If you don't want to wait, you can post some feature requests for IDE too.
All these features are cross-platform and can be added easily in the IDE.

I got this error too. Here's how to make it work (tested only on XP SP3 32 bit):

1. Create a folder called "EditorPlugin" in the PB install folder (e.g. "C:\Program Files\PureBasic"). Extract the plugin files in it.

2. Create an empty text file on your desktop and rename it to "PB.reg". Then right click on it and select "Edit". In that notepad window copy/paste this code:

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\PureBasic.exe]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\PureBasic.exe\DefaultIcon]
@="C:\\Program Files\\PureBasic\\PureBasic.exe,1"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\PureBasic.exe\shell]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\PureBasic.exe\shell\open]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\PureBasic.exe\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\PureBasic\\PureBasic.exe\" \"%1\" /P \"C:\\Documents and Settings\\USERNAME\\Application Data\\PureBasic\\PureBasic.prefs\" /T \"C:\\Documents and Settings\\USERNAME\\Application Data\\PureBasic\\Templates.prefs\" /A \"C:\\Documents and Settings\\USERNAME\\Application Data\\PureBasic\\Tools.prefs\""
Change the "USERNAME" to reflect your user name and the PB paths (if applicable) in this file then save it and execute it.

3. Go to "C:\Program Files\PureBasic\EditorPlugin" and execute "PureEditorExtension.exe". It should now see the path, install normally.

Lemme know if it works :D.

We shouldn't have to manually alter our registries to install a program.

If he created this tool for PureBasic, then he should have it so it supports PureBasic, no matter what version.


Is this tool officially dead now?

Yeah, I stopped the development.
The plugin works but its auto-installer is broken because of registry modification.
You have to install it manually.

How about releasing the source, for further development by people who would like to see this continue?

I wonder if it would be more interesting to code a new IDE for PB 4.0
I tried to upgrade the JAPBE code but it's too long.

Is ther anyone, who stil has the tool working?

If you could post the properties from "Tools | configure", would be great!
I've configured the tools manually one time, but lost the properties (commandline arguments, ...) due to broken OS. :(

Thanks!

Ok,
for those who are still working with the tool (like me):

When Setup fails it is still no problem to have it running. All you have to do is manually configure PureFormatter.

I usually have two "modes":
  • Formatting triggered by the user:
    • [1] Go to "Tools | configure tools" and press the "New"-Button.

      [2] Add PureFormatter (select the path) and use -f as argument for the tool.

      [3] Check "wait until tool ends"

      [4] Event for triggering the tool "menu or shortcut"

      [5] Define a shortcut you like...
  • Formatting triggered automatically:
    • [1] Same as above, add the tool, but:

      [2] use -auto as argument for the tool

      [3] use "editor start" as event for triggering the tool.

      [4] Check "wait until tool ends"
Works fine here for me.

Hope my translation is ok for all of you to read and that this may help a little to those who still use this fantastic tool.

Amazing work!
One of the most useful tools.
Too bad you stopped the development. :cry:
