How create plugins in java and access then from the app

How can I create plugins for a Java app. And how do I need in my app to access those plugins??

Generally speaking, any sort of plugin is simply an implementation of some defined or set of defined interfaces that is loaded at runtime and invoked based on some event, configuration or other such mechanism. Java plugins can be implemented simply as .jar or individual classes that implement the interface(s). The application loads these (perhaps using separate, specifically defined class loaders) and is responsible for knowing how and when to invoke their method(s).
The trick, of course, is defining the interfaces to be supported by the app and implemented by the plugin and to define a set of events, etc. that would cause these to be invoked. The mechanics of loading the classes, instatiating the instances as need, etc. is fairly basic Java programming.

    How do I create a new account and get stuff from the old account to the new account

    There are instructions on this page for creating a new account : Set up an Apple ID in iTunes
    Or if you don't want to give credit card details : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
    But you won't be able to transfer purchases from your old account to it, all content that you download from the store will remain tied to the account that downloaded it.

    FCPX crashed and I reported it here. Tom Wolsky suggested I trash prefs, perform an fsck, reboot and redownload FCPX from the App store. The reboot was okay but Safari will not let me access the App Store to redownload FCP. I'm running 10.6.8 but the App Store icon is grayed out. I get a "Safari doesn't recognize addresses starting with macappstore."
    How do I get to the App Store to get FCPX back? I'm using the Trial version now.

    How are you linking to the App Store from Safari? From this page?

  • HT204266 How can I remove my credit card information from the app store?

    How can I remove my credit card information from the app store?  I would like to have an account without the credit card information.
    I would like to put in my credit card only when I am ready to purchase. 

    On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your phone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
    Changing payment info : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
    If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen then do you owe iTunes anything or have any pre-orders/subscriptions due : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366 ?

  • HT201272 I have OS 3.1.3 how do I go about Downloading past purchases from the App Store

    I have OS 3.1.3 how do I go about Downloading past purchases from the App Store?

    You can download the current versions of the apps from the store e.g. via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading. But you may find that the current versions require higher iOS versions than you have on your iPod - in which case have you not got copies of the older versions of those apps on your computer's iTunes or on a backup ?

  • I have downloaded an app which I think is to large to my IPAD as it has read loading for hours now. How do I stop it and clear it from the pad. I have tried the normal holding down the icon but nothing happens?

    I have downloaded an app which I think is to large as it has jammed. The icon just reads loading. How can I stop it and clear it from my  pad????

    Have you tried a reset to see if it resumes after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I bought and downloaded Elements from the app store. Why are most of the items prayed out?

    Why is it that Adobe Photoshop Elements 12, downloaded via the App store shows all items on the file menu grayed out?

    No, you bought Photoshop Elements Editor when you bought it from the app store. No organizer. You don't import photos, merely use File>Open to get them into the editor. You can't access your iphoto library because that's not how you do it. The iphoto library is a proprietary database for iphoto's own use and poking around in it from outside iphoto is the fastest way to corrupt it and lose all your pics. If you use iphoto you have two choices:
    1. Set PSE as your external editor in iphoto and send the photos from there. Save, not Save As and iphoto will remember your original plus the last saved edits, although you must lose the edits to revert to the original again. If you see the Save As window, it's not going to work. You may need to set the PSE prefs>saving files>on first save to Save Over Original to get this working.
    2. Export the photos from iphoto, edit the exports and save them, making all the changes you want, then import the edited pics back to iphoto as new files.

  • How do I remove an old apple ID from the APPS Store

    I gave my 27 inch iMac to my dad and thought I had everything deleted off my IMAC before I gave it to him.  I created an Apple ID for him; however, when we try to download updates from the APP Store it comes up with my old apple ID and asks me for the password to my old apple ID.  We are able to log into ICoud and ITunes using his new apple ID but for some reason the old apple ID keeps coming up in the APP Store box when we try to download an update and the old apple ID is "grayed out" in the APP Store box and we cannot type over it.  If we open up the app store and use the drop down menu, we are able to type in his new apple ID and purchase apps. I have tried signing out of the APP Store and ICloud and iTunes and the APP Store will not let go of my old original apple ID.  An apple ID is nothing more than a "User ID" and I have never heard of a user ID that could not be deleted or changed!!!  I am a former long time PC user and I like the Apple products, but the whole iCloud, Apple ID business seems very complicated to me. I am dreading carrying a 27 inch computer to the Apple store to fix something that should not be so complicated. 

    An apple ID is nothing more than a "User ID"
    Actually, it is more than that. If you read the licensing agreements for any OS version or app obtained at the app store, it will become clear: the license for any app or OS obtained at the app store is not transferable. Hence it is tied to your Apple ID and will remain so - it cannot be removed.
    You are supposed to remove anything obtained at the app store from the computer before giving/selling it. Your father will also not be able to reinstall the OS if need be.
    Which OS version was on the Mac originally? You will need to use internet recovery (Command + Option + R) to erase your drive and then reinstall the original OS (if Lion or later). If it came with an install DVD, boot from that, erase the drive and reinstall. After that, your father can very easily download/update/reinstall any OS or app using his own Apple ID.

  • How do small companies / non-profits purchase software from the app store?

    Hello, I have asked this question to a few Apple Business reps and I seem to get conflicting answers depending on the person I talking to. 
    I work in the I.T. department for a large non-proffit.  We are no stranger to purchasing Apple computers, phones and iPads.  But we are running in to much confusion when it comes to the purchasing and specifically the licensing of Apple Software from the App Store.  For years we have worked with Microsoft and Adobe and have found their licensing (especially for our "one-off" purchases) to be quite helpful.  Each time a user requests a software title, we order it and it is put into our licensing account and is charged to our I.T. credit card.  Accounting has a clear papertrail to follow as to which department gets "billed" for the purchase and everyone is happy. 
    However, with Apple, and the App Store, there is no such program for the type of "one-off" purchases we do.  Sure, there is an "Enterprise" Volume Licensing solution, but the minimum purchase quantity for software licenses is 20.  Most of our requests come in as 1 - 5 copies of a software title.  So, Apple's solution to us has been to create a separate Apple ID for each purchase.  This worked OK until we got up to 5 Apple IDs on one credit card.  This led to yet another phone call to Apple and having them tell me that you can only associate 5 Apple IDs to one credit card... their solution? "Just open up a new credit card for every 5 licenses that you need".  That solution is absolutely impossible for our accounting department.  I called Apple back to see if I could talk to another business rep.  That individual informed me that the only way to get around this is to just purchase pre-paid iTunes gift cards and associate 5 Apple ID's to each one that we buy, then just keep track of them with an Excel sheet.  Again, this is an accounting nightmare.  What happens when there is money left over on a card? ($5 that is unused may seem trivial, but that ads up!)
    Anyway, I'm hoping that somebody has found a decent solution to this, and I REALLY hope that Apple gets their volume licensing program together.  They boast about being ready for the corporate world, yet they still have "solutions" in place that require end users to go out and buy iTunes gift cards just to make sure they remain in software compliance????

    Oooookay...
    I realized that both the iPhoto 9.3.2 and iMove9.0.7 updates are in .dmg format (disk image) up on the support downloads site.  So I downloaded them, and applied the iPhoto update (using ARD), which (supposedly) succeeded.  Then I tried the iMovie update, and I got the message:  "iMovie9.0.7Update.pkg" could not be installed.  Error message: "The version of iMovie installed on this Mac must be updated through the Mac App Store.  Check the Mac App Store to see if an update is available."
    Well, first of all, the iMovie update is over a GB, and no, I'm not going to go walk around to 64 machines and download 64 GBs of network traffic so that each machine can have its own personal special download of the update.  The one update.  To be repeated with every update.  That's what ARD is for!
    AND the iPhoto update which supposedly succeeded didn't apparently get applied -- the App Store still shows the update as being needed, and launching the app and doing an "About" says that it's at version 9.3 (650.39).
    If I were to create an apple ID for the  company, can I attach that one apple ID to all 64 of the macs that the company owns?
    Is there any way to update AppStore software without an apple ID tied to the machine?  Is there some problem with App Store software licensing?  Is it legal to use the software in a business?  Is that why the software is quarantined away from these machines?  Can it only be sold to an individual employee, and if an employee attaches his/her personal apple ID to a company-owned machine is it even legal to use the software commercially?

  • How do I generate PDF and CHM files from the a command line in windows?

    I am trying to set up a PC to build some documents during the night. I was looking for a way to get framemaker to generate PDF and CHM files via a command line in windows? How is this done with FrameMaker 12
    Thanks for the help
    Alex

    Hi,
    The part with generate a PDF via a jsx seems to work OK, except when FrameMaker decides that it will not work anymore. I must say I am not impressed with the stabillity of FrameMaker 12, there is room for a lot of improvement!.
    I have given up on how to figure out how to get FrameMaker 12 to generate chm files via jsx scripts, any pointes are still very welcome.
    The route I have taken is I make a RoboHelp project for each chm files I need to generate. The only thing this RoboHelp project contains is a link to the actual FrameMaker project I want to generate a chm file.
    To make the chm I start RoboHelp with a script that
    1) Opens the desired project
    2) Sets the desired output chm files name
    3) Generates the chm file
    4) And finally quits RoboHelp
    Below is a copy of the jsx in case anyone can reuse anything.  And yes parameters are transfered via enviroments variable. I have later learned there is some way to read the parameters given at a command line but this seems to work so I stick to this for now.
    // Get parameters
    var RhProjName = $.getenv("RH_PROJ_NAME");
    var RhChmName = $.getenv("RH_CHM_NAME");
    var RhLogFileName = $.getenv("RH_LOGFILE_NAME");
    var RhLogFile = new File(RhLogFileName);
    RhLogFile.open("w", "TEXT");
    RhLogFile.writeln("RH_PROJ_NAME : ", RhProjName);
    RhLogFile.writeln("RH_CHM_NAME : ", RhChmName);
    doc = RoboHelp.openProject (RhProjName, 1);
    var sslmngr = RoboHelp.project.SSLManager;
    for(var i = 1; i<=sslmngr.count; i++){
      var ssl = sslmngr.item(i);
      if(ssl.name == 'Microsoft HTML Help') {
        // Set the output location and file name
        ssl.setSpecificProperty("DestinationProjectName", RhChmName);
        if (doc.saveAll(true) ) {
          RhLogFile.writeln("saveAll returned TRUE");
        } else {
          RhLogFile.writeln("saveAll returned FALSE");
        if ( ssl.generate() ) {
          RhLogFile.writeln("ssl.generate returned TRUE");
        } else {
          RhLogFile.writeln("ssl.generate returned FALSE");
      } else {
        // alert ("Found " + ssl.name + " dont do anything");
    doc.saveAll(true);
    RhLogFile.close();
    RoboHelp.closeProject();
    RoboHelp.quit();

  • How do I remove unwanted (eg: Skitch) updates from the App Store?

    Skitch 1.0 is great.  Evernote bought Skitch and produced a stripped down version of Skitch and called it 2.0.  The unanimous assessment of the update is that it is a major step backwards.  I usually click 'update all' apps for my iPhone/iPad because I have so many.  I was hoping to do the same for my Macintosh applications, but as long as Skitch keeps showing up with it's updates, I can't do that.  How can I keep Skitch 1.x running on my computer, and not see Skitch 2.x updates in the App Store?
    Thanks.

    To be clearer,
    - Right-click App to open contextual menu
    - Select "Show Package Contents"
    - Look for a folder named _MASReceipt
    - Remove it or better, rename it or copy it to some plce to have a backup copy
