Thread: XRDB5 Alpha Pre-Release

    XRDB5 Alpha Pre-Release

    For those who are using my XRDB4 tool, you'll know that it's currently broken with the recent patch due to the extra RDB file (.002)

    Unfortunately, I have very little free time these days and as such, cannot write program code as often as I'd like to.

    After many attempts to try and fix the badly written old VB.net 2.0 code, I decided to make an upgrade tool in C# 4.0 instead.

    it's not finished yet, but it does extract the data from the RDB to the same datafile that XRDB4 uses.

    This means, you extract the data with 5 and parse the data with 4.
    until I can finish this tool, this is the best I can do for now.

    NB: You might have to rename the output datafile to match the name convention with your other datafiles or XRDB4 might not find the extracted data.
    this is the only 'bug' I've found so far.

    Thank you for this.
    Now I just have to find the problem that's preventing the output to be opened in aodboffline, since it hangs when opening the XML again. - DrUrbans' tool does the fixing on it's own now (info).

    I'm getting:

    Code:
    ************** Exception Text **************
    System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
       at XRDB5.Managers.ExtractionManager.bgw_RunWorkerCompleted(Object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)
       at System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker.OnRunWorkerCompleted(RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)
       at System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker.AsyncOperationCompleted(Object arg)
    When I hit the extract button?

    I had the same issue Darkbane, you just have to click the XML plugin name, on the settings tab, since it's not selected by default.

    Damn... wanted to update aomainframe again however i lost the source of my resource tool or updated version of jaydes.

    I know that suicidal had the last running version of the tool (he removed ctree stuff) but his version isnt working any more. (gives no output at all but no error)
    no idea how to contact suicidal as my aodevs account isnt there any more and registration is down ^^
