TortoiseHg bends over backwards to avoid problems like these. The first thing hgtk.exe does is insert its own gtk/ folder at the start of the system PATH so it _should_ find its own DLLs first. However GTK has its own DLL loading logic that ignores the PATH and looks in places like C:\Windows. I suggest looking for older GTK DLLs lying about in your system path and see if they can be removed (note that tortoisehg does not place any GTK DLLs in the PATH, because they are not properly versioned). As a last measure, you can use one of the preview installers of the Qt port of TortoiseHg available at http://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg/downloads. -- Steve Borho ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Tortoisehg-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/tortoisehg-discuss
