OK so the last week or so, I've been thinking about designs and coding the DLL. From Sunday, I will be working on the GUI again so expect more releases next week
 
I have to for my FYP do a lot of research and push myself to learn new things and, more importantly, produce better code!

In case you didn't know, I've been drafting up my proposal to finally work on a new Wintoolkit v2 as my final year project at university. It will be EPIC. I've received feedback and made changes to my proposal, just awaiting for further feedback. Once that is done, I will submit it
 
I will keep you guys up-do-date in this thread as soon as I hear anything. Basically it will be starting WinToolkit from scratch. Here are a few things you should expect.
 
 ·         Make more use of mutli-tasking
All-In-One Integrator will integrate wallpapers, gadgets and others at the same time as other tasks, saving even more time. Run other tools whilst integration is in progress. Converting files, downloading and so fourth. Click here for multi-threading experiment results.
 
·         Run speed profile tests to see if code can be made more efficient.
 
I want Win Toolkit v2 to be very very efficient and run as fast a possible. This includes running automated tests which tell me the slow areas of my code and then I basically plan how I can make it fast. Every millisecond will count! This WILL improve ALL-In-One Integrator dramatically!!!!!!!!
 
·         Conduct extensive testing to ensure final software meets requirements.
 
I will have to do testing reports and documentation, hopefully you guys can help too.
 
·         Design and implement automated testing.
 
I will use the tools available in Visual Studio to design automated testing. This will ensure that if i make a change it wont screw up anything that worked previously. Each method will have multiple automated tests.
 
·         Automated online databases
The only database using SQL will keep automatically keep track of what of updates are LDR or GDR saving previous extracting time. Keep tracking of what updates can and can't be integrated. Allow me to add notes to updates so if an issue appears with an update I can make it show notes without havign to download a new version. The above three implementations will be amazing. You would not have update WinToolkit to solve integration issues, it will all be done without lifting a finger by anyone! It also includes other benefits.
Keep tracking of Win Toolkit updates. Track errors and bugs.  
·         Automatic Updating
 
Win Toolkit will update itself automatically (can be turned off) and will hopefully download only parts of the file which has changed saving your bandwidth. You will also have the option to download beta updates.
 
 ·         Consistent and predictable release cycle.
 
Test Builds: Pretty much every night.Beta Builds: Every Saturday night.Main Builds: First Saturday of the month.  WinToolkit v1Wanted to know what Win Toolkit looks like in its physical form? I decided to print out all the code and will be painfully going through it all to look for areas of improvement!

Hi Gurus,
 
I was just playing around with your brilliant tool and just got an thought of integrating the Win 7 and Win 8 both in a single disc.
I will explain in detail:
I have Win 7 in one folder and Win 8 in a different folder.
At first step, I select either the Folder or the ISO of either of the Win versions.
 
Can we have a method where in I can select two different folders and it loads all the versions found on those ISOs/Folders and then I could choose what all to integrate?
For example, I want to select Win 7 x64 Ultimate as well as Win 8 Pro with Media Center x64.
 
After selecting this - we should have an option to select updates for different Win versions but the silent installers, tweaks etc could be common.
 
So when booting from my disc, it will show me both the Win versions and I could select any Windows version.
 
Is this possible, or is it hypothetical or is it invalid?
 
Help Gurus!!!
 
Will wait for your replies.

In case you're wondering why there has not been any releases for a while, it's because I'm preparing to start the v1.5 release.
Before I can start that build i have to do a lot of 'code refactoring' which I haven't done since v1.2. Basically, this is where I update all of my old code to the new methods I have learned since originally coding that part of the code. It will make Win Toolkit more efficient and hopefully faster (last time it made it way faster). Most importantly it will allow me to easily add new features.
This however does take time. We are talking about 1 person (me) individually checking 50,000+ lines of code and updating if necessary :-O

OK, i've updated All-In-One with the new design. I've also added the new Component Removal which doesn't work yet which is why there is two in the picture.
What do you guys think?
