Has anyone tired CIDER debugger with Lime ??

Lime
#1

I tired to get my project to work with CIDER but couldn’t as I would get an error in a lime class when used in conjunction with CIDER. I have checked with some of the lime examples and get the same error, but ONLY when run with CIDER. Error looks like this :

Runtime error
…me samples\basicparallax\lime-external-numberlua.lua:31: attempt to perform arithmetic on local ‘a’ (a string value)
stack traceback:
[C]: ?
…me samples\basicparallax\lime-external-numberlua.lua:31: in function <…me samples …me error:="">ua:31: attempt to perform arithmetic on local ‘a’ (a string value)
stack traceback:
[C]: ?
…me samples\basicparallax\lime-external-numberlua.lua:31: in function <…me samples>Copyright © 2009-2011 A n s c a , I n c .
0.0
Has anyone had a similar experience / know of a fix ?? I would love to start using CIDER but cant at the moment due to this bug.

Cheers,
E.

Thanks so much for looking at this, I have sent you through an example lime project, its just a tutorial one but illustrates the issue.

Cheeers !!!

I have also sent a copy of Lime to M.Y. Developers, hopefully this can get sorted nice and quickly. [import]uid: 119420 topic_id: 24019 reply_id: 96964[/import]

Thankfully we are getting some weirdness. We are tracking down the issue and hopefully come up with a solution soon. This will likely fix other issues as well.

Please see if the issue is resolved. Update pushed. The problem arose with so many globals getting transferred. Changed the mechanism to accommodate.

@elliotagro83,
Sounds great! We never ended up getting the runtime error, did that resolve as well?

@Glitch Games,
Thanks for your help. Nice working with you.

Glad it seems to be resolved! Is there anything I need to change my end? [import]uid: 119420 topic_id: 24019 reply_id: 97394[/import]

@Glitch Games,

The problem was on our end. Thanks for your help, Lime was a great real world usage scenario for our IDE.

@M.Y.developers

All is working beautifully now, I am now building a game with Corona, Ice, Lime and a bit of CIDER. :slight_smile: [import]uid: 81475 topic_id: 24019 reply_id: 97511[/import]

Hello! I seem to be getting a weird error loading Lime in Cider debug mode.

When I try to debug through lime on PC, the app seems to get stuck.

When I’ve stepped through everything, it seems to get stuck in lime-external-numberlua.lua
I try to continue with “Step Into(F7)” but it stays on that line. If I click Continue (F5), it would never hit the next line even when i hit a breakpoint there, and just ends.

I’m currently using Cider v1.5.3 and Lime v3.4

Hope this helps! [import]uid: 87963 topic_id: 24019 reply_id: 116162[/import]

Hello esuei82,

Is there a particular line that it gets stuck at? Please copy and paste the line and a few above and below so we can see what the problem might be.

#15

Hello M.Y. Developers,

It gets stuck on line #20 in this function:
[blockcode]
local function memoize(f)
local mt = {}
local t = setmetatable({}, mt)
function mt:__index(k) local v = f(k); t[k] = v
return v
end
return t
end
[/blockcode]
It doesn’t matter how many times I press “Step Into”, it remains on the same line. Then the moment I hit anything else (like Step Over), the green arrow disappears and the program doesn’t resume, and I can’t hit any breakpoint I set after this line.

I’ve tried upgrading to Lime 3.5, but I’m still running into this same issue.

Please let me know if there’s any other information I can provide you with!

UPDATE:
I’ve realized I was still running on an older version of corona, and I just updated it to version 2012.840 (2012.6.5).

Now I can actually see the errors in the debugger window! And this will look very familiar:

[text]

…\trunk\source\director.lua:934: ERROR: table expected. If this is a function call, you might have used ‘.’ instead of ‘:’

Director ERROR: Failed to load module ‘menu’ - Please check if the file exists and it is correct.

…\trunk\source\lime-external-numberlua.lua:31: attempt to perform arithmetic on local ‘a’ (a string value)

[/text]
It looks like I am currently running Cider v1.5.3, is this the right version?

Also on an interest note, my app runs fine with no error if I just hit “Run Main Project” instead of “Debug Main Project”.

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can provide to help solve this issue!!! [import]uid: 87963 topic_id: 24019 reply_id: 116381[/import]
