Good Lord, this is even better than I thought!! It just saved my bacon - a file with a lot of modifications was overwritten but luckily, I had Steven's trusty auto-backup!! This just saved me a day and a half of work!!

Swordfish Backup Question

Post by Bryan » Thu May 01, 2008 4:17 am

Steven, thank's for sharing your Swordfish backup plugin - like most others that are using it, I've been "saved" more than a few times !
A quick question: I have a main program with includes four modules. If I make a change in one of the modules and then re-compile the main program, Swordfish re-compiles the module I changed and includes it. The backup plugin saves a backup of the main program but not the module I changed. In order to backup that module I need to re-compile it manually. Is that the normal operation of your plugin - just curious, its not a problem I just need to remember to re-compile whenever I make a change.
Thanks again
Bryan

The plugin doesn't recompile the includes - but I see your point and it would be a good idea if it did. I will add this - thanks. I might get it to save a folder during each compile, containing the .bas file and the include files also. I'll give it some thought.

I'm just guessing now, but it would seem that plugins are written in VB or VB.net do you have up to date runtime libraries for VB and perhaps VB.net?

On my system, running XP sp3 and everything 'just works'. I have .NET frameworks 1,2,3 & 3.5 installed. Perhaps you are missing some runtime libraries?
