Patch attached. TODO: change the interval to say 120 seconds. TODO: Add a preference for the autosave interval. (but 120 will do for now IMHO). TODO: The file currently lands in the CWD of hugin: /tmp . I think would prefer: current dir when hugin was started. Or user's homedir. TODO: Think about: should we keep the debug output: "autosaving.... done"?
TODO: Think if we should delete the file on normal exit? I vote: no. ** Attachment added: "Preliminary autosaving patch." https://bugs.launchpad.net/hugin/+bug/679917/+attachment/1749431/+files/patch_autosave -- Backup copy of project. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/679917 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Hugin Bug Hunters, which is subscribed to Hugin. Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI: Confirmed Bug description: Hugin just crashed on me. Pre 0.7.0 this happened so often that I knew I had to save often, or risk losing my work. So far this is the first since I went to 0.7.0. Now 0.8.0 crashed on me.... However I'm most pissed that a pto file got saved to run "nona", but this gets (I think) cleaned up after running nona. So now I'm left with a project file with hours of work missing. PLEASE write a backup pto file where I can find it, or mention "this project had unsaved changes when hugin crashed, load the backup file?" when I start it. (then I don't need to know where the backup is stored...). _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~hugin-bug-hunters Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~hugin-bug-hunters More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
