I am struggling with a bootstrapper problem and would be extremely grateful for some assistance. I hope this is the correct forum to use, thank you very much in advance. I am using Visual Studio to create a deployment project for a VB6 application with 3 prerequisites: Windows Installer 4.
Net Framework 3. I am only interested in 32 bit architectures. Most articles on version 4. Note: Most articles on version 4. All color coding customizations are stored in the registry. Just export this key. If you are copying these settings to a different computer, then copy that file over to that computer.
Install HomeSite if it was not already installed. After installation, double click on the reg file, it will automatically update your registry and restore your color coloring customizations. Note: this is not saving custom parsers you might have added, just the color selections that you might have chosen to use for particular coloring schemes.
In Explorer, you can select a file, then Right-Mouse-Click to pop up the context menu. You then select which application you wish or what action to perform. ASP files. Obviously, this procedure can be applied to other file types. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to a subdirectory that contains files of the type you wish to add an action to. Note the name of that file type used in the Type column. Select one of the files and Right-Mouse-Click to see if there is already a default action associated with it.
The action will generally be bolded and near the top of the pop-up menu. If the bolded one is "Open With" then there is no default application. If there are no actions assocated with the file type or if you want to replace the existing open action, you can add one the short way. If you want to add HomeSite in addition to other actions, then you need the longer method. The pop-up menu should have " Open With " as an option. Click it. Choose the program you want to use HomeSite and check the box saying "Always use this program to open this type of file.
HomeSite should now be used as the default when you double-click on files of this type. The longer method On the Explorer menu, select View Options.
Next, select the File Types tab. Find the file type name you noted in step 2 and click " Edit. The default action will be bolded.
To add a new one for HomeSite click " New " under the actions box. In the " Action " box, add a new name, like " Edit with HomeSite " For the " Application used to perform action " box, click on the browse button and go to your HomeSite install directory. Select the Homesite exe file and click ok. This lets it work for paths that contain spaces. Click Ok. Select the action and click "Set Default" if you wish. Click OK several times to finish. Explorer's ability to associate multiple apps with a file type can be very handy.
For instance, you can have the default set to your main editor, but also have options for other editors you use, file checkers, compilers, etc as long as you have the correct command line parameters set up. A simple registry entry addition will allow IE5 to use HomeSite to edit html.
See this technote for full directions and a registry change file for your installation. Change the argument as necessary for other locations. Without the quotes, the editor thinks paths with spaces are 2 arguments instead of one and it fails. See also his informative earlier discussion on this topic. The fix seems to be to make sure that "Use DDE" is un-checked. For Internet Explorer, it should remain checked.
Jens Nilsson writes I use it for a lot for the most common asp commands and it works pretty nice because you can choose where the cursor will appear after running the function. I haven't really looked in to it yet but I don't believe that feature is available for snippets is it? As a result of all this it means that you have a very customizable tool that certainly increases your coding speed, lets you choose where the cursor will land, gives you control of what you will call the abbreviation, when to run it and what shortcut to run it with.
You can for instance call the code template when you type resp and it will give you the Response. Write "" with the cursor already inside the quote marks. You also don't have the bother with suggestions of commands appearing when you don't want to which can be a bit annoying sometimes.
I think the Code template been underestimated and I just wanted you to be aware of it if you weren't already. Regards, Jens Nilsson. That technote shows the Allaire registry keys used in older versions of HomeSite. Effortlessly validate, reuse, navigate, and format your code with integrated coding tools.
The wizards quickly create pages, tables, frames, and JavaScript elements for you. The extensibility of XHTML provides the flexibility to incorporate new Web communication and presentation ideas as they emerge. Developers can use the new Secondary Files tab to browse local and remote files simultaneously and to drag and drop files between the two Files tabs, efficiently incorporating documents and images.
The new Folder Deployment settings enable developers to determine the deployment method for individual folders and files within a project.
These new settings make deployment much more accessible to the novice user while maintaining the sophistication of the feature for the high-end user.
Checking your code for errors is as simple as hitting Shift and F6, a big improvement over the days of scrutinizing code and straining your eyes in search of missing "tr" and "td" tags. Another important improvement is the new Secondary Files tab, which lets you access multiple files at once, making it much easier and faster to incorporate remote files into your HomeSite project.
In addition, Macromedia has included an Auto Backup feature, designed to save your work as often as you decide is necessary.
