saving files : a bug ?


  • Subject: saving files : a bug ?

i have a tiny crossplatform (winXP - panther) project which is hosted from
an XP machine using ordinary smb sharing (no csv for me because I feel I'm
not experienced enough)

the project, called "B" for now, is located in C:\B on the XP machine.

mounting te C drive on my tiBook like this

smb://192.168.0.17/C

and then launching my B.pbproj all goes fine.

the project contains about 50 files right now. 15 of these are named
"cmd_.... .h", with one being ordinary "cmd.h", others for instance
"cmd_setgridsize.h" etc etc.

now the bug :

I can not edit & save cmd.h itself more than once. I can open it, edit it,
save it. If I edit again, and try to save, i get a 'file could not be saved'
error !


I'm not 100% sure, but i feel it might have something to do with XCode
saving "cmd.h" as a temp file "cmd~.h" first. tilde on a windows machine is
always funky (it might interfere with the other "cmd....h" files perhaps ?)
In combination with samba shares being even more funky with long filenames,
I think the problem is that XCode uses the tilde, which is some sord of
abbreviation character for samba. Cause if I edit & save those files with
TextEdit, all goes fine (textedit uses another mechanism for temp file
names)

before I submit a bugreport (after I figure out how to do so) : is there
perhaps something extremely stupid I'm overlooking ?

cheers,

jeroen
