#1073 SearchParse fails in 3.0a0

[Eric Lawrence]

I've been using !searchparse for years (most recently using v2.46) but it no longer works in 3.0a0 as it did before.

; Get the Fiddler version # out of AssemblyInfo.cs
!searchparse /file ..\application\assemblyinfo.cs '[assembly: AssemblyVersion("' VER_FIDDLER '"')

Here's what AssemblyInfo.cs contains:

[assembly: AssemblyVersion("2.4.4.7")]

The AssemblyInfo.cs file is ASCII; removing the UTF-8 BOM from the top doesn't help. Adding Unicode True to the install NSI didn't help.

Output:

Processing config: C:\src\NSIS3\nsisconf.nsh

!searchparse: starting string "[assembly: AssemblyVersion("" not found in file!
Error in script "FiddlerCap.nsi" on line 10 -- aborting creation process

Changing the script command from

!searchparse /file ..\application\assemblyinfo.cs
'[assembly: AssemblyVersion("' VER_FIDDLER '"')

to:

!searchparse /ignorecase /file ..\fiddlercap2\properties\assemblyinfo.cs
'[assembly: AssemblyVersion("' VER_FIDDLER '")'

Whereby the closing parenthesis is inside the single-quotes appears to resolve the script error.

However, the original line of script didn't cause problems with the 2.46 installer, so this is definitely a change in behavior.
