[Gnumed-devel] GNUmed Windows issues

Hi all,

Just had the pleasure to test GNUmed 1.1.10 on Windows 7.

Installation:
good: no problem at all
good: upgrade from v15 to v16 via Windows menu shortcut works flawlessly
good: it is fast
good: adding documents works flawlessly
good: it detects ginkgocadx when the path is set correctly
good: dob can be entered as -80J (for Jahre==years)
bad: does not yet detect previous versions (anyone ?)
bad: Windows conf file shows useless profiles (my bad)
bad: document archive plugin does not show documents (can't create dialog using memory template ???)
bad: it does not start ginkgocad (mostl likey a path quoting issue, log has been sent)
bad: in phrasewheel one still cannot select an option with Return-key but rather mouse based double click (major suckage)
bad: arriba is offered as a tool even though it is not installed. since they don't provide just a binary one has to frop it into a folder which is in PATH to make it start
bad: re medication: pressing Rx brings up a dialog to choose databases from. selecting FreeDiams is accepted. However since it is not installed it will not be started. installing it does not bring it up either. configuring the path to freediams from inside GNUmed (why is this not possible for e.g. Ginkgo-CADx or removed for Freediams for consistency ?) does not help either. restarting GNUmed actually seems to pick up the change but cannot start it (most likey a path quoting issue, log mailed)


Hope this helps to make GNUmed 1.2 an even better release.

Best regards,
Sebastian Hilbert

That's locale sensitive.

Huh ?

Only if you start with --debug.

Same old SetItemPyData() bug for which I do not
know the solution.

path quoting, should be fixed

I have no idea.

Suggestions ?

This is not yet supported. Put it in the PATH.

Because FreeDiams is called via an explicit driver while
Ginkgo CADx is not.

Put it in the PATH (even if just for running GNUmed).

Path quoting, should be fixed.

The Windows installer (I did not code the detection of an already installed version)

I forgot to remove the profile in question.

That is what I thought. Seems to work on some XP systems but not at all on Windows 7. If you know what triggers it could you please write a test case so I can potentially forward this upstream ?

I have yet to try.

Grey it out unless it is detected for a start.

Can we reflect the unsupported state (Windows only ?) somehow. It is confusing to have the option while it does not seem to do anything (I might have missed tooltips). Remove the configuration option from the GNUmed UI ?

No problem for/with Ginkgo-Cadx. Just confusing in case of FreeDiams.

Sure.

Will try this out.

If I knew I'd fix it (or work around it).

Just for the fun of it I will try wxpython 2.9.

Please report which of the above still exist based on the
latest GIT code.

It will be very hard for me to test this based on git code. If you could produce a release candidate this would help a lot.

This would work:

        git update
        cd gnumed/dists/Linux/
        ./make-release_tarball.sh
        cp gnumed-client.Git.tgz c:\the\samba\share\from\my\windows\machine\
