Revision 40

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

Since I hadn’t worked on the source code for a very long time, I wanted to try and improve or fix something minor. So I skimmed through the source code in an attempt to refresh my memory.

From the synopsis of the parselog script it read that you can set the path where local copies of images and thumbnails are stored from the command line using –imagedir. Turns out that this option was not yet implemented. The setting could be set from a config file, but not as an argument to the parselog script.

While fixing this I noticed that it’s better to install the Perl modules on the workstation as well so EPIC (plugin for Eclipse to support Perl syntax highlighting and object outline) wouldn’t yell at modules it can’t find. Haven’t made the trip to CPAN as of yet, but I’m planning to! ;-)

I tested the change and it works like a charm. Then I committed the changes to the source code repository and revision 40 was called into existence.

On to bigger challenges…
