Rider plugin tries to access non-existent folder on mac

[ioioio]

I've just installed the plugin for Rider 2021.2 on Mac. I tried to go Preferences > Version Control > PlasticSCM  and tried to press the ConfigureClient button. It gives me this: 

 

What's /Applications/macplastic.app? I only have 

 

/Applications/PlasticSCM.app

/Applications/PlasticSCMServer.app

Hi,

I’m afraid that at the moment the plugins in not compatible with version 2020.1 as this blog states: https://blog.plasticscm.com/2019/06/plastic-scm-fully-compatible-with-all-jetbrains-ides.html

We have plans for hosting and maintaining it in the JetBrains' plug-in registry soon.

Regards,

Hmm, the blog post was from 2019, so I just concluded the post is obsolete. Would be nice to state otherwise explicitly, for inattentive readers like me. 

So I need to downgrade Rider to 2019. Okay. What's the state of plugin support for Visual Studio?

Hi,

I agree with you; we need to make it explicit and clear that the compatibility remains the same to this date. I will talk with the Team and update that post.

The Visual Studio plugin is supported for versions 2005 and all newer ones.

This Page explains the installation process.

Since you don't seem to be supporting Rider for the past 3 years, perhaps you'd be willing to open source your Rider plugin? Someone might be willing to bring it up to date.

Hi,

The rider plugin it's continuously being supported, we fixed a problem just this month (it was affecting changes coming from shelves).

The task to fix this problem have been selected for development, I will keep you updated on the news.
