Daniel, I was able to get the left sidebar to scroll as far as the directive error. Dave

Egbert, It sort-of works with my ancient iPad2: Dave H

Dave S, I'd agree, unless you are also proficient in that specific language. I'd say it's appropriate to delete all. If the meaning has changed, I'd say yes, unless you are also proficient in that spe

Konrad & Andrew, Dave

Konrad, The easiest way to validate the XML file is to run an ant decoderpro target and add "Validate XML File" as a button on the main window. Reboot and use that. If the whole-file validation fails,

Konrad, If you've placed your new definition file(s) within your local repository checkout (being accessed by NetBeans), use the ant remakedecoderindex target. But if you have a decoderIndex.xml file

Konrad, I'm currently using NetBeans 11.3 on Mac. Build.xml previously showed under projects but it now no longer does. However, you don't have to open it for editing. If you use Tools->Add to Favouri

Matt H, I think we're stuck with the concept of "loading" a file at startup so I think we can't drop "load" from the file menus. But we definitely need to:disassociate the "file" actions from the Pane

Klaus, Is a turnout or a sensor information? It's an entity or item. "37" is a data item, possibly part of a set. "top-speed in mph = 37" is an item of information. I can't see any element of a panel

Addressing Steve G's concern: "Load and add items from file" and "Store all items to file"? (The most generic word I can think of that covers panels, turnouts, sensors, signals...) Dave H

What about "Add data from file"? Maybe the first should be "Load data from file" but even the first is actually an "add". Now I'm thinking it should always be "Load and add data from file". (If the us

Wouter, I use NetBeans IDE, but never use NetBeans inbuilt Git tools for any repository-modifying operations. I always switch to the command line to do that. Dave

Checked: NCE Simulator and NCE Power Cab with macOS Sierra, Windows XP and Ubuntu 14. NCE Power Pro and SPROG IIv3 (both modes) with macOS Yosemite. Basic functionality and PR 9229 fix all fine. Dave

PR <https://github.com/JMRI/JMRI/pull/9229> against release-4.21.3. Dave

I'm basing it on release-4.21.3 so it can PR against either. Turned out a bit more complex than I first thought running tests now... Dave

I've been testing and just discovered a serious failure that will cause some roster entries to fail to load correctly from a stored file. It affects all decoders that use splitHexVal or splitDateTimeV

Yes, that's definitely it. Dave H

Does the release build process automatically create a new decoderIndex.xml? I haven't updated it for about 3 months and it's lagging some of the latest definition updates... Dave
