PRT Loader filename parsing

Deprecated Krakatoa 1.0 Beta Discussion

I have a file named…



PflowSys1_part1of10_part1of30_0000.prt



Stupid me! Anyway, I think the Loader should parse the file name string from the right side, not the left to determine partition count.



Hmmm… Must be getting ready for release candidate, no? I’m nitpicking.

Nope, not RC yet, and this is not nitpicking, it is a valid comment - I would also expect it to check from right to left.



Unfortunately, the feature is not in the GUI realm (I am calling a built-in function to inspect the partition count), so I cannot fix it myself unless I add my own parsing code which would be redundant. Will log it as a bug and see if it can be fixed at the plug-in side.
