The tool only downloads the archive, so my remark is still valid, you have to extract the files anyway

Of course, it could be interesting for the other users. Thanks !

Maybe some data in project options is invalid in a manifest, like '1.2.3.4.5' as product version (should be '1.2.3.4') ?
I could make it optional, what do you think ?
Do you know what sanity check(s) should be made ?

@gnozal: good to know that. I've rewritten all version infos - and it works.
Please pardon me..

Update

Changes :
- ProductName, ProductVersion, CompanyName and FileDescription import in the manifest is now optional.
See 'Add to manifest' checkbox in Project options [Version tab]. I also added a basic sanity check.
- manual updated

gnozal,

Something I noticed from my earlier post about japbe stuttering a little bit. I had to do some coding on my work laptop and it had absolutely no problems with the code and never stuttered at all. I used the same version of japbe and PB. The funny thing is that the laptop is underpowered compared to my work computer. Well, underpowered and running Windows 2000 (rather than XP on the desktop).

I'll dig around a little to see if I can find something that might be causing this. Should be computer related rather than japbe related since I get different results on three different machines.

Weird stuff !

When I open jaPBE, go to Help/About, press the big link to PureBasic, let it load in my browser, then go back to jaPBe and press OK, I get a Fatal Error! Every time.

same here

I will simply deactivate it in the next release.
PS : please use the jaPBe thread next time, thanks.

Update

Changes :
- inactivated the crashing custom-hover-url-image-button thingie in the 'About' dialog

hi.

im having some probs in japbe. occasionally while typing, the editor area flickers. i dont know what triggers it while typing, but the flickering always occur while saving. whenever i save (ctl-s, save button,file save), the editor area flashes for a bit. also after saving, the first keypress (except arrow keys, page keys, fkeys) will trigger another flash.

btw im using this on a low end sytem (nec versa lx, p2-400 mhz 128 mb, ati 3d rage agp2x video, nlite'd xp sp2). im using a dark blue background on the editor window so the flicker is easy to notice (pb ide does not have any probs.)

Do you have 'Always redraw window' enabled in preferences ?
If not, I don't know how to help. I also use jaPBe on low end PC's [NT4 - PII-300MHz - 64Mb RAM !] and I don't notice flickering.

i have always redraw off. tried it enabled does not make a difference. i also turned off all other editor options too (auto, color, etc) and still the same. i tried it with a blank source and it still flickers, when for example going through the menus.

i loaded calc and move it around in the foreground and saw that the whole window (editor, toolbar and status windows) flickers when calc moved. it seems like it happens when the area is is trying to repaint or somthing. so instead of repainting only the invalid rect, the whole window is redrawn instead?

Update

Changes :
- fixed a bug in SynchLists
- improved syntax coloring [I hope ...] ; fixed some coloring bugs, should be faster with big sources.
