I installed 2019R2.1 and chilkatsoft components even installed in plugins directory where not found anymore.
Is the process done in a way that Xojo releases a new version and plugin developers have to rebuild there stuff and then step by step everything gets levelled up to new version?
Chilkat is found in autocomplete but when compiling it is not found…
Each version of Xojo you have installed on your machine will have it’s own Plugin folder.
Depending on the changes to Xojo, many of the Plugins don’t necessarily need updates from the Plugin developers. But some will, depending on the nature of the changes.
Hopefully you can just copy the Plugins you have working with your current version of Xojo to the new version and you’re good to go. But do a complete shutdown of Xojo first, before adding or removing Plugins for the IDE to notice the change.
Did uninstall previous versions, reinstalled 2019R2.1, made several OS restarts -> no way!
None of the plugins work; not MBS or OfficeAutomation (Chilkat was the first error shown)
Reinstalled also 2019R2 and am I lucky this finally works!
Checked the license as I am behind a proxy, but license shown was correct after every install.
All the time I was aware of it must be something stupid; but finally did not find anything.
So, at the moment have still to use 2019R2.
Anyway, thanks a lot for any hint and tip given!!!
Can you test with only the chilkat.xojo_plugin ?
(moves the other plugins outside of that folder, in a brand new one created for the test)
When done, quit and reboot Xojo 19r2.1.
Sub copyFileC(ReqJ as Chilkat.JsonObject, ResJ as Chilkat.JsonObject)
There’s two missing a in JasonObject above (a typo ?)
Ok, I put the MBS plugins into folder and now the little test does not work anymore giving the chilkat error.
Christian, of course I do use not components for 2019R2.1 assuming those don’t yet exist.
As Scott said, depending on the components some run some do not.
So, I will wait until the components for 2019R2.1 MBS are out and test those.
As I need all of those installed MBS components, no reason for me to find out if one or all “fail”.
At the end I was lead to another error but also learned a lot.
Why did I not try the one by one plugin tests before, some of you may ask?
Because that was to easy… sorry…
