- Renamed enableFixMods to multipleSelected so same value can be used to decide
whether to show single or plural version of "Delete save(s)"
-- Save game deletion now does Recycle Bin delete (wishlist #675)
-- Save game deletion now also deletes .skse file (bug #687)
-- Can select and delete multiple save games (ExtendedSelection) (wishlist #675)

-- Context menu - "Fix Mods.." option only appears if 1 save is selected
-- Context menu - delete menu option labelled "Delete save" or "Delete saves",
according to 1 or >1 saves selected.
-- Context menu - delete menu confirmation shows list of all selected saves
-- New - SaveGame->saveFiles(), returns all filenames for save (eg. ess + skse)
-- Moved - SaveGameGameBryo->attachedFiles() to SaveGame->attachedFiles()
-- This allows the getting of save file names with just a SaveGame object, not
a GameBryo object, which would do a full file read including plugins and image etc.
-- Therefore SaveGame is no longer abstract.
- Transfer Saves: re-factored to use new SaveGame->saveFiles() method
-- Removed - TransferSavesDialog->getFilesToProcess, now redundant as information
is now provided by SaveGame class itself.
Extended the new ModOrganizer.pro 'make install' steps, to now also copy
$$(BOOSTPATH)\stage\lib\boost_python-vc*-mt-1*.dll
This is the final install step required, so that now ModOrganizer.exe works
fully when a Qt-Creator "Run" step is performed.
The wildcard should pick up the right version of the library regardless of
MSVC compiler version used.
Updated Qt5 version check to the standardised greaterThan check.
Previously, qmake did not detect when code was changed in the static libraries
So for example, changing code in shared/*.cpp and then Build, would not cause
a re-link and re-deploy of ModOrganizer.exe.
This has been fixed by adding PRE_TARGETDEPS references to each project that
depend on static libraries provided by other sub-projects.
These checks are conditional on debug|release, to point to the correct lib.
List of currently configured static library dependency checks -
organizer - mo_shared.lib, bsatk.lib
hookdll - mo_shared.lib, bsatk.lib
shared - bsatk.lib
bsaExtractor - bsatk.lib
I have tested to confirm that changing a shared file results in re-linking and
re-deplomyent of both ModOrganizer.exe and hook.dll.
Note that dependencies have not been configured for DLLs, as these are
loaded dynamically and so recompilation is not required.
But there could be an argument for configuring DLLs as dependencies too -
as if you make a change in DLL code, you might want all clients of the DLL to
be recompiled to check that they have not been broken by the changes?
The downside of that would be extra re-compilation every time.
Many small formatting changes to the majority of .pro files
Consistent style for Qt version checking, using greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4)
This seems safest, as would continue to work for a future Qt 6 etc.
Note that this makes redudundant the commit before this one, to organizer.pro
Consistent indenting
Moved some file configuration sections to be together with related sections
Moved some installation-related sections (e.g. OUTDIR/DSTDIR) to be at the bottom,
immediately before the related POST_LINK install lines.
Similarly, in some cases separated out CONFIG(debug,.. checks into separate
LIB/INCLUDE sections (high in file) and installation directory sections (low
in file)
Added config to install required libraries to output(d) directory
If the user adds a Deploy step, that runs 'jom install', he will have the
necessary libraries copied to output(d)\dlls
These libraries are -
7z.dll
Qt4 Core Declarative Gui Network OpenGL Script Sql Svg Webkit Xml XmlPatterns
Different set configured for Qt5, e.g. adding Widgets, Qml, Quick
In a debug build, the 'd' DLLs will be used instead.
Qt4 libraries are copied from system Qt4 installation directory.
This allows the Qt-Creator user to hit "Run" in Qt-C and end up with a complete
install, including all DLLs; no manual Exporer copying required.
This therefore removes the need for post-build steps 10 & 11 in Readme.txt.
Future thought - Update all current POST_LINK (x)copy steps to make install?
Fixed DESTDIR in ModOrganizer.pro
It was pointing to source/output(d) before, should be ..\output(d)
It was not used before so didn't matter, but is now referenced for install.

- bugfix: extracting now stops after an error
- bugfix: the way hook.dll caused CREATE_ALWAYS/CREATE_NEW to always write into overwrite could lead to the
file being created when the call should have failed (because the file existed and was protected)

Building Mod Organizer can be a rather daunting task especially if you're not very comfortable with C++ development under windows.
Please note that if you only want to work on and build a plugin you can save yourself a lot of trouble
Overview:
---------
As of Juli 2014 MO consists of the following subprojects:
- organizer: The main userinterface. heavy usage of various libraries
- hookdll: core library of the virtual file system
- uibase: interop between plugins and the main application as well as some reusable functionality
- shared: functionality shared between organizer and hookdll. I'm attempting to get rid of this library over time
- nxmhandler: tool to pass handling of nxm links to MO or other applications
- helper: tool for doing operations requiring elevated priviledges if MO doesn't have them
- proxydll: dll used in the "proxy dll" load mechanism
- esptk: small library containing functionality to work with esps/esms
- bsatk: small library containing functionality to work with bsas. Requires zlib to extract files. Requires boost_thread to provide multi-threaded extraction
- archive: small wrapper library around 7zip for dealing with mod archives. Requires 7zip
- NCC: extension to NMM to provide a binary with command line interface for fomod installation. This is c# code and does not build with the rest of the project. Requires the rest of NMM
- bossdummy: dummy dll that looks like the boss.dll. This is used instead of the real boss dlls in NCC to save some disk space
- pythonrunner: library for embedding python code. Requires boost_python, python 2.7 and pyqt4
- loot_cli: this is a command line client of loot. This can be better integrated with MO than the official loot client.
And various plugins:
- bsaExtractor: offers to extract bsas after a mod has been installed
- checkFNIS: Activates each time an application is started from MO and runs fnis if necessary
- diagnoseBasic: Various diagnostic checks on the game
- inieditor: minimalistic file editor for ini files
- installerBundle: handles installation of archives wrapped in archives
- installerFomod: handles installation of xml fomods
- installerManual: handles installations of archives that aren't supported by any other plugin (or if the user chooses to do the installation manually)
- installerNCC: handles installation of any fomod (requires NCC)
- installerQuick: handles very simple one-click installations
- NMMImport: importer from existing nmm installation
- proxyPython: integrates pythonrunner as a plugin into MO
- pyniEdit: more user-friendly ini editor. python code
- previewBase: used for file previews. this plugin covers image formats supported by the qt installation (usually at least jpg, gif, png) and text files
- previewDDS: used to preview dds textures. uses code from the nif file format library
There are a few more plugins that are either broken or samples
- installerBCF: this was intended to use .bcf (bain conversion file) files as installation instructions but currently it is completely function-less
- helloWorldCpp: sample for cpp plugins. This should compile even without fulfilling most dependencies below
- pageTESAlliance: integrates the tes alliance page into MO. This integration is not nearly as tight as that of nexus.
Requirements:
-------------
Visual C++ compiler 2010 (VC 10.0) or up
- Included in visual c++ express 2010 or windows sdk 7.0
- Included in visual c++ express 2010 or windows sdk 7.x
- Do install windows sdk too if only for the cdb debugger which is included in that package
Note: If you're having trouble installing the windows sdk, you may be affected by this bug: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2717426
- i.e. "Qt libraries 4.8.6 for Windows (VS 2010, 235 MB)"
- tested: 4.8.6
- Install according to instruction
Qt 5 Compatibility:
MO compiles and mostly runs correctly built with Qt 5.3 and VC++ 2013 but
- python plugins haven't been rewritten to use qt5 yet
- pyqt5 isn't distributed as binaries for python 2.7 so this needs to be set up and built first
- tutorial doesn't work because it seems to be impossible to create a transparent Qt Quick control...
- the previewdds plugin only compiles with the opengl variant of the qt 5 distribution
- Qt5 is a bi*** to distribute
boost libraries (http://www.boost.org/)
- Compile according to their instructions (using vc++)
- As of time of writing boost_thread is the only compiled boost library used, you can
disable the others to safe yourself the compile time
- tested: 1.55
- Build according to their instructions (using vc++): http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/more/getting_started/windows.html
- A few of the boost libraries need to be built (the rest is header-only). The only compiled libs MO needs (at the time of writing) are
boost_thread (for everything that links agains bsatk) and boost_python (for pythonrunner). You can disable the others to save yourself compile time (even on a modern system compiling boost can easily take an hour)
zlib (http://www.zlib.net/)
- Compile static library according to their instructions
- You should have a "zlibstatic.lib" under "build" afterwards
- Depending on the version of zlib and how you built you should have a file called zlibstatic.lib or zlibstat.lib in "build" or "x86\ZLibStatRelease".
- Please copy that lib file to "build\zlibstatic.lib" (if it doesn't exist) so MO finds it.
- Included in QtSDK but there might be a newer version as a separate download
- http://qt-project.org/downloads#qt-creator
- I.e. "Qt Creator 2.8.1 for Windows (53 MB)"
- With Qt Creator usually the rule is "the newer the better"
- Start Qt Creator and check if things are set up correctly:
1) Go to Tools > Options > Build & Run > Qt Versions
2.1) If the QtSDK 4.8.x you installed earlier is not auto-detected, click "Add" to add it manually
2.2) Navigate to your <your qt4 installation>\bin\qmake.exe
2.3) Restart qt creator
3) Go to Tools > Options > Build & Run > Kits
3.1) If no Kit is auto-detected (or the auto-detected ones have picked up the wrong qt or vc++ installation) click "Add"
3.2) Enter a Name (i.e. "Qt 4.8.5 MSVC2010 32bit")
3.3) In Compiler select the visual studio compiler installed earlier (may show up as "Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows x). Make sure you select the x86 variant
3.4) CDB should be auto-detected
3.5) Select the qt version set up earlier
4) Apply and close the options
Set up (using Qt Creator):
--------------------------
1. Using Qt Creator open source/ModOrganizer.pro from your working copy
2. Open the "Projects" tab, open the "Details" for "Build Environment"
3. Click "Add" to add a variable called "BOOSTPATH" with the path of your boost installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\boost_1_52_0)
4. Click "Add" to add a variable called "ZLIBPATH" with the path of your zlib installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\zlib-1.2.7)
5. Switch the build configuration at the very top of the same page from "debug" to "release" (or vice versa) and repeat steps 3 and 4
6. Compile the configuration(s) you want to use (debug and/or release) (Build All). This should compile correctly.
3a. Click "Add" to add a variable called "BOOSTPATH" with the path of your boost installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\boost_1_49_0)
3b. Click "Add" to add a variable called "ZLIBPATH" with the path of your zlib installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\zlib-1.2.7)
3c. Click "Add" to add a variable called "SEVENZIPPATH" with the path of your 7zip installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\7zip)
3d. Click "Add" to add a variable called "PYTHONPATH" with the path of your python installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\python)
4. Switch the build configuration at the very top of the same page from "debug" to "release" (or vice versa) and repeat step 3
5. Compile the configuration(s) you want to use (debug and/or release) (Build All). This should compile correctly.
6. <reserved for future use. Maybe grab a coffee?>
7. return to the "projects" tab and switch to "Run Settings"
8. Determine the folder of the qt binaries in the package you downloaded. This could be "QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.8.5\msvc2010\bin" or "Qt4.8.5\bin"
For Release build:
8r. Add a "Run configuration" that points to <your working copy>\output\ModOrganizer.exe
9r. Copy "7z.dll" to <your working copy>\output\dlls
10r. From QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.8.0\msvc2010\bin copy the following files to <your working copy>\output\dlls: QtCore4.dll, QtDeclarative4.dll, QtGui4.dll, QtNetwork4.dll, QtScript4.dll, QtSql4.dll, QtWebkit4.dll, QtXml4.dll, QtXmlPatterns4.dll
9r. Add a "Run configuration" that points to <your working copy>\output\ModOrganizer.exe
10r. Copy "7z.dll" to <your working copy>\output\dlls
11r. From the qt binaries directory, copy the following files to <your working copy>\output\dlls: QtCore4.dll, QtDeclarative4.dll, QtGui4.dll, QtNetwork4.dll, QtScript4.dll, QtSql4.dll, QtWebkit4.dll, QtXml4.dll, QtXmlPatterns4.dll
For Debug build:
8d. Add a "Run configuration" that points to <your working copy>\outputd\ModOrganizer.exe
9d. Copy "7z.dll" to <your working copy>\outputd\dlls
10d. From QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.8.0\msvc2010\bin copy the following files to <your working copy>\outputd\dlls: QtCored4.dll, QtDeclaratived4.dll, QtGuid4.dll, QtNetworkd4.dll, QtScriptd4.dll, QtSqld4.dll, QtWebkitd4.dll, QtXmld4.dll, QtXmlPatternsd4.dll
9d. Add a "Run configuration" that points to <your working copy>\outputd\ModOrganizer.exe
10d. Copy "7z.dll" to <your working copy>\outputd\dlls
11d. From the qt binaries copy the following files to <your working copy>\outputd\dlls: QtCored4.dll, QtDeclaratived4.dll, QtGuid4.dll, QtNetworkd4.dll, QtScriptd4.dll, QtSqld4.dll, QtWebkitd4.dll, QtXmld4.dll, QtXmlPatternsd4.dll
Now you should be able to compile and run Mod Organizer.
Please note that when you change anything apart from the "organizer" subproject, qt creator may not pick up on the changes

I'm not using this workflow so I can't give more detailed instructions.
Please note that the primary project format of MO remains qmake, if you work with visual studio and make changes to the project (like adding
source files) you have to manually transfer those changes to the .pro file.

-----------------
Troubleshooting (thanks to Ross):
-----------------
1) When I try to build, I am seeing the error "error: LNK1104: cannot open file 'zlibstatic.lib'"
a) Make sure you have the following files
{ZLIBPATH}\build\zconf.h
{ZLIBPATH}\build\zlib.h
{ZLIBPATH}\build\zlibstatic.lib
b) make sure "zlibstat.lib" was renamed to "zlibstatic.lib"
c) currently, there are references to zlibstatic in the following 2 project files:
./bsatk/bsatk.pro
./hookdll/hookdll.pro
2) After building, I try to open {MOPROJECTPATH}\outputd\ModOragnizer.exe and get this error
"The program can't start because QtDeclaratived4.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
-> When setting up Qt4.8.x, make sure you copied the "d" (debug) versions of the dll files to {MOPROJECTPATH}\outputd\dlls
If you copied the release version or did not copy the dlls at all, you may see this error.
3) I am getting one or more of the the following compiler warnings...
"{MOPROJECTPATH}\source\bsatk\bsaexception.cpp:32: warning: C4996: 'vsnprintf': This function or variable may be unsafe.
Consider using vsnprintf_s instead. To disable deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See online help for details."
-> Ignore/suppress warning like this and make be ultra-careful using printf-style functions. vsnprintf_s is a visual-c++ only function so using those would make porting (i.e. to mingw) harder
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\INCLUDE\stdio.h:354: see declaration of 'vsnprintf'"
-> see previous
"debug\bsaarchive.obj:-1: warning: LNK4042: object specified more than once; extras ignored"
-> This appears to be an issue when using VC++ 2010 as the compiler. There are some posts on StackOverflow
which suggest fixes when using VC++ as the IDE, but not sure how to apply them to Qt Creator.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3729515
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3695174
-> Also, not sure if this affects VC++ 2012 / VC++ 2013 / GCC via cygwin/mingw.
Not even sure if the project would successfully compile on these.
"{MOPROJECTPATH}\source\organizer\mainwindow.cpp:3995: warning: C4428: universal-character-name encountered in source"
-> very pointless warning.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11589571
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7078013
the best solution I saw was to just disable the warning altogether...
#pragma warning( disable : 4428 )
