Hello,

In an effort to learn better this amazing tool called U++, I am taking a deeper look at the code provided. I have found that there are some broken packages that used to work but do not anymore with the latest distribution.

Namely, with the current (6031) build, I have so far found two packages with issues:

-Docking: it fails to build. The culprit is the width variable in DockPane.cpp. In older builds, the offending code was commented out, so it worked. I do not know the exact commit where this got broken.

-ProtectTest: The package builds correctly, however the custom build step for Windows reads

c:\desarrollo\upp\ProtectEncrypt.exe $(OUTPATH) <key value>

where key value is the hex code to protect the exe with. Instead it should be

ProtectEncrypt.exe $(OUTDIR) <key value>

(assuming that you put the ProtectEncrypt.exe in your path). I suspect that the POSIX build should be changed accordingly too.

On a side note, I can confirm that the "ordinary" Protect package (I have not tried the client/server yet) works with Visual Studio 2012.

I hope this is helpful. I will report any other broken packages that I find.

Have a nice coding,

Keltor
