Bad handling of error "Unable to load Eroiica plugin"
Posted: 02 Jul 2013, 11:43
Hi,
as a developer, I understand the technical difficulties with 64-bit transition when dealing with 3rd party components. Fortunately I do not use Eroiica (well, WinSCP is another story but it is not subject of this report). However the way how Altap Salamander handles the error when a plug-in can not be loaded, causes big pain for me.
It is enough to move mouse cursor over the "Plug-ins >> Eroiica" menu item and the error that the plug-in cannot be loaded is displayed, closing the menu as a side effect. I guess it is because Salamander tries to retrieve the sub-menu items from the plug-in DLL. But this behavior makes using the menu very difficult. Please remove the "Eroiica" plug-in menu item from x64 build, make it disabled (gray) or whatever. But in any case: Do not display an error message box when user is moving with a mouse.
(Using x64 build of beta 3 on Windows 7)
Best regards,
Martin
