DcUpdater / DcUpdater fails when checking for updates
« on: June 22, 2017, 11:56 PM »
Hi,

When I ask ScreenShotCaptor to check for updates, I get: "DcUpdater Warning: No valid packages found (with current search restrictions)".

In the operation log I find the following:

Code: Text [Select]
  1. ERROR: Config File '-dontofferdcupdaterpage' could not be loaded by TinyXml lib - Failed to open file
  2. ScreenshotCaptor: needs check
  3. DcUpdater Program: needs check

Any clue?

The "memory" option, as expected, doesn't affect the polling.

You don't need to poll to discover changes in a directory: use FindFirstChangeNotification (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa364417(v=vs.85).aspx) to get notified when something happens in the screenshot folder.

Hi,

While investigating my laptop's power consumption using "powercfg /energy" I noticed that ScreenshotCaptor is now listed as one of the processes that use the CPU in such a way that prevents it from being switched to its lowest-power mode. This was not the case previously (before 4.8?).

Process Explorer seems to reveal some sort of polling: see the huge number of cycles and context switches in the attached screenshot.

Can you please look into this (and fix the issue)?

Best regards,

Stéphane.

It seems this update fixes the problem with regional settings: I've set my machine to half a dozen different country settings, and ScreenShotCaptor correctly starts up and preserves settings e.g. the position of the main window (haven't tested further, though).

While I'm at it, I want to report a slight but visually annoying case issue: in the "copy to clipboard" menu on the systray icon, the word "bitmap" starts with an uppercase "B" whereas all other choices are in lowercase. Similarly, in the "To clipboard" menu of the post-capture dialog, "Image" and "File" start with an uppercase letter, whereas "path "starts with a lowercase "p." This should be aligned IMVHO.

HTH
