Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Tom,

If you already have chart files compatible with OpenCPN you don't need to use the chart downloader. Just add your already existing chart folders and click OK to close the options dialog. Then...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

I am not familiar with "Panama R.P." but I assume Gulf Port is in Mississippi. OpenCPN has a chart download feature that can download and install all NOAA charts of US waters. You need Internet...

What computer operating system are you using?

What charts are you trying to download?

Ok, I guess that was the real bug. Glad it's fixed.

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Yes, maybe that is the true bug but I think either way the parenthesis are arranged is valid. I forget why I changed it.

I also found another null pointer error that I had to add to pluginDebug...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

You can compare pluginDebug to master to see differences. Can be done online at github web site.

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Håkan,

Thanks for the report. I don't know why my pluginDebug build fixes the problem for your friend. It was only designed to tell us what plugin is causing the issue. I think Dave or Pavel...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Hakan,

The way I found the hung dialog box was using Windows 10. If I position the mouse over the O icon on the task bar and wait it shows a miniature screen shot of O. If i leave the mouse there...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Update:

I added a log message to see what O doesn't like about the S63 plugin. This is the code snippet of the extra log message in PlugInManager::CheckPluginCompatibility()


if...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

I tested this and can pretty much duplicate the problem reported by others. Here is what I found so far:

1) The S63 plugin is "incompatible" with 4.8.0 and O correctly detects this when navigating...

Hakan,

Could you tell which plugin was causing the freeze?

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

It should be enough to tell us exactly which plugin is causing the fault. But be aware that the try/catch system is only there to tell us about the fault. It cannot correct the fault after the plugin...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

I added a try/catch handler to the pluginDebug branch of my O fork. It will not solve the problem but it will log any plugin that throws a runtime exception during the load process. It will also...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Yes, O tries to examine several details of the DLL structure to make sure it looks like a real plugin. If any of these tests fail then it will act as if the plugin is in the "blacklist". We suspect...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Hakan,

If you are going to answer NO to the load plugin query then you have to do that twice for enabled plugins. The first time it asks when O starts answer NO to all of them. Then there should...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Dave,

I "almost" have it reproduced in a debug setup. But every time I think I have it cornered and switch to a Release build then O does the right thing every time. But I am getting closer. Still...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

For this issue it matters not where the dll is found. I think there are some plugins that put the dll down a folder. There is nothing wrong with that in itself. In fact, it could be considered a good...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

I think it does not matter where the "bad" plugin is found. It can be in "plugins" or some sub-folder.

Robin,

Please let not your heart be troubled. This has nothing to do with you. I appreciate you bringing the problem to us.

plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Hakan,

Can you find a way to get the offending subdirectories zipped up and send them to me? If so, send a PM as to best way to send them to me.

I will investigate what happened and may be able...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

Ok, that's enough of you acting like some kind of petulant child. If you disparage me again I will definitely report you to the moderators for "being not nice".

The message emanates from this code...

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

I checked the code and it seems that O does indeed drill down into subfolders looking for *_pi.dll files.

Re: plug ins not showing in 4.80, one one laptop, work on another?

I will check. But the code searches for plugins using a wild card search. It may look at subfolders. It's just a suggestion to have a look.

The locale changes the words based on the PO files. It is not a Microsoft generated message. It comes directly from the OpenCPN source code.
