New Release 7.3.2

David Bailey

Don,

I wonder if you have a plan to go over to supporting just the 64-bit version, or whether you intend to support both indefinitely. One reason I ask, is that I have a small public plugin - “Named bookmarks”, which is currently available in 32 bits, but I would convert it to 64 bits, if I knew that the 32-bit product was going to become obsolete.

Of course, my reluctance to support two versions is as nothing compared with yours, and I am a bit surprised you want the extra work of supporting two versions.

@David-Bailey
Please make your Named bookmarks plugin 64-bits. No need to say that It will be the future 64-bit world.

Isn’t building under 32-bit (x86) and under 64-bit (x64) just a question of compiler’s options once the source code is clean and good enough to be compiled under both the platforms? Personally I don’t treat the support of the both as “extra work” - for me it rather means: “to keep the code clean and good enough”, thus satisfying both 32-bit and 64-bit compilation.

Vitaliy Dovgan,

What you say is probably largely true, but in a way you have simply defined the extra work as “keep the code clean and good enough”! I mean nobody is likely to propose moving to 128 bits - at least in this century - so IMHO there is little point in continuing to maintain 32/64 bit code indefinitely - now that almost all PC’s are 64-bit capable, and those that aren’t could still run a frozen 32-bit version.

Hi @David-Bailey ,

I agree with @Vitaliy-Dovgan because not all plugins will eventually get ported to x64 (not all of them are still maintained). So it would be nice to keep the x86 version just in case somebody needs it.

updating to 7.3.2 - I have a zero length doLocalConf.xml in my c:\program files(x86)\Notepad++ directory and check the local config file option on the installer page yet the config.xml in the “program files(x86)” is ignored and the debug is as below.

Notepad++ v7.3.2 (32-bit)
Build time : Feb 12 2017 - 23:15:39
Path : C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
Admin mode : OFF
Local Conf mode : OFF
OS : Windows 10 (64-bit)
Plugins : ComparePlugin.dll HTMLTag_unicode.dll JSMinNPP.dll mimeTools.dll NppConverter.dll NppExport.dll NppFTP.dll NppTextFX.dll NppXmlTreeviewPlugin.dll PluginManager.dll PoorMansTSqlFormatterNppPlugin.dll regrexplace.dll Tidy2.dll XMLTools.dll

Also the plugin manager keeps listing Npp Xml Treeview as Installed 1.3.0.45, Available 1.4.0.45 but when I “update” (even when elevated to admin) the update goes through the motions included wanting to restarted notepad++ but the plugin version does not update and the plugin is still listed on the Updates tab as before.

Smart highlighting now does not stop at close params or other end characters like quotes, bracers, and brackets. Reverted to NPP 7.3.1 as a workaround.

Example:
Double click the bolded text in 7.3.2:
foreach my $row (@$bank_tran_codes_ref) {

It will highlight bank_tran_codes_ref)

It is supposed to only highlight bank_tran_codes_refPlease Thanks for NPP - life would not be the same without it.

@miaXcova Please disregard and delete my above post. I reinstalled 7.3.2 and can no longer duplicate the above issue I poorly demonstrated. Apologies - was probably something to do with settings.
