EA Inspector

EA Installation Inspector

This is a utility that provides information on the EA AddIns installed on the current system.

Check AddIn status with the EA Installation Inspector check

The main functions of the utility are to:

• Inspects the registry for keys that define an EA AddIn and its value i.e. its "AddIn class"
• Check whether the "AddIn Class" is registered
• Determine DLL filename for each registered "AddIn Class"

With this information it will:

• Create an entry for each AddIn with information that includes:
  • AddIn name
  • AddIn Class
  • DLL Filename

And will colour code the entry depending on observations - see example below In addition, additional tabs allow:

• Display of AddIns in a tree view from which queries can be initiated on the registry which can help identify:
  • Missing files
  • Multiple class entries
  • Duplicates
• Execution of custom queries on the registry

Plus few other odds & ends

The colours for each row (AddIn) found are as follow:

• Beige – indicates that CLSID and DLL are specified in different registry Key Sections
• Pink – indicates a Sparx key exist and ClassID – however the DLL file does not exist at the specified location
• Bright pink – means that no Class ID is set for the AddIn, hence the DLL cannot be identified
• Red – means the Sparx key doesn’t exist i.e., there is no classname specified for the key
