Known Issues, Bugs, and General To-Dos
Note: Currently the files linked on this page are not even done enough to be called a "release" of any sort. I've just set up this page because I wanted to give my friends a small sampler of what I've been working on lately.
- The iCalendar plugin claims that the source files don't have the same name even if they do if one or more of the calendars have no items
- Only the File Sync plugin takes advantage of the sync options beyond regular synchronization and master settings. Fortunately, the other settings wouldn't be that interesting for the other plugins were I to implement them and they just fall back to regular synchronization when a setting that they don't understand is enabled
- Once a plugin is added to a sync document there is no way to remove it and though you may disable it, disabling a plugin does not persist across saves.
- There is no way to reorder plugins once they are placed in a document (with the new "smart" ordering this is now a feature!)
- The archiving feature is not implemented at all. This means that DirectSync or you can seriously screw up your files and you have no way to recover.
- The toolbar correctly greys out buttons as they are supposed and not supposed to be available but the menu bar doesn't always do so.
- Neither the mbox plugin nor the iCalendar plugin currently check to make sure that the files they are to synchronize fall within the location bounds of the sync document. This is now a feature, too. Location bounds are now considered a convenience and not a requirement. Sort of.
- There is no way to schedule synchronizations to occur. There should be, but I haven't done it yet
- There is no way to autoconnect to remote servers when a synchronization document is opened that uses them. The current behaviour for DirectSync when files or locations referenced in a sync document cannot be located is undefined!
- The AppleScript plugin freezes when presented with scripts that draw windows
- With the exception of the file sync plugin, none of the plugins respect the new compositing options. I will work those in as soon as I figure out how to do so.
- Some sporadic crashes
- I'm sure that there are about a million other issues that I'm not thinking of right now. I'll add them as I think of them.
