So, in the most recent version of my Devawriter Pro I have a script in the preOpenStack section of the stackScript: on preOpenStack send "mouseUp" to btn "CHECKIT" end preOpenStack btn "CHECKIT" checks the end-user's computer's MAC address against a list of MAC addresses in a scrolling list

Thanks Jerry et al! I did the upgrade with no problems. I would caution anyone doing this (or any major upgrade/install) is to be patient. The install progress bar froze for an hour or more. It appeared to be cut into stone with no estimated time to completion. This was after the install progre

Understanding LiveCode Source [BOM Issue with livecodescript URLs]

Is there anything posted that gives an overview of how the source code to LiveCode works/is organized? I know that the source is all there and I can read it, but that would take a long time :) I'm still learning C++ (been many years, but I learned C while in college), but following the code doesn

Err - given that revDB is an *SQL* database wrapper and MongoDB is not an SQL database you can imagine that creating an abstraction layer to deal with both might be 'quite' hard - if not impossible. So, given that we've now been open source for over four years and as such that code has been ope

The best way is to ask 'us' (as in the engineers that have worked on the entirety of the LiveCode source base for many years). This isn't any different from any other open source project which has 1.5m lines of code (I don't think at least...). We can certainly provide an insight at where to st

Hi Tom, Nothing in my previous post was to do with your request - we will get back to you as quickly as we can with a quote for what you asked. Whether that is a driver for revDB or a direct wrapper for the low-level C API raised to a suitable level of abstraction will depend on the analysis we
