Entrian Source Search 1.8.4: Fixes for High DPI displays and more

Sunday, July 3rd, 2022 by Richie Hindle

I’m pleased to announce the release of Entrian Source Search 1.8.4, which fixes these bugs with High DPI displays:

  • Paint the incremental search text and the Partial Results warning in the right place on High DPI monitors. Thanks, Joe and Brett.
  • Scale the busy spinner with the DPI.
  • The Search box no longer gets too narrow. Thanks, Juan.
  • The tab control is now always the full width of the window.
  • The Welcome dialog no longer has layout glitches. Thanks, Brett.
  • The initial hint that suggests docking the window no longer has layout glitches. Thanks, Brett.

…and fixes these other bugs:

  • Don’t crash when loading a missing / empty / corrupt search history file. Thanks, Ian.
  • Fixed occasional “Package did not load correctly” errors under Visual Studio 2022.

…and adds these features :

  • Added Ctrl+Shift+F4 shortcut to close all tabs. Thanks, Jenson.
  • Added an ‘Open All Files in Visual Studio’ command to the results list context menu. Thanks, Eddie.

You can download this new release from the download page or from the Visual Studio Marketplace.

Entrian Source Search 1.8.3: Various fixes and features

Tuesday, February 15th, 2022 by Richie Hindle

I’m very pleased to announce the release of Entrian Source Search 1.8.3, which adds these features to the command line program ess.exe:

  • The returned errorlevel is now more sensible:
    • 0 for success; for the search command an errorlevel of 0 means that some results were found.
    • 1 for a search with no errors but no results.
    • 2 for errors.
  • Errors are now written to stderr rather than stdout
  • There is now a -showcount switch, which prints the number of hits at the end of the results.

The Visual Studio extension has one new feature:

  • The context menu for the results list has new command “Copy list of all filenames (without duplicates)”.

And some bugs have been squashed:

  • When loading a solution in Visual Studio 2022, Source Search now correctly loads your index every time, rather than sometimes failing and telling you there’s no index loaded.
  • Source files in UTF-8 with no BOM are now much more reliably detected; by default Source Search asks Windows to detect the encoding, and it often gets it wrong for UTF-8 files.
  • When Windows says that a file is ASCII-encoded, Source Search now treats it as codepage 1252. If it really is ASCII then that makes no difference, and if Windows has got it wrong (which does happen) and it’s not UTF-8 then codepage 1252 is the most likely encoding.
  • Source files containing Zero Width Space (U+200B) codepoints no longer crash or highlight the wrong words in the results list.

Entrian Source Search 1.7.21: Various features and fixes

Friday, April 2nd, 2021 by Richie Hindle

I’m very pleased to announce Entrian Source Search 1.7.21, which includes these fixes and features:

  • Alt+Delete in the Search box now deletes any filters and leaves the plain query. Thanks, Eddie.
  • Syntax colouring for search results in SQL files. Thanks, Darker.
  • You can now add directory names, filenames, and file extensions to the exclusion lists from the search results context menu. Thanks, Jason.
  • In the Manage Indexes dialog, you can now filter the index list by root directory.
  • When the autocomplete list is visible and has a selected item, the Tab key completes that item but doesn’t trigger a search. Thanks, Nicholas.
  • An unexpected exception when showing the Source Search crash dialog can no longer take down Visual Studio. Thanks, Eddie.
  • Fix for CompletionStatusChanged crash when processing file system watcher events.
  • Fix for rare timing-related ArgumentOutOfRangeException crash.

You can download this new release from the download page or from the Visual Studio Marketplace.

Entrian Source Search 1.7.20: Better compatibility with mixed-DPI environments

Saturday, April 11th, 2020 by Richie Hindle

I’m pleased to announce Entrian Source Search 1.7.20, with these fixes and features:

  • Lots of problems fixed with multi-screen mixed-DPI environments, which for some reason seem to have become very popular in recent weeks… Thanks to lots of people who have sent bug reports for this.
  • If you run out of disk space during indexing, you’re now prompted to retry, so you can clear some space and carry on.
  • When you lock a tab, the Search box now gets a grey background to make it visibly obvious that it’s locked. Thanks, Jools.
  • Various obscure crash bugs fixed.

You can download this new release from the download page or from the Visual Studio Marketplace.

Entrian Source Search 1.7.19: Various bugfixes

Sunday, August 11th, 2019 by Richie Hindle

I’m pleased to announce Entrian Source Search 1.7.19, which fixes four bugs:

  • Keystrokes in the Search box now always go to the Search box, rather than sometimes going to the current source file. Thanks, Hao, Daniel, and Avraham.
  • Opening a Markdown file from the Source Search search results now works when you have Mads Kristensen’s Markdown Editor extension installed. Thanks, Kuo.
  • Pressing Escape now reliably returns focus from the Source Search query box to the active document; previously you sometimes had to press Escape twice. Thanks, Mark.
  • After you open a solution and Source Search restores its tabs, if you run a search and then open a new tab, your search is now properly stored in the history. Thanks, Jools.

You can download this new release from the download page or from the Visual Studio Marketplace.

Entrian Source Search 1.7.18: Now works with .NET Framework 4.8 in Visual Studio 2019

Monday, May 27th, 2019 by Richie Hindle

I’m relieved to announce Entrian Source Search 1.7.18, which, when running under .NET Framework 4.8 within Visual Studio 2019, no longer appears as either a blank rectangle or an entertainingly transparent rectangle, through which you can see your desktop.  Thanks, Mark, Martin, and Morten.

Available for download from here or in the Visual Studio Marketplace.

Please note that the Source Search tool window won’t appear where you last left it, the first time you see it after the upgrade.  It’s effectively a new window as far as Visual Studio is concerned, so it will appear in a default place and you’ll need to dock it again.

Full support for Visual Studio 2019

Monday, April 1st, 2019 by Richie Hindle

I’m pleased to announce new versions of Entrian Source Search, Entrian Attach, and Entrian Inline Watch, all of which now fully support Visual Studio 2019.

Full support for Visual Studio 2019 means that all three extensions use background loading, so they won’t necessarily load as soon as Visual Studio loads, or as soon as your solution loads.  They will load as soon as you trigger one of their commands, but otherwise there can be a few seconds’ delay, before Source Search starts indexing, or before Attach will attach to newly started processes.  Neither you nor I get any control over this, I’m afraid.

As well as support for Visual Studio 2019, these releases include the following fixes and features:

Entrian Source Search:

  • You can no longer close a locked tab; you need to unlock it first.  Thanks, Mary.
  • Closing a tab that was restored from a previous session now closes the correct tab rather than some other one.  Thanks, Marius.
  • Fixed a crash when you start a search, right-click in the results before they update, then click a menu command after they update.  Thanks, Jools.
  • Fixed a bogus occasional ‘Error saving settings; Retry?’ message.  Thanks Brett.

Entrian Attach:

  • No longer fails to work if you have a file called ‘C:\Program’ on your C drive.  Don’t do that, by the way.
  • Installation now works properly if you have an instance of Visual Studio that only includes the build tools, as well as a full instance.  Thanks, Vlad.

 

Here are the new releases:

Entrian Source Search 1.7.17: DownloadMarketplace

Entrian Attach 1.4.7: DownloadMarketplace

Entrian Inline Watch 1.0.10: DownloadMarketplace

 

Support for Visual Studio 2019

Wednesday, February 6th, 2019 by Richie Hindle

I’m pleased to announce new versions of Entrian Source Search, Entrian Attach, and Entrian Inline Watch, all of which work with Visual Studio 2019 Preview.

These versions are not yet optimised for Visual Studio 2019, so they may cause deprecation warnings.  There’ll be new versions available before the final release of VS 2019 that will fix those warnings.

Entrian Source Search 1.7.16: Download / Marketplace

Entrian Attach 1.4.6: DownloadMarketplace

Entrian Inline Watch 1.0.9: Download / Marketplace
