LC 7.1.1 (rc3) & Web Browser

[joel.epsteinBUS31vi]

Hey all - I'm having an odd problem. I'd appreciate some verification.

I'm using LC 7.1.1 (rc3) Indy and xCode 7.1.1. An old stack that had web browser functionality (mobileControlCreate "browser") no longer works (nothing loads) - in simulator or device.

However, on a lark, I pointed LiveCode to an old xCode install (6.4). In this case, the browser functionality works just fine (on simulator - but, of course, I can't build for the device).

Any thoughts?

Thanks so much

Joel

Hi Joel,

In the latest versions of iOS, Apple have introduced ATS (App Transport Security ). This requires all HTTP requests to come from an HTTPS source.

There is the ability to turn this off from within the standalone application settings of RC3 (Disable ATS option) but for how long Apple will allow this..we do not know

Kind Regards,

Neil Roger

Thanks Neil -

I appreciate your speedy and helpful reply. Quick follow-up question:

Disabling ATS does indeed allow my app to display the browser again. But I still seem to be having some problems with FTP transfers. Could it be that FTP is not working even with ATS disabled? Or perhaps (likely) I'm doing something wrong...

Thanks.

Joel

Hi Joel,

If FTP was working previously and is now not, even with ATS disabled, then this could be a bug.

Please file a bug report @ http://quality.livecode.com and we will happily look into it further.

Kind Regards,

Hi Neil -

After exhaustive testing, I can assure you that the problem was mine alone (grrr - bad file name). Sorry for my confusion and thanks so much for your help.
