| Summary | 0004824: Make pk4 repacking more resistant to antiviruses | ||||
| Description | This is a small attempt to avoid a rather hypothetical issue with antiviruses. Right now when xyz.pk4 is repacked, we do it like this: 1. Create xyz.pk4.tmp --- the new version of file. 2. Delete the old xyz.pk4. 3. Rename xyz.pk4.tmp to xyz.pk4. In case someone scans newly created files, there is a chance that during step 3 TDM will try to delete xyz.pk4.tmp, which is being scanned by someone. Moreover, if it happens, then currently TDM will print error and abort loading, leaving player with only xyz.pk4.tmp on his filesystem. I'd want to change the scheme to: 1. Create xyz.pk4.tmp --- the new version of file. 2. Copy xyz.pk4.tmp to xyz.pk4. 3. Remove xyz.pk4.tmp (ignoring errors). If step 3 ends with error, user will have excessive tmp files, which he can always remove manually or just leave lying around. Among steps 1 and 2, only xyz.pk4 is modified. If such modification fails, player will still have the original pk4 file on its place (the tmp file can be ignored). | ||||
