right click "Open with" procedure in Windows (XP) not working (minor issue) #26

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Right click on a .go file
2. Select the "openwith" option to bring up the dialog
3. Browse for the liteide executable in ./liteide/bin
4. Select it 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

what happens - Doesn't work - nothing happens - isn't added to list - file 
doesn't open (generally no error message produced either)

expected - Expect the file to be opened with liteide, and "liteide" added to 
the list of programs in the "open with" dialog box

Comments:
:result - nothing happens - liteide not added to the list of programs
::Liteide works under all other conditions I have tried. 
::Drag and drop of a .go file onto liteide executable works.
::Manually setting through "Folder options>>File Types>>(.go 
files)>>advanced>>edit" makes a .go file open with liteide if required
::Appears that modifying the file name from "liteide.exe" to "liteide.exe.exe" 
- suggests XP is not recognising filetype under certain conditions ?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Both hg575 and hg538 have this issue
32bit x86 Windows XP SP3

Please provide any additional information below.

"open with" dialog with .go files generally works - even when forcing into 
incompatible programs. Suspect it is an XP problem but not seen this issue 
before in any form

:(other - irrelevent to problem) liteide version 575 doesn't have the icon 
association added for the liteide application. Just thought I would point that 
out while I am here)

Clarify error - see comment "Manually setting through "Folder options>>File 
Types>>.." - this doesn't work either - liteide is opened, but the file is not 
opened. Drag and drop does work.
