launch url works in LC but not in stand alone app

Post by poco » Thu Mar 04, 2021 7:26 am

I have a LC project in which I display some images using the "launch" instruction. It works fine in the LC IDE but not in my standalone application on the same machine. I would explain more but after numerous attempts to correct this error on "preview" of this message:

"You can’t post image, email or url links that are external to this domain. Please remove 10."

I gave up.

Since I did not include any images, email links or URL links, I am as mystified by the error as I am by the problem I am posting about! :?

At any rate, if anyone has any ideas I am all ears.

Maybe there is :)

In the standalone settings you need to ensure that the permissions and inclusions for Internet are set.

When running the standalone if it has been moved, also ensure that the external folder containing the liburl or tsnet is moved with it to be in the same path relative to the application executable.

Hi,

what SparkOut says - looks like you don't have "Internet" checked in the "Inclusions" pane.

And you can't post any links until you have made 10 successful posts - this is a way to combat the ad spam bot armies. Nothing personal - you're close already!

Have fun!
All code published by me here was created with Community Editions of LC (thus is GPLv3).
If you use it in closed source projects, or for the Apple AppStore, or with XCode
you'll violate some license terms - read your relevant EULAs & Licenses!

Poco.

I have no issue if you post a handful or so just to get past the spam limit. Just indicate that these are "tests. Do not reply" or somesuch.

Hi folks,

you actually only need 7 (SEVEN) postings before you can post links etc.


Best

I don't understand why the forum link limitation is an issue here. What we need to help the OP is code, which can be pasted in nicely with the code tag.
