Re: [XMLPipeDB-developer] windows 7 issue

From: Kam D. <kda...@lm...> - 2010-08-23 22:49:06

Hi,

Sounds good.  I tried the vista.bat, but it won't open the program, 
so I'll wait for the update on Windows 7.  In the meantime, I can 
still test on XP.

The progress bar thing was more of a "I don't know how this is 
supposed to look" type thing.  I've just never seen a behavior like 
that before.  I think it's fine--it conveys that something is 
happening to the user and that he/she should wait.

Cheers,
Kam

Re: [XMLPipeDB-developer] windows 7 issue

Greetings,

The Access database location issue is probably the same one encountered with Vista.  We had some code in there that goes something like "if it's Vista, look for the Jet engine here..."  We'll probably need an equivalent for Windows 7; I'll look it up.

The progress bar look is, unfortunately, Java's standard look for progress bars that don't display definite amounts done.  The display of definite values may or may not be possible, depending on whether a mechanism exists for reporting how much progress has been made (many of our import calls are "one-liners" --- i.e., one invokes the command and waits for it to be done; there is no default "status report" as the command is in progress).  I can look into that, but there is a chance that it may not be possible (especially for the code that relies on other libraries in particular).

[XMLPipeDB-developer] windows 7 issue

From: Kam D. <kda...@lm...> - 2010-08-23 18:33:22

Hi,

Good news and bad news.  gmb2b50 works on XP--I didn't put it through 
all of its paces, but it imports and exports Vibrio OK.  However, it 
has a couple issues on my new Windows 7 setup.

1.  When I go through the export wizard, it doesn't see all of the 
database xrefs, so it only asks me about the OrderedLocus and 
GeneOntology tables.  (it does see them in XP)

2.  The export crashes with the error attached.  It seems to have 
something to do with connecting to the Access database--you would 
know better, but I'm guessing that there were changes made to the 
Microsoft Jet engine in 7?

Not an exclusive 7 issue, I'm not sure how the progress bar you used 
should behave, but what it looks like is pong, the bar slides back 
and forth in the window, it doesn't show progress, per se, just more 
like an indicator that it is busy.

I'll go back to testing on XP for the time being so that I can look 
at all the changes made.

Cheers,
Kam
