IDCS4 Mac - Having trouble with a selection suite.

Question

Hello Everyone:<br /><br />I have implemented a very basic selection suite.  Here is what the code looks like in the .FR:<br /><br />  AddIn<br />  {<br />     kLayoutSuiteBoss, <br />     kInvalidClass,<br />     {<br />        IID_IWPCIMAGESSELECTIONSUITE, kWPCImagesSelectionSuiteCSBImpl,<br />     }<br />  },<br /><br />  AddIn<br />  {<br />     kIntegratorSuiteBoss,<br />     kInvalidClass, <br />     {<br />        IID_IWPCIMAGESSELECTIONSUITE, kWPCImagesSelectionSuiteASBImpl,<br />     }<br />  },<br /><br />The actual .CPP implementation is standard boilerplate changed only to render the code unique (in other words, I changed the "My" in "MyCSB" to "WPCImages", etc.).<br /><br />I will provide that code to anyone who really wants to look at it, but it was given to me by Adobe and I really haven't changed it aside from what I have said above.<br /><br />The code works in CS, CS2 and CS3, but in CS4 when I attempt this call:<br /><br />    SelectionSuite -> GetTheSelection(&selectUIDList);<br />    <br />the program errors out with the following message:<br /><br />program received signal "EXC_BAD_ACCESS"<br /><br />Here is the code in context:<br /><br />    <br />    UIDList *selectUIDList = NULL;<br />    IActiveContext *ac = GetExecutionContextSession() -> GetActiveContext();<br />    ISelectionManager *iSelMgr = ac -> GetContextSelection();<br />    <br />    InterfacePtr<IWPCImagesSelectionSuite> SelectionSuite(iSelMgr, UseDefaultIID());<br />    if(SelectionSuite == NULL)<br />       break;<br />    <br />    SelectionSuite -> GetTheSelection(&selectUIDList);<br /><br />Can anyone see where I am going wrong?<br /><br />TIA!<br /><br />John

Try:<br />InterfacePtr<IWPCImagesSelectionSuite> SelectionSuite((IWPCImagesSelectionSuite*)Utils<ISelectionUtils>()->QuerySuite(IWPCImages SelectionSuite::kDefaultIID));<br />if (SelectionSuite == NULL) {<br />  break;<br />}
