confusion about ignores

[Gorlash]

I don't understand what I'm supposed to do here. I want EDP to ignore all *.o, *.u, *.s files in all directories.

I have added to ignores:
:*\*.s
:*\*.o
:*\*.u
I have both "Use Ignores" and "Use Comparison Filters" checked.

But only the first one (*.s) is working, all the *.o and *.u are still listed...
What else do I need to do??

EDP Build 7.0.1.23 (64-bit), registered.
Windows 7 64-bit

This looks right. Could you post your screenshots of the Options screen with filters and the results of comparison?

Here they are; it's only a partial list, since the full directory list is over 1800 files!

If you want to exclude all of the mentioned extensions, you should have the filters comma-separated, like this:

Code: Select all

*\*.s,:*\*.o,:*\*.u

hmmm... okay, that appears to work...

It leaves a couple of thoughts in mind, though;

1. Could you add a note on that dialog, about the separator character? (or is it there?? I don't see it...)
I was thinking of concatenating my options, but didn't see how to do it, so tried separate entries.

2. Why don't separate entries work??

It says it right on the options screen: comma-separated strings.

2. Why don't separate entries work??

Because the drop-down entries are different filters, not parts of the same filter.

Wow, yeah it was... I've never noticed the end of the groupbox label before, all I ever noted was the text blocks... nevermind.
