Plugin install location issue

[roentgen]

This plugin tries to install in "%COMMANDER_PATH%\plugins\Tools\OOView"

Am I missing something?

Also had an issue with another plugin (I don't remember which) but I thought I just did something wrong.

Tested with TC 7.01 - clean ini. TC 6.56 seems OK.

Not confirmed.

This happens when you have a WLX file in your tools directory. TC checks disk (edited: not wincmd.ini) for the first WLX file it finds and then assumes that it has found the right directory.

Hmm...

I had c:\TotalCMD\Plugins\Tools\TCThemes\TCTheme_viewer.wlx
Since when? Since the last undiscovered bug...

It seems that if I copy a .wlx file to

Code: Select all

c:\TotalCMD\Plugins\ICO\TCTheme_viewer.wlx

TC offers to install plugins directly in C:\TotalCMD\plugins\

I wonder what's the purpose of

Code: Select all

[Configuration]
PluginBaseDir=%COMMANDER_PATH%\Plugins

PluginBaseDir is not plugin type specific, that's the problem. So, TC uses WLX, WFX, etc... in this basedir only if it doesn't find another location by examining the INI file.

INI entries like PluginBaseDirWLX, PluginBaseDirWFX, ToolsBaseDir, etc... would solve these annoying problems. Requested but ignored, as usual.

by examining the INI file

Most of my tests were done with a clean ini. TC seems to be searching the hard drive

Yeah, I confused that, also in the past, sorry:
