LIG, The ability to save a password line is missing in 4.3, but back in 4.4 and 4.5 (the build just posted). Explanation follows.
Before QCharts 4.3, people could get into situations where a establishing a connection was difficult, unless they first deleted their ContinuumClient.ini file (Cc.ini for short). The reason? Cc.ini contains a list of routers, sorted in order of best-to-worst connectivity during the previous session. QCharts tries those same routers again, starting with the 'best'. But if connection stats have changed and the 'best' router(s) can't be reached easily, one might not be able to get a connection. A person in this situation would normally quit QCharts, try a few more times (to get to the same routers), then call Customer Service. Customer Service would then advise them to delete the Cc.ini, and try again.
So, starting with 4.3, the Cc.ini is read into memory and deleted. If a connection is successfully made, the Cc.ini is written back onto the disk, for use next time. But if a connection is NOT made, then on next QCharts startup, you will have NO Cc.ini, just as Customer Service would advise in cases where you had trouble connecting. The net effect is fewer attempts are needed to log on. The problem is, the optional password line is not preserved when deleting/restoring Cc.ini.
Now, in 4.4 and 4.5, instead of deleting Cc.ini pending a successful connection, a shortened form is written, containing a password line if it existed before, but without the router list. After a connection is made, a full-version Cc.ini is written out, containing the password line if it was present before, and also the routers. |
