[Bug 2049983] Re: open file list opens bz2 instead of xml selected

 

DC++ is not expecting the two types of files to co-exist in the same directory, especially not with different content. If a .bz2 file list is downloaded or opened with the program then it will be saved as uncompressed (.xml) immediately and the compressed version will be deleted automatically to avoid keeping duplicates.
So taking the above account, this is the expected behavior. DC++ stores the file list names only and upon opening it will look for a compressed version first and only if that has not been found then attempts to open an uncompressed one.

If you have any valid usage scenario where you have and need to extract
a .bz2 file list yourself and not leave it to DC++ for any reason then
please reopen.

Title:
  open file list opens bz2 instead of xml selected

Status in DC++:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  windows 64bit 0.880

  file > open file list

  pick a bz2 filelist, extract it (on windows i just right click and use
  7zip to extract) on linux go to filelist dir and bzip -d.

  select the xml filelist you just extracted.

  in your filelist dir , should be two files. example:
  user1234.hubhash.bz2
  user1234.hubhash.xml

  THE BUG: dc++ will open the bz2 filelist instead, even though you
  selected the xml.

  verify this by opening the xml, removing all file entries, saving it.
  then open the xml file when there is the same named .bz2 in the
  filelist directory.

  this bug was not fun to find. i am sad :(
