[Fixed] Improvements for PokerTH Portable

Submitted by Bart.S on October 14, 2010 - 6:01am

Due to lines 211-212 of PokerTHPortable.nsi (PokerTH Portable 0.8.1), the lines 219-282 are redundant and could be deleted (maybe more). If you don't think so, then there is a bug, because Avatar 7-9 won't be adjusted. Blum

Automatic language switching doesn't work for czech. Either blame the PokerTH devs for using cz as locale code or add a few extra lines to the launcher (like CheckForPortuguese).

The runtime switch "XPStyle on" is missing, don't know if necessary.

On upgrade not all *.dll files from previous version(s) will be removed.

"Undefined reference" error - need a pointer or two

I'm trying to finish the last of my work with Portable Passwords, and the code is all compiling nicely, but the darn thing keeps failing on the linking stage with the error "Undefined reference to 'SQLite::SQLite(wchar_t const*, int, wchar_t const*)'". I did some research and found that "Undefined reference" usually means the referenced library hasn't been linked, so I compiled the SQLite code as a static library and linked the resulting libSQLite.a file in Portable Passwords. I also included the directory the SQLite library is in as a linker search path, but still no joy.

Portable App Creation Step by Step [Request]

Submitted by Y3K on October 11, 2010 - 9:59pm

Hello everybody, I'm Y3K, a new member of this awesome community!

The reason of this message (and my signup) in this site is a special request (yes, I know it sounds... "Weird", but I do really think it's necessary).

I'm pretty new in the "PortableApps" world, I mean, not the new using them but I'm with the "PortableApps.com" method, and I'm really satisfied with it!

I always asked myself why no one could make a Portable App with everything in order and where it should go! Without leave ANY "path" behind its use, and finally you guys do it, and thanks for that.

TeamViewer 5.1.9290 -- suggested changes

Submitted by Moonbase on October 11, 2010 - 3:55am

TeamViewer v5.1.9290 is out since 2010-10-06.

May I again suggest some improvements to whoever currently develops the offical PA.c version?

My suggested changes for TeamViewer v5.1.91.92 still apply, plus the files

X:\PortableApps\TeamViewerPortable\App\teamviewer\Connections_incoming.txt
X:\PortableApps\TeamViewerPortable\App\teamviewer\Connections_outgoing.txt

need to be moved between "Data" and "App\teamviewer" folders upon program start and end, respectively. (Only if they exist, of course.)

Help me!

GPL Redistribution Clarification

Submitted by KongMD on October 8, 2010 - 10:47pm

Hi, all Smile I've made a portable app using the Launcher, and it's licensed under the GPL or LGPL. The exact wording is:

"It is free software (free of charge and free access to source code: GPL or LGPL licence)"

My main goal is to refine the application and make sure it's not fatally flawed, with the help of my fellow developers here, before telling the original application's developer about it. This is to avoid showing him an unfinished/bugged program and having him decide he doesn't want any redistribution.

Thunderbird 3.1.4 - Acrobat Attachment

Submitted by heyix01 on October 6, 2010 - 8:22am

Just a small hint to the development-team of Thunderbird portable - related to the functionality of Adobe Acrobat Pro:

Acro Pro offers a quickly way to sent the current opened PDF's via email. Therefore you just have to select file/sent as email and then Acro opens the current Mail-Client and attaches the PDF automatically - very practicable and very, very quick!!!

But it does not work with the portable editions :-(((
