Detect it Easy out of date

[TheCakeIsNaOH]

Detect it Easy is out of date. Current version is 3.00, chocolatey package version 2.05.

Seems like the author's site has not been updated, while the github releases have been.

Version 3.0.1 under review. Thanks for the information.

• The "Using AU" section in the verification.txt has an old URL.
• diel.exe no longer exists, there is only die.exe and diec.exe
• The start shortcut is not going be updated for 64 bit users, it is still pointing at the 32 bit folder. You are probably going to want to do something like this:

  if ((Get-OSArchitectureWidth -compare 32) -or ($env:chocolateyForceX86 -eq $true)) {
  $targetPath = [System.IO.Path]::Combine("$toolsDir", "die_win32_portable", "die.exe")
  } else {
  $targetPath = [System.IO.Path]::Combine("$toolsDir", "die_win64_portable", "die.exe")
  }

Corrected, Version 3.0.1 under review.

[TheCakeIsNaOH]

Upgrading from version 2.05, it creates leaves the old files around. It has the 2.05 files in die_win32_portable, and it has the 3.01 files in die_win64_portable.

Also, uninstalling 3.01 (after upgrading from 2.05) leaves the old start shortcut for Detect it Easy Lite.

[TheCakeIsNaOH]

Also, the die.exe shortcut does not work if --forcex86 is passed on an x64 system.

I have no idea how I can handle that (--forcex86). I have just asked to stand-by the review of this version while waiting your answer.

[TheCakeIsNaOH]

See the calibre package for how to check for --forcex86 https://github.com/chocolatey-community/chocolatey-coreteampackages/blob/master/automatic/calibre/tools/chocolateyInstall.ps1#L17

The pr #31 also takes care of the other two items

[chtof]

# Remove the folder from previous versions that were win32 only
if (Test-Path $win32Dir) { Remove-Item -Recurse -Path $win32Dir -ea 0 }

Perhaps for next version win64dir should be also removed to avoid to keep files from a previous 64bits version installed.

Corrected version has just been submitted, thanks a lot for your help! :-)

That is probably a good idea.

You are very welcome.
