The plugin can not find wimproved's dll

Open KabbAmine opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

Even if the dll's are present in the wimproved's directory, the plugin still giving me the following error:

2016-01-18_14-00-50

I didn't take a look to the code but logically the backslashes are interpreted correctly by vim and there are no special characters in the path, so where is the problem?

Thanks in advance

Getting the same error here, even after hardocding the path.

let s:dll_path = 'C:\Users\timm\vimfiles\plugged\wimproved.vim\wimproved64.dll'

explorer_2016-06-09_14-57-34 throws

Could not locate C:\Users\timm\vimfiles\plugged\wimproved.vim\wimproved64.dll

I also tried to put the dll into wimproved.vim\autoload, again hardcoding the path, that didn't work either.

I'm on Windows 10 x64, gVim x64.

The location actually has no problem. The DLL has.

I tried someone's DLL and it works.

The problem comes from the DLL indeed; try to re-compile it yourself. I've managed to do it with MSYS2 g++:

cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" . && make && mv libwimproved.dll wimproved64.dll

(Windows 7 64bit)
