+[8.50b1] Can't list content of RAR V4 archives

[Biozynotiker]

Can't list content of RAR V4 archives, if the extension is not ".rar".
(Use archives like folders option is enabled)

Example:
Press Return on "Test.rar", TC list content
Press Return on "Test.rar4", TC shows a empty filelist

This behavior wasn't exists on TC 8.01.

Confirm.

Indeed I have limited allowed extensions to .rar and .exe to avoid that people list files multiple times in multi-volume RAR archives: This is a problem with unrar.dll, if you open part two of a RAR, you see again all files. So when a user selects all parts and tries to unpack them all, unrar.dll will try to unpack each file multiple times.

I will have to find a better solution to exclude other parts.

Here's possible solutions:

1.
You can add "LimitRarExts" option for ini.
LimitRarExts=1 -> detect only exe and rar
LimitRarExts=0 -> detect anywhere

2.
Just remove selection of multiple parts if 1st is selected before extracting.

3.
(evolution of "2")
Add parameter to remove sel (1) or not (0). Default is 1.

I found a better solution: I don't show files if the archive is named .r00, .r01 etc. or .000, .001 etc.

ghisler,
But what if I have only volume .r50 and want to extract file that begins from that volume?

I don't show files if the archive is named .r00, .r01 etc. or .000, .001 etc.

So strange... Even WinRar does not do such a thing...
Deselection looks better.

p.s.
Sometimes I have to work with rar-parts and need to unpack some files from the middle or the end of the part. And in most cases I can't put all the parts together.

I can confirm that this is fixed with 8.50b2a

Yeah, it's much better now.
