It'd be cool if you could do something similar in your scripts (grep.exe doesn't need to be in the GTK runtime directory, as long as will result in the Geany bin installation directory at the end). And I updated the Geany release.py linked in the Wiki with a 'git pull' command in the geany-themes repository.

Re: [Geany-Devel] Windows installer snapshots with GTK 2.24
Hi Jiří, I've built new Windows installers from current GIT master. [..] Any feedback is welcome. Hi Enrico, seems to be working fine here. One idea: wouldn't it be good to package the grep binary to the installer (and if possible somehow set the preferences to the location where it was installed) so find in files works out of the box? Right now the message you get when trying to use find in files is: great idea! Will be included in the next installer, it's just 79kB. Luckily, and if I don't miss anything, we don't need to set any paths because the default path for grep is just grep and when grep.exe is in the bin/ directory next to Geany.exe, it should work out of the box. search_find_in_files: spawn_with_callbacks() failed: CreateProcess() failed: The system cannot find the file specified. which isn't the most user-friendly message and I guess many people will interpret it as find in files doesn't work on Windows. True. I guess we can improve the error message but maybe better after 1.25 to not bother the translators too much by breaking the string freeze :).

But that's my personal problem not having the balls on Windows changes :). Its more the intelligence to learn from past mistakes :) Cheers Lex Regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.asc ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel

Hi Enrico, seems to be working fine here. One idea: wouldn't it be good to package the grep binary to the installer (and if possible somehow set the preferences to the location where it was installed) so find in files works out of the box? Right now the message you get when trying to use find in files is: great idea! Will be included in the next installer, it's just 79kB. Luckily, and if I don't miss anything, we don't need to set any paths because the default path for grep is just grep and when grep.exe is in the bin/ directory next to Geany.exe, it should work out of the box. Just tried the latest installer and works great, thanks! Cool it wasn't necessary to modify the config file when installing. search_find_in_files: spawn_with_callbacks() failed: CreateProcess() failed: The system cannot find the file specified. which isn't the most user-friendly message and I guess many people will interpret it as find in files doesn't work on Windows. True. I guess we can improve the error message but maybe better after 1.25 to not bother the translators too much by breaking the string freeze :). I have just created a bug report here https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/541 It can wait for the next release especially as grep works now.

Hi, just for the records: - some icons are missing/not displayed correctly I never really noticed, but I have this problem too. the icon issues would be fixed by commit https://github.com/techee/geany/commit/7880c0fc123da98ffa0881f84c93714c60526ac6 of https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/396 Regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.asc signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel

Hi Thanks for the updated installer. I noticed two issues so far which I have not yet debugged yet: - auto completion popup is rendered incorrectly Working here on Windows 7 64Bit SP1 Prof. - some icons are missing/not displayed correctly Verified, as seen on the screenshot for Geany 1.25 (git = 5a243fd) build Cheers, Frank ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel

Any insight on how it should be fixed? (or rather, please fix it! ;) I just fixed it in 5a243f :). Waf don't use win32-config.h (because it dynamically creates a proper config.h also on Windows). So I defined the two macros directly in wscript so they get written into the config.h on Windows. It seems these macros are necessary on older Mingw environments, at least this is my guess. On my Windows 7 system with a fresh Mingw environment from the Strawberry Perl distribution, I don't need to define those. For the Geany nightly builds I had to define those but these are cross-compiled against an old Mingw version.

[Geany-Devel] Windows installer snapshots with GTK 2.24
Hi, I've built new Windows installers from current GIT master against a GTK 2.24 development environment and the GTK 2.24 runtime environment is also included in the full installer. This is a preparation step for future releases which should be shipped with a recent GTK runtime on Windows. Downloads can be found here: http://download.geany.org/snapshots/ Please note that these are test builds from the current development version, don't expect release quality. You have been warned :). But after you installed the snapshots, you can also use the nightly builds again on Windows (i.e. copy the archive contents over the installation). I noticed two issues so far which I have not yet debugged yet: - auto completion popup is rendered incorrectly - some icons are missing/not displayed correctly Screenshots for both issues are attached. The icon problem seems to be somewhat related to g_themed_icon_new() but I'm not yet sure. I just had a quick look at the code. @Lex: somewhere you said you used Geany with the GTK 2.24 runtime in the past. Did you notice the icon problem?
