Yes and no. What happens here is that when SQLiteSpy creates / opens a database
file via an open / save file dialog, it employs the GetSaveFileName /
GetOpenFileName Windows API functions. Unless otherwise specified, those
functions change the application's current working directory to the one
selected last. As a result, the next open / save dialog will start right there
without any further program intervention. Unfortunately, this nice feature also
locks the current directory as a negative side effect, something I noticed with
other applications as well.
Directory locking can be avoided by passing the OFN_NOCHANGEDIR option.
Unfortunately, this also suppress any working dir changes so the next file open
will not automatically remember where the last one left off. Achieving both
ends would require to store the working dir as an SQLiteSpy option.
As I see it, the directory locking is not a serious problem but a small
inconvenience only. Anyway, I kept note of the issue to work on it when I next
find some time.
Thanks for the detailed report,
Ralf
