Re: [ease-dev] GSoC Signing Scripts

Just added a patch that allows to register arbitrary security checks before any script execution [1]. Hope that helps you to implement your task.

Hi Varun,

signature check belongs to the engine directly. I guess we discussed that topic already some weeks ago. Think of a main script that is correctly signed. When you check that in the launcher you might think everything is fine. Now that script includes a second source that contains unsigned code. It would load and execute it without checking and without informing the user.

User popups would be something that needs to be registered to the engine directly which then could run the callback in case of a problem. These things are not in place so far and I really doubt that they will be until pencils down by tomorrow.

Regarding your UI problem I would always use a treeviewer over a plain tree. However this is not a pressing topic anymore so we might skip it entirely.
