AddonLoader

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

AddonLoader is an addon that loads other addons automatically, as and when they are needed, which speeds up the logon process.

Note that addons need to be aware of AddonLoader for this to work; if you see "X-LoadOn-..." tags in their .toc files, they are!

Greetings !

Since I've used this useful addon for some time, I wanted to report a report BuckSack throws at me these days... It doesn't look very ennoying or game-breaking.

1x [ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED] AddOn 'AddonLoader' tried to call the protected function 'SetTargetClampingInsets()'.
!BugGrabber\BugGrabber.lua:573: in function <!BugGrabber\BugGrabber.lua:573>
[C]: in function `SetTargetClampingInsets'
...eBlizzard_NamePlates\Blizzard_NamePlates.lua:240: in function `SetupClassNameplateBars'
...eBlizzard_NamePlates\Blizzard_NamePlates.lua:87: in function `OnNamePlateAdded'
...eBlizzard_NamePlates\Blizzard_NamePlates.lua:44: in function <...eBlizzard_NamePlates\Blizzard_NamePlates.lua:35>

InCombatSkipped

Thank your for your work ! Cheers !

Benjamin

Just a quick check to see if AddonLoader will be updated for WoD - it worked well until they messed with GetAddonInfo. It doesn't throw any errors, just doesn't work. The "enabled" argument is now "isLoaded", etc.

Thanks!

Addon Control Panel has nothing to do with AddonLoader. ACP is enable/disable. AddonLoader is load-on-demand automatically without you clicking anything. ACP is controlled by you. AddonLoader is mainly controlled by addon author. Not even remotely related.

Unlike the prior poster who's problem isn't related to AddonLoader, I have encountered a verifiable issue with the X-Load-On-Zone conditional in WoW 4.0.1.

AddonLoader doesn't seem to recognize anymore in WoW 4.0.1 certain (English language) zones called by that conditional. Instead, it improperly loads the addon Delayed. See Ticket 15. It might have to do with the certain zone missing from the current version of LibBabble-Zone (although it didn't have the problem in WoW 3.x).

Just wanted to let you know that AddonLoader and ArkInventory are not playing nicely together. With AddonLoader installed, the default bags show up at the bank over top the ArkInv screen. No errors so far.

Then that is a problem in ArkInventory's on-demand loading and should be reported there; it's no fault of AddonLoader.

Okay.. now try disabling addons getting loaded by AddonLoader instead - one by one - and I'll bet you'll find one of those that cause the problem.

aye it´s nothing to do with AddonLoader (i don´t have AddonLoader yet even, but might try it), and after the 3.3.5 patch i get a disconnect just about every time i reload my UI.
Logging in is fine, but reload boots me from the server. Got too many addons to bother going through them, im hoping the addon(s) that cause this will get updated soon! :)

It only happens when I load them via the AddonLoader, not when they are loaded like normal by the game client.

But I guess it could be related to some functionality in another addon that only gets triggered if it is on-demand loaded?

Yes, that's my thought -- one of the addons is suddenly misbehaving when loaded on-demand.

As of 3.3.5, this addon (that I have been using for a very long time) now freezes wow about 3-5 seconds after the loading screen goes away and the I get disconnected. If I disable just this addon, it works fine. Tested 10+ times without addon (working) and 6 times with addon (freeze + disconnect).

What is the default load delay, and can it be changed?
