LC8... building problem

Post by Dixie » Thu Nov 05, 2015 12:09 am

Just tried to run a stack under LC 8. Everything is fine under LC7.1, there are a couple of folders and a couple of files in the 'copy files' pane... Everything loads as it should.. No problem.... but, under LC 8 I get an error message...

Cannot copy
/Users/johndixon/Desktop/rugby/otherlogos/cal.png

Clicking the 'OK' button just brings up a second answer dialog...

Unable to build for simulation.Cannot copy
/Users/johndixon/Desktop/rugby/otherlogos/cal.png

I have checked the folders and the files, they are fine... I have gone back to using 7.1 and everything loads in the simulator...but go back to LC 8 and the 'dialogs' return ...:-( any ideas ?

hmm - I'm using LC8 in an app that on first run on Android/iOS copies over files (including .png's) and folders from the engine to document folders - works fine on dp7 but haven't tested dp8 yet - I'm using the following code (part of a larger handler):

Code: Select all

put URL("binfile:" & tSourceFile) into URL("binfile:" & tTargetFile)
What version of Xcode, SDK and simulated device do you get failure? and does it work for you on a real device?
"...this is not the code you are looking for..."
