Build 639 failure to report any errors. Help!

Hey all.

This:

print("Hooray!")

prints:

Hooray!

This:

print("Hooray!")  
sausages

does nothing! No error, no messages, no complaints, nothing! Shouldn’t it be tripping up on the “sausages” part, complaining about that not being acceptable?

I get:

Just sitting there happily.

Also, I noticed in a separate test while using some “joystick.lua” module examples that it states:

ead

The above is completely fair enough of a statement, except it doesn’t tell me WHAT FILE that the complaint sprang from. I just happened to know offhand that that particular error was from the joystick.lua file.

Methinks build 639 might have some issues??? Or is it just me? I get the same issues when using the corona simulator OR CPM.

Eagerly awaiting answers,
Mario

What the heck?!

Love,
Mario

I love this part: print("Hooray!") sausages
It made me laugh so hard.

Also funny that: print("Hooray!") local sausages would work just fine…

Anyway, build 369 seems to be working on my mac, and the log looks like it has a lot of mac specific things:

...  
Mac: Waypoint: Optimizations to short-circuit redundant setBounds calls to CAOpenGLLayer.  
Mac: Waypoint: Partial regression on optimizations for render storage resize because it was causing errors on Snow Leopard.  
Mac: Waypoint: Forgot to add files for new window controller class.  
...

so maybe we just have to wait for windows to catch up?

It’s the same on the Mac, no errors, kind of hard to debug where the error is, so I do what I had suggested to @mRoberti, comment out the code and then single out the error through a lot of trial and error, or just revert back to an earlier build and debug the program.

cheers,

#4

I am having similar problems, and I cant even make a build with 639…and thats for a sausage!

#5

@jayantv There’s nothing to comment out!!! THATS ALL MY CODE! Those 2 lines! :slight_smile:

But yeah, I’ll revert. But the Corona folks won’t know if something’s broken unless I tell 'em, so that’s why I posted.

[edit] Yeah after I reverted, I actually get the expected error about my sausage part:

So what the dealie-o?

@yobonja Hahahahaha! Yeah I like to throw fun words in for testing purposes! [import]uid: 11636 topic_id: 16409 reply_id: 61340[/import]

Still fails in build 640, on two separate machines running windows 7 64 bit.

#7

Do builds before 639 exhibit this broken behavior? Can you identify which build this problem first appeared in? [import]uid: 7563 topic_id: 16409 reply_id: 62461[/import]

#8

Build 625 was where the issue started. (Which I know we now know but I’m posting for future reference, just in case.)

Thanks all. Fixed with one of the latest updates!
