Re: [Rails-devel] Corrections to Loading Game from Command Line

I thought that maybe if user opens a game from a file and then save it under a different name then the original name is removed from MRU and the new one is added. This could be even enhanced that all the saved names are added in case user saves the game several times (this supports my way of saving: we play in one file and do a snapshot after each full round).
Other solutions which I thought of were:
Save some info with the game file, at beast at the start of the file and then use it to fine most “recent” file among series (it is all files from a single game would share a common id, GUID or something like that).
Or base on smae naming patterns.
But both seemed complex and fregile.
How do you see that with time-stamps?

A “recent files” item would be very useful, at least for me for the purpose of testing. But IMO it should not use filenames, but the file system last-changed timestamps. The filenames can be changed on saving, and that is what I usually do; example ‘18EU_OR1.rails’ for a saved 18EU game at the start of OR 1.
But the most important question perhaps is whether or not we can stand the slowdown caused by creating such a “recent files” list.

What do you mean by "recently opened games"? In play by email, the program appends a player name and timestamp to the filename. Would you be able to set it up to search the directories where games were previously saved, find the most recent timestamped file with the appropriate base filename, and list that?

The imports are result of mishandling Eclipse. I am not used to it yet (and on the search how to switch short-cuts to Windows-style...) Sorry for that.
I personaly do cosmetic changes if they make code styl consistent but its your call.
Now I was thinking of a redesign of initial window. So that the application lists recently opened games for example. What do you think of it?

Hi Adam,
Thanks for your fix. I haved applied it, except:
- the removed space in GameSetupWindow: cosmetic only.
- the qualifier in java.lang.String, which is completely redundant (I have left in your two other qualifiers, though, which at least save an import. But we normally don’t use any qualifiers).
- the unused import of InvocationTargetException.
For now sending patches is the way to go. Once you have gained a reputation of sending good patches, you will get commit access.
Erik.

The attachement contains an SVN Patch (done on trunk/18xx) correcting two errors associated with loading game from command line argument passed to the application:
1) After such load File | Save command (and possibly others as well) crushed with NullPointerException due to log4j NDC not containing game key. This was caused by NDC being initialized in main thread during application startup rather then in AWT-EventsQueue thread as it happend during normal application opening and loading game through Load Game button.
2) A save path is associated with the game just as if the game was loaded using Load Game button.
Do you accept those corrections? Should I commit them? What do I require to commit them? (On SourceForge my user name is "adambadura” just in case...)
