NANY 2009 Release: LifeSaver diary

<< < (12/12)

Andreas Hofmann:
May I suggest making it compatible with Vista/7 by using the application data functionality? I just installed it, started it, created a new journal and when I wanted to create a new entry, I got this exception:

SpoilerSystem.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Program Files\LifeSaver\2009.lsd-1251885595815-local 1251885595809-2795304854568589289.transaction' is denied.

I can use the software by running it as Administrator, but that should not be necessary and is a hassle (for some reason, I can't rightclick on the created shortcuts and select "Run as Administrator", I have to navigate to C:\Program Files\LifeSaver and do it directly on LifeSaverApp.exe)

Once I've got it running, I really like it so far.

Andreas Hofmann:
Another tiny suggestion: When opening a file, the password dialog pops up. If the focus were on the input field, one could immediately type the password instead of having to click with the mouse first.

And as has already been mentioned above, the not updating entry list often startles me. Especially when I start the program for the second time on a day and all entries for the day seem to have disappeared.  :o

J-Mac:
Hey CW...

Two quick questions:


* First, are you still developing this? Looks nice so far!
* Second, does this just run from the setup file, like a portable app? Or does it install to Windows?
Thanks!

Jim

I haven't done much in a while. I've got a number of unreleased enhancements, waiting because a bug in the database engine created a risk that they could corrupt the datafile. That's a very bad thing for an app like this, so I've been holding off.

However, they're recently released changes that should help. Now I've got to get off my butt and integrate the new version.

There is a proper installer. However, once installed, I think it could be copied onto a portable device. You'd only be losing the file associations.
