Make writing of settings.xml more robust #445

Open Joeran opened 9 years ago

Joeran commented 9 years ago

one user reported that docear overwrote a project's settings.xml with an empty file (Docear crashed during his work). maybe we can make writing that file more robust? i believe that one or two other users previously reported similar problems.

or at least, docear should be more robust when settings.xml is empty: i.e. docear should still start and ideally repair the file
