Yes. In trying to speed up subsequent invocations of EdSharp, I moved a block of code so that it would only execute on the first invocation. Apparently, however, the following line still has to be executed each time:


base.IsSingleInstance = true;

I had recently discovered the problem myself, but had not yet mentioned the fix on the list before today, so depending on when one downloaded EdSharp the problem may have been present or not. At any rate, hope it's fixed now. Sorry about the confusion.

Hi,
Out of curiosity, was I anywhere in the universe of what the problem was?

Thanks.

Try installing the latest EdSharp (F11) and see if that fixes the
problem.  Install even if F11 does not think there is a newer version.  No
need to reinstall the scripts.

In the previous version it would work fine; opening from Explorer
always put all files in the same instance. I am not sure what would
have changed, but it is definitely possible.

Hi,
Perhaps EdSharp can change some property or other to make it always run
as a
single instance, even from outside. I wonder how to look that up. Maybe
there is such a thing as an MDI property that can be set.

Oh, I bet that is it: what happens when you open files from Windows
Explorer? In previous versions, each file would open as a new window
in a single instance of edSharp, but now it seems that each file
launches its own instance. It is good to know that I can get around
this by opening from within edSharp, though this will take some
getting used to as I am one of those who rarely, if ever, uses an
application to open a file as opposed to letting Windows associations
handle it.

Business as usual over here as well.
I have multiple source code files open in edSharp and can cycle through
them

I am not seeing this, either.  Windows 7, 32-bit edition.  I am using
EdSharp to open the files, not opening the files into EdSharp from
Windows
Explorer.

Hi all,
I just noticed a big problem in the most recent version of edSharp:
multiple files launch multiple instances in the program. This means that
all
files for, say, a project are open in separate windows which you must
alt-tab to, instead of one window providing access through commands like
f4
and ctrl-tab. This is especially frustrating to work with when you have
several files open and are going between them and a command prompt or
compiler window; before, it was just a single alt-tab to switch back to
edSharp, then you could choose the files you wanted, but now it is
multiple
alt-tabs, and tracking where files are in the alt-tab list is difficult
at
best.
