[Bug] Compare by content & nested archives with dirs

[XPEHOPE3KA]

Open the deeper archive in the nested archive in one panel. Enter a directory in it (it's a must to reproduce the bug!).
An example: enter tc655pb2.exe->INSTALL.CAB->WINDOWS

Select any file there (i.e. UC.PIF). Then go to the other panel & select any file there. The other panel should remain active! Now press a key for compare by content command.

I get a window, where there is a hex view of the file from the other panel & there's NO hex view of the file from that nested archive.

Well, if I don't select anything (and both file have the same name), then the hotkey works well - both files are visible in CBC window.
If I make the panel with that dir from the nested archive (with described selection) than again, the hotkey works well & both files are shown in CBC window.

Don't confirm. The very first comparison you described is performed well, without any trouble. TC 6.55pb2, WinXP SP2.

Check it carefully
P.S.: I have TC6.55pb2, WXP SP2 Pro Rus. Same as you AFAIK.

Sorry, the screenies are in Russian, but it shouldn't make misunderstanding.

I looked at your screens - yes, I have absolutely the same "pre-situation", but Compare by Content window shows both files well (I can make screens too, but I don't think it is really needed).
The only difference is the TEMP folder: I have reassigned it into D:\Windows\Temp\ (D: is my system drive).

Please, make pre-screen too. I won't believe until I see it

Try it please with the nested archive on some other disk (not D). Maybe that is the reason.
At my screenshot temp folder is on C, while the file compared is on D.

That can't be the reason - here tc655pb2.exe is on e: and TEMP is on drive F:, and I don't get this problem...

What's the content of your TEMP variable?

[XPEHOPE3KA]

TEMP=%USERPROFILE%/Local Settings/Temp

Yes, I've checked it: active panel disk has no matter at my place. Same bug encounters.

[ghisler(Author)]

It could be the environment variable, or an extremely long path.
Try this please:
1. Create path c:\temp
2. Open a cmd.exe window
3. type the following commands and press enter:
set TEMP=c:\temp
set TMP=c:\temp
4. Run Totalcmd.exe from this cmd box.

-> does it work now?

[XPEHOPE3KA]

No, it still doesn't work. And still doesn't depend on drives.

He probably think about this

it doesn't depend on drives.

NOTE: Rapidshare may change extension to html. Change it back to sqx

2majkinetor !
So you confirm?

[majkinetor !]

No... I just posted the screenshot for a joke.
I also hacked TC to produce this error, just for fun...

Did you download video yourself to see, youngster ?

[XPEHOPE3KA]

2majkinetor !
Yes, of course. It wasn't hard to download 100 kb archive, oldie.
How did you hack TC?
