Default Re: The SE4 companion - Why the long wait?.

I'll add the music list later, it seems like a 30 minutes job. (Hybris)
I'm still working on the PBW download, the automatic download works fine, but now I'll have to make a manual download option aswell.
This is much more complicated than I thought (And fun yes!!)
And then the deadline closing alert and the upload option. Finish the mail options and the documentation. And the music list.

The main distractions are:
-Summer and sun.
-Two kids.
-A work. (will work this weekend aswell )
-A wife that thinks I should clean the house and move the lawn and stuff like that....

Still, progress being made each day.
I hope that everything else than this download thing will be easier, I've felt for several days that I'm near completion, yet when I look at it it seems as far away still as it was a couple of days ago...

Perhaps because you keep adding new features..?

Could be....

Download finished, now I have no clue as to how to make the uploads.... and am tired...

Edit2: I've got the hint of a clue as to what to do, something to build with anyway and a hope!
Will do the music bit in between to rest my brain a bit

Now the music works, it can have 101 songs in a playlist for each game, if it's a favorite game it will remember the Last played song.
It plays both mp3 and mid.

Now to the uploads... that's worse...

But I'm still in the blind about uploading.
I'll need to find a way to do multipart/form-data post to uplaod the file through the application.
There are a few hints on the net but I haven't succeded yet, so if anyone has done that on a passowrd protected server before please give me a hint...

I could do a dirty Version where you get a filebrowser and choose the turnfile, but I'd prefer the hard way, a button click only.


Still, tomorrow is all work and no programming so I'll have time to think about this before I try again!

I feel so useless, coming up with new features for this program while being too lazy to work on my design analyzer program...

Then again, my job DOES involve programming all day so it's not something I really have much patience for when I get home...
