Support for D2009?

Post by rwerning »

Any idea when you will support D2009? Currently it won't install correctly or build, the unicode support isn't there.

Hello,

and sorry for the late reply!

You can use this beta build:

http://madshi.net/madCollectionBeta.exe

It should work just fine with D2009. It's still a beta, though. An official new version will come in the next few days...

My project does not compile in D2009 due to missing madExcept.

Have you downloaded and installed the beta I linked to? Please rerun the installer, just to be sure... It seems to work for everyone else (at least as far as I can say).

The beta installed and compiles for me on D2009.

With D2009 I also don't have an annoying problem with the build process where it didn't generate map files (not a madExcept problem, but msbuild or something else on Vista x64).

Ah, yes. That's right. Adding D2009 support to madExcept 3.x was quite a bit of work for me. So doing that for madExcept 2.x was just too much.

It's now 2009 ...

I'm using the i'beta version and wonder when a final release will be shipped. A problem I'm looking forward to rid of is the garbled caption (using the %appname% variable). Don't know whether this is due to copying the message file from a D2007 installation, but then it should be OK when I change a string, shouldn't it.

Have you seen this posting: viewtopic.php?t=4785
Maybe this helps you while waiting for the final release.

Thanks for the public release.

I'm seeing several string warnings though. It's easy enough to squelch these in your source units, but I prefer not to modify them. Will you be adrdressing these?

These warnings will be fixed in the next build.
