AROS Archives - clean up

[Amiwell]

amigasystem sorry but the program found on aminet works for me

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Yes because I think it was replaced after my report, check file date and file size, now they are different  !


EDIT:

I wasn't wrong, I confirm that the "SploinerGUI-Amiga" archives on Aminet, in today's day have been replaced, see screenshot, also the version has changed, this first was v1.0, now is 1.0r3

[deadwood]

FYI, I deleted the 1.0 upload and approved 1.0r3 upload.

Thanks deadwood, for my previous post on "WildMidi", how should I deal with it ?

On the topic of Wild:

1) License - it is ok to upload GPL-licensed software. You don't have to include neither sources nor documentation in the archive, but you need to include a README file with an URL of where the sources can be obtained.

2) For replacing the older version, the idea solution would be for you to change source code such that the config file is read from one location not from each location of midi file. It might be as simple as finding in source code a place where a config name if given and the adding ENV: before it. So if you know the config file is named "foo.cfg", find in source code where this string is present and see if changing it to "ENV:foo.cfg" make it being read from one location.

I leave to you the decision on whether to upload your compiled new version to Archives. If you do, I suggest to replace the older version.

Thanks for replying, I think this is the string that needs to be changed, any suggestions for how to set the path to WildMidi.cfg in Env-Archive. Maybe I need to put it at the post of "n" ?

Code: [Select]

printf("  -c P  --config=P    Point to your wildmidi.cfg config file name/path\n");
    printf("                      defaults to: %s\n", WILDMIDI_CFG);
About the source link is this okay ?

Link is ok. About code, this is not the right place. I guess this code prints help message. What you need to now see is where the WILDMIDI_CFG variable is set to a value and add ENV: there.

It's probabably going to be something like:

Code: [Select]

const char * WILDMIDI_CFG = "WildMidi.cfg"

or

Code: [Select]

#define WILDMIDI_CFG "WildMidi.cfg"


[AMIGASYSTEM]

Found the string "#define WILDMIDI_CFG "WildMidi.cfg" Inside 3 files:

Include/config.h.cmake

Code: [Select]

/* Name of package */
#define PACKAGE "wildmidi"
Amiga/config.h

Code: [Select]

/* wildmidi config for amigaos variants */
#define WILDMIDI_AMIGA 1

#define WILDMIDI_CFG "wildmidi.cfg"
CMakeLists.txt

Code: [Select]

IF (UNIX AND NOT APPLE AND NOT RISCOS)
    SET(WILDMIDI_CFG "/etc/wildmidi/wildmidi.cfg" CACHE STRING "default config location")
Do I need to edit all the files ? how ?:

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Solved, edited the config.h file , also copied the file "wildmidi.cfg" to ENV, which in turn will look for the instruments in in the Timidity volume: 

Code: [Select]

#define WILDMIDI_CFG "ENV:wildmidi.cfg"

Now the new WildMidi v0.4.5 can be used as a tool on the Def_MIDI.info-

Uploaded to aros archive, you can delete the old version !

[deadwood]
