 | | Augh! How to make sure parts-stuff is current?
|
|
Hey, y'all: I'm working on adding a feature to LDAO which verifies that parts.lst and the VEC directory are up-to-date. I started to write this post asking if it was worth the effort, but now I'm wondering what steps are even necessary. I think it (...) (26 years ago, 26-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I really doubt people choose a "~Moved to xxx.dat" part when browsing in LEdit! Why should they? It doesn't have a description, so how would you know what part it is? If people are using "~Moved to" parts, it must be because they thought they (...) (26 years ago, 26-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I double-checked this, and what Terry says is true for LDAO. Which is good. The bad news is that LDAO simply replaces the old part number with the new part number. It should be doing an inline operation. Steve (26 years ago, 26-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Oo. That one gets a big "I don't remember" from me. I am in the middle of re-writing the way LDAO checks & maintains parts.lst & the VEC, so I could easily add some extra code for a moved-to list. Steve (26 years ago, 24-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Welp, it feels nice to move around in, but it SURE feels disjointed from the rest of the CAD stuff, which makes it no fun at all in the final analysis.
