AVG is choking on this

Its not the first thing AVG has chocked on. Is it the Install its complaining about or the actual application?

Do you have an alternative AV, I use Kaspersky and it has no issue with it

[hadv215]

I think it's the install. After a quarter of an hour (!) it decides that is OK after all.....
Basically I both love and hate AV programs. My provider gives me a free version of F-Secure but it does not allow delphi to work. I've tried others but everyone has something I don't like.
Up to now AVG has given me the least problems

Two very minor points

D_Pbp#Var0 = Pbp#Var0

should be blue (I'm using standard colours) and I note that the 64 bit version installs into Program Files (86x)

George
I am guessing you are saying that D_Pbp and Pbp are identifiers to an array, so what you are saying is that I am not recognising the format for addressing arrays using the # syntax.
I can replicate it, its a fault in my regular expression for arrays, I can't see an instant fix but I will look at it further .

I am installing in the ProtonIDE folder by request from Les, I search for the ProtonIDE folder and place it in there.

Edit: I have the solution - if its not too urgent I will wait till I have further changes and issue an update.

Hi John,

Just tried Proton Studio for the first time. Just few points

The install ICON stayed on the Windows toolbar after installation completed. Right click on the ICON brings up 'Close Window' but clicking on that nothing happens, it will probably go after a reboot.

I loaded an existing code but the highlighter and background colours were all black, easily fixed from Tools of course.

The code explorer pane is empty. Most of my existing projects start with an INC file that has all of the generic stuff that I need for a particular device such as

$define _LCD_PORT_ 1                    ' LCD PortA = 0, PortB = 1, PortC = 2
Include "18F25K22 IntOsc 16.inc"        ' setup LCD etc.
'Include "18F25K22 Intosc 64.inc"

So I tried starting a new project but still the same.

I am using W7 32

It sounds like the installation didn't complete properly. Tried it here again on my PC and it went fine but I'm on Windows 10 64. I tried the 32 bit install and that was went OK as well. I deleted the entry in the registry (simulating a fresh install) and tried again and all the colours come up correctly and the code explorer is working fine. I am afraqid I don't have a Win 7 PC around any more so con not check in your environment.

You could try to reboot your machine and see if it comes up properly this time.

The only thing I noticed was that the font selection defaulted to a rather small font but I don't think that should affect anything.

Hi,
I may be talking rubbish as I have not trie the program but can you try to "Run as administrator" as I have a few programs that do not work properly but when I run as administrator they do.

Regards,
Bob

As I said a tiny thing, whenever is good.
