Xcode version requirement for submission.

[Jellobus]

Hi,

I am about to submit my app to App Store. My app is pretty working well with iOS 9 environment but it's built with out-dated Xcode. (Xcode 6.3 and LC 7.0.5.)
I can't use latest LC version because I found some bugs with LC 7.1.
So my question is will apple accept the app built with Xcode 6.3 & LC 7.0.5 ?

Thanks for your time!

Hi Louis,
First, what bugs are you finding? Have you looked at LC 7.1.1 rc3?
FYI rc4 is broken unless you run the fix.
If you don't need unicode then I would suggest LC 6.7.8 rc3 and Xcode 7.1.1

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your suggestion. I might use LC 6.7.8 for now then switch my app to LC 7 or 8 version whenever I need. I assume that the app built with LC 6.7.8 can be updated to the app built with LC 7 or 8. Please correct me if I am assuming it wrong.

The bug can be found with Table field in LC 7.0.6~ LC 7.1.1 (RC4) as well as LC 8. I've reported the bug to quality team. (Bug #16555). Please see the attached stack which demonstrates the bug.

Cheers,

Louis

Yes. If you want to build your app with 6.7.8 you can do a save as to 5.5. And yes you can build with LC 6 and later open and save in LC 7.

Change your button scripts to this.
I changed the name of the field from "text" to "sometext" because...

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   put the num of lines of fld "sometext" + 1 into theLine
   set itemdel to tab
   put field "randomtext1" into item 3 of line theLine of field "sometext"
   put field "randomtext2" into item 4 of line theLine of field "sometext"
   put field "randomtext3" into item 5 of line theLine of field "sometext"
   put field "randomtext4" into item 7 of line theLine of field "sometext"
end mouseUp

Hi Tom,

So you mean that it can be saved as LC 5.5 version?
I see only three save options like this Save as--> Format: LiveCode stack, Legacy LiveCode stack (2.7), Legacy LiveCode stack (2.4)

In what circumstance can this method used?

Cheers,

Louis

This is what I see with a stack saved in 7.1.1 rc3
If you're not seeing the same choices I'm not sure why. Did the code I suggested fix your problem? If so, you can just stay in LC 7.

I was using LC 6.7.8 (rc4). I will try with (rc3) Thanks for your advice!
