July 8, 2018: New SciTE4AutoIt3 available with the updated SciTE v4.1.0 release

[Jos]

7/8/2018: Uploaded a new SciTe4AutoIt3.exe v18.708.1148.0 installer.

It has been over a year since the last update of the full SciTE4AutoIt3 installer whch mainly had to do with the fact that Neil was moving toward v4 of SciTE and I wanted to wait for a stable version.

Any help with testing this version before general release is appreciated.
Also any feedback is welcome in caseI missed something or suggestions for improvement before releasing.

==> SciTE4AutoIt3 v18.708.1148.0

Enjoy,
Jos

*** Merged the SciTE v 4.1.0 by Neil Hodgson with our own version of SciTE. (Jos)
    This is a major change from the previous version so ensure you update all files including LUA or else you will get errors!
    - SciLexer au3: Fixed issues with nested CommentBlocks not always showing the correct color.
    - SciLexer au3: Change any line starting with # and no recognised keyword to be shown with the Pre-Processor in stead of default.
    - Changed Shortcut for AU3INFO to Ctrl+Shift+F6.
    - Moved the session restore logic for (save.session.advanced=1)into SciTE in stead of LoadSession.lua as that was clearing the recent files list of the last session
      when opening a file by double cliking it. This is fixed with this change.
      Default remains 0 so when a file is double clicked the last session isn't restored unless you add this to SciTEuser.properties:
      "save.session.advanced=1"
    - updated Tools.lua replacing [s%] with [ /t] to avoid empty lines being stripped by those functions. (Thanks Enyby)
    *** Updated AutoIt3Wrapper v18.708.1148.0 (Jos)
    - 17.224.935.1 Added /autoit3dir to au3stripper commandline, when provided to AutoIt3Wrapper., to ensure the included files are for the correct AutoIt3 directory
    - 17.224.935.2 Added directives:
         #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_CompanyName=          ;Company field
         #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_LegalTrademarks=      ;Trademark field
    - 17.224.935.5 Fixed Versioning when files contain backets ->  ()

    - 17.224.935.11 Modifications from JPM:
        - add #AutpIt3Wrapper_Res_Cursor_Add

    - 17.224.935.2 Changed /rsln to replace @ScriptLineNumber in the Master script with "XXX/YYY". XXX is the master script linenumber, YYY is the Merged script linenumber.
    - 17.224.935.3 Fixed issue detecting #cs #ce when a space was missing after the directive.
    - 17.224.935.4 Changed Close/Open logic for Tracelog to (hopefully) avoid the hardcrash.
    - 17.224.935.5 improved speed avoiding rereading include files to determine the max rec len.
    - 17.224.935.6 improved speed by re-coding the check for long records.

    - 17.224.935.10 Fixed support for #autoit3wrapper_autoit3dir when followed by linecomment
                    Stop processing when include file isn't found.

Hello,

On Windows 10 I have to change the FINDSTR command in the SciTEGlobal.properties file else searching within subdirectories does not return results.

E.g., I have to change: 
find.command=findstr /N /S /I /R "$(find.what)" "$(find.files)"

To:
find.command=findstr /n /s /I /C:"$(find.what)" "$(find.files)"

Is it just me?

 

[Jos]

The /R is to make it search for a regular expression, which allows for much more option in the search text. 
What is the search text you search for that isn't working?

Aha! It's clearly an issue with use of findstr (probably not a defect in findstr either).

The text I tried to search for has a path e.g., "#AutoIt3Wrapper_Icon=..\Include\NewIcon.ico". If I search for "NewIcon.ico" or "\NewIcon.ico", it works fine in recursing the folders during search (with /R). But if I search for "\Include\NewIcon.ico" or "\Include\" it does not. It's the extra backslash in the string and it seems to affect findstr when using /R and not /C.

Try:

Yes, that works. Thanks!

 

[Jos]

it is up to you whether you prefer the literal string option or the regex, but I am planning to leave the current as default if that doesn't case big issuesas that gives much broader options for searching in files.

Thanks for the feedback.

I will leave the default as I do not have to search many times for things like the include file names or the icon directive, it was only that I have a new icon today and at the same time found the new SciTE package is available.

Using the defaults where possible will prevent me from not remembering why I changed things later. This I have learned the hard way.

[careca]

After i updated SciTe i got these 2 messages when i tried to run (F5) a script.

EDIT: Reverted to SciTE4AutoIt3 v17.224.935.0 and the problem is gone, so i assume it's something in the new version, but it might be something else, as i don't see anyone else complaining about this..

[Jos]

Those lines weren't changed between those releases, so it seems your new version is corrupted?
Maybe an AntiVirus is interfering or something?
Could you PM me the new AutoIt3Wrapper version you have to doublecheck?

Hi Jos

Thanks for the update.

There is one problem: Alt+L doesn't work anymore. I have updated two AI3 dev environments on two Windows installations, one Win 7 and one win 10 and in both cases it's the same problem with Alt+L. If I press Alt+L then it opens only a very small windows but without any list, see attachment.

I updated both environments from AI3 3.3.14.2 and Scite 3.7.3 to AI3 3.3.14.5 and Scite 4.1.0.

 

[Jos]

Looks like this is due to a patch that was proposed around the release of the latest version.

Try changing line 24 in AutoitTools.lua back to:

self.Pattern = "()[%s][Ff][Uu][Nn][Cc][%s]+([%w%s_]*%(.-%))"

I need some more time to investigate but this should fix it for the moment.

Jos

also uploaded a fixed AutoitTools.lua to beta.

@Jos

Yes, your workaround works as intended. Thank you.

This is one of the most used functions for me. Just wondering that I'm the first who reported that. ^^

Interesting. I tested this and it did not work?

[Jos]

Did you reload SciTE?

Jos

[ModemJunki]

Just now, Jos said:

Jos

Yes, I closed and restarted it.

[Jos]

Then I don't know.
What exactly did you do? Change the line or update the file?
What is happening in your case when doing Alt+L?

Jos

[ModemJunki]

What is happening is the same as what LukeWCS posted here.

I tried first to edit the file and change the line, then I downloaded the one from beta - same result.

[Jos]

Not sure what is happening for you.
Maybe we need to start with checking the Virtual store to see if there is a AutoitTools.lua  there that is screwing things up:
C:\Users\..........\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\SciTE\Lua

I don't find a virtual store at all.

Using software "everything" I find only one copy of AutoITTools.lua on my system (Windows 10 1703 build 15063.1206).
