[Flightgear-devel] Dashes in filenames
A friend of mine (the best I have) brought this to my attention: The current Windows binary of FlightGear as present in the 0.9.8a download package refuses to load aircraft with a dash in the filename. This _might_ be an issue in general but I don't know if it acually is. It is _definitely_ an issue with the A-10 in the reduced base package of the 0.9.8a installer - as I was able to verify. After renaming the A-10cl-set.xml file to A10cl-set.xml I was able to load the aircraft without any trouble. Which one should be the guideline on how to deal with this issue: Should modelers avoid using dashes in filenames except the one in -set.xml of should the Windws binary get enabled to handle these names ?

Could you elaborate ? What are the symptoms and what is the log at a verbose log level ? Is it ok in fgrun ? I don't see that problem on my development version and I don't remember seeing a change in this area of the code recently. -Fred ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

I was under the impression that if the directory name is A-10 then there must be a file in it named A-10-set.xml. Is this wrong?

It used to be that way, it's not necessary anymore for recent version of FlightGear (I think 0.9.0 and later).
