Re: Warnings when loading preferences

The code won't look as clean, but I can add the backwards compatibility functionality.

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Warnings when loading preferences

Hi. After upgrading my local wireshark to latest trunk I get some warnings from my preferences. I suspect someone rewrote the preference format without handling / converting old values?

Re: Warnings when loading preferences

Is it worth it when you can just resave your preferences?

The user may have several profiles with different settings, and will
have to update all profiles with new settings again.
I think we should try preserving the preferences instead of giving warnings.

We also mark removed dissector preferences
(prefs_register_obsolete_preference) and protocols
(prefs_register_protocol_obsolete) as obsolete.

And as a consequence we have a few of these cluttering up the code, should those live forever or
Can the be removed after a suitable amount of time?

We should at least support one major upgrade :)

Re: Warnings when loading preferences

Technically the prefences aren't "obsolete", they are just renamed for (internally) optimized code. Should the "old names" still be noted as such in a current preferences file? The main reason for the new "optimized" code was to get the "general" preferences to use the "preference API", like all of the protocol preferences are (so it would be open to being called "obsolete" in the future). That's why supporting this "backwards compatibility" to the old names of the "general preferences" will make the code look a little ugly, but is certainly acheivable.

We already handle a lot of renamed preferences in set_pref().

Re: Warnings when loading preferences

would it make sense to add version sections to the preferences file?  
Parsing the
preference file would a bit more work, but one could separate the  
modified preferences
in a proper way from each other.

Extra benefit: One could use the same preference file with different  
(older) versions of
Wireshark, without any problem (if such a feature get's backported).

Something like this:

<version: 1.6.0>
...
</version: 1.6.0>
<version: 1.8.0>
...
</version: 1.8.0>

Regards
Kurt

Very neat idea. It would probably make more sense to split into
minversion (for new preferences introduced in a certain release) and
maxversion (for preferences deprecated in a certain release) but the
concept is cool. It wouldn't solve this particular problem
unfortunately, because 1.8 and prior don't have support for those tags
and would throw a warning (or an error?) if it saw them. It would be
nice to have some version of this going forward for 1.10+ though.

Cheers,
Evan
