Re: How to turn a "developer code" into a "user code"

1. If the program is for your friend, why can't you tell him to intall the repsective packages?
3. If he doesn't know anything about programming, why bother with the log4perl? If there's a problem, he won't read the log in the first place, just will send the log to you.
My opinion: if he's a friend, let him deal with the developer code. Maybe your friendship will suffer, but hell, you can't have it all...:)

I install the different packages for my friend. Log4perl is just for me. Putting it at FATAL or WARN is just a way for me to "almost turn it off". My friend doesn't want to see a source, or have to use the command line. The best i can ask him is "put your information in the configuration file, and double click the icon to start the program." Make him read the source code, i tried, i tried... ;o) Maybe i'm being too kind to him :oP But it's not too hard for me to make his life easy, so... =o)	[reply]
