File Explorer and Shell Extension Plugin

<< < (2/4) > >>

Ok. I have built all CB, contributed plugins and shell extension plugin successfully :-)

Now I see Files tab at Management panel.
But unfortunately I have no access to TortoiseSVN commands integrated to windows shell from the tab :-( And I see no TortoiseSVN decoration icons :-(

Do I forget to do something?

Thank you

Hi lexis,

the file explorer supports SVN decorators. Select the context menu View->SVN decorators. If you want to use a graphical interface for SVN like TortoiseSVN oder gsvn (Linux) you just have to add some shell extensions for doing that. In the manual http://www.codeblocks.org/user-manual you will find all information how to integrate TortoiseSVN commands in the section "File Explorer and Shell Extension Plugin".

Bye,

Mario

lexis:
thank you for the link to manual. It is useful but it has no way to change behavior of the menu according to real context. I thinked before that there is a possibility to handle a real shell menu which is apperred in MS Explorer... Unfortunately I understand that it is not implemented :-(

And I had tried to use the context menu "View->SVN decorators" but it doesn't affect anything in Files tab :-(

the svn command has to be in your path. the implementation of the file explorer was a hasty bit of hacking on my part and still needs lots of enhancements. as you say, I haven't tried to implement the windows explorer shell menu as that will require windows specific code, which is a low priority for me (not to say I won't ever do it)

EDIT: I should ask - what are you trying to do that you need full windows explorer functionality within codeblocks? Personally, I find the inability to control the context menu of windows explorer a frustration, which is why I designed the plugin the way I did.

lexis:
There is no a special need to handle an explorer menu. It is only a way to get a different menu behavior for a different file context.
For an example different menu items for checked out files and for common files as in the explorer menu.

Really your plugin already has resolved most of my needs.
