<0> eh, surte
<0> sure*
<0> it'll be good for a post-lunch laugh
<1> anyone have a good idea on how to keep my program files 'safe'?(not letting the user remove/delete/rename/change/etc then)
<1> i though of opening them in the start of the application and keep them open, but i'm looking for some other ideas too.
<2> ahh, it's not in the outtakes, it's an actually in the movie
<0> Saww: no, there's no good way
<0> All your idea requires to delete them is to close the application. then they're no longer open, and can be deleted easily enough
<3> you could create a service that runs in the background that keeps a lock on them, but then all the user would have to do is turn off the service.
<0> might have issues with the application trying to use them, tho
<3> perhaps you could set permissions on the files so that only a specific account can change / delete them... ?
<3> add the account during your installation.
<0> Yes, but then he'd have to programatically create that account, keep track of it, etc
<3> theoretically that might work.
<0> and I as a user would be pissed off if his install that that to me
<3> and yes, he would have to do that.
<1> Teycho - sorry but i didn't understand what you said. "All your idea requires to delete them is to close the application." - mind rephrase that plz?
<0> but, most users are administrators on their own machine and can easily take ownership and delete the account
<3> and yes, as a user, if i noticed, i would also have the WTF reaction.
<0> Saww: "Your idea won't work".
<0> that's about exactly what I meant
<1> why not?
<0> Becuase as soon as your application is losed, the open files would be close
<3> when the user closes the app. then the user can change delete the files accoding to your plan.
<0> Then they could be deleted just like normal
<1> i don't mind about tha...
<1> that*
<3> oh
<0> So... you're only worried about people deleting files while the app is running?
<3> you only care while the app is in use?
<1> i'm just worried they touch them while the program is opened
<3> hm
<1> ya..
<3> tell them not to?
<0> Well that's... an odd concern
<3> ask them pretty please?
<0> and code for the case that they ARE deleted
<1> or just make sure they won't be deleted... or do both ;P
<3> offer them a little bribe? like ... "I wont crap out on you if you don't change the files while I'm running." ...?
<0> make it part of the EULA. Then they're legally bound to not ouch them
<0> tough*
<0> damnit
<0> touch*
<1> peabrain - lol
<1> what's EULA?
<1> end-user license agreement
<1> still not sure what 'make it part of the EULA' mean..
<0> Nevermind, then
<3> he was kidding anyway
<1> oh hehe
<0> I forget- what's this app you're making?
<4> if they delete your files, randomly delete 3 of theres
<4> its an electronic cold war
<0> yes, 'eye for an eye' file protection
<1> Teycho - i didn't say
<1> lol
<0> Then what is it?
<1> a series program.
<1> something to manage all my series files/information i want.
<1> the description of it will probably get clearer when i'm done with it..
<4> doubtful
<0> Define 'series'
<1> tv-series
<0> tv series? world series? series sattelite radio? numerical series?
<0> ah
<4> http://www.craigdeluz.com/2007/01/kids-kicked-off-bus-for-speaking.html
<0> this means one of two things
<0> one, you're making this only for yourself, and you would not delete the files while the program is running
<0> or two: you're making this for anyone, maybe one or two people will ever see it, and likely they will not delete the files while the program is running
<1> well when you(generally) build a program, you need to be ready for all cases, right?
<4> I personally have a strong expectation that if I delete critical files while a program is using them, that the program will not function as expected
<4> not really
<1> most cases? :\
<4> the cases that are reasonable to expect
<4> if its a personal use program, you can expect almost flawless input from the user
<0> You don't need to code for the user opening this file and press Alt+5 on june 25th on a leap year
<0> even if that DID screw up your program
<0> because, well... it just isn't going to happen
<0> if you coded for every possible case, you'd not be done writing till 2012
<1> lol
<1> right as always...
<0> and yes, if the user deletes files, they're taking the risk that it'll screw something up
<4> my personal little utilities never include much error checking
<0> quiet!!
<0> fed-man is here
<0> 'the man', 'el federales' (sp), etc

<2> the water balloon, bottom right, is the best
<4> indeed
<5> hello
<5> where can I download VB 6?
<0> You don't
<0> VB Express (.net) is free, though
<4> vb6 costs money
<4> vb.net is free
<4> so vb6 must be better!
<0> loooool
<5> Huh?
<5> Does make sense
<5> but
<5> i really really need it?!
<0> Then really really go buy it
<0> it's a simple as that
<0> VB6 is not a free product.
<0> I _really really_ need an iPod, but does that mean I can get one for free?
<5> emm maybe
<5> u never know
<3> you don't really need an ipod though, do you? i mean really?
<0> You DO see the point I'm making, right?
<0> need!
<0> I will fail at life without an iPod! :\
<0> (It's a complete lie, but I had to come up with something on the spot)
<5> I see ur point
<5> lol
<5> n its funny
<5> but
<5> I still
<5> really
<0> I do what I can to bring humor to common sense
<5> really
<5> need one :p
<0> Then
<0> Go
<0> Buy
<0> One
<0> We
<0> won't
<0> tell
<0> you
<0> again
<0> And you're no longer allowed to use the 'Enter' button
<5> lol
<5> oh, okay * i have to use it here so that u can read the msg i wrote , I hope u don't mind*
<0> don't be facetious, you know what I mean
<5> okaayyyy
<3> this is not the warez channel. that's over there --->
<0> over where?
<3> how the hell should i know... i don't do warez
<3> Not Here.
<3> that's all I know.
<0> cause I think you were pointing to the loliporn channel
<5> i didn't know that vb 6 is not free
<3> Oo
<3> um.
<3> well now you do.
