Re: compiler and other features for thesis
LiveCode is closed source, so there's no need to document any of it's components publically. What information are you looking for specifically?

Additionally, for speed LiveCode compiles scripts to bytecode for running in a virtual machine in much the same manner as java. The bytecode format itself is necessarily proprietary and encrypted. Does this help any?

Seeking any information available about the internal operation (only what is published) but I dont know precisely where to look.BvG wrote:LiveCode is closed source, so there's no need to document any of it's components publically. What information are you looking for specifically?

Scripts are compiled into bytecode for running in a virtual machine. After this, the bytecode is transformed into another way for each os?
In java I get the JVM to run the programs, in livecode i have no VM installed to run the program .. I am sorry but it is not easy for me ...
thank you both!
