app termination actions

Dreamcooled commented 10 years ago

Sometimes settings are not properly saved and the other stuff is not executed when the app is terminated.

Seems to affect a couple of users, although it happens rarely. In order to be able to start SjUpdater again you have to delete the config.xml file.

Tipp: Start SjUpdater from Dropbox, to have your config.xml saved all the time.

This is how the error looks like:

Working on a autobackup/restore trick, so that at least we can restore the old config when it happens....

The following improvements have been made:

After successfully loading the config, a backup is made (config.xml.autobackup)
If we cannot load the config on startup, we try to load the backup and show a messagebox.
The config is now not only saved when you terminate the application, but also when you Minimize it
In case everything fails we automatically create a new config file, instead of crashing.

Hope this fixes the problem for the most users. I'll close this ticket and reopen it, if it's still a problem later...
