The Orphanage / Re: release new version of software?
« Last post by daydreamer on March 24, 2023, 08:48:00 PM »Timo I deliberately hardcoded data, because I want to make it harder to cheat in quiz
Array of
Struct
String Flowername
String jflowername
String flowermeaning
Easiest is loop read in from text files, if user wants to change to swedish instead
But I keep it simple with good old string (ascii) and a proc that convert to wchar
Can have unicode text files when needed to use unicode character sets,vs editor support to save source file in unicode format if it detects you use unicode characters
JJ when I did research for my SSE tutorial, I felt I must understand SSE with coding SSE experiments too,not just write theory, so only file names had numbering SSEexp 1,2,3,4
Now I documented SSEexp2bak with video, unfinished SSE screensaver,because ddraw is today obsolete
But recent year I name my repo backups same way you do,file folder name example "repo 2022 June"
So I can revert from earlier project folder inside repo folder if things go wrong

The Orphanage / Re: release new version of software?
« Last post by jj2007 on March 24, 2023, 07:47:33 PM »Firefox was near version 100 when I last checked - that's nonsense. My RichMasm versions are what the executable's time stamp says (currently 15.3.23). Plus, when you hit F9, it tells you more.
Re bug chasing: for my more important sources my IDE uses a rolling backup system. Once a day it creates an archive if (and only if) I changed something, so that I can go back up to 7 versions until I find a correct one.
Extremely useful for bug chasing: Micros*t Word! Open the source in Word, then go to Tools/Compare and merge versions, and compare to the last good version. You see immediately what you changed.

« Last post by caballero on March 24, 2023, 07:23:31 PM »> So what's your take from this?
Just give a point of view about it. I explicitly said that the girl is Russian in order to understand that her opinion can be subjective.

The Orphanage / Re: release new version of software?
« Last post by zedd151 on March 24, 2023, 01:42:47 PM »I've given up on version numbering a long time ago.
I am notorious for releasing updated software and forgetting to revise the version number. In one of my projects it became a royal pain "where the sun don't shine" to rerevise the later versions version numbers. Basically turned into a fustercluck... 
as some versions were released with wrong version numbers so when bug chasing became a nightmare as to which version XXX.xxx had the bugs.9

Since the site is in the hands of the Russians, it is obvious that the shelling must come from the other side...
Yes, that's what I thought too. I'm just too far away and too much in the "fog of war" here to say anything definitively ...
