HelloWorld, nor any SDK examples work for Me. :(

Hi there.
Feebly trying work with the Illustrator CS3 SDK. I wanted to develop an Illustrator plugin, but for now will settle on a simple HelloWorld example. I am hoping someone can just point me in the right direction. Feel I am ready to give up before I even get started. Here are the dilemmas...
In the SDK docs, none of the tutorials or examples work for me. For the most part, nothing compiles, I get one error after another. The times code actually does compile, Illustrator will not load the plugin.
I've spent a week or two simply trying to get one of the examples to work, any one of them, or to simply get the HelloWorld example to work, no luck. Spent hours tracking down where things could be breaking, but found no results. I cannot tell if I am getting closer to finding the cause of the problem(s) or if I am working in circles.
I ask this to anyone so kind to assist. Please step me through a simple HelloWorld example, which actually works on my system. I am happy to, and would provide details of various error messages I get, but I think seeing a simple working example would be the best help.
Here's are the details.
Trying to get the HelloWorld example, from the SDK CS3 docs, to work on either the mac or pc. I prefer the pc though.
- On the mac, using xcode. OSX, the latest. Tried compiling with all minor versions of OSX.xxx too.
I was able to get the helloWorld example to sort of compile, but it created a folder instead of a plugin, which didn't work.
- On the pc, using winXP Pro, win32. Computer is up-to-date, service pack 3, a gig of ram, Pentium 4 3.00GHz.
Using Visual C++ Express 2008, also tried with 2005.
Here are a few things I tried, in attempt to get the HelloWorld example to work.
-> Tried addressing all the "gotcha" tips from this site:
http://www.graphicscode.com/Articles/VCExpressGotchas.html#RC1015
-> Tried every which way to point the includes to the correct locations. Tried even copying the common library files into the same folder as the project.
-> Tried saving the resource files in different formats, eg. UTF8, ANSI. Tried different line terminators eg. CR/LF.
Not only the correct code, but I think what I need most are the correct project settings for Visual C++ Express. Also, there might be something funny going on with how VC++ creates resource files too.
Appreciate any help.
Thank you,
-Justin

Nobody??
Hello WORLD << Anybody out there.... :)

  • Is there any Documentation frame work for OAF development

    hi
    Is there any Documentation frame work for OAF development like AIM Documentation for RICE components ?
    Hence , it is very clear that, MD50 and MD70 template is not for the OAF java development.
    Is there any need to document the oaf development, hence it is using MVC architecture and all the components of the OAF development is very transparent.
    thanks

    You can extra sections if needed based on the customizations / extensions / personalizations.

  • Are there any DAQmx examples available for use with pci 6229 M series card?

    I have been searching around for examples which work with the pci 6229 M series DAQ card. Most examples do not list this card as applicable and the one I have found gives an error. Is there anywhere specifically available, what I am particularly interested in is seeing an analogue channel being triggered by another analogue channel reaching a certain value.
    Thanks
    Kevin

    Hi Kejoglo,
    You are right in the fact that the M-Series card is newer than LabVIEW (and therefore the examples that are shipped with it) and therefore the example finder doesn't list the M-Series cards in the list of available hardware.
    Basically though, the M-Series cards work with DAQmx and not Traditional DAQ so if you just go into the example finder and search under Hardware Input and Output>>DAQmx and choose an example from that folder to run on your M-Series card. As long as you don't try to do anything outside of the specifications of your card (which I doubt you will do) then you shouldn't have any trouble running any of the DAQmx examples on an M-Series card.
    Hope this helps, if you still have problems then please feel free to write back.

  • Do I need an Apple flash drive or does any flash drive work for storage?

    Can i interchange my flash drives that i have used for my PC with my new mac?

    Any work if properly formatted. OS X can read/write FAT formatted drives, but can only read NTFS formatted drives.
    Windows cannot read/write any OS X formatted drive without third-party software such as MediaFour's MacDrive.

  • Will Struts or any other framework work for this?

    Here is the bird's eye view of the project. We have data coming in from different sources in different format. We need to process this data into our my own standard format and load them into database.
    We built our own Java classes to solve this but now we have too many classes and maintaining them is getting out of hand. Can we use the STRUTS framework to build our project? Or is there any other framework we can use? Would like the project more maintainable, flexible and reusable. Any kind of suggestion is welcome. Thanks in advance.

    struts is a web framework, so I don't see how it'll help with persistence.
    can't tell based on two lines of requirements.

  • Sdk examples missing macro

    Hello All,
    I am trying to build the shake sdk example plugins for os x on a mac-pro.
    Problem is that when I click on any of the newly appeared SDK->xxx icons, I only get a black screen saying "missing macro" in red.
    and in my shell it says,
    "error: NRiFxButton1, line 1: unknown function SFileInDialog_
    SFileInDialog_()"
    They compile and link went through XCode without errors.
    The files look like they are installed in the right place.
    When launching shake from shell it tells me that the 'plugins.bundle' and 'registerPluginsUI.h' got loaded ok.
    I get new the new buttons in shake(without any icons)
    Would anyone know what I might be doing wrong??
    cheers

    Well there's a few definitive lists on the Skype knowledgebase and forums:
    http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=69289
    There is a better list, but I don't have the link, it's been posted in the Apple Discussions more times than I can count.
    I used a Logitech Quickcam Communicate STX Plus, but many have used others successfully.
    Before you start spending money, there are two things to realise:
    - Your old iMac probably only has USB v1, which severely limits the amount of video and audio (if you get one with a mic) of uncompressed data that can be streamed back to your iMac. For USB v1, devices drawing their power over the USB cable are limited to 4Mbit/s, or 500Kb/s. At say 20 frames per second you can see how poor the image is going to be. Remember the video isn't compressed (for internet transmission say) until it gets back to your computer. Which leads us to secondly,
    - If your iMac is a G3, or a slow G4, the CPU may lack the grunt to encode 320x240 video at 20fps, never mind what you manage with USB.
    I'm not trying to put you off, but it's not going to be fast full-screen perfect quality video like I get from my 2MP firewire camera and encoded on my Mac Pro.

    From one of your prior threads, you appear to be working in Windows 8.1 64 bit with your Premiere Elements 12.
    Where are you when you say that Premiere Elements 12 will not accept your Adobe ID - are you at the Sign In dialog step of the end of the
    installation? Whatever the location, what is being rejected or not recognized specifically - can you tell if it is the Adobe ID or password?
    Are you working with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?

    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and system full control to this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.

  • While my iPod touch was connected to a speaker dock, I found it very hot. Not it will not turn on. I have tried the reset options and they do not work. Neither iTunes nor any of my computers recognizes it when I plug in the usb. Is there a way to fix?

    Now it will not turn on. I have tried all the reset instructions with no luck. Neither iTunes nor any of my computers will recognize it when I plug it in. Is there any chance to get it working or am I out of luck? Please help if you can since I cannot afford to purchase a new one at this time. Thanks.

    Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • I have the new Air Port Extreeme model A1521 and I need to set up port forwarding for HTTP. HTTP is not on the list in the set up. Does anyone know if any of those choices work for HTTP?

    I am on a Windows 7 Ultimate PC and right now there is no Airport utility for setting up the new Apple Extreme so you have to do it on your iPad or iPhone. Does anyone know how to set up port forwarding for HTTP to get to DVR security cameras? There is nothing in the list that indicates HTTP port forwarding.

    Thanks for your reply Tesserax as I did figure this out on my own. It took a bit because all of the options are not clear what they are for like the previous Airport Extreme and Apple does not support or guarantee that port forwarding will work for you application nor did any of the Apple support persons I spoke too have any knowledge for this feature. You also have to fill in the public if you are viewing through someone else's Wi-Fi or on your cell phone carrier network. This new Airport Extreme is a bit different since you cannot use the Airport utility on a PC like the older model and if anyone else is reading this they should be aware that if you do not have an Apple computer, iPhone or iPad and I'm not sure if some of the other network enabled devices like iPod Touch that you must use that can do it, there is no Airport utility for the PC and you would be wasting your money or have to take it back and get another brand wireless router to use if you do not own any of the above mentioned Apple products.

  • I can't sync songs from Ubuntu 10.04. None of recommended apps works for me properly. Any solution?

    I tried using Rhythmbox, Banshee, gtkpod, but any of them won't work for me. Banshee and gtkpod even can not see my iTouch 4G with iOS 5.0.1, Rhythmbox can, but shows, that there is no any content on iPod. Nothing works for me, neither ifuse, nor itunes on Wine. I suppose, that should be  a great problem for Apple, to let its' users feel comfortable with their devices. But no steps are token to solve the problems, that Windows and UNIX systems users face.
    Can anyone advice me, what should I do now?

    iOS5.x devices will hapily work together with Linux, both as Photo-Camera as well as MP3-Device to sync music.
    The version of idevice utils in Ubuntu 10.x is only good for iOS4.x, For 5.x you need a recent version of libusbmuxd,libplist and ifuse,idevice-utils. See the libmobiledevice website or google that term to be directed to howto's.
    I use a ipod touch4 in ubuntu 11.10 with f-spot/shotwell ( free iphoto clones )  and sync via banshee ( free itunes clone ) - zero problems.
    As far as I have read , the next ubuntu 12.04 ( in april, long-term-release ) will have the libs pre-installed, so it should work out of the box. For the earlier OS like yours, there is the post-install needed.

  • Is there any  example snippet for XPath using namespace

    Hi,
    I have used XpathApi class to get the XML node matching my xpath that does not deal with namespaces and it works for me. However, it does not seem to work well when I construct the xpath with namespaces (probably I may be doing something wrong example: //ns:node1/@ns:attr1).
    Can anyone give pointers or some example snippet or some links to handle Xpath with namespaces.
    Also if there is any better approach (Classes or framework) for handing XPath with namespaces then please let me know.

  • I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor.Can we re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive for a old macbook?Just one example.

    I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor who we get to buy all our Apple products from.Can we (university) re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive once the hard drive gets replaced? How can we as the university IT department legally re-install macosx on a imac,macbook, macbookair etc. We would like to load customized macosx imaging software onto the mac machines(imac, macbook, etc ). The university has its own IT workshop and we would like our users to get their laptops back in the shortest turnaround time.

    We're not "Apple Inc." here, just users like you.
    So whatever we say is not an official statement, nor does it in any way, shape, or form represent the official or unofficial policies or opinions of Apple, Inc.
    But I'll offer my quick opinion, having worked in information-systems and technology support in a wide variety of environments over many years.
    Question #1. "NO!"
    No tech support nor repair facility, even if "Apple-authorized", is automatically empowered to install or upgrade OS X on a replacement hard drive just because it is more convenient or time-efficient. When the repair is complete, the student should be expected to (re)install the operating system themself*!
    Nurturing students (and occasionally dragging them, screaming and kicking!) as budding computer-, tablet-, smartphone-users to become digitally self-sufficient is a worthy goal that any institution of higher education must pursue.
    Making students totally dependent upon "Mother Support" for every little thing about their personal digital devices is a grave disservice to both the students and the people who provide the support. Support-mothered students do become life-long digital dependents, instead of taking the required time to learn enough about the care and feeding of their digital "pets" to sustain them. Entreprenurial students may choose to become 'experts' and actually help each other with their devices, and even make money doing it. Some students may even be inspired/coerced to pursue a career in tech support!!!
    *By all means, if the student requests additional help (re-installing the OS), then the University should charge the student a fair price for the service, provided that the user provides the OS on original or upgrade media, or in the case of the 'digital download' upgrades (for OS X 10.7 and 10.8) provides proof of purchase for the OS upgrade, or the original purchase receipt or other recognized documentation for the purchase of the computer showing the version of OS installed when purchased. Students need to learn about personal responsibility, economics ("What is MY time really worth"?), and proper record-keeping too!
    Question #2. Regarding the customized imaging software, provide it on media or a link for students to download and install it. Make it their responsibility!
