Sounds like great new to me. :)
And thanks to those that helped make it happen.

I hope more devs in all camps do the same, as i think it will benefit the community as a whole.

Thanks to Thore we fix nasty bug in the program (bug also happens to be on mos and os3)

Funny, I just downloaded the source for MINAD the other day for port-try-out and especially as an example source (trying to play with MUI...) - good, that I haven't tried it, I would have never found that error!

At this time no icons need it, as there is original ones, you can see them on screens.

Bug is pretty heavy one. I for first was sure that its my fault somethere, but once i recheck that morphos version have the same bug, i start to worry/ask thore/etc/etc. And strangely, such small difference (usage of NFloat_text for printstring, in compare with Float_text string), give such strange behaviours: unmakable text areas, mess of memory after iconify. Pretty possible some users even not see it, because in MinAD for showing the content of the autodoc and autodoc decription are handled by different funcs, and only that one which show the main info of autodoc was ####ed. After Thore explain everything, its all sounds easy and logical, but when you do not know what it can be, and look at the sources done not by you, it can looks like hard one :)

Is AmigaMark port done ?

MinAD seems very nice !

Yep, but it crashes in few cpu tests for me : fpu query [double precision], in the al Aburto routine (i think its timer related, but need to check more), and in md5 append test.

Other ones (all memory tests, all other cpu tests and all hdd tests) works fine. Through something wrong with dos.library tests (they very slow, need to check how it on morphos).

If you (and other) in interest, i can build version where i disable crashed parts, and so you all can test if it worth to make it bug free or not.

Sure i'm interested, even because we don't have (yet) any native and modular benchmark apps like that, so it will be very usefull for actual and future stressing test

If you release it then we can test it, help you tracking bugs and so on ...

BTW i noted a small but strange thing on your latest releases, the about requester window on the MinAD port (but also into the others about windows) does not showed any image logo .. conversely i can see them on the grabs you posted above .. did you remove them intentionally or we have missed somethings ?

Not a huge issue of course, at the end it's only graphics.. just a curiosity

Pretty strange, as its get images from the .info files. And if you unpack it and run from directory where you unpack it (with all the infos), then images should be shown. Icons also in native format, so there should't be any problems with any 3d party install like png-moduls. I will recheck of course

Yep just downloaded the 68k exe (MinAD), extracted in RAM and launched .. the image in about window is correctly showed, but the same procedure using your native port does not show any image ..

Thanks for AmigaMARK

Tested right now with mui from update4: just download native minad.lha, extract to ram, run, go to "about" and image is here. I even tryed mui from update2 : it works as well, just image in the about non-transparently.

Maybe you didn't have dtpic class installed in your mui by some reassons (or it was deleted), or you extract files somehow that they not-extract .info (or add some fancy bit), or maybe something with deficons ? Will be good if other ones can test it as well.

For os3 it works, because different method of display is used.

There is.

@all
Anyone else who didn't see images in "About" ? Or anyone who see them actually ?

Hello kas1e,

If you have planned to port Pulldog, I can test here

Just contact me..

hello kas1e!

Thanks for that ports, nice work. That was exactly the intention when i realeased my stuff as GPL, the hope it will be usefull for all platforms.

And great you find that bug in MinAD, didn't noticed this floattext-problem :)
Where can i dl the source of the ports so i can integrate it in my codebase for future updates?

"...but as i didnt get any answer from Rupert..."
You tried to hit me on natmeg@gmx.net? i got no mail. maybe it was detected as spam, i'll check that...


@Mrodfr : Pulldog is broken (at least on os3) and was not updated/released with the other apps.
The version on aminet is old and also broken. Maybe i do a new realease on this also, but that will take some time...


About the logo-problem:
You need dtpic.mcc and, a 43v-compatible picture.datatype and a png-datatype with alpha-support installed.

@kas1e

No image in MinAD about window. dtpic.mui is from 26.11.11. dtpic.mcc is indeed missing for some reason.

If only more developers like you will understand that we all need unity, and at least on 3dparty level be cooperative, then we will have no wars at all :) Thanks one more time for opening the sources.

As for contacts: i got now answers from you in mail, will write you back now.

@Thematic

Yeah, thats ok. .mcc and .mui mostly "the same", just .mcc its kind of external mui classes, and .mui kind of internal. So its enough to have .mui only (like we have for string, title and 70% of all the other classes).

Btw, i also make a snoopy_output log, so you can check what exactly opens. Just move till the last 100 strings, and check what opens. That will give you idea what to check (if you of course in interst to found reasson why it didn't shows).

@Thematic and samo79

I do some tests, and found, that i not have images in about box only in one way: if i delete classes/datatypes/info.datatype. Which are 8008 bytes of size for me. Check plz if you have that.

Regarding the image/logo problem:

- Did you change the PNG icon from MorphOS to a OS4 GlowIcon?
- Do you - by chance - have the icon.datatype active?

Snoopy: "01845 : ramlib : o.k. = Lock("CLASSES:datatypes/info.datatype",SHARED) [19962uS]"

It may interfere with the png.datatype...

Oh. You said the image is an icon and he said datatypes are used. So a very simple solution now that it is visible. I have no icon datatype as I have had trouble in the past from some datatypes, so I try to keep the active part of the collection moderate.

Yeah, i convert them to os4 native. But just to be sure you can check them.

For you it as well didn't show the image in "about" of let's say, miniad ?

Quote:

I do search in whole system: partition, and i do not have "icon.datatype" here at all. But i think by icon.datatype you mean "info.datatype", i.e. that one , which salas00 port in 2008 ? Through i was sure its already included in os4 by default.

Quote:

I have png.datatype installed as well, but icons are not png ones, but os4 native. Even if i remove png.datatype from system at all, i still have images in "about" of miniad. Currently, all what i found, is that i do not have them in "about" only when i remove info.datatype (which are that "icon" datatype) or picture.datatype. System up2date with update4 (just in case)

@Thematic

But i also do not have "icon.datatype" as well (at least i do not have a file with that name on system and on work partitions), i think you also mean "info.datatype" , which are datatye for icons, just different name.

For testing purposes all what i do now, its just leave in the the system:classes/datatype only 2 datatype: picture.datatype and info.datatype. Then hard reboot, then unpack miniad.lha , run it , and i have image in about.

Quote:

Did i understand right, that after you install icon "info.datatype" and all is fine, but by default on update4 you didn't have info.datatype at all ?
