Fix Wizard

Looks nice JB. I looked at the FTP panel and it's very nicely done :)
Do you think it's ready to be merged? Or are you still working on it?

Cheers,
Philipp

Hi, work is still needed on this part.
I will contact you after a little more effort to discuss about merging.

Hope I'm gonna have some spare time soon to work on this :-)

Sounds good :-)

Hey JB,

Just reviewed the code and it looks really nice. I'd like to merge it
in my newsync branch, but I noticed that some of the panels reset the
language stuff, i.e. they remove the resourceBundle.getString(..)
calls. Could you fix that? You can do that in Netbeans by replacing
the text property with user code.

Cheers,
Philipp

Hey JB,

did you have the time to do the changes? I'd like to merge the code in the "newsync" branch.

Cheers,
Philipp

HI JB,

Did you make any code changes? Or just the structure? I'm currently
manually merging everything in the newsync branch -- actually doing a
merge didn't work, because the structure changed entirely...

Cheers,
Philipp

Hi Philipp,

like you asked me, I'm gonna continue to work on this bug on a branch merged with your newsync one :
lp:~jbvanpuyvelde/syncany/newsync-fixwizard

Good luck,
JB

Okay I merged it in the newsync branch. I'll upload it soon.
Any particular reason why you removd the localization stuff, or was that
accidentally? I realize that it does not work properly at the moment.

Yes, sorry but I got little problems with the localization stuff.

For instance, on the SettingsDialog, I wanted to add a button to create a new profile (instead of a line in the settings tree). But when I have done that, the label of all the other buttons disappeared (and only at runtime, it worked well in the netbeans preview mode of the window).

The only solution I found was to not use the RessourceBundle.

Maybe I've just not well understood how it works. Any idea ? I'll fix it if someone give me the proper way to do it.

I had the same problem (with the empty buttons). I figured out that if I
used the regular actionPerformed()-stuff instead of netbeans @Action, the
buttons would stay the same.
you can add custom code in the button/label text field with netbeans (in
this case, the resource bundle stuff).

however, the resource bundle stuff currently still uses the old *.properties
files, instead of the *.po files. that has to be fixed someday too.

Hey JB,

when you have the time: for the* first time wizard*, we need an extra panel
that asks the user for the username, and more importantly, the *computer
name*. Because when people try Syncany and launch two instances, they wonder
why it doesn't synchronize. We have to make sure that people understand that
they have to choose a distinct computer name for each instance.

What do you think about this?

Cheers,
Philipp

Good idea. I will make this addition soon as possible.
