Re: [Monkeymessenger-list] SVN rev 189 bug

[Guillaume B. <gui...@gm...>]

I had the same bug so i looked at the code,

in MonkeyMSN.cs


        string user = UnixUserInfo.GetLoginName();
        string localedir = (new UnixUserInfo(user).HomeDirectory +
        "/.monkeymsn/locale");


in my case the GetLoginName() function returned nothing so the user
string was empty and UnixUserInfo(user).HomeDirectory failed

i found a fix but it's not really elegant, at least it work, just change
those line by these


        string path =
        Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment .SpecialFolder.ApplicationData);
        int lastslash = path.LastIndexOf("/");
        path = path.Substring(0,lastslash);
        string localedir = path + "/.monkeymsn/locale";


then rebuild
