Extenders not Showing up in Compiler List
Keywords: EXT DAT files
Question:
I'm trying to compile in the Searcher extender, but it's not showing up in the Compiler list. My script
works fine uncompiled.
Answer:
NOTE: Starting in WinBatch 2001A, the Compiler .DAT file extensions were changed to .EXT file extensions,
since some applications like to drop .DAT files in the Winbatch directory (!!??!!)
- Make sure the format of the WSRCH.EXT (or WSRCH34I.DAT in older versions) file is:
File Searcher Extender (wsrch34i.dll
wsrch34i.dll
witzsrch.dll
- Make sure the WSRCH.EXT(WSRCH34I.DAT), WSRCH34I.DLL, and WITZSRCH.DLL files are all in the \Winbatch\System
subdirectory.
- In pre-2001 versions make sure you don't have any "stray" *.DAT files around in the
\Winbatch\System subdirectory that are DAT files UNRELATED to Winbatch, and which
might have a different file format. If these exist, then the Compiler will not be
able to see the Searcher extender's DAT file, and this would apply to the other
special-purpose WIL extenders as well.
