*clippy!*Â Hit this plz: http://livewire90210.com/wordpress/tag/sysalive/ There are updates to the status of SysAlive 3, and that link will get you to all of them, including the latest release information.
For legacy/archive reasons, the rest of the post is here, but it is indeed available.
But seriously, I’m starting to love and hate Google all at the same time. Three hours of code got squashed by 30 seconds of copy/paste to make it do one notch better than it used to – in particular, it used to only be able to check if it could open a connection to a website.
Now it downloads the page that website serves, the theory being if it connects and is able to get the page, the server is not only able to accept connections, but is ALSO able to actually serve pages. I’ve seen x10’s (my paid hosting company) free servers do similar, where Apache is up and running but so bogged down or overloaded that it actually can’t serve pages anymore. SysAlive 2 would say it’s online, whereas SysAlive 3 would bail out and call it down or non-responsive.
No ETA on it yet though. I’ve still gotta do a bunch of things I took for granted on the original, namely the alert popups, sounds (which needed tweaking anyways), XML read/write, and some basic program settings, and minimize to tray…I should make a to-do list so I don’t actually miss anything.
And on the subject, why is it that I can’t code for ****? I’m having to spend lots of time just translating my own code from the old SysAlive to something with comments that I can actually use.
