Re: #1151 - Auto Update Scan - no patching?

Hi, Linder.
Just a follow up...
I tried again today, and of course, it worked perfectly.
I did the same I was doing before.
Go figure...

Re: #1151 - Auto Update Scan - no patching?

Jorge,

We have tested this on five different machines (Win2000, XP Home and Pro, SP2). We cannot reproduce this here :-(

Would it be possible to zip-up a simple old files/new files directory tree and then send this to us?

Our test project generated 1,756 patch files (located in 67 sub-folders).

Re: #1151 - Auto Update Scan - no patching?

Hi, Linder.
I'm sure.
Well, mine is not the same as your example, but in the form of:
Previous
c:\1151\full\dev\win
c:\1151\full\dev\win\bin
c:\1151\full\dev\win\lib
and New:
c:\1154\full\dev\win
c:\1154\full\dev\win\bin
c:\1154\full\dev\win\lib

I select the wizard from c:\1151 to c:\1154.
Shoudn't this work?
Actually is patching only those diferent from the root c:\1154 to c:\1151, but it does NOT patch those under
c:\1154\full
c:\1154\full\dev
c:\1154\full\dev\win
c:\1154\full\dev\win\bin and
c:\1154\full\dev\win\lib

These 5 folders are being filled with "(always install)" files. But not EVERY file on those folders, but only those that are in the new and in the previous ones, so there IS some finding involved. It find enough to pick only the modified files (~400 out of 2000) but they are not flagged as "patch" (only in the root).
Running again the wizard, IF instead of from c:\1151 to c:\1154 I pick for example from previous c:\1151\full\dev\win
to New c:\1154\full\dev\win then the folder "win" is correctly patched, but files on
c:\1154\full\dev\win\bin and
c:\1154\full\dev\win\lib
are picked as different but not flagged as patched.

Any clue?

Re: #1151 - Auto Update Scan - no patching?

Jorge,

Please make sure the sub-folder names are the same for previous and new files.

For example:

Previous:
c:\file_pool\full\dev\1151
c:\file_pool\full\dev\1151\Bin
c:\file_pool\full\dev\1151\Lib

New:

c:\file_pool\full\dev\1154
c:\file_pool\full\dev\1154\Bin
c:\file_pool\full\dev\1154\Lib

If it does not create a patch object, then the wizard was unable to find a previous version and adds the files (no patching).

Re: #1151 - Auto Update Scan - no patching?

I can confirm that now (#1154) there is some problem with the subfolders only. If I choose a subfolder as previous and new folders, then all the files inside THAT folder appears as "(patch)" in the script, but those BELOW that folders appears as "(always install)" only.

Re: #1151 - Auto Update Scan - no patching?

Ok, updated succesfully from #1151 to #1154.
Tried again, and now I have the one file in the root folder ready for patched. The others files in subfolders are not patched, but ready for full install. i.e. it only worked for the root folder (the one that has different name). It didn't work for the folders with the same name hanging from that one.
Is this a clue for something?

We'll activate the new WebUpdate build within the next 45 minutes.

Thanks,

Great!!
That's a relief. I hope you can release it soon.

Re: #1151 - Auto Update Scan - no patching?

Jorge,

I can reproduce a similar problem with #1130, but the new #1154 seems to work fine. The new build is completely compiled with Clarion 6.2 now.
