6E72: Games don't launch in the IDE, releases don't show up in the Release folder
Erik Temple
doesn't seem to be working properly:
1) after hitting the Go button, the game compiles but fails to launch
in the IDE
2) after hitting the Release button, nothing is written to the Release
folder
In both cases, there are no errors (the compiler finishes with code
0), and the IDE continues to run normally.
[Oddly, though the application identifies itself as 6E72, the creation
date and modification date read June 20th.]
Has anyone else run into this? Or is it working for everyone but me?
Thanks,
Erik

It's working for me (10.5.8, Intel).

I think the build went golden-master on the 20th, and it's been
testing since then. (The previous build has a timestamp of May 3rd,
but didn't come out until mid-June.)

I'm seeing both bugs on 10.4. Try a few more times, or with a new
project instead of an existing one, maybe?
These are now filed in Mantis as #153 and #154.

I think the date is just incorrect - Graham has been resolving bugs
this week.

Good to hear--it must be specific to this machine (which, since it's
not my home machine, doesn't bother me too much).

Ah, thanks, and I see what confused me--I knew that bug 0000074 was
fixed in this release and did a quick check on Mantis, where I saw a
date of 6/30 for the resolution of the bug. But going back and
drilling into the change history for that report, I see that it was
actually fixed on the 19th; on the 30th, the record was merely updated
to reflect that the issue was fixed in the new build.
Thanks!

Yes, hm. When I created a new project, it failed to run. When I quit
Inform and started it again, and then chose the "Reopen last project"
option, it worked normally.

Thanks.

I've done that, restarted the machine, trashed the preferences etc.
The issue seems to be persistent with this machine (unlike the
intermittence that Zarf reports).

Great, thanks.

Hm, OK, thanks.

I get this behavior on my main home machine, a PPC 10.4. Release,
Release Debug Build, Test Me, double-clicking a Skein node, Replay
Last Commands, Replay Blessed Transcript, Rebuild Index... nothing
works. It compiles successfully upon selecting any of those, but
nothing happens afterward. I'm left staring at the graphic with
Translation Successful. It does this on new projects, old projects,
from the splash screen buttons or from the File menu, always and
everywhere. I cannot use this build.
I just downloaded it a few minutes ago, FWIW.

I even tried switching VMs between Git and Glulxe, to no effect.
I should add that I can't test the case of double-clicking a project
file to open Inform, because doing this opens 6E59 instead.

source text, but not another. I tried running Inform from the shell
(rather than the Finder), and the Terminal logged this error upon a
compile:
2010-07-07 09:51:33.500 Inform[52504:10b] Exception raised during
posting of notification. Ignored. exception: '-[NSFileWrapper
addFileWrapper:] *** a document must have a preferredFilename before
it can be added as the subdocument of another document.' invoked
observer method: '*** -[IFProjectController compilerFinished:]'
observer: 0x10ddf2c0 notification name:
'IFCompilerFinishedNotification'
I've added this to Mantis, but thought I'd raise it here as well.
