[1.1.0-Beta1] IDE: Sikuli might delete used images on save --- workaround: switch of pref option until fixed --- fixed in Beta2

[Ben Stanley]

**** workaround until fixed

switch of the option "delete not used images on save"
in IDE -> Preferences -> more options

------------------------------------------------------

**** this bug is related to bug 1324324

---------------------------------------------------

Using Sikuli 1.1.0 Beta1 on RHEL6.4 x86_64

I have a 400 line proprietary script, containing the order of 50 images.

When I save the script, Sikuli deletes all but 10 of the images.

I have been working with 3 scripts open simultaneously. I don't know if this is a contributing factor.

I have taken to running a background backup. When Sikuli deletes the images, I copy them back from the backup, and all is well.

I have lost many images and it is difficult to re-generate them to put back in the script folder!

I am sorry I am not able to send you a reproduction.

I ran sikuli with -d 3 and obtained the following log information during a save:

Many of those images are used, so it seems that there is a defect in deciding that an image is not used.

[Ben Stanley (ben-stanley)]

Please note that Sikuli also deletes images that are referenced by commented out code.

[RaiMan (raimund-hocke)]

Is this the folder of the saved script?
/home/user/Testing/Test2.sikuli

[Ben Stanley (ben-stanley)]

Yes, the python script and all the images are in that directory.
