v.12 - Bug Fix & Feature Add
(2004-04-04)
----
I think I've finally gotten the European date bug successfully squashed,
thanks in special part to the great help I've gotten from K'vera. Thank
you! I was also able to set my machine to UK date/time format, and it
worked. Please let me know if you encounter further problems.
Bug Fixes:
* European date/time fix.
Feature Additions:
* You can now double-click on any item in the 'metrics' view and get a
pop-up with more information.
* You can now run The Merchant's Friend on a computer that does not have
SWG on it and point directly to the SWG directory.
Sorry for the delay in this update, I've been too busy to code! :)v.11 - Bug Fix (2004-03-24)
----
With this version, I fixed a few major crashing bugs. I'll put out a
features version soon.
* Fixed crash bug when someone received an e-mail with a subject similar
to a vendor e-mail.
* Fixed crash bug that involved European date/time strings (I hope).
* Fixed inappropriately labeled columns in 'My Purchases'.
* Fixed a glitch in 'My Purchases' causing the sort to put the price in
the location column.
With the European date/time bug, I can't be 100% sure that I fixed it. The
program now reads in your system settings as far as locale, and parses the
date out into a fixed format.
This /should/ resolve most of the problems that European users have
experienced with date/time settings. Please let me know if it does not, as
I can't test it very thoroughly!
v.10 - New Version
-----
With this version, The Merchant's Buddy has been renamed to The Merchant's
Friend. It's also been completely re-written:
* Added many more metrics.
* Added customer rating.
* Made adding partners easier.
* With some wonderful help, managed to parse the date correctly.
* Added a double-click option to the customers metrics view that displays
all products the customer purchased.
* Added configuration files for loading, saving live directory and using
archives.
* Added the ability to archive e-mails by year.
* Added the ability to filter data.
* Fixed column sorting to sort numbers and dates properly.
* Added proper help files.
Some things to note:
* The ability to load data from text or csv files has been removed from
the program. In light of the way the program has changed, it doesn't seem
to be necessary anymore (you can just load off of archives). It also opens
the door to some future upgrades to the program that will include the
ability to save off certain data to your in-game notepad for reference.
* I didn't get to as many of the export options as I wanted to, partly
because I'm still largely learning how C# works. Therefore, the only two
save options are to text files (tab delimited) and CSV files (comma
delimited). Comma delimited files are openable by Excel. Future versions
will have more exporting abilities.
* Filtering is fairly primitive, and doesn't do all that I want it to just
yet. Future versions will have the ability to do regex filtering, and
date-range filtering.
* Considering this version of the program has many, many more lines of
code and is much more complex, I expect that there will be a sum of issues
reported that I haven't yet caught. If you catch an issue, please fire off
an e-mail with a screens-hot of the error and, if possible, the mails that
cuased the error to illiya_darklight@yahoo.com, and I'll check into fixing
the bug.
v.02 - Beta Bug Fix
-----
* Fixed error-checking for a few instances that would cause exceptions.
* Fixed .CSV files. Previously, they wouldn't open properly in Excel. Now
they will.
* Placed into a proper installer. |
