Re: GOWrite 3.1.6

Version 3.1.6 does not appear to have been placed in the downloads directory on the server. The link gives a 404 error.

OpenDocument Export Fails (MacOS)

Whenever I attempt to export a game to OpenDocument format, an empty .odt file is created. If I attempt to export a single diagram, I get an empty .odg file. The logs show the following error: 211221 141420.205 net.gowrite.sgf.SGFUtil log WARNING: Error in export background task java.lang.NullPointe...

Re: gowrite 3.0.23 on Macos won't create database

Just tried 3.1.5 on both High Sierra and Catalina. The binary stub compiled for Catalina won't run on High Sierra, and there isn't a precompiled binary for High Sierra. So I swapped in the script-based stub from 3.0.23, and that works fine on High Sierra. I'll just do that for any new releases from ...

Re: gowrite 3.0.23 on Macos won't create database

I just tried GOWrite 3.1.3 on my Macs. I have both a machine that's still stuck on High Sierra and one that's running Catalina. The 3.1.3 version won't run on High Sierra. I presume that's because the binary stub is compiled for Catalina and above. When I get a chance, I will investigate whether the...

Re: gowrite 3.0.23 on Macos won't create database

Further on the access to Documents issue, this article ( https://github.com/tofi86/universalJavaApplicationStub/issues/85 ) suggests that the problem arises from using JFileChooser rather than FileDialog in a Java application that starts from a script version of universalJavaApplicationStub (as GOWr...

Re: gowrite 3.0.23 on Macos won't create database

On Catalina, at least, you cannot add an application to the Documents access list through System Settings. It has to be a prompt from the application itself. (The plus sign is grayed out and inactive). I also tried granting GOWrite full disk access through Settings (which is enabled), but that didn'...

Re: gowrite 3.0.23 on Macos won't create database

Actually, it's the Documents folder it can't read. MacOS Catalina has introduced security restrictions on apps accessing the Documents folder. Permission has to be given by the user by responding to a prompt from within the app. I don't get a prompt from GOWrite so I can't grant it permission. I'm n...

Re: gowrite 3.0.23 on Macos won't create database

Made some progress on the database problem. The Info.plist file is messed up. I corrected the ClassPath, and I got the database stuff to work. But I notice that File|Open can't seem to read the directories either. Same problem with File|Save. I have discovered, though, that the "other platforms...

gowrite 3.0.23 on Macos won't create database

I just installed gowrite 3.0.23 on MacOS, but it won't create a database or write new settings to the configuration file. Otherwise, the program seems to work. Version 2.3 does create a database and record settings, so I've gone back to that version for now. I also tried using the configuration file...
