[Icon-tech] Developer Update

[Keith Watson]

Michael,

There needs to be some mechanism for being able to delete a third party app
that has been installed. I went around and around with getting all the parts
of blackjack removed so that I could update it to support the move to 2.6. I
finally found /etc/installed.d and removed the xml there and was able to
install the new version. The problem occurs when one reflashes the unit. The
third party app is no longer installed. But the xml still exists because it
was backed up and restored. Now your unit thinks that the package is
installed when in actuality it is not.

Just my 2 cents.

Keith

Is there a big need to be able to uninstall programs??

I've done some work on creating help for third party apps.  If you create a
new app from a template, it will create a help html file and install it to
the correct location.

Hi, One thing I would like to see in developer is an option if a user 
installs a project from with in developer they also be able to remove the 
project.  There is no option 3 and clearly that should be remove.  Another 
feature that I would think would be nice is some easy way of writing 
documentation so from with in a program a user could just tap the help key 
and get into the manual for your program as I don't see a way to do this 
currently.  Is there any guidelines on writing documentation and where it is

to be put and what is the name of the file for it?
