if they say "I'll have none of it" and then they browse the install folder and see Rubberduck.Telemetry.dll, then they'll escalate to network monitoring.
@Hosch250 bwahaha yeah, right
if that were the case, I wouldn't be #3 in the all-time VBA contributor rankings on SO
It makes it hard to explain to users (and troubleshoot problems) if we say "Telemetry isn't there when you have it disabled--unless you didn't choose disable at install".
I'd either have it be "enabled--on, disabled--completely gone" if that's what you want.
To best place to put things into said storage would be in the resolve runner base. But if we push all this data back, we can as well do it for all the data from the resolution.
That would be in line with how the parser does its work.
It collects all parse trees etc. per module and returns them to the caller that then deals with it.
They told me they'd change me to an architect, let me work from home more, and push for some of the systems to be redesigned if I'd stay, but I already signed paperwork with the new company, and I'm excited to do some contract work to get more exposure to other tech.
The company I signed with also emphasizes training heavily, so that's great--I love learning new things.
The company that just bought my employer out does that kind of thing.
We're about the 4th system they bought (unless it's the 5th--not sure if one of the systems is their home-grown one or not) that they are still running (phasing 2 out right now). They also sold a 6th system last year...
They specialize in credit card point programs and stuff.
And advertising. Like you walk into a store, and they send you ads about stuff there.
Your Debug.Print is showing the "right path" because it's printing a fixed, constant string. It's going to print C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\MacroExcerise` no matter what the contents of MyFile` because that's exactly what you've told it to print. — FreeMan12 secs ago
One thing I'm looking forward to in Core 3 is the love they're giving to gRPC. REST is nice and all, but sometimes you need something with a little more speed. It's gonna be key in sunsetting some of our busier WCF services at work.
Also, re "disable permanently" - big corps tend to deploy over SMS, which means taking install snapshots. If Rubberduck.Telemetry pops up as an installed file, it'll set the paranoia off...
(lol edit, SSMS is something else entirely!)
@Hosch250 not sure if you missed it, but in chat a while ago we were discussing using NLog to do the telemetry, rather than injecting anything new. Rubberduck.Telemetry would then just hold a custom NLog target. No DLL, no target, no telemetry
> I think that if RD is installed under the "Disable Permanently" option, the Telemetry page in the settings dialog should still be visible, but with wording like:
"Telemetry is not currently installed. If you wish to enable telemetry, please go to Control Panel, Programs and Features, then run the Rubberduck installer using Modify".
This: 1. Provides a route to enable later, but 2. Gives reassurance to the corporate IT reviewer that enablement is an install-only option (which they can a
