GetPlugins()

Post by djrikki »

HelpFile and Settings never seem to initialise, if they are in fact empty they should return "".

Having some difficulties returning FileTypes too, says they aren't initialised, please can you show by example how I can returning information about e.g. the TIFF module. Useful to see what 'Names' are returned and what 'Extensions' are supported.

The "Settings" and "HelpFile" are currently only initialized if the plugin defines them. But you're right, this is a bug because the documentation states that they'll always be set. I'll fix this.

Concerning the file types problem: This isn't a bug in GetPlugins() but the reason why this currently doesn't work is that most plugins currently don't set this. I still have to update the plugins to support this. A plugin that already supports it is avcodec.hwp. Check the "FileTypes" table with the avcodec plugin and you should see how this works.

Thank you for your reply.

I suspected that was the case with the FileTypes table - I will try with Avcodec as suggested.
