nightly build....
« on: 22 June 2015, 19:50 »

http://mamedev.emulab.it/clrmamepro/binaries/cmp20150622.rar

fixed: possible crash with corrupt settings file
fixed: rare issue where a sample parent set with no samples for its own and multi-softwarelist support is marked as unneeded
fixed: possible crash on cmpro start on read-only device or full device
fixed: structural issues and possible crash when using dats with releases and run into double name issues
misc:  automatically detect mame and mess as xml root elements
misc:  supporting biossets with samples (and sampleof) elements

hope I can now concentrate on the "mame + software list chds with identical setnames issues"...

another week passed and no new cmpro yet?!
Well, yes...it's summer time....and hell it's hot out there at the moment...and you really don't like to do some coding if it's 37°C outside and in your room...

I worked on 2 main things recently...one is related to regions usage and double name warnings (which was more complex as expected) and the other is related to sets with chds in software lists which use the same name as in other software lists / bios / standard sets...e.g. area51 in MAME and in MAME's saturn software list....

I got 2 things on my list which I want to get resolved before a new version is out....but as a sneak preview you got at least the latest changelog...

the latest change log...

fixed: possible crash with corrupt settings file
fixed: rare issue where a sample parent set with no samples for its own and multi-softwarelist support is marked as unneeded
fixed: possible crash on cmpro start on read-only device or full device
fixed: structural issues and possible crash when using dats with releases and run into double name issues
fixed: double name check when using releases
fixed: some dialogs don't use "MS Sans Serif" as font...
fixed: adjusted some warning messages to use SOFT instead of LIST
fixed: setinformation "hide parent" does not work for listed disks
fixed: unpacked set with chds can be falsely detected as misplaced
fixed: rare typo based bug in checking unneeded sets/chds
misc:  better unneeded detection of chds within an identical setnames relation (softwarelists/Non-Software List)
added: automatically detect mame and mess as xml root elements
added: supporting biossets with samples (and sampleof) elements

As you know starting with .162 MAME + MESS became MAME....
...but there were some custom builders out there which build a pure MESS executable and tried to import them in cmpro as exe-type "MESS"....which does not work anymore since the root xml element is not named mess anymore. Even for a MESS-only build it's "mame".
You area able to modify cmpro's engine.cfg to handle this...but with this nightly build cmpro will detect it automatically....

According to some mamedevs arcade ,mess subtargets won't live long. Soon the will be mame or custom build with predefined drivers.
