error building iOS standalone with LiveCode 8.1

Tue Sep 20 04:55:21 EDT 2016

Hi Chris,

I just tested with your stack in LC 8.1.1 RC-1 (not public) and I confirm I
still get the "resource fork, Finder information, or similar detritus not
allowed” error when building an iOS standalone. After further
investigation, it seems this is caused *only* if you add the "Internet" or
"tsNet" inclusion in the "Inclusions" pane. I will change the status of
http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18135 back to IN_PROGRESS.

Best,
Panos
