LDInspector

[Jaco van der Molen]

Thanks for re-testing and your report.  This is would match the old installer's behavior.  The new installer should try to download version 17 of jdk and jfx.

Downloading the installer from my website (after clearing caches) should result in an installer containing this line:

Code:

curl https://download2.gluonhq.com/openjfx/17.0.2/openjfx-17.0.2_windows-x64_bin-sdk.zip -o "%mypath%\openjfx-17.0.2_windows-x64_bin-sdk.zip"

If there is still some "bitsadmin" or "13.0.2" in the file, I assume your download link is not the same as mine.   Did you use this one:

http://www.fam-frenz.de/stefan/ldiinst.zip

or another one?

I used that link, but AFAICT this resulted in the old zip. Forcing reload helped and now I see the referring downloads to the 17.0.2 versions.
I will have to test on another laptop if the download of the FX does work now.

While working with LDInspector, I see this in a partslist of my model

   

What does that mean?

One other informative question: what does CS stand for in the partslist?

LDInspector remembers where it has found information about a part and prints them in the partlist as origin. Possible values are:

• ofc / official: part loaded from a library tagged "official"
  
• uno / unofficial: part loaded from a library tagged "unofficial"
  
• self / selfcontained: part loaded from the specified file
  
• unrsv / unresolved: part is not yet being searched for
  
• miss / missing: part could not be found in the current context
  

"CS" is just "column selected file", and then there are C1, C2, ... as "additional numbered columns".

Ok, in this case it is just good old brick 2x4 part 3001. How is that not official? I have a few other bricks that have that tag too.

As for CS... Ah, OK. Perhaps add a tooltip when one is hovering over such column header that says what said abbrieviation means?

Hmmmmm, this part should indeed be listed as official.   Maybe the part is inlined in the mpd? Or is the partlist created directly with a file that contains the part? Hmmmm. I'm not sure. If you don't mind mailing me your source, I would like to investigate how this came.

The tool tips will be added, thanks for the note.

OK, I am sure it is not lined. Or else something really strange happened, alas I cannot find it in the LDraw file.

Occurs with brick 3001, and 3003, 3005 and 3795 too.
I only used official bricks.

I can e-mail you the file (strictly confidential and FYEO) to ldraw at fam-frenz dot de?

Thanks to Jaco's suggestions now there is a new current version of LDInspector. Main changes are:

• Added csv export of part lists on Item tab and PartList tab.
  
• Added complete export of table on PartList tab.
  
• Added sort options on PartList tab.

That is quick. Thanks, I will check it out.

Hmm, this broke my copy. I replaced the old .jar file with this one, ran my usual launcher script, and got this error message in Terminal:

Code:

Error: Could not find or load main class ldinsp.LDInspector in module LDInspector

Methinks I've just forgotten the correct way to install updates…

Yes, I'm sorry: the packaging has changed some time ago. The start class is now ldinsp.guifx.starter.LDIGuiStarter (so there is "guifx.starter." added and the class name is replaced and now reads "LDIGuiStarter" instead of "LDInspector"). The complete start command should be something like

Code:

java --module-path .:javafx-sdk-13.0.2/lib/ -m LDInspector/ldinsp.guifx.starter.LDIGuiStarter

I hope this brings LDInspector back!

That did the trick!

mini-update: added progress for collision check to give a feeling how long it will take on big models.

[Stefan Frenz]

Today I released version 0.7 as current version, main changes since 0.6 are

• progress-indicator for large models (as in last mini-update)
  
• collision detection is multithreaded (not optimal, but faster than single-threaded)
  
• upgraded to Java17 and JavaFX17 (solves some GUI-problems)
  
• updated/fixed installer (Linux: j/jfx17, Windows: cleanup)
  

Thanks again for all contributions and feedback.

I could definitely see making use of a tool like this myself. I can run MPDCenter all right, but I have found it a little glitchy and wouldn't mind an alternative. So maybe I'll take a look at yours when I have occasion to check some files.
