Bob,
It is a joke but it is also true :-)
For example, in the Network Tracer stack there is code to avoid showing
duplicate messages because here on my home network, all the datagrams
are arriving three times. So a single "ntInfo" call on a standalone
amounted to three datagrams with the same message arriving on the
dashboard. But arriving multiple times is better than not arriving,
which also happens.
I am considering in the near future going like my "decentralization talk
on LC Global" and use UDP for peer discovery and TCP for sending actual
data, it is just that UDP is sooooo convenient and for this simple
debugging purpose it is quite adequate. Anyway, we'll see how the
feedback goes and change as needed. For my own personal usage it is
going great.
Cheers

Hi Everyone,
It is with a lot of excitement that I am here to announce a new plugin for LiveCode
called Network Tracer. This is a zero-configuration plugin and library combination that
creates a "networked log" experience to help you debug your LC solutions.
To use it, you open the Dashboard stack in the IDE (you can add it to your
plugins folder if you want) and then add the library stack (and start using it)
from your stacks. Any call to the APIs provided will appear in the Dashboard
stack provided that both the Dashboard and the standalone (or another IDE on
another machine) are both in the same network (LAN, WIFI) and the your firewall
is allowing incoming connections on port 8001 (should just work).
I've prepared a nice video for you to check out:
https://vimeo.com/296722452
And also a page about it:
http://andregarzia.com/livecode/networktracer.html
The plugin costs GBP 40 and it has the potential to really speed up your
development, just watch the video to be amazed. Also, I've made a bundle of my
DB Lib, some of my other tools and the Network Tracer for GBP 100, all that
information is on the hyperlink above.
I hope you're all as excited to check it out as I am to provide this new tool
for the community.
Cheers
andre
