Hi, I
have made a Google Suggest plugin. It query's Google just like the
Google Toolbar and returns suggestions and checks your spelling. Type gs and your query. Example:  Sincerely Jens Peter Grosen

jpgrosen, i think you are using vitalyb's C# sdk..
others
were having trouble getting that to work on some windows machines,
including myself -- i think it may have to do with beign built with the
latest .net runtimes required, instead of a more conservative build?
ive
gotten 2 reports that the farr google suggest plugin isnt loading, and
this is what happened for me with vitaly until he uploaded a new build.
vitaly can you share with jpg how to build this for better compatibility?

What is happening. Is there an exception or just nothing? Can you see the plugin in the "Configure Plugins dialog"? I
am using Vitalyb's SDK but it should target .NET 2.0. Are you using the
FARRAltTab plugin? (Which was build with the first release of the SDK) Sincererly Jens Peter Grosen

sorry i probably should not have been the one posting this bug report, since it works like a charm for me  maybe the problem people didnt even have .net2 installed. i'll let them post about their problem -- i think it just wasn't showing in the plugin list.

Correct,
I don't see it in my plugin list. I've added the files to a
"FARRGoogleSuggest" subfolder of my plugins folder. Restarting
FARR doesn't get it to recognise and neither did the manual scan from
the FARR options dialog. Please let me know if I can provide
further information. Thanks.

The lib is indeed using 2.0, and I presume Vitalyb's to be doing the same. Sadly,
user side support for .NET is patchy at best, mainly due to Microsoft
not pushing it upon people. Most people will have 1/1.1, some will have
2.0 and only devs will likely have 3.x. Looking at the
refactored code it would appear that the library would need a total
rewrite to bring it down to 1/1.1 standard, no fun at all: I would
instead suggest that the .NET wrapper should use the Visual Studio
deploy magic to install .NET 2 if it is not found. .NET 2.0 framework: http://www.microsoft.com/...5E04F5&displaylang=en(Be sure to check Windows Update for patches etc) PhilKC

You have placed it correctly. Can you use any of the other .NET plugins FARRAltTab, FARRTunes, FARREnviormentVariables? /JP

What I did is create a "FARRGoogleSuggest" directory in C:\Program Files\FindAndRunRobot\Plugins and then I extracted your archive in there. Farr didn't seem to detect the plugin. I restarted it. Still nothing...

Yes, FARRAltTab works. Would you like me to try the others?

Hey
jpgrosen. What did you compile it with? I had a problem with mouser
with FARRTunes when I compiled it under VS2008, still not sure why.
Recompiling it under VS2005 solved it.

now
that you guys (both google suggest c# and javascript fscript) have
mastered web page grabbing, how much longer till we get 2 holy grail
plugins: 1) rss fetcher w search ability 2) generic web page regex parser (let user configure web page to grab and how to parse it into items with regex) in
both cases one extra complication is that it would be nice for a user
to be able configure multiple sources which could be selected. e.g.: frss dc keywords.. where the first thing after the rss is the label telling the rss plugin which configured rss to grab from. (just typing rss might list the known rss feeds). how nice would that be  in
the second case, it would be similar, so that you could configure it to
grab a page and display result(s) either as a list or in richedit mode. this could be used to grab almost anything from a web page (weather, news, etc).

unfortunately neither this nor FARRAltTab works for me with NET 1,2, & 3 (just added both to correct folders in plugins folder and restarted FARR after each)
other plugins work these two dont show when I type "aplugins" - I'm not that familiar with FARR plugins in general but dont think I'm doing anything wrong..

Hi,
I have recompiled the plugin with the latest SDK and VS 2005. Please see if it makes a difference. I have updated the first post in this thread with the new plugin.

Yes it is. And it is even scarier than for some people it doesn't work with VS2005 too.

other plugins work these two dont show when I type "aplugins" - I'm not that familiar with FARR plugins in general but dont think I'm doing anything wrong.. KlipKeeper, FarrFox, PrinterList, and FarrUninstall are the only plugins I've used so far, but they all work

Tomas I'll talk to you privately then. We'll try a few things.
I'm afraid it could be a problem. Can you PM me your email?

Perhaps because VS2008 defaults to using .NET 3.5 (3 != 3.5) (See Project -> Properties -> Target Framework)?

Nope. I compiled it specifically targeted at .NET 2.
I *think* it is something to do with C++ DLLs.

I had a similar problem but the recompiled version of plugin is now working.  However,
the plugin only shows up in the Options --> Find and Run Robot
Plugins ---> Click to Examine and Configure Plugins ---> Plugin
Manager view. It doesn't show up in the DC Updater window.
