Changed the build versioning to use an incrementing build version per build (and revision version per release build) as per https://stackoverflow.com/questions/826777/how-to-have-an-auto-incrementing-version-number-visual-studio. This uses an AssemblyInfo.tt T4 template to customise the versioning so that the application version can be set using the AssemblyVersion variable within the Visual Studio application properties. This makes it dead easy to change!
The Wix Program.wxs was also changed to use that new 4 digit version number as the versioning, which should help immensely with beta testing updates. No more asking people to uninstall the previous version as the new build will automatically upgrade the earlier version!
Decided that the DisplayProfile changes would
have to be breaking changes if I was going to
add HDR support, and be able to handle adding
future video cards from different manufacturers.
This all requires a change to the DisplayProfile
format. So now this is going to use a file called
DisplayProfiles_2.0.json rather than a file called
DisplayProfiles_1.0.json. This is because the
profiles will need to be generated again from
scratch, as they will all be completely different
to the format in DisplayProfiles_1.0.json.
Changed the process stopping logic
to make it more relable, and also make it
much more likely to actually stop the
programs even if they do things like
launch other programs and stop themselves
Added more helpful instructions
Added a link to the Example Start Programs
settings on the wiki by clicking on a button
in the ShortcutForm itself.
Added helpful MessageBox telling people
they need to select a Game Shortcut in order
to run, edit, delete or save it. Also included
text about the mouse right-click menu.
Clarified text on the StartProgramControl.
Both Steam and Uplay library logic would error
when the library was installed, but didn't have
any installed games. Thanks to @joeymanson23
for the report. Fixes#4.
Adds a LOT more logging to the Steam and Uplay
libraries to allow for remote troubleshooting via
the log file, especially if the logging settings are
set to TRACE.
Also fixed the long standing issue for being able
to install two copies of DisplayMagician of the
same version. Now the installer will prevent that
from happening!
Have customised the WiX installer so that
it has some nice backgrounds, and so that
the title and description text is white on
black rather than black on grey. It works
well.
Installer works, but there are a few issues with it.
- It doesn't register the DesktopBackground COM server
- It doesn't create a start menu shortcut with the AUMID
- It doesn't check for .Net Framework 4.8 or later
- It doesn't try to install .Net Framework 4.8 or later if not there
- It doesn't have any customised backgrounds...
- It doesn't ask to run DisplayMagician when install is finished
