Beta 1.49a

[alex]

Previous version history

HippoEDIT 1.49a (NT/2000/XP/Vista/Win7)
HippoEDIT 1.49a (for 64 bit XP/Vista/Win7)
HippoEDIT 1.49a (98/ME)

*NT and 64 bit installers contains PDB files for better crash reporting, so size increased to 9 Mb

Because 1.49 should be released, 1.50 is not stable enough to be a safe beta, but correction betas is necessary, we introduce alpha numbering for post 1.49 versions .
But hope, there will be only 1.49a till release of 1.50, but who knows.

New history coming soon...
New beta installers coming soon...

For that ones, who interested why this dummy topic is necessary: I need to have thread link generated, to place it into new beta help and in update for new versions on site, BEFORE this new betas is published

There is no 1.49a  release yet, but I have updated 1.49 release as promised. Actual 1.49 build is 818.

What was fixed:
- Click on open/close button on the project node, in Project Explorer interpreted as double click and result in editing of the title
- For File.OpenOpposite check not only same directory but also open project, if nothing found in current directory.
- Wrong filter is applied in File Explorer after editor start, if on exit filter field was empty.
- default c_base.xml updated with additional FilePairs.
- New flag is added to settings.xml which controls commenting style. Details....
  To enable commenting of empty lines, add into <Formatting> section following key:

Code: [Select]

<Formatting>
<CommentEmptyLines>true</CommentEmptyLines>
</Formatting>


To get updated version, use release links on hippoedit web site or Help menu and Check for New version...

Best regards,
Alex.

I still get the "side-by-side" error with 1.49.821, running on Windows 7 64-bit, with the portable mode installation.

you can use this post for solution: http://forum.hippoedit.com/faq/version-1-4x-does-not-start-after-installation/

but before please check:
- do you have these folders on your PC
 
  for 32 bit version
  %WINDIR%\WinSxS\x86_microsoft.vc80.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.6195_none_d09154e044272b9a
  %WINDIR%\WinSxS\x86_microsoft.vc80.mfc_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.6195_none_cbf5e994470a1a8f
 
  for x64 bit
  %WINDIR%\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft.vc80.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.6195_none_88e41e092fab0294
  %WINDIR%\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft.vc80.mfc_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.6195_none_8448b2bd328df189

- do you have files like this in your hippoedit portable folder:
  msvcr80.dll
  msvcp80.dll
  mfс80u.dll

- have you selected Full installation or Custom?

You answers will help me to find a reason, why mfc libs were not installed by default.

Thanks in advance.
BR, Alex

The released 1.49 was updated to build 822 with following corrections inside:
- incorrect indenting when paste is done at the end of not empty lines
- crash after delete of OpenClose definition from syntax specification
- Logic for Join lines reverted, to no add extra space between lines. Alternative behavior can be activated with new XML flag JoinLinesWithSpace.

New update for 1.49 release to build 825 fixes following issues:
- Crash when Undoing action after collapsing of the changed area
- Incorrect decoding of the read files, with size larger than 64K when used encoding with variable symbol length (as UTf-8)
- Auto-Scroll of the window does not work, if window is initially closed
- Extended paste menu width calculated wrong in some cases
- Code Templates list in syntax settings looses focus and selection, after deleting of some entry
- Panes control buttons (close, auto-hide, expand etc) corrupted when pane is docked right and switched to auto-hide mode
- Empty files are not saved correctly
- Fit to page/document working wrong, if text already fits to screen
- Send Bug Report does not work if no default email client registered, but File -> Send works
- Copy To New Document from Output or Find Results window uses current file syntax, but not a Plain Text Syntax (or Output Window Syntax).

1.49.825 has a critical bug, because of which some files, longer than 64K are read incompletely.
