Plugin loading option to "Always load this library on entry" does not work

Open aseth1 opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. Load a plugin. Tools->User Plugins->
  2. Check "Always load this library on entry"
  3. Load model requiring plugin.
  4. Quit OpenSim
  5. relaunch OpenSim and load model requiring plugin.

Expected result

  • Model loads since plugin library is always loaded according to option.

Actual result

  • model fails to load
  • plugin must be loaded again

Environment and GUI version

  • 4.0 release on Windows

This came up while working with Colin Smith. Boils down to using the same file to save/restore models and plugins. If you set the preference Application: Restore Models on Startup to On then the restore/load on startup will work as expected. This is just a workaround until we either separate the models and plugins or make default behavior to restore all on entry.
