After this is tested, I may release it.

EDIT: Download Removed, 2.6.8 is released!

as windows vista is storing the WTF in the virtual store, UU does not find it an did not recognise the SV folder
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WTF\ should be checked if vista is installed.

What i conclued by my tests, is the following:
On vista wow inspects if there is a WTF folder in the program files\wow folder, if so this one is use. (this mostly happens when someone is just copying his wow installation folder an a new vista machine.

If a fresh installation of wow is made an a vista machine there is no WTF folder at the first launch and wow will store the WTf in the VirtualStore

np further test possible for me or i have to migrate my WTF back

it's a bit more complicated, wow on vista did not check if WTF existst, but inspect the SV it self, if it's not existent in the programm files WTF, the it will be saved to the virtualstore WTF !!

This is false as well. On vista, wow will try to save to WTF. However, under normal user permissions, it won't be allowed to, and WINDOWS will save it in the VirtualStore instead. The version in the WTF directory is not used if there is a VirtualStore version, and all new or modified files are stored in VirtualStore.

The same is true for the Cache folder, and auto-updated addons.

I have not heard of this kind of problem before. There is no problem with Vista? I have not changed the behavior of LUA file handling or Addon handling.

I would rather several people confirm this before I start cannibalizing things.

sorry for the trouble, but in my case UU did not see the account used by my wow installation.
As i got all WTF data in the virtualstore i thought i would help to post my opinion.
Sorry or the mistake if so.
If i understood you well PleegWat it's due to insufisant rigth or a miss configured windows ?

(Note I'm not on vista)

A UU compiled on windows XP(!) should work flawlessly. Windows Vista will see it is an XP program, and like with WoW, overlay the VirtualStore directory over the 'real' directory.

A UU compiled on windows vista will not be able to update addons, and will not see any modifications in the WTF directory since the computer has been updated to vista (or nothing at all, if wow was originally installed on vista).
This problem with a vista-compiled UU can only be fixed by explicitly accounting for the virtualstore system in the UU source.

Summarizing, a UU compiled on windows XP, started normally without administrator rights, should work like it does on XP.

Interesting. I had no idea the resulting executable has any difference when compiled on vista as opposed to xp.

Can you confirm this? (no vista to test with here)

A few quick hacks... (NOTE: All the below info is just in ref to MainForm.cs no other file needs to be edited)

If anyone is wanting to stop the X button from closing the uploader (I had some of my friends request this cos they kept accidently closing instead of minimizing) go to the start of the MainForm.cs at this line:

Code: Select all

    public class MainForm : UniUploader.GUI_helper
    {


And change it so its this:

Code: Select all

    public class MainForm : UniUploader.GUI_helper
    {
      private const int CP_NOCLOSE_BUTTON = 0x200;
      protected override CreateParams CreateParams
      {
         get
         {
            CreateParams myCp = base.CreateParams;
            myCp.ClassStyle = myCp.ClassStyle | CP_NOCLOSE_BUTTON ;
            return myCp;
         }
      }


That will disable the X button, (when I get time I'll see about coding an option together to make the X be optional to minimize instead of close, but for now this will suffice).

Next...

In ref to the new submenu options in the systray icons menu, add this function:

Code: Select all

        private void doContextMenuMoveToBottom(string text)
        {
            foreach (MenuItem mi in contextMenu1.MenuItems)
            {
                if (mi.Text == text)
                {
                    contextMenu1.MenuItems.RemoveAt(mi.Index);
                    contextMenu1.MenuItems.Add(menuItem3);
                }
            }
        }


(or name it whatever you want, I just wrote it like that to explain what it is quickly, shoulda really added some comments to it but *shrugs*).

Then at the bottom of the doHomeURL() and doForumURL() functions (one, or the other, or both, doesn't really matter it seems), add:

Code: Select all

         // Put the Exit option at the BOTTOM of the list!
         doContextMenuExit("Exit");


Before the final "}".

This will force the Exit option to move to the bottom of the list, :-) Instead of having it above the 2 new items (in the middle of the list).

Quick an dirty hack but it works, ;-)

I also wrote together a new url entry option for those who release custom UniUploaders and have their own updates page. Instead of them getting updates from http://www.wowroster.net/uniuploader_up ... update.php

It works great, and means you can have the updater set to any url.

And here ya go, the info on how to add the url entry for custom updater stuff...

Find:

Code: Select all

        private System.Windows.Forms.Button autoAddonSyncNow;


Add below it:

Code: Select all

        private System.Windows.Forms.Label label21;
        private System.Windows.Forms.TextBox UpdatesURL;


Next find:

Code: Select all

        public string _SYNCHURL = "Synchronization URL:";


And add below it:

Code: Select all

        public string _UPDATESURL = "Updates URL:";


Find:

Code: Select all

            this.AutoAddonURL = new System.Windows.Forms.TextBox();


Add below it:

Code: Select all

            this.label21 = new System.Windows.Forms.Label();
            this.UpdatesURL = new System.Windows.Forms.TextBox();


Find:

Code: Select all

            this.groupBox11.Controls.Add(this.AutoAddonURL);


An again, below it:

Code: Select all

            this.groupBox11.Controls.Add(this.label21);
            this.groupBox11.Controls.Add(this.UpdatesURL);


Find:

Code: Select all

            //
            // label12
            //
            this.label12.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(8, 88);
            this.label12.Name = "label12";
            this.label12.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(152, 16);
            this.label12.TabIndex = 3;
            this.label12.Text = "Synchronization URL:";
            //
            // AutoAddonURL
            //
            this.AutoAddonURL.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(8, 112);
            this.AutoAddonURL.Name = "AutoAddonURL";
            this.AutoAddonURL.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(280, 20);
            this.AutoAddonURL.TabIndex = 2;
            this.AutoAddonURL.Text = "http://XXXXXXX.XXX/uniadmin/interface.php";


Replace with (replaced due to the 2 above items being moved a little to make room for the 2 new items, and to keep things looking neat):

Code: Select all

            //
            // label12
            //
            this.label12.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(8, 107);
            this.label12.Name = "label12";
            this.label12.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(152, 16);
            this.label12.TabIndex = 3;
            this.label12.Text = "Synchronization URL:";
            //
            // AutoAddonURL
            //
            this.AutoAddonURL.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(8, 123);
            this.AutoAddonURL.Name = "AutoAddonURL";
            this.AutoAddonURL.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(280, 20);
            this.AutoAddonURL.TabIndex = 2;
            this.AutoAddonURL.Text = "http://XXXXXXX.XXX/uniadmin/interface.php";
            //
            // label21
            //
            this.label21.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(8, 69);
            this.label21.Name = "label21";
            this.label21.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(152, 16);
            this.label21.TabIndex = 3;
            this.label21.Text = "Updates URL:";
            //
            // UpdatesURL
            //
            this.UpdatesURL.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(8, 85);
            this.UpdatesURL.Name = "UpdatesURL";
            this.UpdatesURL.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(280, 20);
            this.UpdatesURL.TabIndex = 2;
            this.UpdatesURL.Text = "http://www.wowroster.net/uniuploader_updater2/update.php";


Find:

Code: Select all

                                case "SYNCHROURL":
                                    AutoAddonURL.Text = settingValue;
                                    break;


Add below:

Code: Select all

                                case "UPDATESURL":
                                    UpdatesURL.Text = settingValue;
                                    break;


Again, another find:

Code: Select all

                    ini.AddValue("updater", "SYNCHROURL", AutoAddonURL.Text);


Add below:

Code: Select all

                    ini.AddValue("updater", "UPDATESURL", UpdatesURL.Text);


Search for:

Code: Select all

                        case "SYNCHROURL":
                            AutoAddonURL.Text = settingSplit[1];
                            break;


Below add:

Code: Select all

                        case "UPDATESURL":
                            UpdatesURL.Text = settingSplit[1];
                            break;


Search for and delete all traces of:

Code: Select all

            string updaterLocation = "http://www.wowroster.net/uniuploader_updater2/update.php";


Should only be 3 to be found.

Then search for and replace all traces of:

Code: Select all

updaterLocation


With:

Code: Select all

UpdatesURL.Text


Should be a total of 7 items.

(Nearly done!)

Find:

Code: Select all

                            case "_SYNCHURL":
                                _SYNCHURL = @settingValue;
                                break;


Below it add:

Code: Select all

                            case "_UPDATESURL":
                                _UPDATESURL = @settingValue;
                                break;


Find:

Code: Select all

            autoAddonSyncNow.Text = _SYNCHNOW;


Below it add:

Code: Select all

            label21.Text = _UPDATESURL;


That should be about everything, you'll now see a new menu option listed. :-D

Oh, and in ref to that updatesurl thing I also modded the UniAdmin system so that it now has a new option to let you select the url used there too, if anyone wants this code let me know and I'll paste the info. I'll paste it anyways, but only when I get time, :-)

nice updates mod, that may be "wikiworthy"!

There's a wierd mist of vista buggyness in the air, so I refrain from releasing UU until that's cleared up.

I really wish I knew what is fact.

I was thinking about the exit entry in the context menu "wierd" not at the bottom but i shrugged it off as I enjoy being lazy. Thanks for doing that work for me!

:-) No probs, glad to be of help. Am constantly looking into tweaking an stuff.

As to vista, yeah major probs from various people in ref to vista. Typical micro$oft. I had someone tell me they couldn't do the update function on UU cos it came up with some error and the only way to get it to update was to quit the app and update manually. I asked them to let me know what the error said but they'd forgot. The only info I got from them was that they were running vista lol. I've asked my friends to keep check out and if any get any more problems to grab a screenshot and as much info as poss to let me know whats going wrong exactly, :-)

If I come up with any more tweaks, fixes, etc, I'll let ya know, :-)

And heres my info on updating the UniAdmin system to work with my aforementioned UniUploader patch to allow custom sites to update their UU application. 3 simple steps this time, instead of a load of changes, ;-)

-=-=- mysql_data -=-=-
Execute the following mysql code into your mysql uniadmin database:

Code: Select all

### Settings
INSERT INTO `uniadmin_settings` (`set_name`, `set_value`, `enabled`, `section`, `form_type`) VALUES
   ('UPDATESURL', 'http://www.wowroster.net/uniuploader_updater2/update.php', '0', 'updater', 'text{250|50');


Done with the mysql data.

-=-=- language/english.php -=-=-
Search for

Code: Select all

$lang['ALLOWADDONDEL'] = 'Allow UniAdmin to DELETE addons';


Add below it:

Code: Select all

$lang['UPDATESURL'] = 'URL for UniUpdater updates/upgrades';


Done with English.php

-=-=- images/UPDATESURL.jpg -=-=-
And finally copy into the "images" directory the "UPDATESURL.jpg" file attached.

Thats it, all done, the UniAdmin system is now capable of telling the UniUploader (with my previously uploaded patch info that is) to update/upload UU from a custom listed site. Note it defaults to http://www.wowroster.net/uniuploader_up ... update.php but you can change this once you have it all running.

Enjoy, :-)

Added to UniAdmin in the SVN

I'll implement this before release, thanks again!

No probs guys, glad to be of help! :-D An even more glad to know the stuff I wrote is going in the releases! Weeeeeee *dances* lol. (Soz, hehehe).
