[09:00] <Happy-Ferret_> Hi, everyone
[09:01] <Happy-Ferret_> Just ran into a weird error with ScummVM on Mac OS X Mavericks. Somehow, all my games simply vanished.
[09:04] <Strangerke|work> hi Happy-Ferret
[09:04] <wjp> from the scummvm game list?
[09:04] <wjp> if so, that sounds like your config file may have been corrupted somehow
[09:04] <Strangerke|work> your games vanished? You mean, the detection entries in ScummVM, or the game data on your HDD?
[09:04] <Happy-Ferret_> Yep. The games list.
[09:04] --> droid2727 joined #scummvm.
[09:04] #scummvm: mode change '+o droid2727' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.
[09:04] <Happy-Ferret_> It appears the save games are still there, thankfully
[09:05] <Strangerke|work> what happens if you add a game?
[09:05] <wjp> (in most common cases, it'll automatically recognize the old savegames again if you re-add the game)
[09:06] <Happy-Ferret_> Yep. It recognizes the save games. Phew.
[09:07] <Strangerke|work> so as mentioned wjp, it's certainly a corrupted config file
[09:07] <Happy-Ferret_> For a second I thought I'd have to start Discworld from the beginning again.
[09:11] <wjp> I know we've talked about it in the past, but did we ever get around to making config file saving safer?
[09:12] <wjp> Doesn't look like it. Maybe we should.
[09:13] <Strangerke|work> a corrupted write to disk... I don't know how to work around that. And I'd like, considering how unstable my HDD are
[09:15] <-- D0SFreak left irc: Ping timeout: 258 seconds
[09:16] <Happy-Ferret_> Oh well. I'm off. Thanks for the help, everyone
[09:17] <Strangerke|work> Good bye and have fun Happy-Ferret_
[09:17] <-- Happy-Ferret_ left irc: Quit: Page closed
[09:18] <wjp> Strangerke|work: save to a separate temporary file and rename that, instead of truncating the config file and re-writing it
[09:19] <wjp> possibly checking the temp file if we're feeling particularly paranoid
[09:19] <Strangerke|work> but if you get a silent corrupted write, you'll still get a corrupted config file at the end
[09:19] <Strangerke|work> ha yes, I feel paranoid :)
[09:21] <wjp> I wonder what the most "common" causes of this are. Crashes? Non-crashing corruption bugs in our code? OS and/or filesystem issues?
[09:21] <wjp> (In decreasing order of simplicity to work around)
[09:29] <Strangerke|work> non-crashing corruption caused by unknown issues at OS or HDD level
[09:31] <Strangerke|work> I also have an interesting case of a depressed HDD which fake a suicide to get my attention. It's intriguing.
[09:31] <wjp> I tend to blame our own code before blaming the OS or hardware
[09:31] <wjp> (but then I'm not using Windows. *cough*)
[09:32] <wjp> but, yeah, in some cases it _will_ be that
