[proFit-list] [Ann] pro Fit 7.0 Beta 4

Sat Nov 1 08:21:12 CDT 2014

Hi Dirk,
	No complaints here. I was curious about it so I ran your post through Google Translate. Wanted to know what “gerade” would come out to be, as I remembered gerade and ungerade from quantum chemistry.  Also, I haven’t done any plug ins in a while, but your question was interesting to me, so thanks for posting.

I can compile that Pascal function with the "To Menu" button, but I used the "run" button for some odd reason (this works in 6.2.14). In 7 B4, it produces the error "FRCopy: FileRef invalid" and pro Fit crashes.

>> Dear Dirk
>> 
>> Make sure to use the latest versions of the files proFit_interface.h, proFit_interface.c, proFit_paramBlk.h. You can find them by installing the pro Fit example files (choose "Install Example Files" from "pro Fit's help menu). The files for writing plug-ins can be found in the subfolder "Programming 7 - plug-ins" if the installed example files. (If the issue continues, please let us have a copy of your whole project, sending it directly to profit at quansoft.com.)
>> 
>> To load a plug-in (or any other file) automatically on start-up, it must be placed in the pro Fit plug-ins folder. The easiest way to locate that folder is by choosing "Open users plug-in folder" from the Customize menu. However, due to a bug in pro Fit 7.0 B4 bundled plug-ins stored in that folder are presently not loaded. This will be corrected in B5. For the time being, such plug-ins must be opened manually.
