'Install modules' finds module that was already installed

[Nocturnal]

Hi,

I've reported this before but here is another case where searching for new modules (Carlos's modules in this case) re-found my Profile module and tried to load it again. As you can see from the console log the identical .dll was already loaded.

I have left the entire console contents intact in case it provides hints.

[Juan Conejero]

Hi Sander,

Thanks for the detailed report. Now I know what happens.

You have installed the following module at PI startup:

c:/PCL64/dist/x64/Profile-pxm.dll

and later you're trying to install this one:

C:/PCL64/dist/x64/Profile-pxm.dll

The bug is in that the module installation subsystem is applying case-sensitive comparisons to Windows drive letters. 'c:' and 'C:' should be treated as the same directory element but they are not. I'll check if case-sensitive comparisons are being applied to drive letters only, or also to the rest of path name elements, as Windows file systems are case insensitive. Obviously this is a Windows only bug; it cannot happen on other platforms.

The workaround is replacing 'c:' with 'C:'. You can do that easily by editing the configuration file.

This bug will be fixed in the next version. Thanks for finding and reporting it.

Thanks Juan. I thought module loading is done based on class names or some other runtime ID rather than paths. Otherwise you can reload the same .dll more than once and that won't work.
