DWMX 04 Crashes in Preferences-File Types / Editors

Mac OS X 10.3.9 DWMX 2004 v/ 7.0.1.2181. No antivirus
software. Was working properly for many moons. Tried rebuilding
permissions, trashing prefs to no avail.
When I access Preferences-->File Types / Editors and click
on the (+) symbol to add a new editor, DW immediately
crashes.

Open ColdFusion documents in Dreamweaver CC

How can I open a cfm file in Dreamweaver CC using a Mac? Added to the Extensions.txt. Getting error adding to preferences-- file types.

I am trying to open Cold Fusion files using Dreamweaver CC. We've never had a problem with the versions before the Cloud. My co-worker can open using a PC, but I'm using a Mac. I can connect to the server and see the files, but when I open, it opens the file in text editor. I have tried adding the extensions to the Extensions.txt file (they weren't there previously), editing the MMDocumentTypes.xml file (the file type WAS in that file), adding to the Preferences-->File Types/Editors (I can add the extension, but when I try to choose Dreamweaver CC as the editor, I get an error "You cannot use Adobe Dreamweaver CC as an external editor. Please choose a different application."). When I right-click the file, I do not see an "Open With" option, only "Open". Does anyone know of another trick that could make Dreamweaver CC more than an HTML editor for Mac? I cannot us CF Builder - no approval for loading the extra files server-side to use that IDE.

Adding New File Type/Editor (CS6)

There are a number of posts around editing Extensions.txt and MMDocumentTypes.xml but those posts don't seem to be solving my issue.
I have 40+ Dreamweaver users and I'd like to be able to send them one or two configuration files that add new extensions ALONG WITH primary and secondary associations for editing.
For example, I need to add the extension for PowerPoint (.pptx) and associate PowerPoint as the editor. I want to do this for all Microsoft Office file extensions - associate the extension with the default editor.
As a test, I've changed both Extensions.txt and MMDocumentTypes.xml in my local user folder, but the only result I get is that the .pptx file extension in the list of extensions Dreamweaver can Save As...
That's not what I'm looking for.
When manually adding an extension and a primary (or secondary) editor in the DW preferences File Type / Editor panel, I get the result I want... double-clicking the file from the Files palette opens the file in the specified editor AND the file extension (.pptx) does NOT show up in list of extensions in the Save As... dialog.
I have about 10 different extensions/app associations I'd like to add. Is there someplace else I should be looking?

Searching for source in unrecognized file types

Using DW CS5, I'm unable to find text while searching that is in some of my files. I think this might be because these files are not recognized as source code by Dreamweaver. They are PHP files but they have the extension .ctp instead (because they are Cake files).
Is there any way to get Dreamweaver to consider these files when searching? I have already specified that Dreamweaver should be used to edit these files in Preferences -> File Types / Editors.
Thanks,
Stephen

JDev 10.1.3 EA: Bug in "File Types" preferences

Hi,
I've found a bug when using 10.1.3 EA, as follows:
1. Yesterday, under Tools -> Preferences -> File Types I added a new File Type for files with extension ".vm" (Velocity), and I'd associated it with an HTML Source "File Type."
2. I shut down JDev before going home.
3. Today, I fire up JDev EA and I decide that I now want .vm files to be associated with a file type of "XML Document." But I can't, because the "File Type" drop down is grayed out, as well as the "Remove" button. I can't even remove the .vm extension to redo it!
So, now I have to either hunt around in the JDev subfolders for the file(s) where this stuff is stored as a work-around, or completely reinstall JDev. Right? User-defined File Type extensions should remain editable, unless I'm missing something here...
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
We've got a bug tracking this, but in the meantime the extension is stored in \jdev\system\oracle.idex.10.1.3.34.12\preferences.xml.
Shutdown JDev and do the following, search for the extension type in preferences.xml, there will be two occurences, delete the Item element encompasing the type and save the file. Start JDev and the file type will be removed.
I had problems getting JDev to recognize newly added types, let us know if you have any further issues.

Unable to change File Type for specific file extensions

Under Preferences->File Types different file extensions are assigned a file type e.g. The file extension .pkb is assigned the file type of PL/SQL. The file type of PL/SQL then opens the Code editor.
I have a user who would prefer to open .pkb files in the SQL Worksheet editor but I am unable to change the file type to SQL Script as the option is greyed out.
How do I change the File Type for these extensions? Is there a preferences file I need to change?
Version: 3.2.20.09
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
There is no preference but it turns out you can manually edit one of the preferences.xml files to force PL/SQL types to use the SQL worksheet editor. For SQL Developer 3.2.20.09.87 that file is system3.2.20.09.87\o.sqldeveloper.11.2.0.9.87\preferences.xml and will be located (on Windows 7, for example) in directory C:\Users\<userid>\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer
No guarantee this will work in future versions of the product, but for now you can add the following two xml blocks...
For example, for .pls, add to <extensionToContentTypeMap ...>
            <Item>
               <Key>.pls</Key>
               <Value>TEXT</Value>
            </Item>
and <userExtensionList>
            <Item>
               <docClassName>oracle.ide.db.model.SqlNode</docClassName>
               <userExtensions class="java.util.ArrayList">
                  <Item class="oracle.ide.config.DocumentExtensions$ExtInfo">
                     <extension>.pls</extension>
                     <locked>false</locked>
                  </Item>
               </userExtensions>
            </Item> I researched this a while back after reading through some forum thread where someone claimed the PL/SQL file extensions got opened in the SQL editor in his environment, but without stating any specific release information. Possibly it worked for him then due to different product behavior (whether intentional or a bug), or perhaps even due to the technique described above.

Set file type associations in Adobe Bridge for Photoshop CS6

Is there a way I can edit the registry so that in Adobe Bridge, under edit, preferences, file type associations, the jpg extension is forced to use the 32-bit version of Photoshop? I can do it manually, but is there a registry key i can export to apply it to multiple computers?

Yes, in theory, but it is generally not recommended. But that location would depend on what OS you are on. This video give the locations for the Photoshop files, Bridge would just be in a neighboring folder: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/how-to-reset-photoshop- cs6s-preferences-file/

Configure File Type Associations dosen't work for users

Hi EB,
Does anyones knows how to set the File Type Associations for users ? It works for me when i'm logged in as Admin but not as a user. When logged as user it always ask to configure the file associations when i open JDev and even with JDev open it does not set it. I tried to find an article about that but couldn't find any.
I'm using :
winXP SP3
JDeveloper 11g TP4
and i've sets all rights for autentified users on the folders and subfolders of JDeveloper.
Thanks

I tried going on tool>preferences>File Type .... and associate projets and source and applications files with JDev check marking "open with JDev"... it didn't worked as user... it's just not saving my settings while reopening it it's never saved... at least i've been able to associate it in my Admin account then i can go back in user account and select open file with in windows, choose JDev and check mark "always open that file with that program" only after that the association is saved in JDev... but still it open the Configuration file windows at startup with the ones i already opened with JDev checked... anyway that's not a big issue ... only that i can't save those settings by the JDev environement while logged in as a user...

File Type Associations box is empty

In Bridge CS4 -- Click on Edit/Preferences/File Type Associations and you should get a list of files. I don't. My file Type Associations box is empty. Starting Bridge by dumping the cache and preferences does not help, the box remains empty. Has anyone ele experienced this? Better yet, does anyone know a possible fix. Thanks to anyone who can ofer any insight.

Curt:
Nope, I tried that but nothing happened. However, I did discover my bridge associations file had been deleted. I restored it and everything is back to normal. Thanks for your interest.

Can I change the default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File to '*.prc' ?

Want to change the 'default' extension for PL/SQL source to '*.prc'
When navigating 'File' / 'Save As', and selecting the 'File Type' list box,
The default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File is '*.pls'.
Can I change the default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File to '*.prc' ?
I have followed , 'Tools', 'Preferences' , 'File Types' and added '.prc' as 'Sql Script' file type, because (PL/SQL Source) is not present in the list.

You can certainly overwrite the 'Save As' extension as you are saving the file. I have added an ER for more control over this functionality.

4.1EA2: no formatting of pl/sql file type

I have a ".pck" file type declared as File Type PL/SQL in Tools > Preferences > File Types.
In 4.1EA2, when I open a ".pck" file, it no longer has any coloured formatting, just black and white text.
".pks" or ".pkb" files aer formatted fine.

There was a trivial case sensitivity bug that prevented parser from recognizing pl/sql source. For example,
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE TEST_PACK as
procedure test (
p_arg1 in varchar2 default 'AbcD',
p_arg2 in number default null);
end;
would be recognized (no matter what extension file had), while
CREATE OR REPLACE package ...
---------------------------------^^^^^^^^
won't be. This is fixed, of course, for RC1.

Changing a file type that will not open

sorry if this is a super simple question but I poked around and can't figure it out. Some time back I rented a Nikon scanner and scanned and saved a bunch of my images to my hardrive. I can see the thumbnails of said photos plain as day. When I try and open said photos in Bridge of PS5.1 it wants to open the file in conjunction with the scanner for some reason. When I click to open an image the icon box from the scanner software pops up as if it is loading then the error message box comes up to say : 'The application Nikon Scan 4 quit' unexpectedly giving the option to Ignore/Report/Relaunch - In any case - it wants to open the Tiff files I have saved through the Nikon Scan 4. I don't get it as to why that is but in any case I would imagine I just have to save as another file type? When I look to see the type of file it is : 'nikon scan Tiff file'
Because I CAN see the thumbnails in Bridge all I need to do is change the type of file but I see no way to do it as it is not currently saved as any file name suffix - the name of the file is not .jpeg or .tiff - it simply does not have any file type currently associated with them

'The application Nikon Scan 4 quit' unexpectedly giving the option to Ignore/Report/Relaunch - In any case - it wants to open the Tiff files I have saved through the Nikon Scan 4.
You should also check Bridge Preferences File type association. See what the default application to open in is for the tif files. If this is Nikon change it to PS and it should work.
It might be that when having used the Nikon software there was an option to hide the extension selected.
Any way, first duplicate one file and try to add tif as Tai Lao stated in his post and try if that is working.

Xhtml file type association (facelets)

Hi,
Is it possible to change JDevelopers xhtml file type recognition and associate it with JSP type. I'm using third party JSF/Facelet framework, which requires use of .xhtml extension for facelet pages.
Unfortunately JDeveloper does not allow to change a file type for this extension using Tools > Preferences > File Types. Since it treats files as html, JDev does not provide JSF tags in component pallete.
Thanks,
Noel.

Facelets may be used with JSF JSP pages in XML syntax instead of XHTML.
To develop a Facelets application in JDeveloper 10.1.3 with JSPs.
1. Add Facelets JAR files to a Facelets project.
<facelets-1.0.12>/ jsf-facelets.jar
<JDeveloper10.1.3>/jsf-ri/jsf-api.jar
<JDeveloper10.1.3>/jsf-ri/jsf-impl.jar
<JDeveloper10.1.3>/jakarta-struts/lib/ commons-beanutils.jar
<JDeveloper10.1.3>/jakarta-struts/lib/ commons-collections.jar
<JDeveloper10.1.3>/jakarta-struts/lib/ commons-digester.jar
<JDeveloper10.1.3>/jakarta-struts/lib/ commons-logging.jar
<facelets-1.0.12>/lib/el-ri.jar
<facelets-1.0.12>/lib/el-api.jar
2. Create a JSF JSP page. Convert the JSP page to JSP XML Sytax by adding
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.0"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"> </jsp:root>
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" is the Facelets namespace.
3. To faces-config.xml add:
<application>
<view-handler>
com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler
</view-handler>
</application>
4. To web.xml add
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
<param-value>.jsp</param-value>
</context-param>
In web.xml file, also specify the servlet mapping for the Faces Servlet.
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
5. To JSP page add tags from Facelets namespace.
6. Facelets navigation is similar to JSF navigation, and is specified in faces-config.xml.

JDev 10.1.3 / addes File Types don't work

I added 2 new File Types in JDeveloper 10.1.3 (Preview) by selecting Tools - Preferences - File Types - Add:
Extension File Type
.hta HTML Source
.ico GIF Image
When opening a .hta I see the code without syntax highlighting. The .ico image is displayed as hex code.
Is anyone familiar with this problem? How can I solve it?

Please zip me up a minimal 10.1.2.1 testcase that works correctly in 10.1.2.1 and fails when opening and running in 10.1.3 and I'll file a bug and have someone look into what's the cause.

EA1: Adding file types does not work.

The File Type preferences panel doesn't seem to work.
1 Go into Preferences
2 Click on File Types in the tree
3 CLick Add, enter an extension and click on OK
You get the stack dump below in the console.
The extension you just entered goes in a 'DeployableTextNode' with a tick in the Open with SQL Developer column.
But the check box in the bottom panel is Unchecked and all the other fields in bottom panel are disabled (Remove button; File Type drop down; Content Type Radio group).
4 Click on OK
5 Go back into Preferences | File Type.
The first time I did this, the extension I just added was gone.
Going through it again for this post, they are all gone, including the pre-supplied ones.
6 Exit SQL Developer and go back in and they are back.
