hi, Do you need to add a callback to your "open socket" command? I see in the dictionary " If the callback parameter is specified then the call will return immediately and upon completion of the lookup, the callback will be invoked with the resolved address as a parameter " You might be able to also...

hi ya,

Just a stab in the dark at this, but does exiting the mouseup from a loop contribute to this behaviour? if you do "exit repeat" instead, and then let the mouseup exit by itself, does it still happen?

Hi,

Check out "long" in the dictionary, as it can be used with file commands. e.g.
A checksum or other hash might be more reliable than just timestamp.

hi, might be a bug? i think both are incorrect, shouldn't it be z%E9ro.png. Using other langs or online urlencoders, i get z%C3%A9ro.png.

Hi, some things i can think of to double check - mod_headers really is enabled? (if you are relying on apache to serve it) - header in script is not replaced by other code? (ie inadvertanlty choosing a different path in code so it's never set/overwritten by something else) - header returned is actua...

Hi Will, That sha1digest code you found looks like it might work to me, but you should be able to use the uuid("sha1",uuid(),"api_secret") format as well, just depends on what you're supposed to use from cloudinary (maybe grep their doco for namespace_ i'm guessing it wll be url). I found this on SO...

Hi, Do you have a way to put a file on the server? If so, the fastest way might be to just use mysql's import functions https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/load-data.html As for the int and date.. you sure the values are passed correctly, perhaps you are making the int a string inadvertantly? Th...

Just my interpretation, but @mwieder might be referring to conventions such as Apple's where it is <ImageName><@scaling>.<ext> eg Icon-60@3x.png https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/qa/qa1686/_index.html Or Microsoft's <name>.<scale-100>.<ext> https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps...

Hi, this is what i use and it works for me. You might have been missing the auth type of basic or missing a colon space, minor things like that can trip up things. put "https://" & myServer & "/api/xxxxxx/?q=" & urlencode(searchTerm) into myURL put base64encode("user:password") into userpass put "Au...

That was a good little game to play. Impressive it all transpiled, including graphics.

Hi ya,

If you are using the "load" command, there is a counterpart called "unload" that should clear the cache. Additionally, you can see what URLs have been cached by using "the cachedURLs" to verify.

Hope that helps.

Just to answer my own questions in case it benefits others: - lcdoc does seem to be the format going forward in v8 (I am unsure if changes get back ported to 6x though, i think they do for 7.1) - The LCv8 dictionary (open it in livecode) has a guide tab, which has a specifications section explaining...

Hi, I've written a little script to create a Dash app "docset" as I noticed there wasn't already one ..anyway ... I didn't know what Livecode documentation to base it on—I can see 3 different types of livecode documentation: XML, lcdoc, and in LC8 I see json (locally installed, not on github). I use...

Hi Jack, Do you mean code documentation tools like doxygen/naturaldocs and the like that can generate "documentation" or more an editor that can be used for documenting systems like MS Word? Code gen tools — I'm not sure if they can handle livecode without some wrangling. Writing tools — There's a p...

Thanks Craig, I played around with this for about half an hour. The negative "offsets" work a treat for fixing the backcolor, but then of course, I lose the indenting of my text. What I don't understand is why firstIndent works the way i want (except for wrapped lines), but normal indent does not. W...
