Can I make C::B portable?

<< < (6/7) > >>

Pecan:
DragScroll and KeyBinder get their conf directory with the following.


--- Code: ---    //memorize the key file name as {%HOME%}\cbKeyBinder+{vers}.ini
    m_sKeyFilename = ConfigManager::GetConfigFolder();

--- End code ---

KeyBinder looks to merge dynamic menu keys to its .ini file every 15 seconds,
backs up the .ini to .ini.bak and writes the new merged .ini file.

I don't see the problem, but I can only test this after November.

Squeller:
Thanks, Pecan. The timer behaviour explains, why I wasn't easily able to reproduce it. OK. I've moved all my config files to c::b dir again; looks like it's solved... I'll test more thoroughly later the day,,,

Squeller:
Pecan, you're right. I have disabled both plugins and c::b is now fully portable without any problems afaics. I've worked 2 hrs. without a problem with it.

stahta01:
The setup of ConfigManager::GetConfigFolder() variable ConfigManager::config_folder in the method ConfigManager::InitPaths() needs work to make it portable.

PS: I trying to write a small patch to make ConfigManager::GetConfigFolder portable right now.

Hi.
I've tested the steps with cb_20070101_rev3446_win32 and borland's bcc55.

I extracted the file, started cb and wanted to disable DragScroll and Keyboard shortcuts plugin. After a click on disable button codeblocks crashs. Then i started it again and this time i could disable it. The same with the other plugin.

After that i copied content of %appdata%\codeblocks\ to my codeblocks folder and configured relative paths by using $(codeblocks). Now i have running a portable version.  :D

Just want you to inform about the crash and give a little summary.
