cd
find . -name "SlickEdit*.desktop"
Delete the old ones.
cd
find . -name "SlickEdit*.desktop"

SlickEdit® / SE30 (2025) under ubuntu default desktop creates a 2023 icon on launch
« Last post by jc44 on January 15, 2026, 12:47:42 PM »SE 30.0.0.0 Ubuntu x64 current, default desktop. Once I have installed SE 2025 I get a SE icon on the dock bar. So far so good. But when I launch it I get another SE icon there. Other apps like the terminal do not create extra icons with extra windows. So I am surprised to find SE doing so.
If I mouse over my two SE icons, the one created by install says "SlickEdit Pro 2025" but the one created by launching it says "SlickEdit Pro 2023" (different year). Looks like there is an old string somewhere. Maybe fixing that will merge the icons? Either way the mouse over text is wrong. I did have SE2023 installed before I had 2025, so I guess the string might be stuck somewhere in the system rather than in SE itself.
Its a trivial issue, but somehow irritating!

« Last post by Clark on January 14, 2026, 05:25:43 PM »Reproduced. This is definitely a bug in an optimization. There are boat loads of optimizations that have to be done for regular expression to greatly enhance performance.
We will post again once we have a fix for this

SlickEdit® / SlickEdit v30 with hotfix 2: Regex search in XML file broken
« Last post by elmar on January 14, 2026, 01:03:10 PM »Hi,
there seems to be an issue with regular expression (SlickEdit) search:
If I perform a case-insensitive search for "raise?*func" in an XML file that contains lines like the following:
RaiseFault(MY_FUNC);
then I get no matches. If I change the search string partially to uppercase, i.e. "raise?*Func", then I get the expected matches.
It looks like the case of the very first letter following the "?*" part is relevant.
Similarly, searching for "raise?*unc" produces no matches, while "raise?*Unc" generates the expected results.
Best regards
Elmar

« Last post by pmsteinm on January 09, 2026, 05:20:08 PM »I realized I wasn't logged in when posting the above items. Now that I am I can't edit the above. I meant to add above that "just pasting the contents below into an empty SV file causes an immediate hang of VS."
Also that the file I found was added over the break. So this might not be a VS 2025 hf2 specific problem.
