Installing Samples Dialog....

[Lindon]

OK so I got around to trying this... and no no no no no NO NO! surely I have this wrong and I'm making some silly mistake in implementing this -----

As far as I can see I can have:

1. both buttons: (dont put anything in the extra definitions..)

2. Just the locate button: (put HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_INSTALL_BUTTON=0 in the extra definitions)

3. Have no buttons and no dialog at all: (put HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_LOCATE_BUTTON=0 in the extra definitions)

• Anyone see my dilemma?

I have a bunch of users who are getting confused when there are two buttons on show - they keep pressing the LOCATE button when I want them to press the INSTALL button - this generates a bunch of support calls.....

So I want to be able to show them just the INSTALL button...and that's not an option listed above...

I've tried a bunch of things e.g.:

HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_INSTALL_BUTTON=1
HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_LOCATE_BUTTON=0

but I cant get anything to do what I need, someone please please tell me I'm making a silly mistake and its not been implemented this way?

@Lindon said in Installing Samples Dialog....:

HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_INSTALL_BUTTON=1
HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_LOCATE_BUTTON=0

I thought that would work, I'll test it later.

[d.healey]

Yep, it doesn't work. I'll take a look in the source and see if it's something I can fix

[d.healey]

Fixed it - https://github.com/davidhealey/HISE/tree/develop

[Lindon]

@d-healey well done - thanks.. I take it now I can say:

HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_INSTALL_BUTTON=1
HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_LOCATE_BUTTON=0

to get what Im looking for...?

[d.healey]

@Lindon Yeah.

[Lindon]

@d-healey great thanks mate you're a life saver....

When these are set both to zero and open the plugin, it creates a generic link in the app data folder. Is there anyway not for that linkWindows file to be created?

[coreyu21]

@coreyu21 self-made issue. Disregard

[Lindon]

@d-healey -- sorry Dave - no go, just tried it :

HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_INSTALL_BUTTON=1
HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_LOCATE_BUTTON=0

--and I get no sample install interface showing up...

and the LinkWindows has this in it:

C:\Users\Lindon\Documents\Channel Robot\Atmosia2\Samples

I put these preprocess statements in the windows and mac areas...

[d.healey]

Works for me. Did you clear out old intermediate files before building? And any old config files?

[Lindon]

@d-healey well I only know to remove this folder completely...:

C:\Users\Lindon\AppData\Roaming\Channel Robot\Atmosia2

..which I did...

Is there something in the HISE build I need to remove?

[ustk]

@Lindon The "Builds" folder itself

[d.healey]

Delete everything in the project's Binaries folder.

[Lindon]

@d-healey Nope that made no differnce...

So I deleted everything from the Binaries folder, removed the

C:/User/Lindon/AppData/Roaming/Channel Robot/Atmosia2 folder

put this in the Extra Definitions Windows section of the preferences

HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_INSTALL_BUTTON=1
HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_LOCATE_BUTTON=0

Compiled the stand alone.
Started the stand alone

• It asked me (correctly) for my serial number...
• gave it my serial number
• and it opened into the interface bypassing the sample load process...

Interestingly(or not)

when I say this:

HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_INSTALL_BUTTON=1

-- I get BOTH buttons (which I think is probably correct)

when I say this

HISE_SAMPLE_DIALOG_SHOW_LOCATE_BUTTON=0

-- I get nothing at all (which I think is also wrong..)

[d.healey]

Did you recompile HISE? It sounds like the issue from the old version, before I added my fix.

[Lindon]

@d-healey yep I did that this morning... and I'm pretty sure Im using your version:

[d.healey]

@Lindon said in Installing Samples Dialog....:

I'm pretty sure Im using your version:

We better check that.

Look in hi_backend/backend/ProjectTemplate.cpp and see if this line is in there HI_ENABLE_LEGACY_CPU_SUPPORT=%LEGACY_CPU_SUPPORT%\

[Lindon]

@d-healey yep its there:

<CONFIGURATION name="Debug" isDebug="1" optimisation="1" linkTimeOptimisation="0"\r\n"
" targetName="%NAME%" defines="USE_IPP=%USE_IPP% HI_ENABLE_LEGACY_CPU_SUPPORT=%LEGACY_CPU_SUPPORT%" headerPath="%IPP_HEADER%" libraryPath="%IPP_LIBRARY%"/>\r\n"
" <CONFIGURATION name="Release" isDebug="0" optimisation="3" linkTimeOptimisation="1"\r\n"
" targetName="%NAME%" defines="USE_IPP=%USE_IPP% HI_ENABLE_LEGACY_CPU_SUPPORT=%LEGACY_CPU_SUPPORT%" headerPath="%IPP_HEADER%" libraryPath="%IPP_LIBRARY%"/>\r\n"
" </CONFIGURATIONS>\r\n"

[d.healey]

@Lindon Well I'm not sure why it's not working. I'm testing on my GNU/Linux machine so it could be an OS difference. I'll test on my Windows machine later today.
