Cobian Reflector • Running task groups - name capitalisation issues

$

0
It's a set of 3 small bugs, but I lost enough time on those ones to report as it's annoying as hell.

Initial conditions: I'm using Task Groups to have everything neat. In order to trigger entire group, I have a dummy task with post-backup event "Start Group" set

Bug #1: When starting Group as post-backup event, the name capitalisation must match the group name BUT when a group is created with first letter in lower-case - Reflector will automatically capitalise it in the list (e.g. group "local" will be displayed as "Local" everywhere) but to invoke it, one needs still to use the original name - otherwise no task will be started at all

Bug #2
: Regardless of the above - when a group name is in lower-case - only the first task will be added to the queue! If user wants to run a group of e.g. 5 tasks from a dummy task, he needs to create group which name starts with an upper-case, otherwise only 1 task will run after initial one (this is the real issue of those 3)

Bug #3
: Seems to be a result of the 2 previous - user cannot create 2 groups that have the same names except the upper-lower case combinations, does not matter if it's first letter or not (e.g. out of "Johndoe", "johndoe" or "JoHnDoe" only one can exist at the same time, rest will result in "the group XXX exists already")

Quick footnote :) I created an account just to report those, great job on the program, I really love it, used to use cwRsync for my stuff, but Reflector is waaaay faster and more reliable. Best luck! :APP
