Wraith Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 Yes, the topic is me swearing.Bad news. One of my hard drives died, and it happened to be the one that XPlode3 was stored on.The last backup I made of my whole source tree was back when I had a half-baked XPlode2.... so I get to do it ALLLLLL again.Hopefully I will have something usable within a week, but not promises.*mightily p***ed off*
MCT Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 that sucks, sorry 2 hear that but take your time
Wraith Posted December 20, 2004 Author Posted December 20, 2004 Just a note... XPlode will now be using a more conformant XML parser... and it TELLS you what you get wrong.Example: <test>This is a long **** test of something & something.</test>Error:Ill-formed entity reference in text section (Rule 68).From XML Spec:http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/#sec-references[68] EntityRef ::= '&' Name ';' [WFC: Entity Declared] [VC: Entity Declared] [WFC: Parsed Entity] [WFC: No Recursion]I assume that nobody gets it.... but you can figure out what it means from the spec.i.e. The error was the & should be & as per normal.Yes it's been a long day, so this post may not be understandable...
Alanoll Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 man, I'm really sorry. I know what it's like. Had my harddrive fail on me with all my Winamp MSI stuff on it...sure hope this doesn't hinder my little project....
Cybermurder Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 i´m sorry, too. hard drives crashs often on coding projects...
RyanVM Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 RAID1 is your friend. Otherwise, a program like SecondCopy can be a life saver. I personally have my MSFN stuff saved to two different hard drives on my system.
