It makes you think in a very different way than you’re used to thinking. But since the syntactic structure of LiveCode didn’t really resemble much of anything that I had experience with, it turned out to be a lengthy learning curve because essentially, it was mostly new to me to structure commands like that. Xojo resembles VB enough (with touches of Action Script OOP as well) that it was relatively easy for me to get underway with it. My background is extensively in VB, C# and Flash Action Script. The syntax is almost “conversational” in nature since commands are structured almost like you would say them out loud if you were just talking to someone else.īut I found that very thing to be what made it very difficult for me. It’s a blessing for people who have done very little coding in their lives because the programming command structure is very “everyday English language” in nature, for example … Put “Hello Walter” into var1 … stores the string “Hello Walter” in the variable var1. That turns out to be a blessing and a curse.
The main feature touted by RunRev is that LiveCode is a much “simpler” programming language. Yes, but they are proprietary and accessible only to the specific customers I developed them forĪnd last, but not least, before you get too excited about any possibilities, let me mention one little caveat. Do you have Apps ready in store with LiveCode? Interesting for me …?
