Re: [platform-core-dev] Re: AutoRefresh attempt #2

(See attached file: com.example.autorefresh.win32_2.0.0_20021007.zip)

Here is the proposed fix (pretty simple... wish I had know this earlier).

I have made my own copy of Convert, so for the time being the integration
problem should not be an issue.

So far I have only recieved one bug report.  It happens to be quite
serious, so either nobody is using this, or nobody is logging bugs.
Neither of which make me very happy :).  Please report bugs against core,
but assign me as the owner (so we don't bug DJ).  Thanks!

Jed, if you can reproduce and fix this, can you submit a patch for
Convert.toPlatformBytes()?

Rolf, we have another problem in this area, and if you happen to know the
answer it would be great.  This method currently fails on certain NL
platforms (GB18030 code page, and English Win2k where a DBCS locale is
selected).  I think the problem is that we're not using the correct
String->byte encoding.  We try to auto-detect the default platform encoding
(feels like a hack), but that doesn't seem to work in these NL cases.  If
you happen to have any insight I'd be forever in your debt (or at least owe
you a beer)!!

Rolf,

Is it that simple?  Wow.  I see if I can duplicate your fix.

Jed,

I think the major problem with the Win32Monitor with "all sorts of
filenames" is the Convert.toPlatformBytes function. It should append a zero
character to the byte array returned, which is needed for the Win32-APIs to
know when the string (i.e. pathname) ends.

After changing this on my machine (Windows XP) I also removed rejecting
path names containing spaces in Win32Monitor.addPath.

Now the native support for Windows seems to be ok. To see file system
modifications instantly in the workspace is so cool. Thank you for your
efforts supporting auto-refresh.

Ciao,
        Rolf
