of what I had put aside for my income tax
- I have a few months to sort that situation out - but he hadn't - and his 
situation wasn't as bad as Sean's. We need to do this for Sean and his family - 
I'm sure the work he has put in will come out for the best in the end - 
Otherwise Sean just post your paypal address here - every little helps.

Yeah; had a heart attack and a bloody great (quite literally) thrombosis 
3 years ago: fitted with 5 stents.


So: what to do? Well, I certainly wasn't going to lie there in the bed 
moaning my fate like all the losers in the hospital ward:


practised my Bulgarian flirting with the nurses, did some LiveCode 
programming on a laptop, got a bloke to come round
and measure me up for a coffin (just in case) . . . shared some fairly 
black jokes with him: a first for an undertaker in

the world of gloomy Slavs!

But, surprise, surprise, the Devil obviously loves me, as here I am, as 
big a pain in the bum as ever.


Bounce back, Sean, bounce back.

YOUR FAULT and you would gladly fix it.
If these 'clients' don't understand this - then they don't deserve your
work in the first place...

personally I've had a few of these disasters myself in 50 years of tech.

Hi Sean,

I¹m very sorry to hear your demo went wrong today.

If its any consolation I¹ve been there and probably most of us have been
in that situation at some point in our careers. Even Steve Jobs had the
occasional demo that didn¹t work out! How you recover from that situation
is probably more important than the fact that it happened. Most customers
and clients understand that tech demos are fraught with potential issues
and will accept that if you can keep a level head and talk to them. One

of

the techniques I have for doing demos - in common with many in this
industry - is to practice the whole thing 3 times the day before from
beginning to end. As this change occurred 20th April that would have

given

us a few hours to respond Š rather than it being ³too late² now.

Could we have done a better job here? Possibly. We have hundreds and
hundreds of components in LiveCode and we generally try to maintain
compatibility within a couple of weeks of major upgrades and changes. For
whatever reason this change wasn¹t flagged by the processes we use to

stay

on top here - and as a result we can review that process going forward.

At

present Monte is asleep - yes even he needs sleep sometimes - and as he
wrote this component we really need him to chime in here and take a look
at what needs to be updated.

Generally its faster post to support than this list, though we do require
a support contract in place to help you. Nonetheless given how important
this is for you we will look at this issue when Monte gets up.

Kind regards,

Kevin

Lagi,
This is an excellent idea and a tangible expression of our caring for Sean and 
a way to help. After all, we are a community that can reach out in various ways 
to help each other, and what better way to step up?

Can you post a link to the account?
Maybe good if his name is on it, so it will be searchable by text we can guess.

Dear Sean, I hope that the dark clouds pass and you can gain clarity on
what you can do to fix the situation.  Software is hard to get right
especially when there are different development teams involved.  Maybe its
Apple, maybe its Livecode.. maybe its both that could have done something
better, sooner.

However, it is best that you empower yourself to ask what you can do to fix
the situation ...and maybe something will come to mind.

Take a nap, meditate, and clear your mind so that a solution can come to
you.

All the best Sean

Hi All

If I wasn't clear as to why I asked the question about gofundme - it's
because people don't want their lives "on social media" and gofundme is
probably as social as it get - lets keep it private between us.

Hi All

I just setup a gofundme site - Never done it before but Can anyone tell me
do we have to put Sean's name on it - what shall I call the page?

Talk like that makes me shiver. I have a mate in Canada - he had his   card
account and paypal compromised a week or  so ago - rent was due no money so
I Paypald him a large chunk of what I had put aside for my income tax
- I have a few months to sort that situation out - but he hadn't - and his
situation wasn't as bad as Sean's. We need to do this for Sean and his
family - I'm sure the work he has put in will come out for the best in the
end - Otherwise Sean just post your paypal address here - every little
helps.

Sean,
I’ve seen you on this list, and the Director list for years. You have been 
someone whose kind responses and help have been very appreciated. Please know 
that there are many people who care about you and wish you the best. Please 
take a deep breath and don’t do anything that you haven’t had time to consider 
carefully. Perspectives often change with time.

Best wishes and I’m so sorry for your situation, which sucks big time.

FYI, I had a biopsy in November, which resulted in a 3 mo hospital stay where I 
nearly left this life. Shit happens to us and we hope to come out of it a 
little bit wiser. For me, I gained a lot of awareness of Friends who cared for 
me. I’m still in physical therapy and getting back to bike riding, outrigger 
canoe paddling, and my previous life. Consequences of some of these random 
events eventually disappear and we hope something is learned.


Best wishes and peace, brother,

Whatever, Sean. Please don't even consider suicide.
You can recover from this.

There will be more ( and more forgiving ) clients ahead for you.

Hopefully you own your code and can fix and repurpose it for something else.
You have the possibility, with Monte's help in the morning, to get this
thing working.
Your clients or client's clients should understand this happening was NOT
YOUR FAULT and you would gladly fix it.
If these 'clients' don't understand this - then they don't deserve your
work in the first place...

personally I've had a few of these disasters myself in 50 years of tech.

Hello Sean,

I don't know you personally but I hope you take on board my sincere personal
message to you.

It sounds like you are in a very bad place at the moment. Please do not do
anything rash, try to get some sleep and let your emotions settle. Then talk
to your wife or if that's to difficult at the moment someone you trust, it
won't be an easy conversation but you need to discuss the way you feel and
try and find a path forward.

Hi Sean,

I¹m very sorry to hear your demo went wrong today.

If its any consolation I¹ve been there and probably most of us have been
in that situation at some point in our careers. Even Steve Jobs had the
occasional demo that didn¹t work out! How you recover from that situation
is probably more important than the fact that it happened. Most customers
and clients understand that tech demos are fraught with potential issues
and will accept that if you can keep a level head and talk to them. One of
the techniques I have for doing demos - in common with many in this
industry - is to practice the whole thing 3 times the day before from
beginning to end. As this change occurred 20th April that would have given
us a few hours to respond Š rather than it being ³too late² now.

Could we have done a better job here? Possibly. We have hundreds and
hundreds of components in LiveCode and we generally try to maintain
compatibility within a couple of weeks of major upgrades and changes. For
whatever reason this change wasn¹t flagged by the processes we use to stay
on top here - and as a result we can review that process going forward. At
present Monte is asleep - yes even he needs sleep sometimes - and as he
wrote this component we really need him to chime in here and take a look
at what needs to be updated.

Generally its faster post to support than this list, though we do require
a support contract in place to help you. Nonetheless given how important
this is for you we will look at this issue when Monte gets up.

Kind regards,

Sean,

Do you have a support package? They don't monitor this list close, it might
be better to call them over the phone while sending a direct email to
Heather. At least this is somewhat fixable on their side. I remember when I
lost a ton of money when Apple decided that only Obj-C/Cocoa apps would be
allowed on the store at the same time I was supposed to deliver a project.

This kind of setback happens to everyone in the long run when we're using
APIs outside our control. My advise would be to ping RunRev directly while
calling the client, explaining that google deprecated a technology used in
the project and thus it requires an extension.

It's all too late now. I'm walking with egg on my face. No response from LC
still. despite being marked as urgent. To use the browser widget I would
have had to write the whole wrapper from scratch rather than use merg
dependance. If it had been written properly in the first place it would not
have been an issue. Had it had a warning on it (and not suppressed) I would
have been aware. Now my life is over. Worst Day Ever! Miserable. Rained on
and soaked through. Insurance doesn't cover for events like this and not
one person at LC or on here will be able to help me out of this hole. I
guess this is goodbye.

I wonder if using the browser widget would be a temporary workaround so

If he had then it would also be in 8.1.10 or 8.2 (but it is not). v9 is
basically still a beta (a GM beta!) as is incredibly buggy and virtually
unusable for client projects. I wouldn't dare touch it yet till it is

Hi Sean,

I feel your pain really!

Just a question wouldn't the Oauth2 that is built in to LC9 work - maybe
that's the reason it wasn't updated but i'm sure Monty wouldn't be
dismissive - he was once at the coal face (no pun intended).

They would not be able to sort it in the next 1hr by which time our slot is 
over. They’ve had two years to sort this. Fortunately, in London there are 
plenty of trains and cars to run in front of as I can’t face another day of 
this. I’ve lost a huge client, a tonne of work and any chance of being paid. 
And LC won’t care a jot! Last time I had something similar I was told I’d have 
to pay their extortionate support fee (for their bug!!). So screw it and screw 
everyone. There’s no way of pulling this back.

Perhaps rather than you and I chasing each other on multiple lists we could
keep the conversation to one list.  Have you tried contacting LC?  I'm
pretty sure when Monte was writing mergGoogle for me, he was up a few

Re: URGENT: MergGoogle no longer works on iOS: CLIENTS VERY UNHAPPY

It works fine on OSX but not on ios. Google have been documenting, apparently, 
for the last two years that they would be dropping support from using 
non-browser oAuth on iOS and Android devices. 1st May 2018 was apparently their 
cut off day. We now get this on iPads:

Sucks to be me. The tv game show pilot took months to set up and cost me 
personally £1000’s and it has all fallen to pieces around me. I’ve got very 
angry people staring at me. I certainly have no money left to get LC support 
and Monte, the only one who could do anything about it, will be in bed by now. 
I am so totally screwed because I put my trust in LC. And not for the first 
time!

See the thread on the other list.  It appears to be working for me just
fine.
