- Description:
- Name - Your full name (so I can name you in the bug-fix-report :-)
- Version - Version of XDME you were using. You can also specify a
- range here (ie. V1.60 - V1.80) to indicate that the bug
- was already in a previous version.
- Config - What do you use also ? I do not need much info about
- hardware. Info about additional software, you are running
- is more informative for me. If you look at bug 3, (the
- file-requester-problem), the problem is that MFR 2.0e
- has some bugs and usually crashes when invoked from XDME.
- Use MFR 2.0d instead.
- Bug x - Every bug in it's own bug-report. This helps me to answer
- you (I can insert text after the bug-report) and to
- check the problem in the code (I can check-mark everything
- I did fix).
- Another thing is the FORM :-) Be specific ! Don't tell
- long stories (which sometimes help, though) but say
- "I did this and this and then this and XDME responded with
- that", ie. a (more or less) straight way that leads to the
- bug. It does not help much if you say "I cannot read the
- text". Does that mean "XDME trashes the display" or
- "it doesn't redraw the screen correctly" or "I cannot see
- any text in the window at all !" ?
- If you have a problem, try to fix it (ie. change the
- pens for the colors). If you have a solution, I can save much
- time looking for it. Don't hesitate to change the code and
- recompile. There should be anything in it to allow this
- (and if it isn't, you should complain !).
- You meet a GURU ? XDME comes with full symbol-table for
- debugging. Run you favourite debugger and tell me the
- routine that did it. You should also include some
- disassembled code since I work on XDME very often and
- the code-adresses of your version and mine will very well
- be different.
- Enforcer-Hit ? Give me the full output of enforcer or
- (better :-) hunt the hit down yourself (like the GURU).
- Bug 4 - If you want to include shell-commands (or stuff I should
- enter in the shell), use "> " as a prefix for the line
- and indent it appropriately. If the line is too long, split
- it between two words and indent the rest, too.
- Bug 5 - This is like Bug 4, but "% " is used for stuff to be entered
- in XDME's commandline mode.
-
- Thanks for making my life easier :-)
