clrmame Discussion / Re: What is the CLRMamepro Regex syntax?

« on: 18 June 2017, 15:32 »

Rebuilder -> Rebuilder Advanced -> Dest Prestring -> %m\

as an example to rebuild files to <your rebuilder destination>\ <the set's manufacturer>\ <the actual set> (folder or archive)

Well, yes, it's more a limited fnmatch than a full regual expression parser....and mixed up with variable usage...
hmm...a combined positive and negative list...tricky...tricky...have to think about it....(or add some support for != instead of = ;-)). For now you might limit the list first with the nintendo query and then manually by disabling the playchoice bios set for example.....

clrmame Discussion / Re: How can I rebuild without removing from the source dir?

« on: 17 June 2017, 14:12 »

well, the defaul rebuilder option *is* to not remove any source files. There is an extra option for it to turn removal of rebuilt source files on.
The rebuilder takes files from the given source folder (or drag'n drop, or addpaths) and adds hash matched files to the destination (or system default paths).

clrmame Discussion / Latest Nightly Build

« on: 07 June 2017, 19:27 »

https://mamedev.emulab.it/clrmamepro/binaries/cmpro20170725.rar

fixed: wrong "missing but fixable" message (mainly chd) when set check is disabled which covers the actual message
fixed: dir2dat archives with folders produce wrong output
fixed: stats count of missing roms for clone sets which only consist of parent roms (and chds)
fixed: stats count of missing chds in case set check is disabled
misc:  use MoveFile instead of CopyFile also for disabled remove-rebuilt-source when possible
misc:  drag'n drop operations now work when you use "run as admininistrator" to run cmpro in an UAC protected folder
misc:  changed softwarelist import to always import all and filter specific afterwards. Solves problem where MAME does not print out data for some.
misc:  remove possible empty setfolder when a chdfile is moved

« on: 07 June 2017, 19:26 »

you might want to give this a try....as mentioned, now Move is also used when you don't have 'remove rebuilt source' enabled...
If you had it enabled before...well...tough luck then...then it simply doesn't really give a speedboost

clrmame Discussion / Re: A question about the Temp folder

« on: 07 June 2017, 18:45 »

ok...the current procedure is the following:

If you got an unpacked file AND its hash will only match one (1) file AND you got "remove rebuilt source files" enabled, then it will be moved, otherwise the file gets copied.

I check if I this can be enhanced to If you got an unpacked file AND its hash will only match one (1) AND (you got "remove rebuilt source files" OR the file is a temporary unpacked source file)

Hmm...good question...have to look at the source...

must be decades ago when I used the rebuilder to actually recompress files...I only use the no-recompress mode ;-)

I will check it

As I said, I will double check the listed number of roms even though the only point of truth is the tree output and not the stats screen.
If you don't want to fool cmpro you will always get the missing set output in tree and in stats since you don't have the chd/set.....so you won't get a green profile knob (which a lot of users look at ;-))

"I think there are many MAMEers are just like me" ...actually I don't think so. MAMEers usually collect them all...or use a non-chd datfile

A set is a collection of chds and/or roms and/or samples. There are some sets which only consist of e.g a chd file.
If you don't have the chd files for chd-only sets, you *do* miss the set and so it is listed. Fooling cmpro's set check (not the chd-check by the way) by creating empty container folders for the chd is only a workaround for people who don't care about chds and want a clean report.
The statistic numbers don't really matter that much anyway. The only important thing is if something is listed in the tree or not.
However I will double check the number of roms in the stats for this special case...but really...they don't matter ;-)

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.032 released

« on: 16 May 2017, 20:19 »

4.032
fixed: dir2dat creates subfolders for found filenames with `. Now it translates it to ' (as the parser does anyway)
fixed: unique softwarelist folder check can fail and only show an empty list instead of details
fixed: batcher's "for rompath naming use "dafilefolder" created double foldernames when using dats with subfolders
fixed: batcher's "for rompath naming use "datfile name tag" or "datfile file" was not working
fixed: batcher's "for default naming use" options does not use the global profiler setting anymore
fixed: don't list existing parent roms in completely missing clones' output
fixed: profiler hides empty folders
fixed: wrong bios set assignment in non rom-merge-parse-mode for some sets which use merge tags to link to bios roms
fixed: profiler context menu tree delete folder switched to 'delete profile' when a profile in list view was selected
fixed: problem with memoryfile exceptions when working with enabled headers
added: batcher option to skip scan run when a batch rebuild did not create any files
misc:  updated fuzzy set name check routine (which is rarely used though) giving more robust results
misc:  better profiler tree display when delete/reset/clean cache on a folder or move profile (not jumping to root and collapsing the tree)
misc:  show red/green dot profiler tree folder icons when profiles contain at least one red or only green items
misc:  updated to zip archive: 4.6.4

...and I changed the double use of general profiler options for default naming and batcher's corresponding one...so batcher overwrites the global ones but only in the current batch run....does this resolve your fastscan/log file problem?

hmm...yeah...very strange....just looking into this...it does append the other folders, too....I can see this during debugging......I currently wonder why they do not appear.....

update....ah there it is ;-)

Well, the new behaviour is to show empty folders. Period.
Folders only get hidden if they do contain profiles and you use the "hide red|green|grey profiles" option and the folder fully consists of such hidden profiles

no time yet for the logfile/fastscan and 1st rompath thing but that empty folder issue made we wonder...actually it was never a feature that empty folders are hidden...

so...better update:

https://mamedev.emulab.it/clrmamepro/binaries/cmpro20170503.rar

Thanks for your interest by the way

...and by the way, I've just added an option to skip batch scan run when a previous batch rebuild run did not create any files....(that features is not included in cmpro20170503.rar....but in the next it will be)
