External tools info

Hi, It *seems* I lost external tools definitions when switching to 10.2 (I am not 100% sure though.) Where are those info stored? So I could check this is really a problem from the switch, or to ease to find my old tools and reconfigure them... Regards, -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/

Hello, In versions 10.x they are stored in the entry with the key external.tool.cmds in the file [user-home-folder]/Application Data/com.oxygenxml/oxyOptionsSa10.x.xml (that is oxyOptionsSa10.2.xml, oxyOptionsSa10.1.xml, etc): <entry> <String xml:space="preserve">external.tool.cmds</String> ... I just tested the switch from 10.1 to 10.2 and the external tools are preserved correctly. From what version did you switch to 10.2? Regards, Sorin Florent Georges wrote:

From 10.1 too, on Win XP SP3. I've checked oxyOptionsSa10.1.xml and oxyOptionsSa10.2.xml and the former has my tool while not the later (at least with a simple full-text search.) Would that help you if I sent those files in private? Regards, -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/

Hi Florent, One thing you can try, and that may be useful if you did not made changes to the 10.2 options, is: 1. Move the *10.2.xml option files in some folder, and start oXygen 10.2. 2. Check if your external tools are available. 3. If you do not get the external tools or if you have defined already other 10.2 options then restore your option files saved at step 1 to get them back. If you can send the old options files sure, that helps, as we can try to see if we can reproduce these issues with them. The address that can be used is the support at oxygenxml.com or you can send them directly to me or to Sorin.

Thanks George! When I did that, oXygen provided my with my original tools, and saved a new *10.2.xml option file when I stopped it. Not sure what happen, I guess I mixed up something during the install. Thanks for the great help! -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/
