[2.06] Settings not removed from Window when moved
|
Yet another settings shell game. In this one the settings hang around where they shouldn't.
Procedure
1. Launch CMud
2. Close Sessions Window (ESC)
3. Enter "#Class testy;#VAR abc 1;#CLASS 0" at the command line without the quotes
4. Open Package Editor (CTRL-G)
5. Select File|New in the Pakcage Editor menu
6. Give your package a name, and wait for it to display
7. Hit Convert to Window, to change your new package's module into a window
8. Click on the 'untitled' tab in the Package Editor
9. Drag the 'testy' class to your new package's tab
10. Enter "#CLASS;#VAR" in the untitled window's command line without the quotes. |

Confirmed.
Bug reports like ever confirm your status as Guru. Are you a software engineer or do quality management by any chance? |

Actually this one was found while trying to replicate the settings not existing bug from a clean launch. Something looked a little wierd so I hunted it down. The devil is in the details. The bugs are found in the details. Faulty logic, the devil is a bug that must be squashed.
I am just a hobbyist programmer, and have been for over 25 years. Quality management for me means, can I step back at the end of a job and look over everything involved and feel happy with the work done on that job. If I am not happy then someone else paying for it probably won't be happy either. If I am happy then probably someone else working on it is not happy. Make of it what you will. |

Confirmed and fixed for 2.07. Converting a Module to a Window wasn't resetting the "External" flag from the Module, so the InScope routines were returning true because the settings were still in an external module.window. I fixed the Convert to Window routine, and I also changes the InScope routine to also check to see if something is a window instead of just checking the external flag.
And yeah, I think I share the same philosophy as Vijilante and I can sum it up as "Nobody is ever happy"  |
