Dear Debbie,
Please check your firewall.
regarding FindInFiles messages, please do not leave FileMasks input empty in FindInFiles dialog. You may want to have there something like *.html;*.php;*.js |
Hello Dmitri,
I have the same problem with Find in Files. I think that setting the file mask is a temporary workaround for these reasons:
1) When dealing with large project, I find that I do not always know all of the type of files I wish to search. So this becomes impractical when dealing with a project that has a varied type of files that is added to the project by other developers in cvs or svn, etc.
2) The binary messages warnings also come when a perfectly valid text file such as *.php or *.html contains some binary character. In the case of my php files, the binary character gave a "Transliteration" log type. I suppose this can be filtered...but this should not have to be. I would only be interested in "Transliteration" if the file this occurred in also matches my search criteria.
Basically, I feel the output of the find in files is not "user friendly". It should contain only positive results, it should not have any output that does not satisfy the criteria, regardless if there was binary data in the file. Perhaps a better thing would be to have a checkbox in the Find In Files dialog box that is enabled by default that would supress results if they do not actually contain the text that is being searched.
