Re: RevZilla (2.5)
If I tackle it, going through the vars is probably a good way to clean up stuff no longer needed. At first I tried to define everything but gave up and restarted with the setting turned off. I think I did at least get it to authenticate but data had changed too much for anything to really work. If the code is handy, it wouldn’t hurt, but not sure if I will have time for this project.

I did that back in the day, but RunRev's use of bugzilla changed drastically at the point where RevZilla 2.5 stopped working. There are enough things hidden now from normal view that it would be a major task to redo it. I can dig through the archives and probably send you a version that is explicitVars-safe if that helps.

Thankfully the LC team's response was more accommodating than SuperCard's where that property premiered: the LC IDE's Script Editor now only uses that temporarily to check a script, but does not attempt to run with that property active. If it's a problem with a stack just turn it off while you're working. Over time maybe more declarations can be added (though that is indeed tedious, which is why so many of us don't bother in a language that doesn't require declaration). -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: RevZilla (2.5)
I’ve looked at the code enough to know that any update by someone other than Ken would be a huge task. I was kind of hoping that someone else had already had the itch and scratched it :) It was developed without explicit variable checking so going there would be fun. But it also has a bit of code supporting legacy Mac that wouldn’t be needed.

Has anyone kept > this tool up to date? I'm guessing you're referring to this one, from Ken Ray: http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/livecode/downloads/RevZilla2.htm IIRC last time I spoke with Ken about that there were enough changes in BZ to make updating RevZilla an unattractive task. It's old enough that I don't even think it has an explicit license, so it may not be clear to others how to proceed if they want to try to undertake that themselves. I think he'd be quite supportive of having someone else update it. His email link is available on the last line of that page. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
RevZilla (2.5)
I found a stack that used to work to provide a LC interface to Bugzilla. I briefly tried to get it to work, but even after I could authenticate it just didn’t work correctly. Has anyone kept this tool up to date?

[ANN] RevZilla 2.5 Available For Download
With the change in file format for 5.5 and the fact that RevZilla hadn't been touched in over two years, I thought it would be good to bring the program up to date. Version 2.5 has an updated interface using data grids, plus a better look and feel for Linux, plus a handful of bug fixes. You can download it at: http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/livecode/downloads/RevZilla2.htm If you encounter any bugs or have any issues with the stack, please let me know… Enjoy!
