content folder name conflict - psme - 02-08-2012 13:26

for example on my PC, I have "D:\music" content folder in MinimServer. Then I add another content folder "E:\music", MinimServer said there is some conflict and won't allow me add the folder. I need to rename the folder like "E:\musics" then it work. Well, a really minor issue! Smile

This is a limitation that would be difficult to fix. Each content directory has its own pair of .mcache files, and these files are stored in the MinimServer application data directory. For multiple content directories with the same name, there would be a conflict with these .mcache file names. I thought about adding a conflict resolution algorithm for .mcache file names, but this introduces significant extra complexity and could also cause naming conflicts in certain cases.
