Bug? New IDE (3.00 Beta 1) - Error loading ini file.

[LWGShane]

I'm receiving an error when launching B4J. The error reads ["An error occurred" new-line "Error loading ini".] After the error occurs, the usual "This program has stopped working" dialog pops up.

The error happens so fast I didn't realize that there was indeed an error. I had to use HyperCam to actually see the error.

Which Windows version are you using? Is this a VM?

Which Windows version are you using? Is this a VM?

Windows 8.1 and it's running natively on an ASUS laptop.

Please try the following steps:
- Create a folder named c:\temp
- Run B4J from the command line: B4J -log

A file named log.txt should be created after you run B4J. Please upload this file.

I have the same problem.
After running the IDE the first time it worked, I played a bit with it.
Since the second run I get:
An error occurred
Error loading ini

I use Windows 7.

Attached the log file.
I needed to zip it because the log.txt file is too big.
I sent you the log.txt file by e-mail.

I've uploaded a new version (beta 2). Please try it:
www.b4x.com/b4j/files/beta.exe

It should work even if the IDE fails to load the old ini file.

It shows the error message but works, allways full screen.

It shows the same error after you close and then open the IDE again, right?

Can you send me the three files (or two) that located under: C:\Users\<change to your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Anywhere Software\B4J ?

Yes.

Here they are.
Three files:
b4aV0.1.ini
b4xV5.ini
layoutV0.1.xml

Thank you. Now I see the cause of this problem.

I will later today upload a new version that will fix it.

Beta 3 is now available. It should fix this issue. Do note that the error will still appear when you first open the IDE because the problem was in the code that writes the ini file.

Close the IDE and open it and it should work properly.

It's OK now !
Thank you.

This is an awesome community! Thanks for fixing this problem, the new IDE (awesome) is now usable again.

Thank you. I now see it. It is an obfuscation related bug. I will soon upload a new beta.

@Erel
This is relating to the Library Pane: I have external libraries I use and in the Library Pane, there are dupes of the external libraries.

Ex: ByteConverter has a dupe named ".ByteConverter". (note the bolded period)

@WhiteholeSoft please start a new thread and if possible post a screenshot of this.
