Reporting bugs?

General

I just encountered what I think is a Xojo bug. What is the proper way to document and report bugs?

This particular bug seems to manifest itself when deploying to the Raspberry Pi but works fine under Windows.

TextField1.AppendText("Text1")
MsgBox(TextField1.Text)

' The message box in the above code displays an empty string even though you can see "Text1" in
' the text field. This happens only on Raspberry Pi. It works as expected on Windows.
' Also, even though the text field displays "Text1", TextField1.Text.Len says its string length is zero.  
' It appears that even though you can see the string "Text1" in the text field, it cannot be retrieved.

TextField1.Text = TextField1.Text + "Text2"
MsgBox(TextField1.Text)

' The above code displays "Text2" instead of the expected "Text1Text2" concatenation.

' The AppendText method seems to be problematic on the Raspberry Pi. Concatenating via 
' the old TextField1.Text = TextField1.Text + "Text2" works just fine.

Get the Feedback app from the Downloads page: http://www.xojo.com/download/extras.php

To create a new issue search for your issue first (there is no other way to create a new issue).
If you don’t see your issue in the search results, a “Create New Case” button is now visible.

Thanks Tim. I downloaded the Feedback application and submitted a bug report. I like the way Xojo provides a formal channel for bug reports.
