Error closing PL/SQL Developer

[cmj]

Since installing version 7.1.1.1350 yesterday, each time I close PL/SQL Developer, it appears to close then one of those Microsoft windows pops up:

"PL/SQL Developer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

And it asks if I want to send the error report to Microsoft. I'm running Windows XP.

Does anyone else have this problem?

I seem to be getting that error more with v7.1 that I was with 7.0 and before. However, it's still sporadic and I've never been able to pin it down to anything specific.

Since installing version 7.1.1.1350 yesterday...

Is the problem specific to this version? Or does it happen with the standard 7.1.1.1339 version as well?

@cmj

I do have another error message when closing PLD while having one or more windows open, but I found out that it all boils down to the wList plug-in. Are you using that one by any chance? If so, disable it and see if the problem persists.

Hi,

the wlist-plugin also crashes PL/SQL Developer 7.1 whenever I try to access HTML documentation.

Look at http://www.allroundautomations.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=3;t=004087

I've mailed it in May 2007 to softema.com but there is no answer.

I am using wlist. I disabled it by unchecking it in Tools, Configure Plug-Ins. The problem indeed went away.

What a pity! I find wlist really handy.

Are you sure you have the most recent wList version? I use here and I have no problem closing PLSD.
I did have a problem with HTML help, though, but i went away when I checked the "Use Internal HTML Viewer" option in PLSD (Marco's tip from another thread).

 

[Theod]

Yes you are rigth,

but the Google-Search-Plugin from emberiza need the external HTML-Viewer.

So you can't have both. Either the HTML-Help works or the Google-Search.

 

[cmj]

Yes, I double-checked. I have v2.6 of wlist. I downloaded it and installed it and the problem came back.

Since I installed 7.1.1.1350 I'm getting this error too, when closing PLD.

Does anybody know how to solve this? Because I like to use wList.

BTW, it happens only when using wList plugin and having a window open (like Marco van der Linden mentioned earlier).

 

[Marco Kalter]

Unfortunately we have to disable the wList Plug-In for 7.1.2, and it has been removed from the Plug-Ins page.

 

[Gustavo]

Do you intend to add its functionality to PLSD, as you did with AutoReplace?

 

[Marco Kalter]

We can consider this. Which functionality do you need?

 

[Gustavo]

I don't usually resort the buttons within the list, but I'll miss the color by window type.

 

[Bo Pedersen]

My primary use of wList is the reordering functionality. And secondarily the coloring.

[Gustavo]

This leaves resizing out.

So, Marco, would that be feasible?

Regards,
Gustavo

I have added this to the list of enhancement requests. Note that reordering is already possible. Just drag & drop an item in the list.

I have been using wList since PL/SQL Developer 6, so I didn't notice (or remember) that reordering is implemented as standard now. So I second colouring and the shorter names in the window list.
