[WriteLog] Contest Module Dev: couple of questions

[Don Hatlestad]

I'm having fun playing with developing a contest module. The puzzle is
about half solved. Please give me a couple of clues to move along.

Does the g_<<whatever contest>>ConfigArray[CONFIG_LENGTH] array need
to have entries for every exchange field? In my little sample contest,
I'm using named and DXCC mults with a couple of other exchange fields
and am wondering if I add their POS and WID to the array.

In the MultsAndPts method, am I just checking for debugging purposes
and not changing anything or am I supposed to be changing the mults
and points? (There is a TODO comment with an empty loop in there.)

Any clues about big pitfalls would be very welcome.

My contest module is at the point where my exchange input works and I
save some contest user parameters. Still to do is setting the point
value for each Q and total score calculation. I think I have a bug in
the way mults are counted--we'll see. If I am still motivated, I might
try to get ADIF working and maybe even Cabrillo output. Developing the
module is pretty complicated, being a little sparse in the
documentation department, but at least it's possible. That can't be
said for other leading contest logging programs. For example, try
getting the Win-Test developers to add state QSO party modules let
alone a somewhat small contest--good luck.
