Running Rubberduck as a non-admin user

This release addresses a number of urgent patches to serious bugs found in the previous 2.0.12 release.

Known Issues

  • Possible crash on exit. We can't rule it out entirely still, so when you close the host application make sure the process is no longer running in Task Manager.
  • Unloading, and then re-loading the add-in from the IDE's "addins manager" will no longer wreck the IDE and its host, but still won't re-load correctly. Don't do that.
  • Source Control can work, but its use isn't as user-friendly as it could be, and it tends to throw all kinds of exceptions for unintuitive reasons. We've made it a project of its own to git it up and running smoothly.
  • Please see our issues list for the complete backlog, or review the Maintenance project for a more digestible view of [bug] and [technical-debt] issues, and review the Features project for the feature backlog - inspections have their own backlog, too.

New Features

  • Indent Project; the original Smart Indenter had that feature, and we had removed it last year for performance reasons... however preliminary testing shows the Rubberduck port can now actually indent a 112-module VBA project in less than 15ms - so we added it back.. and didn't bother reinstating the indent progress window.
  • Option Base 0 inspection; a simple inspection that locates Option Base 0 statements, which are redundant (it's the default setting in VBA); a quick-fix removes them effortlessly.
  • New WPF UI for several refactoring dialogs:
    • Rename
    • Remove Parameters (includes a preview of affected signature(s))
    • Reorder Parameters (includes a preview of affected signature(s))
  • #2805 Context status label now displays the containing scope instead of the containing module when the selection isn't on a declaration or identifier reference, inside a procedure body. The lookups have also been optimized, they're now pretty much instant.

Fixes

  • #2727 refactor/rename no longer incorrectly warns about name clashes.
  • #2737 DeclarationFinder now correctly handles multiple classes implementing the same interface.
  • #2773 Introduced a small delay before launching the initial parse; this prevents a race condition where Rubberduck could start parsing modules that the VBE hasn't finished loading.
  • #2802 Concurrent file I/O was possibly causing a parser error; fixed, and we now generate the temp files under %temp%\Rubberduck instead of under the install folder.
  • #2814 Fixed race condition (?) possibly causing a hard crash when the module of the ActiveCodePane gets removed.
  • #2849 ParameterCanBeByVal false positive with object parameter, fixed.
  • Several fixes in the DeclarationFinder, which was throwing a number of exceptions - all fixed.
