LC 8.1.1. rc1 thinks I'm rich!

Thanks Monte for your instant reply! The way I normally do development is to load my splash stack into the IDE, and when I’m ready to test, send a ‘startup’ message via the message box. I don’t expect the IDE to fire startup on my behalf. This means that I can start a test within the IDE whenever I want, but in my standalone the ‘startup’ will always be there to get my app going.

I don’t think I had this problem in any earlier version of LC. Maybe I should suppress messages before loading my stack into the IDE, but again I don’t remember having to do that before.

As you suggest it, I will report this.

Cheers

Graham

So there’s an easy workaround for you: don’t pass startup or make sure you handle it. But it would be good if you also reported this because unarguably the home stack startup script should be protected by a sentinel from running multiple times.
