New Release: Unleash It 2.1

September 10, 2004 01:11 by matthaw

Unleash It 2.1 has reached another milestone with many fixes and few additions. There isn't a ton of functionality change, however you should notice a few differences:

1. If you're modifying the configuration file outside of Unleash It (while its running), you will be notified to reload your profiles.

2. A few options are disabled in the VS.NET addin configuration, due to them not being used in the addin.

3. A faster startup time due to optimization as well as only checking for updates once a day.

So, the changelog is as follows (which can also be found here):

  • Optimization of code, now starts faster!
  • Upgraded to #ziplib 0.81
  • Added ability to duplicate profiles.
  • Added notification in the Windows Application when the profiles configuration is changed.
  • Fixed destination label oversight.
  • Fixed VS.NET plugin now correctly loads the configuration.
  • Fixed intermitten problems with testing FTP profile settings.
  • Fixed delay of file deployment notification in status bar area.

So, if you're currently using Unleash It, you can check for an update and it'll allow you to download version 2.1, otherwise follow this link to my website to download Unleash It.

Update: It seems as if there are problems if you run the installation while Unleash It is installed and/or running. I would suggest removing it completely first, then downloading it and installing it.

Update 2: I've pulled the installation until I can get this figured out.

Update 3: I've diagnosed the problem, fixed it, and a new build is available for download.

I don't like the new name of your tool. Every time I see Unleash It, I am forced to say the word "shit". Try something that doesn't have a curse word in it!@#$!!!

By the way, I just downloaded your latest release and I'm getting errors during installation and every time I run it. I never even get to see the gui it goes straight to the error. See below:



An unhandled exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in unleashit.common.dll



Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.



The debugger is showing that its in the UnleashIt.Common.Config.SaveConfig method. Thanks.

I'm getting JIT debugging errors on install, it comes up with which debugger do you want to use and all that, i let it finish up and then try to run it, same thing happens, I uninstalled it, same thing yet again.



Any ideas?

I get the same problem as the first post.  It sounds like there's a bug.  I don't know if it matters or not, but I do have Whidbey installed.

I believe the issue to be fixed, please re-download the new bits and let me know if there are any continued problems.

I'll try the new version at home to see if I still get the above problem, but it sounds like you must have got it.  Thanks!



Also, a possible setup enhancement...  I had left it running, then tried to install again, so it did an uninstall, then when it was trying to install again, it gave me an error "error opening for writing ... UnleashIt-GUI.exe ...".  It made sense of course, but maybe it needs to check if it's already running during both the uninstallation and installation.  It obviously didn't uninstall that .exe because it was running, but it didn't give an error either...no big deal though.

Yeah, thats another issue that I realized I had in this deployment. I'm going to make some modifications to the install for the next round.
