Doesn't appear to work in x64 at all.

Ah, odd. I thought the "Any CPU" target took care of both x64 and x86 processors. I'll see what i can do, send me your msn so i can send you some ones to test if you'd like (i've got a 64bit processor but only 32bit XP at the minute)

It didn't work at all for me on my Windows XP machine, I just got an "application has stopped working and needs to close" error. I'll look into it later to try find out why.

On my Vista installation it worked, and it looks good so far, although I find the "are you sure you want to close this tab" message kinda annoying (especially when you have a few open tabs and then try exit, meaning you have to click through a few message boxes before it actually quits) :P

I've had this problem a few times :P If your app is it's reading any Messenger Plus! registry key (and I assume it will be), you'll need to set it to x86 mode. Any CPU means that on an 64-bit version of Windows, registry calls will read from the 64-bit area in the registry, whereas Plus! always saves its settings in the x86 area.
;p

Take a look in the options box, you can disable it.

I'll work on this!

Bug (see attachment). Visual Studio output window:

quote:
The program '[856] Messenger Plus - Development Environment.exe: Managed' has exited with code -1073741819 (0xc0000005).

I'm on Windows Vista x64 SP 1. The app crashes immediately upon starting; no window is shown at all.

Make sure you are running the .Net 3.5 SP1 framework.

Disable the Close Tab Confirmation in the options.


On a side note I can't get it to run at all on Vista Business 32Bit. Does it rely on having MP!L installed? If so that explains it as this is my work computer.

Suggestion:
Extend the intellisense feature. What exactly do I mean by this? What I mean is with Javascript we can create our own classes:

Javascript code:
var hello = function () {}
hello.prototype = {
    "world" : function () { Debug.Trace ( 'hello world ' );
}
 
var h = new hello();
h.world();


It would be nice to have a full list of these class functions. Also much like with the VB6 IDE if you type var h = new it would populate a list of classes then each function/parameter when you try to access it. I think this would be a nice added feature.

Yeah it does rely (at the minute) on MP!L being installed. And yes matty that is something i have previously thought about but i wont be working on anything new until i get these current errors ironed out :(

Anyone with 64bit versions of XP/Vista/7 give me your email so i can give you a test version :)

I've (hopefully) fixed the OS problem and i've fixed a problem with some files not opening.

To Do:
Fix open scrip dialog
Fix the folding strategy for code (not a priority)

Hopefully that's all the bugs for now sorted.
