We have inherited some code (written for 2.8.5 I believe) that we have considerably restructured in 3.3. The code has html with javascript that loads json files to show in datatables. These json files have VARIABLES and CPPCALLs in them, but the do not get caught by the comphtml tool. The html also has VARIABLES and CPPCALLs which are. So; it seems that this probably worked at some point but not now. How can I make comphtml find these in json files as well;

Here is the output from comphtml;

omphtml ../html -ohtmldata.cpp
Reading files from ../html and compressing them into htmldata.cpp

Thanks,

Stephen

Is this from windows or a Mac?
I just ran this test and it worked for me... on windows...

One possible issue could be case sensitivity...

Is your json file

Sorry hit return too soon...
a JSON file or a json file?
This is controlled by the comphtml settings in MIME_magic.txt
Also make sure you don't have older versions of comphtml.exe in your path...

the line in the MIME_magic.txt file should be:
.json 3 application/json

Lastly the VARIABLE and CPPCALL need to be in a full html comment for compcode to find it...
IE:
<!--CPPCALL Foo -->

@pbreed - thanks very much; I am on a Mac - I tried it on a Windows VM and it worked - compared the MIME magic file - found the missing .json entry to my Mac installation - it now all works.

Thanks very much

Thanks for telling us what was wrong.
One of our engineers hunted down the installer error that was using the wrong mime_magic file on non-windows platforms.
Future releases will not have this error.
