(Works for me) Bug(s) in Prefs/WBStartup

Post by Raziel »

WBStartup 53.30 (18.02.2018)

Steps to reproduce:
- Start up WBStartup
- Double-click on an entry to bring up Information and enter STARTPRI=-127 in the tooltypes
- Save

1st bug
- Double-click again and there will be another entry in the tooltypes with STARTPRI=128 (never entered that)
(btw, sometimes when i enter two different tooltypes. e.g. TOOLPRI=-1, then that second tooltype shows up duplicated as well)

2nd bug
- Do the 1st bug steps and after they were saved, there is an erroneously set empty newline at the bottom
(even if the newline was deleted beforehand)

3rd bug (but that may have been a coincidence)

Have AmiUpdate installed, running and set in WBStartup

-Repeat the 1st bugs step a few times and you'll eventually get hit by an error window
AmiUpdate
Unexpected error parsing XML file at line 2727 column 1
Error code 5: unclosed token
Seems as if WBStartup erroneously reads programs XML settings?
(No XML settings were saved btw, it did report the error on reading them or so it seems...why it did that, is beyond me, though)

It didn't happen for me.

When I bring up the info window again with a double-click after having saved it with the STARTPRI=-127 tooltype, the tooltype is gone, and the Start priority field is set to -127 (which is what I'd expect). I'm using RAWBInfo 54.1, BTW; I assume you are too?

My WBStartup prefs has the same version as yours.

Didn't see any newlines in the tooltypes, the field was completely empty as explained above. I didn't try recreating your third bug, as it probably won't make sense when I didn't see the first one.

Best regards,
