3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Hi Jan, I have both PictView-Plugin (licensed) and the Eroica plugin installed.
Could you enlighten me what exactly will happen when Eroica-Viewer will no longer be installed?
What's going to happen in Salamander 3.05 ff. when pressing F3 - as I was used to do for decades?
Which file formats will no longer be accessible?
parallax69software.com is down.
Thanks a lot.
Rainer

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Very sad
I'm missing especially the F3-quickview for PDF-files.

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
I can't say those are sad news - Eroiica viewer still had not even started to support 2007 Office files, and it used to display most PDF and XPS files in a wrong way.
I recommend using ULister for *.docx and more than 500 (!) other file formats, and SLister for *.pdf, *.xps and *.djvu - they are much better than Eroiica, and they work fine with x64 version of Salamander (via tcproxy plugin, of course).

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Very good. I installed the uLister. It shows PDF-files quite fast.
Could you please post your list of extensions you’ve associated with the plugin?

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Well, I prefer Slister for viewing PDF files - it is somewhat better as it is based on SumatraPDF. It is configured to show *.pdf;*.xps;*.djvu;*.djv;*.epub;*.epu for me.
As for Ulister - as I said there are 500 formats it can show, that's too much to list here I think I just edited Salamander to show everything that used to belong to Eroiica with Ulister (minus *.pdf - and plus *.docx;*.pptx;*.xlsx) - but you can add more it you need.

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Hi Yuri,
I have installed ulister (4.0.0) via tcproxy (x86) in Salamander 3.04 (32 bit) and associated, for a test, pdf, doc and txt.
But I keep receiving the following error message, although the plugin is tested o.k.:
"Outside ln dlls not found in plugin dir. See readme.txt, install section."
Which dlls is the message refering to? Any help?
Thanks.

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Did you install Outside In Viewer Technology? (See ULister's readme.txt)
Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Yes, I had downloaded the 32bit version of Oracle Viewer Tech . 8.5.1 and copied the generated \redist - directory to Salamander plugins as a new directory.
Same error as mentioned before.
What am I missing? Any ini or inf to configure?

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
The redist folder needs to be in the same folder as ulister.wlx and tcproxy.spl
Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Got it. The contents of the \redist folder (not the folder itself) needs to be in \tcproxy + ulister.wlx.
Many thanks.
Rainer
Many thanks.

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Well, for me it actually looks like this:
The redist folder is directly copied over from the downloaded .zip, so it contains the actual files, no more subfolders.
If it did not work for you this way, there might have been an access problem. But I'm glad you figured out a way to make it work for you.
And this is a working installation on Win7 x64 with AS 2.54 (x86).The redist folder is directly copied over from the downloaded .zip, so it contains the actual files, no more subfolders.

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
Yes, I also have the \redist folder (and not its contents) in the plugin directory with tcproxy.spl and ulister.wlx64.
It is strange that it did not work the default way.

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
You are right. I removed the contents of \redist and recopied the folder itself.
Don't know why it didn't work in the first place, but now it did.
Thanks again.

Re: 3.05 upgrade and Eroica viewer
I have installed the uList 4 plugin from TotalCommander and it's not working properly. I do have the "redist" folder from Oracle in the plugins folder; should it be in the uList folder or in the plugins folder itself? I have it in both and the plugin doesn't work. Running 3.05 x64. Thanks.
