| Hi, | Hi, | ||
| So around August time of 2011, I was working with the code of RomVault 1.7 and was starting to get frustrated with the direction it was heading. The biggest problem was that the core data structured used internally by RV1.7 was based around trying to look like the list of DAT that it scanned in from DATRoot. This sounds correct but I was running into problems like this: where do I store the information about any files I find in a directory that is not in one of the DAT directories. The scanning code was starting to do more and more fixing, so that it could complete a scan, like copying unknown directories and files over to ToSort. Also as I am sure all you RV1.7 users know, there was no clean way in the data structure to store the status of the Tree of DATs as displayed in the UI, so it kept on resetting itself, as it was not really a tree structure at all, just a list of DATs displayed as a tree. This was all heading in the wrong direction fast. | So around August time of 2011, I was working with the code of RomVault 1.7 and was starting to get frustrated with the direction it was heading.

| Just to let you all know, I have not disappeared completely, I am working hard on adding Non-Zipped directory support, this turned out to be a bigger deal than I had at first imagined, but it is all good I have really been working on separating out the file handling from the ROM Database Sorting Code, so that the Sorting Codes does not have to know the difference between a ZIP and a Directory. It is developing into an interesting exercise in writing the ROM Sorting Class, and a File/Zip Handling Class, and really separating these 2 classes correctly. Along the way I have found and fixed a couple of bug, and probably will introduce a couple more before this is all done. So more work to be done, but it should be a nice update when it is all done. | Just to let you all know, I have not disappeared completely, I am working hard on adding Non-Zipped directory support, this turned out to be a bigger deal than I had at first imagined, but it is all good I have really been working on separating out the file handling from the ROM Database Sorting Code, so that the Sorting Codes does not have to know the difference between a ZIP and a Directory.

| Two new features have been added to V1.4, First RomVault now supports the MESS XML Dat lists. And then secondly I now permit more than one DAT file to exists in the same DATRoot sub-directory, | Two new features have been added to V1.4, First RomVault now supports the MESS XML Dat lists.

| Because of the changes to support the different dats the Cache store has changed so if you are upgrading you will have to fully rescan your DAT's and ROM's. | Because of the changes to support the different dats the Cache store has changed so if you are upgrading you will have to fully rescan your DAT's and ROM's. | ||
