hmm, am I missing something? My auction frame looks exactly the same with this addon or without....No AHsearch button... I use Fence, is this a problem?

When you install AHsearch you will see a 24x24 pixel 'Arrow Down' button ('AHsearch button') on the right side of your search field in the Auction House frame. Right-click that button for AHsearch options, Left-click to access your saved search queries and search.

I have no problem with Fence and AHsearch running at the same time.

Obviously i was missing something :)...Thanx

Recently, when I load a Character I get:

Error: Babble-Zone-2.2: Translation "The Battle for Mount Hyjal" does not exist.
AddOn: AHsearch
File: AceLocale-2.2.lua
Line: 487
Count: 1

Any ideas or help would be much appreciated.

Hey All,

Fantastic mod and one I have used for a long time. While this isn't really an issue it has puzzled me for quite some time.

Please see the image below.


AHSearch uses up the most memory and increases in size constantly at a steady rate. While this doesn't seem to have any ill effects at all to my gameplay experience I just wondered why it had such a big memory footprint on load (Even more than ArkInventory which remembers every item I have in all my bags / bank across 9 toons).

I am using the latest version as was updated with AceUpdater.

Like I said, Fantastic mod, Will continue to use it, just wondered if anyone knows the answer to this puzzle :)

Cheers!

Are you running with embed libs? In that case AHsearch is getting blamed for the libs it uses, simply because it's loaded first.
Try disembedding and see if the memory usage remains the same.

I see what you are saying (And I wasn't blaming AHSearch at all) as I said I love this mod I was just puzzled as to why hence my previous post. So AHSearch loads up ACE2Libs then all the other mods that also try to load them but do not as AHSearch already has. That makes sense.

Would this be the reason the memory usage steadily goes up as well?

On a Side not how would I go about disembedding a mod?

Hehe no offense intended :D Maybe I should have said "credited" instead of blamed.

Anyway, if you want to disembed you need to

1) Download WAU.
2) Downalod !!!StandAloneLibries.
3) Run WAU and reinstall all addons.
4) The end.

This will actually only help in loading times and seeing which addons claims how much memory.

Thanks dodga i'll give it a try :)

i use Auctioneer Classic (i.e. v3.x, not the new "advanced", v5.x), and AHSearch "quit working" today when i updated from wowace. specifically, the search button vanished from the auction UI.

i looked at the change log, specifically the changes flagged on Dec 6 2007, and i am guessing the new event handling (relative to the blizzard AuctionUI) is not compatible with auctioneer.

can this be rectified. as well, could support for auctioneer v5.x be added, so that i can move up to the new version?

thanks.

Can confirm since latest AHsearch update the drop down button disappeared, and i get following error every time at login:

Interface\AddOns\AHsearch\AHsearch.lua:136: AHsearchFrame:SetPoint(): Couldn't find region named 'BrowseName'

At least AhsearchNext is working again after last update (it stopped working together with latest AHsearch update too).

This sounds strange, because AHsearch is now Load On Demand, AHsearch will only load if Blizzard_AuctionUI is loaded and not on startup!

I tested
- Auctioneer 3.9.0-1260 (Beta) (with Auctioneer, EnhTooltip, Stubby and Swatter)
- Auctioneer 4.0.5 (with Auctioneer, BeanCounter, Bottom Scanner, EnhTooltip, Informant, Stubby and Swatter)
- Auctioneer 5.0.0.PRE.2616 (with Auctioneer, BeanCounter, Bottom Scanner, Enchantrix, EnchantrixBarker, EnhTooltip, Informant, Stubby and Swatter)

All versions from wow.curse.com. All additional addons listed above enabled. I had no problem running AHsearch together with any Auctioneer version above, expect 5.0.0.PRE.2616 told me to update Auctioneer (? but this warning msg had no impact on the AHsearch functionality ...)

AHsearch and the above Auctioneer versions were the only addons I enabled for that test with default Auctioneer settings. I tested with BugGrabber and BugSack instead of swatter to verify this, and I had no error at all.

So, I am sorry but I can't reproduce your error. What exact Auctioneer version do you use? (where can I download it?)

After your note about !BugGrabber & BugSack i downloaded them both and give you a more detailed report of it below:

I guess that this error has something with Ace2 to do, although it started after last AHsearch update. Am using JWowUpdater (with added option to delete before updating) to keep myself regularly updated.

I hope this info can help you more then it does to me, and am sorry to have bothered you if this has nothing to do with your addon.

Anyway, thanks for your addon - it really makes AH-time much easier. :)

Do you get this error if AHsearch is the only addon that is enabled? I guess not, I think you have an other addon that causes this error by changing default Blizzard_AuctionUI or changing LoadOnDemand of AHsearch in any way.

The EditBox named 'BrowseName' is in 'Blizzard_AuctionUI.xml'. This xml file (the whole Blizzard_AuctionUI) is load on demand; it is loaded when you click on an Auction Character in the Auction House to open the Auction UI (and btw before AUCTION_HOUSE_SHOW event is fired). This default Blizzard Addon is NOT LOADED at startup!!!

AHsearch is load on demand if this default Blizzard Addon Blizzard_AuctionUI is loaded!
So: AHsearch is loaded AFTER Blizzard_AuctionUI!
So: when AHsearch is loaded, the EditBox 'BrowseName' is available to use it as parent or so!

Unless you have no problem with AHsearch running alone, your problem has nothing to do with AHsearch.

Sorry, but to reproduce your error I need to know which addons you use.

btw:
I tested the Auctioneer Advanced Suite (in my last post I tested the classic version only):
AuctioneerAdvancedSuite-5.0.PRE.2616.zip from http://auctioneeraddon.com/
Enabled all addons (Auc-Advanced, Auc-Filter-Basic, Auc-ScanData, Auc-Stat-Classic, Auc-Stat-Purchased, Auc-Stat-Simple, Auc-Stat-StdDev, BeanCounter, BtmScan, Enchantrix, Enchantrix-Barker, EnhTooltip, Informant, Stubby and Swatter).
I get NO ERROR together with AHsearch. AHsearch is working fine, I checked this again with BugGrabber/BugSack instead of Swatter, no error...

Well i did some trial and error with OptionHouse ( http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info7324-OptionHouse.html ) by disabling one addon after another and doing reload ui each time.

Conclusion: As soon as i disable AHsearchNext the error disappears, AHsearch drop down button appears again and is working just fine along with all my other addons. Having all other addons disabled and only those two enabled gives me the error. AHsearch alone gives no error.

Searching the forum for AHsearchNext gave me nothing and i dunno how to make the author aware of this. About a week has passed and am wondering if i am the only one that has noticed this incompatibility.

I use the Java Updater and found that AHSearch will not load if I run the updater "without externals". I assume that JWU fails to download/keep one of the included libraries when it is breaking them out. I've posted the same bug report on the JWU forum.

I've been told that the following line needs to be added to the AHSearch.toc

## X-Embeds: Ace2, DewDropLib

Thanks. I accidentally removed X-Embeds in r56657.

kunda, all you need to do is to put a

LoadAddOn("Blizzard_AuctionUI")

at the top of your addon, and BrowseName will always be available. If someone loaded your addon somehow prematurely before Blizzard_AuctionUI loaded, then at least your addon will force Blizzard_AuctionUI to load. Normally this wouldn't happen, since there is a ##LoadWith: clause, but this is a fallback solution that works.

I know!

Do you remember http://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php?topic=10463.0 ?
And to answer your Reply #13-post in that thread:
It's not AddOnTest1's author's design failure!
It's a bug in Blizzard's LoadOnDemand/LoadWith implementation!
But I don't care: I just do not use LoD/LW unless it's fixed...

kunda

I see that you put X-Embeds back in there, however it still doesn't work without externals... not sure why.
