This is not a big problem, but an ongoing annoyance. If I run flexpde while my laptop is docked it creates a file named flexpde5.dbg on a remote server. When I later shut down my laptop, I get a this warning/info message: Offline Files … Unable to make 'flexpde5.dbg' available offline on \ … \flexpde5user. Files of this type cannot be made available offline. This is a minor annoyance, because every day that I run flex, it creates this warning that has to be closed before I can shut down my computer and go home. The file and it's folder (flexpde5user) seem to be created when I am queried for the license agreement. If I delete the *.dbg file, I can shut down without being interrupted by the warning, but then I get the license agreement query the next time I run flex while docked, and the problem is recreated. When I run flexpde without being connected, I am not queried for the license, flexpde5user/flexpde5.dbg is not created either on the server or on my hard drive, and flex runs fine without it. Is there a way to suppress the creation of this file? Or, perhaps can it be forced to be created on my hard drive, which might eliminate the warning? | ||

We don't have any laptops with docking stations, so this is a configuration we haven't tested. In theory, FlexPDE reads (and possibly writes) the file flexpde5.ini in the "My Documents\flexpde5user" folder, as being the only place we can safely assume write privileges. The flexpde5.dbg file is created there as well. I'm not sure why the operating system would redirect this folder to the remote machine.... The *.dbg file is really vestigial, having once been the place that debug information was dumped. I will look into eliminating it. | ||

"My Documents" is on the server. Something done by my company to help protect or backup important documents. But, FlexPDE5 is installed on the hard drive directly under C:\ Could the *.dbg file go in there? | ||

We have removed the creation of the 'My Documents/flexpde5user/flexpde5.dbg' file in version 5.0.21. A prerelease of this version for 32-bit windows has been posted at www.pdesolutions.com/download/xfpde5021x3win.exe . This will also appear in the version 5 buglist at www.pdesolutions.com/buglist5.html . |
