Livecode and Xcode Versions

Post by nobaday » Sat Dec 12, 2015 12:01 am

Hi,

I had Livecode 7.1.1 (rc4) and Xcode 6.4 on my machine and the simulator was working fine.

Then I installed Livecode 8.0 (dp10) and Xcode 7.2 (I left both Xode's in my app folder, just named them differently)

and now the test and test target menu's are grey so I can't run the iOS simulator.

Any ideas how to troubleshoot this?

thanks!

nobaday,
I was doing the same thing. Renaming the Xcode files. Then I ran into a problem that I thought was a bug. Turns out it wasn't and I got help from LC quality control. Take a look at the bug report. Also, if you're going to have multiple versions of Xcode, you will want to put them into folders named for the Xcode version rather then rename the files. You still need to keep them in the applications folder.

HI,

Thanks!

I code get Xode 6.4 working with both my version of Livecode.

I couldn't get Xode 7.2 working, but that's not an issue for now.

best regards.

LC is usually a little behind on the Xcode versions. I don't think Xcode 7.2 is recognized by LC yet.
