Don’t forget to update the XML file in the roaming directory too!

What I did:
Upgrade Notepad++
Installed Unicode version of functionlist
Closed Notepad
Copied dll into plugins directory
Copied everything else into plugins/config
Overwrite ruleslist xml file in application roaming directory.
Now shiney.

I was having same problem – when I would start Function List in Notepad++ it would always say No Rule Defined. Just about to give up, and I tried one more thing, working off a suggestion made here. Note – I’m on a Windows XP system.

First, FunctionList.dll should go in the notepad++ program folder/plugins as the instructions say.

But the other files: C++.flb, functionlistrlues.xml, and the bmp file ALL go in your
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Notepad++\plugins\config folder

I just did this as a last ditch thing, and I went to Notepad++ and bingo it was listing my functions in my PHP file.

Try using the dll on Ruslan website.

Hi,

I have Notepad++ version 5.8.6 and I install this handy plugin (FunctionList_2_UNI_dll.zip) but… it isn’t work.

I have Windows Vista Business edition and I try to put FunctionListRules.xml in c:\users\%username%\Local Settings\Application Data\Notepad++\Config but it isn’t work: Notepad++ always says that No Rule Defined.

Any help is welcome! Thanks!

Great! I was going mad!
Function List was working, but it did not show nothing. But now I’m happy

Todd and freak3dot are right. Notepad++ will hold the file and revert it to some crappy old version if it is open when you copy.

This is precisely what I was looking for, thanks.

I am surprised they didn’t include this plugin in the installer by default – it is so handy!

Just one little remark for Windows 7 users, the “Application Data” folder is this one:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++

I Agree with Todd here. I had to close N++ before dropping the xml config file in C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Notepad++\plugins\config directory.

I am using the FunctionList_2_0_UNI_dll.zip beta version of the Functions plugin and N++ 5.4.5
