Hi, just a note

some minutes ago I generated an analysis ... where's the correct .wdd file?

- in \Projects\MyProjectName the file MyProjectName.wdd has a date of 16.1.2017

- in \Projects\MyProjectName\MyProjectName.ana it shows a date of 27.9.2017

- in \Projects\MyProjectName\MyProjectName.ana\LASTGEN it shows a date of 19.7.2017

- in \Projects\MyProjectName\MyProjectName.ana\ANA00038 it shows a date of 22.7.2017

Quite funny, isn't it?

Btw, HInfoAnalysis() shows the analysis GUID plus "38" as a hint where the right .wdd file should sit. But it doesn't, it's an older analysis ...

Hi Guenter,

I always use this one as my latest .wdd file:

\Projects\MyProjectName\MyProjectName.ana

but after I close the project AND the WINDEV/WEBDEV IDE.
Sometimes when I have worked all day in the IDE, I even RESTART my PC before copying/distributing the WDD.

Hi Guenter

I always used the file in the .ana directory and never had any problems doing so.


Furthermore, when you are talking about dates, are you talking about CREATION dates or last MODIFICATION dates? That may change completely your problem.

Best regards

Hi Fabrice,

all of these are both the creation AND the modification dates!

Of course, I'm always using the .wdd file in the .ana directory too! That's the one with the last generation date. No problem so far. But, why da hell is the output of HInfoAnalysis() a generation number (38) which is not current? On top of it, using the .wdd file in "\ANA00038" will trigger an error in HModifyStructure("*",nmsNormal), because it deems the set of files as not current.

Of course, not a problem that I couldn't handle, however it's an interesting phenomenon ....
