Help to porting SourceCookifier for 64bit

but that would bring me into a position which I don’t really like,
namely doing some kind of maintenance - it is not really python :-D -

upload and publish your sourcecookifier x64 unicode test build. eg at your github repo (binary only)

Why bin only? One presumes the (source) code fork is already there. And there are plenty of “dead” forks around (so why would you feel obligated to do maintenance).
-
but if you upload something and offer a solution you will be automatically
the primary person to contact if something doesn’t work as expected as you have
provided that plugin/source code. -
Ha. Nah. All you did was fork something and play around with it. Plenty of examples of people doing that on github. Only if you go so far as to take real ownership do you get into the situation you talk about. :)
-
Agree - that’s what I’ve been doing with un-maintained N++ plugins. Fork, it improve for me and post if others want it. I don’t plan on trying to include it in the nppPluginList which I think would be the real “taking ownership” thing.

Well, you could go that far if you wanted to, and (I’d say) if you got the original author’s permission…but it is up to you.
Downside to not doing this: How would others know about the existence of these plugins (the “column” one especially I look forward to trying out).

@Ekopalypse What version of the Microsoft SDK are you using to compile? Is it version 7? What version of Visual Studio Community?
I’m using VS Comm 2017 and version 10 of the SDK (v10.0A). I’m getting weird errors and overflows when trying to run the successfully build DLL in N++. Wondering if the supplied DLL in DLLExport are geared for an older version of Visual Studio and / or SDK?
-
More troubling, the same set of tools / versions on Windows 7 actually works for me - my successful build actually runs in N++ without crashing it. But copy that good DLL to Windows 10 and save errors. I wonder if there’s a redistributable that I have on Windows 7 and not on 10? I just don’t know/ understand C#.
-
Yes, I’m using Win7 as well and I was using VS 2017 community edition and SDK 7.
Unfortunately I don’t have Win10 - so cannot confirm your findings. -

Could anyone try port the SourceCookifier plugin for the 64-bit version of Notepad ++?
Seems the (perhaps) original author finally got around to it:
