I am having trouble loading R4 into the Notepad++ plugin, and I have a hunch it's related to the exact release version number. Was 4.1.0 released recently?

I figured out a workaround for anybody else who has this issue. Using the plugin's package manager to load the default R4 package appears to get the most current build (4.1.0), which is not recognized as R4 by other elements of the plugin. However, explicitly importing the 4.0.0 NPM package does appear to work (it's available from https://www.hl7.org/fhir/package.tgz as of 2019-07-13).

I submitted the issue to the plugin's github for reference: https://github.com/grahamegrieve/fhirserver/issues/102#issue-474701016

4.1.0 is the current build, which is not supported by the notepad++ plug-in

Got it - it looks like the plug-in is grabbing the current build (4.1.0) when you select R4 in the package manager, which is causing the issue. I have it all working now. Thanks for the help and the excellent tool!

When i install the Plugin - I am getting error messages "Downloading the package failed: unable to find package for hl7.org.core#4.0.0 at http://build.fhir.org/: HTTP/1.1 404 NOT found (can be done later through the installed application). When I click no - I do not see the extension installed in the Windows Notepad++ extension directory
