Some issues in PM v2.00
Posted: 07 May 2011 21:03
Hi,
I saw some PM related problems in v2.00:
in the PM v2.00:
1. when starting up the PM the tooltip is always shown, even after unchecking it.
2. libraries with only the .mpas file present (no .mcl) are not taken up in the package (they are at least not visible in the IDE's lib manager)
3. Talking of missing .mcl files: the keys "Rebuild all MCL's" and "Rebuild missing MCL's" seem to do nothing. One of them shows a dos screen with a lot of output, but there are no .mcl's added to the package at hand after it finishes.
The other one performs no action at all it seems.
4. For unclear reasons: more than once (so, on a fairly regular basis) an "Error in application". I did send a few reports to mE.
5. Refuses to install a package if the first lib in it has no .mcl file (seen once, not investigated further if this is actually true, anyway deleting that first lib solved the problem: the package could be installed).
6. After deleting a library: no PIC types (filter) view any more.
in the mP IDE:
7. After uninstall of a package in the lib manager all libraries of the current project are unchecked. Ok again after "refresh" in the lib manager.
8. Wrong libraries are shown (P16 libraries in a P18 project and vice versa) in the lib manager. In my case I had a package with all P16 libs, and one with only P18 libs. Sometimes the same lib names were present in both.
9. Sometimes "Uninstall package" works only after a 2nd or third try.
10. Seen again: 2 packages removed in stead of the selected one only.
p.s. srdjan: the IDE remarks were seen using the new mpPic.exe file you sent me (thanks by the way ).
