Banksia GUI released

[Gabor Szots]

At the moment I can't find a pattern for the crashes. Below I show two samples from Windows event logging. The second one is a translation by me, for you to understand better, I may not have found the appropriate English terms. Common in the error logs is the modul which caused the error: C:\WINDOWS\System32\ucrtbase.dll

0xc0000409 ist "stack overflow". Too many functions called putting too much data on the stack. Usually you can give the linker an option for the needed stack size but I don't know anything about how Banksia is build so this is just a hint for the author.

I have the feeling that in round robin mode I can play more games before crashing. E.g. in Gauntlet/Carousel mode it crashed after game 21, while in RR mode (using the same engines) it took 120 games until crashing.

For a windows program you can also enlarge the stack of an existing executable

That's it. Just found out that it is important to first! select the "Open and view" option and after that start/resume the tournament. Switching to "open and view" when the games are already running doesn't change anything or at least not before next game.
Maybe it would be more intuitive to place the option dropdown box on the left and the start/resume button on the right?

Thanks for your GUI.
Andreas

Thanks for the feedback. I will make it react faster.

Another little issue (or feature that I don't understand):

In the tournament result dock and there in the tech register I can click the columns which usually should sort the rows with respect to this column? And indeed the order of rows is changing but it is not sorted at least not completely but only "a little".
I did that while games were running.

Regards, Andreas

Yes, you are right. It is a bug and will be fixed soon. Thanks again

[phhnguyen]

I want to compliment you for your efforts. A new look at how to present chess information is always a good idea.

You have a lot of innovations and features that are interesting. Do not be horrified by the bug reports in the initial stages, as these are inevitable. Keep plowing forward and maybe you will benefit everyone on the planet who loves the game of chess.

Thank you very much for the compliment & good words
Surely I keep working on this hobby

Version 0.20 beta released

1) Fixed bugs: almost all known bugs so far such as bugs on loading ongoing tournaments, tournament games on from round 2 have no openings, buttons for moving tournament records don’t work…

2) Some small improvements/adjustments

3) Some improvements

• Configurable adjudication by scores

• Play via Internet Chess Server such as FICS: show more info, result tables, summary; game can abort; Seek can use formula; Auto seek to continue playing event the account is a computer one.

4) New features

• Merge opening books in formats PGN and EDP

• Support multi-languages: it still needs translated language files. if you can, please help us and other people to translate BSG into your languages

Hi,
I just sent you the french translation (format .qm) to your gmail address

Wow, you are so fast. Thank you very much. I got it and am going to publish it soon. I believe the community will get benefits and highly appreciate your work!

Thanks all for your effort and info. Look like crash logs don't provide a good clue to guess the bug. Please try with limited tournaments (limit number of engines, games, turn off all logs, openings, syzygy...) to find the point/pattern of the crash. Thanks again.

Version 0.21 released

• Fixed bugs: almost all known bugs: can’t remember adjudication parameters, tech table can’t be sorted, crash if opening games when the main window minimized…

• Some small improvements/adjustments

• New feature: support French (translated by Arnaud Loheac)

Hi,
I wanted to try the new book merging options for pgn books, in Banksia 0.21
When I tried to make a bgdb from a pgn database, the pgn database is not listed.
I made a video capture of it:
