LiveCode Forums.

I've been trying to use the trial version to test out making apps for iOS using LiveRev. I downloaded XCode and iOS SDK and verified the the iPhone emulator works outside LiveRev. But I can get LiveRev to work in iOS mode. I've downloaded the sheep example but can't get it to work. I've looked at the documents for working on iOS,but they are a couple of years old andI see many comment saying that you don't setup that way anymore. But no document on how to use the trial version (I got 4.5 couple days before 4.6 was released).

I did submit a question to see if trail version should be able to work with iOS and was to that it should. But they pointed me at the docs created in 2006 that other spot in the forum say is wrong. Sorry for such a simple question, but can't find the correct way to go.
Thanks

Glad to have you in the LC community!

Assuming that your XCode installation is correct, launch LC and open the example stack.

Next, go under File > Standalone Application Settings and make sure that iOS is selected as the standalone platform. In this screen you will see several iOS options, specifically on the right side the target device for your stack. Make sure this is set to iPhone, iPhone 4 (Retina), or iPad, as necessary. As you become more familiar with LC, other options here may be necessary for you apps.

Once you have verified these standalone settings, you should be able to test the app in the iOS Simulator by choosing the "Simulate" button at the right end of the LC toolbar.

This will initiate the build for the iOS device, launch the iOS Simulator, and run your app there.

Let me know if this helps you on your way.

Good luck,

Todd

Todd,
First thanks so much I assumed it was a option somewhere I was missing. After setting the options when I tried simulator on the Sheep herder again and I get
Unable to build app for simulation: Could not find plist template for simulator 4.3 target.

So I change the simulator version (under development) to 3.2 and tried again. And I got the sheep herder running.
Thanks so much.
Matt
