BETA: SciTE v5x & lua Dynamic_include and "Smart" AutoComplete for Vars/UDFs/Abbrevs

[donnyh13]

I took some screenshots of "Additional Information" ... not sure if it will help.

I also clicked Debug, and this came up.

MSVCP140.dll

This dll seems to be the problem file mentioned in my crash too....

[donnyh13]

That seems to have fixed it @argumentum, thank you!

I installed two windows updates also (KB3035126;KB3126587), but they were just security updates., I'm thinking it was the VC_Redis.

Thanks for the update @Jos, Scite seems much quicker now.

Edit: My display issues seems gone too, the ones I had to set technology to 0 for.... Not sure which thing fixed it now.... 🤔

Edit2: Tried the Old Scite and my Display issue is still gone. VC_redist must have fixed it also. 🙄

Not yet.

So I guess it all points to an invalid/old/wrong MSVCP140.dll file, so restored the 2 downloads for others to test as well.

Just uploaded SciTEx86.zip & SciTEx64.zip which contain the Latest SciTE 5.5.2 versions released today.

I have a futuristic intel 15900KYZ processor running Windows 3000+ enterprise but some people run older hardware and software.
Will the installer, once released, check for the libraries version and refuse to install unless updated ? Can that be done ?
Note: I watch too much TV and my questions may be silly

Is already in there since 2021, so we have had issues with the missing msvcp140.dll before, but not with an invalid one as far as I remember:

System::Call 'KERNEL32::LoadLibrary(t "$SysDir\msvcp140.dll")p.r0'

Thanks again Jos, I am quite happy with the new feature to Ctrl Click in order to remove a multi selection cursor in this new version, but I was just curious if there is a setting to allow us to Ctrl+click-drag to copy a selection again? Or was Neil unable to have both? I didn't see one in the settings list, unless I missed it. Or perhaps this is a question for the Scite forum?

Thanks

[Jos]

Guess thats one for Neil as i have no idea about that stuff and would have to start digging into it first.

[donnyh13]

Okay, I found it. Sorry.

Ctrl-click on a selection deselects it in multiple selection mode. This interferes with Ctrl-drag to copy text but that can be worked around by starting a drag with no modifier keys then pressing Ctrl during the drag.

I just had a look at the https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/download/beta_SciTE4AutoIt3/SciTE5-with-DynamicFunctions/ folder.

What is the correct way to get the latest beta/alpha for testing?

• Download SciTE4AutoIt3_Portable.zip dated 2024-01-04 09:26
• Download SciTEx64.zip/SciTEx86.zip dated 2024-08-23 07:36

Is there anything else more recent or recommended?

I am getting an error when I try to edit a .au3

I did uninstall SciTE first.

I did remove all remaining files in the SciTE folder.

I installed Beta version SciTE v 5.4.0.

I still had the error.

I installed MicrosoftVisual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015vc_redist.x86.exe

It said it couldn't because there was a newer one installed.

I uninstalled Microsoft Visual C++2015-2022 Redistributable Version_VC_redist.x86.exe

and the 64bit version.

I reinstalled MicrosoftVisual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015vc_redist.x86.exe

and the 64bit version.

I rebooted.

I'm still getting the same error.

I'm running Windows 10 Pro 64bit.

Maybe @donnyh13 can share which version he installed to fix his setup and see if that also works for you. I am still unsure why this happens and is hard to debug when it doesn't happen to me. 

[donnyh13]

@Docfxit, I installed the VC_Redist linked by argumentum on the previous page.

Thank you for the reply...

I installed both of the files as Administrator.

I'm still getting the same error.

Would you mind checking to see if you have the same files in:

Are you running Windows Pro 64bit?  I am.

Maybe I'm not running the latest version of SciTE?

and that version on my PC is not from "C:\Windows\System32\msvcp140.dll", is from "C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\iclsclient.inf_amd64_fc84dfa25a6a7727\lib\msvcp140.dll"

Why ?, how?, .. no clue.
( PC with the old SciTE, I forgot what virtual PC I tested the new beta on )

I can confirm I have the same files listed. Plus a few others from from version 14.29 and one file from 14.10.

I am running Windows 7, 64bit.

Your Scite, Lexilla and Scintilla are older files I see. They should have the date of: 8/21/2024

The installer will have the old version, you will have to replace those with the single Scite, Lexilla and Scintilla files from the Scite x86/x64 here: https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/download/beta_SciTE4AutoIt3/SciTE5-with-DynamicFunctions/

Thank you for the update.

I have updated SciTE per your links.

I can't run this.

ConsoleWrite(FileGetVersion("msvcp140.dll") & @CRLF)

It needs a console.  And of course that's what I can't run.

I'm going to try to take a dump and see if that will shed some light on it.
