7z plugin outdated?
Posted: 03 Aug 2014, 12:19
Hello,
I tried to decompress this archive:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w ... z/download
But the plugin in AS 3.02 was unable to do so. I then tried to decompress on command with 7za.exe version 9.13 and it failed too. I was only able to decompress
it after I downloaded newer 7-zip (9.22 beta). It would probably be good to update 7z version used in the plugin as the above is prove that there is some incompatibility
in 7z and archives created with newer versions already circulate on the net.
EDIT: And on that matter it would be great for similar diagnostics in the future if you can make version of 7z used visible somewhere, e.g. in some detail screen of plugin manager.
The same for other plugins which are likely just wrappers gluing altap and some 3rd party code like (de)archivers or some VFS plugin.
Regards,
Martin
