Installing SRanipalTrackingModule without SRanipal Runtime causes a crash

Open orcinus opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Reproduction steps:

  1. uninstall SRanipal Runtime
  2. click "Install some from here" from the "No Modules Installed" notification
  3. click "Install" button for SRanipalTrackingModule
  4. application crashes

Expected result: Display an error prompting to install SRanipal runtime, if that's the cause of the crash. Otherwise, no crash and no error.

Version: 5.1.1.0

Platform: Windows 10 22H2

Additionally:

Yes, i am aware the instructions state "Don't forget to install SRanipal Runtime before installing this module". But that should be displayed as an error / prompt, not buried inside the module metadata. That is just silly from a UX POV.

Hmm, not sure how to implement this from a UI design perspective. Please feel free to PR whatever you think necessary :)

Handling an unhandled exception and popping up an error would probably be enough.

Hmmm. Actually, nevermind, this seems to be unrelated to SRanipal missing. It just happened with it installed and running.

Is there a crash log i can get to somewhere?
