Devel::WxProf::Manual - How to use WxProf

PREFERENCES

wxprofile's preferences are stored in the .wxprofile directory in the current user's application data directory (home directory on UNIX) in YAML.

There are two kinds of preferences: User preferences and dynamic preferences.

User preferences

Dynamic preferences

Dynamic preferences are stored in dynamic_preferences in the preferences directory.

Dynamic preferences are read at program start, and written at program end. They cover data such as the default directory, or window size and position (not implemented yet).

Errors reading or writing dynamic preferences are ignored.

Troubleshooting

If wxprofile does not remember it's last open location, you should check the following:

• Application data directory

  The application data directory exists and is read/writeable.

  perl -MFile::HomeDir -e "print File::HomeDir->my_data"

  will tell you the location of that directory (or what perl thinks it is...).

• .wxprofile directory

  wxprofile stores it's preferences in the directory .wxprofile in the application data directory. The directory will be created if not present.

  If it is present, check whether it is read- and writeable.

• dynamic_preferences

  Check whether there is a file named dynamic_preferences in the preferences directory. If there is one, along with one or more dynamic_preferences.1234 files, wxprofile cannot rename its temp file back to dynamic_preferences.

  Make sure dynamic_preferences is read-/writable.
