ioTrayIcon

[dasOp]

Yes, I got bored enough to do one.
Also, if anyone has any ideas on what more to do with this, lemme know.

Limitations: None. As of ioFTPD 5.8.*, I can cleanly shut ioFTPD down..

Quirk: A doubleclick on the icon will execute the default menu action, which is to kill io if io is running, and start io if it isnt. So don't be too triggerhappy.

Useful: ioFTPD 5.8.* lacks the crashguard (good riddance, imo). However, for those that need it, ioTrayIcon has a keepalive option.

Usage? Start it, right click on tray icon and think a little.

34 downloads and no reply (well, one).
Did anyone not manage to get it working? Noone wanting to change anything?

Oh, it probably wont work on NT4.

excuse me is possible one new version with the option when ioFTPD.exe crashed?
now the script tell me evertime UP but if the ioftpd.exe crash don't tell me and i have see that when the program is strated with ioTrayIcon crash more times...is possible this? or one option for automatic restart when the program crash...

[dasOp]

Correct. In my TODO, together with making the tray icon survive an explorer crash. I think I know how to make it survive such a crash.

Your issue, on the other hand, is just a matter of having timed repeatable checks on io running.
What would be an acceptable timeslot on that? Checking every second would use an unnecessary amount of cpu. 5, 10, 15 seconds? Note that it is possible to start a crashed ioFTPD with ioTrayIcon, even though it indicates that ioFTPD is running.

I could add WM_PING for you, if you think you need it ;p Sending window message using SendMessage() should accurate and easy way of testing wheter program is responding or not. Another solution is that, you could make your program a debugger for io. => wait until io throws exception/quits.

thx man, this is exactly what i was looking for
really great of u to take the time to make this li'l thing.
works like a charm.

[Sersen]

maybe if possible let the icon change if for example are users logged in or something what i have on kerio personal firewall 2.1.5 which shows me that there is some kind of traffic with an arrow for upload and a arrow down for download...dunno if this works maybe a login must be provided for ioTray

anyway a nice suggestion..keep up your development on this sweet addon

bye

[dasOp]

I've considered doing that as well.
However, the smart way of doing that would be to interface with io in a more direct way, via dll plugin. I'm getting there, slowly.

[dasOp]

Ok, all requests done except the special upload/download icon.

[hot_pit]

dasOp you should add an link to change paht of ioFTPD.exe ... its kinda boring changing it from registry

[dasOp]

Ah, for multiple installs of io you mean?
If registry value isn't valid for some reason it'll ask you again.
So there should be no issue if you only have one installation.

[MaistroX]

I just tryed to install it and it gave me an Error 2755 , what does that mean ?
