Added in a binary VDF reader to find and figure out all
of the Game Icons, Exe locations, Names, Ids and
Install Dirs all from the local file syste,m. It makes the
shortcuts populate within 1 second, rather than the
60 seconds it was taking beforehand. Users should
love the newfound responsiveness.
Renamed app to HeliosPlus namespace so that the updated
changes don't interfere with HeliosDisplayManagement if
that is also installed. The fact that I've changed so much of
the app means that my changes would be unlikely to be
accepted by Soroush, so I'm best to release this work in a
similar way to other projects like Notepad++, by keeping
the same root name, and adding a plus.
I've also changed the Shortcut form to put all the games
in a single list to reduce the number of clicks a user has to
do in order for them to create a shortcut. I have begun to
prepare the form so that it will support multiple game
libraries, but now I am at a point that I need to fix the Steam
and Uplay game detection mechanisms so that they report
the correct information for the lv_games list view.
The programme compiles with the commandline changes
and the changes to the shortcut form, including aligning
the shortcut generation with the new command line.
The Uplay skeleton has been disabled for now as I'm
concentrating on getting the commandline args working
and fixing the annoying errors in the way the MainForm
and the ShortcutForm work. Probably have a couple more
days work to fix that.
Changed to use natemcmaster's CommandLineUtils library to provide
flexbility for command structure, and enable the use of custom
validators which allow us to make sure that the command line options
provided are accurate. This removes the need for all the individual
exceptions being thrown across the main application.
Also started the modification of the CreateShortcut Form to make
it easier to use and more self explanatory.
And finally started the integration of Uplay into the application so
that users can use Uplay as well as Steam to select their games.
