  • Livecode 6.6.5 Release Notes 10/21/14
    LiveCode 6.6.5 Release Notes 10/21/14 Overview Known issues Platform support Windows Linux Mac Setup Installation Uninstallation Reporting installer issues Activation Multi-user and network install support (4.5.3) Command-line installation Command-line activation Proposed changes Engine changes iOS 8.1 Support Location Services Disabled Specific bug fixes (6.6.5) Dictionary changes Previous Release Notes 1 LiveCode 6.6.5 Release Notes 10/21/14 This document describes all the changes that have been made for LiveCode 6.6.5, including bug fixes and new syntax. The installer will currently fail if you run it from a network share on Windows. Please copy the installer to a local disk before launching on this platform. The engine supports a variety of operating systems and versions. This section describes the platforms that we ensure the engine runs on without issue (although in some cases with reduced functionality). The engine supports the following Windows OSes: Windows XP SP2 and above Windows Server 2003 Windows Vista SP1 and above (both 32-bit and 64-bit) Windows 7 (both 32-bit and 64-bit) Windows Server 2008 Windows 8.x (Desktop) Note: On 64-bit platforms the engine still runs as a 32-bit application through the WoW layer. The linux engine requires the following: 32-bit installation, or a 64-bit linux distribution that has a 32-bit compatibility layer 2.4.x or later kernel X11R5 capable Xserver running locally on a 24-bit display glibc 2.3.2 or later gtk/gdk/glib (optional – required for native theme support) pango/xft (optional – required for pdf printing, anti-aliased text and unicode font support) lcms (optional – required for color profile support in JPEGs and PNGs) gksu (optional – required for elevate process support) Note: The optional requirements (except for gksu and lcms) are also required by Firefox and Chrome, so if your linux distribution runs one of those, it will run the engine.

  • Sqlite 1 Sqlite
    SQLite 1 SQLite SQLite Developer(s) D. Richard Hipp Initial release August 2000 [1] Latest stable 3.8.4.2 (March 26, 2014) [±] Written in C Operating system Cross-platform Size 658 KiB Type RDBMS (embedded) License Public domain [2] Website sqlite.org SQLite (/ˌɛskjuːɛlˈlaɪt/ or /ˈsiːkwəl.laɪt/) is a relational database management system contained in a C programming library. In contrast to other database management systems, SQLite is not a separate process that is accessed from the client application, but an integral part of it. SQLite is ACID-compliant and implements most of the SQL standard, using a dynamically and weakly typed SQL syntax that does not guarantee the domain integrity. SQLite is a popular choice as embedded database for local/client storage in application software such as web browsers. It is arguably the most widely deployed database engine, as it is used today by several widespread browsers, operating systems, and embedded systems, among others. SQLite has many bindings to programming languages. The source code for SQLite is in the public domain. Design Unlike client–server database management systems, the SQLite engine has no standalone processes with which the application program communicates. Instead, the SQLite library is linked in and thus becomes an integral part of the application program. (In this, SQLite follows the precedent of Informix SE of c. 1984 [3]) The library can also be called dynamically. The application program uses SQLite's functionality through simple function calls, which reduce latency in database access: function calls within a single process are more efficient than inter-process communication.

  • Feature Exchangeанаbetter
    Feature Exchange ­ Better FFI Background The biggest new part of LiveCode 8 is LiveCode Builder, a new English­like programming language which is ​ ​ designed to be used to extend the feature set of LiveCode itself. LiveCode Builder has been designed in such a way to ensure that it can eventually replace C++ as the implementation language for all the LiveCode features you use and enjoy today. Compared to LiveCode Script, LiveCode Builder is a stricter language with a more expressive type system allowing it to be used to build the very­high level features you use every day. It has been designed to ensure that, in the future, LiveCode Builder code can be compiled to native code with similar performance to C++ code that does the same thing. One of the key features of LiveCode Builder is its ‘foreign function interface’, or FFI. A ‘foreign function’ is a function which has been written in C and compiled into a loadable shared library (or DLL, on Windows). LiveCode Builder lets you define ‘foreign handlers’ that let you call these functions directly from LiveCode Builder code. This feature is used extensively in the implementation of LiveCode Builder itself! Most of the features exposed through syntax in LiveCode Builder are implemented in C++ (with C function signatures) and then referenced from the LiveCode Builder standard library modules. The ability to hook into foreign code in this fashion enables LiveCode Builder to be used to implement very high­level features (which you access using LiveCode Script) which directly use operating system APIs or pre­existing third­party libraries.

    Setting up LiveCode with Android Studio Based on the document at http://lessons.livecode.com/m/2571/l/625198-livecode-and- android-studio. Expanded, updated, and clarified. LiveCode, Java, and Android Studio As of LiveCode 8.1.5 you can use Android Studio with LiveCode to set up Android deployment. You need to download and install Java SDK version 8. You need the Java Development Kit (JDK), not the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). You can download Java 8 here. (This is the deep link, and it may require an account: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase- jdk8-downloads.html.) If you already have Java 9 or 10 installed you will need to uninstall these and reinstall Java 8. ** You will need administrator access to the computer to install this.** Instructions for uninstalling later Java versions on Mac: https://www.java.com/en/download/ help/mac_uninstall_java.xml Instructions for uninstalling Java on Windows: https://www.java.com/en/download/help/ uninstall_java.xml If it is not already installed, you will need to download the Android Studio SDK, here. ** You will need administrator access to the computer to install this.** Android Studio will be installed to the Applications (Mac) or Program Files/Android (Windows) folder. Opening the SDK Manager Begin by starting up Android Studio (in the Applications folder). The first time you launch it you will go through a short setup wizard. Just click Next and accept all of the default settings. Click Finish when you get through the wizard. You will have to wait while Android Studio downloads a number of components.
