With the release of LiveCode 9.0 DP 7, the amount you can do with the android API has been significantly increased. Firstly, it is possible to use LiveCode Builder to respond to user events, which essentially allows the Android native control syntax (mobileControlCreate, mobileControlSet etc) to be replaced with draggable widget objects and standard LiveCode syntax. Secondly, it is possible to run services in the background, allowing, for example, background audio on Android.

I just finished my second year of University here in Edinburgh reading Informatics and was recently appointed to a part time software development position at LiveCode.
Everyone loves the LiveCode Conference – we know for many of you it’s the highlight of your year, and it certainly is ours!
