It's not really that easy. Well, potentially, but switching to a column view actually requires a lot of Qt Plumbing. In terms of work vs payoff, simply not including that file tag will work for now, but long term potentially switching to a column view is an option.NeuralStunner wrote:I mentioned the possibility of sticking it into a new column (same for ports/IWads in the Settings tab).

Re: qZDL 3.0.5.7 Beta Released (UPDATED April 27th)
Binaries built against 8.04 should work fine in 12.04. (The APIs change slightly so it doesn't always work the other way around. That said I do all of the drdteam packages against 10.04.) I make deb packages with the following command:QBasicer wrote:If you tell me how, I can create a jenkins build and run it on either a Hardy (8.04?) or Precise (12.04) machines and make drops to an FTP server somewhere (or to my own site).
Code: Select all
dpkg-deb -z9 -Zlzma -b <package_directory> <package.deb>
The package_directory needs to have a DEBIAN directory with a text file named control in it. Otherwise you simply place files in it as you would like them to appear on the destination machine relative to root. So you might create package_directory/usr/bin and put the binary there.
The control file would look something like this:
Code: Select all
Package: <name, all lower case>
Version: <version number>
Section: web
Priority: optional
Architecture: <i386|amd64>
Essential: no
Depends: <package>, <package>, <package>

Re: qZDL 3.0.5.7 Beta Released (UPDATED April 27th)
I'm running 3.0.5.7, and have two issues: first, the Open File dialog box takes a really long time to appear, and second, I can't use the mouse wheel to scroll the list in List View.
[edit] Well, actually, I can use my mouse's horizontal action to scroll it, but this goes against Windows' behavior of letting you use the actual wheel to scroll if there's no vertical scroll bar.

Re: qZDL 3.0.5.7 Beta Released (UPDATED April 27th)
The file dialogue doesn't take long to appear on my system but if I do click the add button I can hear my 3.5" A: drive (yes, I still have one) checking to see if there is a disk in it. So, perhaps add file thingy is checking all your drives or something.

This could be because (as Enjay mentioned) drives are being checked. If there's any network drives that are trying to connect, that could be the issue. Windows is notorious for it's poor handing of networking devices. Are there any CD/DVDs in any drives when you open? I have little (no) control over what this dialog does unless I re-write it from scratch (non-trivial to the point that I can't) Does the save file dialogs open slowly too? (CTRL+S) Does anybody else have this issue? I've opened a github issue.
#2,
I tried reproducing here, and I'm able to scroll just fine. Did you click the list view before trying to scroll? Are there or are there not vertical scroll bars? I didn't re-implement the behaviour, so it's a deeper Qt issue then. Which of the list-views are you trying to scroll? I have 3 implemented. I've opened a github issue.

Re: qZDL 3.0.5.7 Beta Released (UPDATED May 25th 2012)
Wanted to report that the latest version (3.0.5.9) seems to be failing to load zdl.ini at startup. I always have to use the "load .ini" function to fix it

Is it loading the global initial instead? Check the first post on how to disable that, or run in diagnostics mode and give me zdl.log.Xtyfe wrote:Wanted to report that the latest version (3.0.5.9) seems to be failing to load zdl.ini at startup.

Re: qZDL 3.0.5.7 Beta Released (UPDATED May 25th 2012)
Ok, I have not been following qZDL's development at all, but I can't help but notice that it's a Qt application and someone is having an issue with the open file dialogue.
Earlier this year I working with a small team on a Qt application, and we also had this problem. For no apparent reason, on some computers, the open file dialogue would take forever to open, or simply become unresponsive. If you Google around, you'll see it's a known issue with Qt. Our solution was to implement one of Qt's alternate open file dialogue instead of the ready made one. Of course I may be wrong in this case, but if I were QB, I'd look into it.
Hope that's helps. (And we experienced the problem on Ubuntu and Windows, but mostly Ubuntu).

Re: qZDL 3.0.5.7 Beta Released (UPDATED May 25th 2012)
Okay, ever since you changed it to use the native dialog system, it seems you marked the flags wrong, because when I click "Load .zdl", it gives me a save prompt instead, which means it gives the "Are you sure?" before allowing me to load the file every time, which is kind of annoying.

Re: qZDL 3.0.5.7 Beta Released (UPDATED May 25th 2012)
I've switched to using QFileDialog's static functions to open save/load dialogs, in Windows, this uses the Native dialog boxes. I'm unsure about the Ubuntu (Linux) performance, I haven't had any users report issues.Siggi wrote:Ok, I have not been following qZDL's development at all, but I can't help but notice that it's a Qt application and someone is having an issue with the open file dialogue.

Seeing as you guys are talking about debian packages, I had the sudden idea to make archlinux pkgbuilds for this.

You're certainly welcome to.
It may be worth pointing out that you can run configuration with "--disable-updater" to disable the internal updater. This of course comes with the caveat that I get no feedback on where I should focus my efforts (Bio's Gentoo EBuilds does this, I specifically implemented this option for package managers)

Re: qZDL 3.0.5.10 Beta Released (UPDATED June 14th 2012)
I'm having trouble getting a multiplayer game running, and a few other things.
Do I need to set a Net Mode and Dup, as well as enable it? Every time I put something for those, then open the Multi Settings, everything is blank again. Is that supposed to happen?
For some unknown reason, I can't save a .zdl. Every time I try, it ends up trying to load a .zdl when I specifically click "Save .zdl"
Can I put anything in Hostname/IP Address? Does it have to be my IP Address, or can I just put "Ral22"?
Do I need to set a Frag Limit, even if it is in Co-op?
I'm using the latest version of QZDL on a Windows 7.

That sounds like a permissions problem of some sort. Where have you installed qZDL to on your HD?Ral22 wrote:For some unknown reason, I can't save a .zdl. Every time I try, it ends up trying to load a .zdl when I specifically click "Save .zdl"
Forget that. I can't save one properly either. The save dialogue appears but if you type in a new name it gives a "file not found" error.
However, if you even make a dummy file with a zdl extension, you can save over it. So, it can save but the file needs to exist already (ie it cannot save a new file).
