Title: FortranProject silently fails to load
Post by: ptDev on July 01, 2012, 06:23:51 pm

Ever since I updated my local copy to revision 8080, FortranProject still compiles correctly, but no longer loads.
What's more, Code::Blocks does not even complain with the usual "one or more plugins could not be loaded".
Any idea of what might cause this?

Did you install the plugin after you compiled it?

After a full clean and rebuild, it became clear to me that unlike most contrib plugins, FortranProject is not automatically copied under the devel folder postbuild (which is normal, considering it's an external source tree). I was launching Code::Blocks with a newer SDK than one the existing plugin was built for.

Once I manually copied the needed files over, FortranProject loaded correctly.

Still, shouldn't Code::Blocks issue a warning when it finds obsolete plugins?

If the SDK versions have not been changed, there is no way to issue a warning...

I such situations you may try to run C::B with the "-v" switch to see some more information.

BTW: The SDK version did change recently, isn't it?
