STB File Multilanguage Full-Mesh Consistency Checker

September 20, 2018 By Daiyuu Nobori

Overview

stbchecker is a utility to check the consistency between existing *.stb files (string resources) in the specified directory.

Works on Windows, Linux, macOS with .NET Core 2.1.
Written in C#.
Easy to use.

When modifying or adding any stb files, you have to check the consistency between all existing *.stb files. If there are any error, the SoftEther VPN programs may fail or crash on runtime.

You must not publish any build which has failed to pass stbchecker.

Usage

1. Install .NET Core 2.1

https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/dotnet-core/2.1

Option: Use Visual Studio 2017 on Windows

If you are using Visual Studio 2017 on Windows, you can open the stbchecker.sln file instead. With Visual Studio 2017 you do not need using .NET Core 2.1 command-line utility.

2. Go to the `developer_tools/stbchcker` directory

$ cd developer_tools/stbchcker/

3. Run stbchecker

$ dotnet run [hamcore_dir]

You need to specify the src/bin/hamcore directory of the SoftEther VPN repository. The hamcore directory has multiple *.stb files.

4. Show the result
