I seem to be getting unreliable results from ‘close stack’. I note that the
dictionary says:

I thought this was an ongoing thread that had been answered, but at the risk of
repeating all of you, The trick would be to send "close this stack" in 0
seconds. I've not tried it, so I am not sure if it actually works, but that is
the prescribed method.

Folks,
I'm wondering if anybody has stored data on Apple's iCloud or iCloud Drive. I
have an app where I want the use entered data to be persistent between
upgrades, and accessible between multiple devices, but don't want to support a
database on my server.
I am about to look deeper into this,
Yes, I’m already trying that. Maybe I did it in an incorrect way. I am trying
to go over it very carefully for the nth time. I have certainly seen some
oddness in 8.1.1 related to this among other things, but I haven’t got a recipe
yet.
Thanks for the reminder.

On a Mac it's fairly easy if you are alreacy connecting to iCloud Drive. Just
write a file to:
/Users//Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/
Not sure how to connect to an Icloud drive on Windows, but the process would be
similar.

In LC 8.1.1, I have just become aware of Bug 18295 -
specialFolderPath(“resources”) on Windows standalone doesn’t generate a path at
all.
This is a show-stopper for me. Can anyone suggest a workaround which would work
for any normal user environment?
TIA

Isn't the resources path for Windows the path to the mainstack?

From the dictionary for SpecialFolderPath:
* "resources": In development mode, the current stack's folder. In a
standalone, the resources folder where files or folders specified in the
Standalone Builder are located.
Since you set this in the standalone builder, create a constant with that
I don't understand that Dictionary entry at all. There are no facilities for
specifying a resource folder in the Standalone settings. I still don't see
where the builder puts my (non-mainstack) resources, nor how my script can
refer to it.
Can't help feeling I'm being stupid...

I think they mean the Copy Files tab.

Hi Graham,
I ran into this same problem just yesterday. I too found that the
'resources' path was empty in the standalone even though it contained
the path to the app stack when viewed in the IDE. So I'm using the
filename of the stack as my source for a self-made 'resources' folder in

Make sure if you are doing a send to delete the stack that you don't have

otherwise telling the stack to send the delete request to itself would be a
circular type of thing. Can't delete the stack running the script, so se
Thanks for the reply - but the Copy Files tab shows the **source** of the

Thanks, I will try to see if I am inadvertently doing what you say. The actual
deletion code is in a library which is being used by the stack to be deleted
(since it’s invoked by a menu item in the stack), although the library itself
is in another mainstack. Interesting - I suppose while in use,
Yep, as a library stack, IIRC the script being run is owned by the object
calling it. If however you send the request directly to the library stack
(I think you can still do that) it may solve your issue.

My bad. It works if I use:
"/Users/prothero/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs” for the path.
It’s weird, because if you go to the folder, you don’t see the path using the
finder. But, you can get the path if you duplicate the Mobil Documents folder,
and all of the inside folders
On OSX, any folders/file you have in the "Copy Files" tab of the

I don't have enough to nail this down, and if I file a bug, it will just be

I have something to the effect of

I eventually noted that "c" wasn't actually an index variable, but rather
cNo or some such.
