File Release Notes and Changelog
Release Name: 1.1.0
Notes:
hi,
this is version 1.1 of mozip.NET, a GUI (graphic) version of
piaip's mozip command line utility. like mozip, it allows the
user to manipulate the content of the Mozilla Suite or
SeaMonkey installer. i know i missed version 1.0, but this
version isn't 100% functional either. since i added some
features, i thought i'll upgrade the version number.
if you missed the previous releases, it features a
WinZip-like UI where you can see the modules in the
installer, and select which to delete or extract. you can
also test the modules, and in the future, add modules too.
this release has only minor changes. i think i'll solve the
file adding problem when i upgrade my machine to .net 2.0. i
can't do it yet because i have another project which relies
on version 1.1, so until i'll do, i thought to release the
latest code out.
system requirements
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1. it is available from
WindowsUpdate, under the "software, optional" link at the
left bar, or from http://tinyurl.com/4y9vv. i know there are
other implementations of the .NET Framework, but i haven't
tested them.
2. Win2k and higher. although the .NET Framework is available
to Win98 and above, the program uses Win32 API only present
in WinNT kernels.
known bugs
~~~~~~~~~~
1. adding modules doesn't work.
known problems
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
these are not bugs, but things that should be corrected.
1. no graphics or logo. any help in this section is
appriciated, because my graphic abilities are quite limited
:) for the buttons i think 16x16 pixels images will do, and
for the system menu (top-left window corner) i'll need a
32x32 .ico image. i also need a logo, though i had something
i mind - some combination of the red lizard and the squeezer
of winzip.
2. the memory footprint is about 13MB, and that might double
while updating the installer. this can be reduced to some
degree.
Changes:
- extracting multiple files now works
- GPL window is displayed during installation (but the GPL
itself is not)
- added Open button to toolbar
