- Localization Verifier
- Release Notes
-
- { Version info must be updated in the v.menu script. The commando dialogs
- will be updated from there
- }
-
-
- Version 1.0 - February 9, 1994
- • Added decompression feature
- • Cleaned up interface, adding country pop-up
- Fixed the following bugs:
- • A missing resource is reported both in the Missing section and in the Should Not section.
- • New error messages in the report for the vers resources
- • While checking the paths of the defaults, the list file is ignored.
- • If a path is not valid and the •No Default• string is put in the Create Report dialog,
- the new selected path is not remembered in the defaults
-
- Version 1.0c1 - October 15, 1993
- Fixed the following bugs:
- • When resource missing from master file, reports on this resource in the different
- or same sections and shouldnt. (Still reports warning as missing in Test file as it
- should however.) From Chris 9/17
- • Add a comparison to flag when the mod date is earlier than the create date-Gidi
- • Removing "*" from "*No Default*" in language code/integer causes a crash. To fix
- this bug, I created a country code pop-up.
- • If the ".lst" file is removed from the directory and the verifier is run with
- the "use existing file list" option checked, it will create a new empty file and
- will go ahead until an "empty file" alert; It should stop and warn user earlier than this.
- • Changing the name of a folder in the path of one of the files will cause the
- Verifier to reset the item with "*No Default*"; It should alert the user that his
- default setting was changed because it could no longer be found.
- • When a "-" is in the folder title and the volume name has 2 or more words the
- tool stops working properly. (Not fixed yet! Couldn't reproduce it!)
- • When filename in Master folder is 30+ characters in length, the rName generation
- fails with an error in the worksheet, but also shows an alert saying the rNames were
- created correctly.
-
- Version 1.0b1 - June 24, 1993
- • The Verify dialog now contains the Language Code, Language Integer, and
- the Report Folder. This way you don't ever need to set defaults if you
- don't want to. Also included an updated IntlVersCheck tool from Pete.
-
- Version 1.0a16 - May 14, 1993
- • The version of the Verifier is now the 1st line in the report.
- This version will be used to train the new localizers. They may in fact
- bring this home with them!
-
- Version 1.0a15 - May 12, 1993
- • Changed install to delete old Verifier files, and continue on to install the
- new files. Before, install would delete, then user would have to "install"
- again.
- • Added a Report/Filelist default directory item in the defaults dialog.
- If no default is set, these files will be created automatically in the
- current MPW directory set at time the Verifier is run.
- • Added an "instant default update" feature in the "Create Report" dialog
- that will automatically use user inputs as defaults if no default was
- previously defined.
- • The FileList and the Report files are now automatically named based on the
- Product name entered with the addition of the suffixes ".rpt" for the report
- file, and ".lst" for the filelist.
- • Added the CheckSum and vers resource checking code from SCM. Mainly only simple
- change to "v.verify" to call the "CheckSumTool" and "IntlVersCheck" tools. Other
- files changed were v.menu, v.setDefaultStrings, v.defaultstrings, v.getDefaultStrings
- v.setFilesnameVars to deal with the new variables {LangCode} and {LangInt}. Still
- outstanding bug in the IntlVersCheck tool with the Finder file.
-
- Version 1.0a14 - March 10, 1993
- Commando interface now in place. No more directory settings required!
- Installation now customized for countries and for ISS. Countries still
- enter "install", ISS will enter "install ISS" to get the additional
- "Create rNames" menu item. Default menu item added to enable speedy
- Verifier executions. Small report interface changes. Version numbers
- of files with "vers 1" resources now displayed in the report header.
-
- Version 1.0a13 - September 16, 1992
- The report now goes to a user named file. The worksheet is no longer used. A
- report header has been created. The user's name and the product name that is being
- tested is now prompted for and written out to the report's header. Also all the
- US files being tested are listed in the new header. The "rName" generation is
- now a separate menu item and is now generated from files in the US folder. The
- broken "check disk" menu option was removed.
-
- Version 1.0a12 - Jan 24, 1992
- Changed makelist script to put double quotes around the creator type gotten from
- the catinfo tool so as not to loose possible trailing spaces inside the 4 char
- creator field.
-
- Version 1.0a11 - Jan 10, 1992
- Changed resdiff.p and Create.rNamefile.p to create and open the rNames
- without the '.rNames' part of the suffix. So now the suffix is just '.S/C/U'.
-
- Version 1.0a10 - May 31, 1991
- Fixed bug that looked at the test folder instead of the master folder when
- creating the filelist.
-
- Version 1.0a9 - May 31, 1991
- Reports on creation date differences.
-
- Version 1.0a8 - May 31, 1991
- Reversed how the filelist is generated. It is now based on the test folder files
- instead of the Master folder files. Reports on system 7 attributes much better.
-
- Version 1.0a7 - May 17, 1991
- Changed the "Check-Disk" script file to no longer reqire the first test file
- in the correspondence filelist to exist. This allows a smaller number of files
- in the test folder than the master folder to be compared without aborting the
- compares. An error in opening the test files will still appear, but that could
- be ignored as long as you are aware of what files you know should be and should
- not be compared.
-
- Version 1.0a6 - May 7, 1991
-
- Changed the "GetResource" calls to "Get1Resource" calls in the ResDiff.p file.
- This will ensure only the resources in the compared files will be looked at,
- and not other open resources down further in the resource chain.
- I also am creating the ".U" file now for you when you create the 'rNames' files.
-
- Version 1.0a5 - January 11, 1991
-
- Fixed a bug that reported "-No file attributes set-" when some attributes
- in fact could have been set. Now, only attribute differences will be reported
- on.
-
- Version 1.0a4 - December 13, 1990
-
- Fixed a bug that did not report on ".U" resources that were different. All
- resources in the ".U" should be reported on!
-
- Version 1.0a3 - July 3, 1990
-
- Report header rewritten to match functionality.
- Cleaned up debugs etc.
-
-
- Version 1.0a2 - March 9, 1990
-
- Added the ability to process a third text file: the ".U" or "Unknown" file.
- This file must contain those resources that may or may not be the same on
- a comparison between the US master and the localized master file.
- Information on this file is presented in a separate section of the report
- displayed in the active MPW window.
-
- Note that the header of the report that explains the tool is inaccurate.
- This and more will be fixed in a3. A2 is rushed to be used for FastStart.
