Check the Tailbite installer source to see how it's done there.lexvictory wrote:Can the preferences file location be explained?
i know its in app data, but is there a way to make it use a local one (for using more than one pb/tailbite version for example)?
TailBite V1.3 for PB4.0X+PB4.10+PB4.20
Moderators: gnozal, ABBKlaus, lexvictory
The installer looks up the location of the prefs file to install the Tailbite tool. I don't remember which file that part of the source it's in. It could be Preferences.pb.ABBKlaus wrote:No it´s not the installer, see in Preferences.PB how it´s doneMistrel wrote:Check the Tailbite installer source to see how it's done there.

ok, i still dont really get the subsystems problem...
because when i compile in ascii mode, the lib gets created properly
however, when i check for example unicode, tailbite deletes/moves the lib from the normal userlibraries directory, but compilation fails probably because pb finds the lib in the subsystem folder... then the normal userlibrary isnt replaced when it fails
should tailbite be deleting the lib file just from the subsystems folder? maybe both?
or am i just totally misunderstanding the subsystems options in tailbite manager?

this is probably a stupid question, but how do i get tailbite to make a unicode and/or threadsafe lib from the command line?
ive been trying and it doesnt seem to be working..
or is it not enough to just call tailbite from cmd.exe in the tailbite dir?

Tailbite takes a considerable amount of time to compile the libraries I'm building with my current project. When recompiling all 24 libraries, each of them either several hundred or several thousand lines, it takes a while.
I noticed that Tailbite does not compile more than one at a time even if I pass two files to Tailbite.exe to process in parallel.
It would be a great enhancement if Tailbite would consider the number of cores available and allow that many instances to run at once. On my dual-core cpu it might cut my compile time almost in half.

But a TailBite thread could stop when another one is just finishing its work and copying back its saved userlibrary./MULT - allows to run more than one instance of TailBite
This could lead into weird error messages And some libs have dependencies to other userlibs like PurePDF / PDFMisc / PDFDraw / PDFBarcode ...
The version 1.868 that i have just finished will have some batch-functions, i think this will be a better idea than to thread TailBite.

They where removed because they won´t work in all PureBasic Versions and i cannot guarantee that they work in future versions of PB.Mistrel wrote:Tailbite is also missing the TB helper library for creating gadgets, the TB_GadgetExtension.res file, and the example described in the Tailbite documentation.
