Girder 3.1.0 beta 17, the last one,.... really!

[Ron]

As the subject says this should be the last beta. If there are no more show-stopper bugs this is really the last one. The reason for doing 1 more beta is that I now completely removed the old register handling code and stepped over to the new method. You can read all about it here (http://www.girder.nl/help/gettingstarted/registers.php)

The Variable Manipulation script supports just about any operator I could think of, including the stuff requested by MarkF.

Who is going to be the first one to ask why he can't assign a number to a double ? :grin: ( hint, check the type of the number that you are assigning )

[Ron]

MMcM, oops I'll correct that right away. And the payload stuff was moved to Payload#, I'll change it back.

The resolution thing has changed it parameters to be much more flexible. Didn't you notice the popup giving you an example ? You imitate that with you desired settings and everything i'll work just fine.

I just updated the Treeview to the newest version, Thanks to Victor of ImcaSys for the kind update. I'll see if this still has this behaviour.

(update:)
Okay not, this new treeview has even more strangness than the old. This tree will be replaced at some point by something that does work consistently, but for now we'll have to do with it.

I've released Girder 3.1.0beta17b with the fixes for the register problems reported by Mike.

I didn't say I got around to fixing this one yet :smile: The scripting stuff took all of the time.

[Ron]

Hmm, OnGirderClose does crash the plugin, but OnGirderOpen I cannot (yet) see the problem.

[Ron]

Can you give some more details ?

Exactly when does it go wrong ? ( btw I've seen the Time server do more strange things )

[Ron]

Can you send me an example .gml file ? As simple as possible please :smile:

[Ron]

Okay found it, releasing an update to the client in a few minutes.

You're welcome :wink:

OK, last night i was trying to figure out why the ievent client was crashing girder on startup, so i was opening, saving and closing girder alot. And by about the tenth time girder took about a minuit to load using 90% cpu and about 133Mb of mem, then i gave up and went to bed. this morning i get the error 'cannot load datafile'.

This is with b17 and the dreaded XP. I'll see if i can get it to happen again.

I was starting to suspect that the problem with ieventc.dll was if it was used right after loading girder, bt i am not sure about that.

[jediperry]

got it :smile:. its when it is triggered by the time server. Is that because it hasn't been updated yet? I can always change it to use the alarm timer plugin i suppose.

ok, I have a multigroup with the ieventc command in. The eventstring for the multigroup is the alarm timer with an 'every n second' trigger.

So the event happens as soon as girder loads adn crashes with an error:
AppName: girder.exe AppVer: 3.1.0.17 ModName: ieventc.dll
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 0000112f

If i let this run after girder has loaded, it seems to work fine, or if i disable the ip command.

Excelent, thanks Ron. Thats working fine now.

The Set Text Reg built-in Girder action now sets a variable named reg# instead of one named treg#. Was this an intentional change?

The pld# special variables do not appear to be bound when actions are called. Try putting [pld1] in an OSD; it expands to nothing.

beta 17 is looking great.
One thing I noticed: When you collapse a node, the selection doesn't end up where it should be. IE, if I have 5 entries in a node and the 5th entry is selected, after the node is collapsed the 5th item down on the tree list is selected instead of the collapsed node being selected as would make sense. Am I clear? Also, the selection doesn't stay on the same item when you collapse a node above the current selection: the selection stays the same distance down from the top of the tree instead of shifting up with the rest of the nodes and keeping the same item selected.

The resolution changer function works in 3.0.25 but in 3.1.17 the options for selecting resolutions are greyed out. The function comes up with "error incorrect number of parameters". My conversion worked fine and I even tried creating a new command.
:sad:

I'm still getting NASTY access violations with the Redrat plugin (software part seems to trigger) when I try enabling it.
When I first enable the software part I get 'Plugin Error' and then anything else plugin related I do gives me an access violation (or two...).
Eg. Attempting to close Girder.

Sorry Ron! Just wasn't sure whether you'd looked at it or not :smile:
