Hi, Is LiveCode 5.0.2 able to read binary data from an external? I thought this was impossible, but my colleague, who is working on an external, tells me there is no reason why it would not work.
I believe I need to use a command with a variale included as parameter to make an external return binary data: put empty inyo myVar someExternalCommand "myVar" set the unicodeText of fld x to myVar (assuming that we do something with UTF16). If LiveCode could read binary data from an external, then we could do: set the unicodeText of fld x to someExternalFunction() which would be much nicer. Has anyone got experience with externals that return binary data? -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Download the Installer Maker Plugin 1.7 for LiveCode here http://qery.us/za _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
