Need "Developer Tools"

I have been struggling to convert Windows Eudora eMail to Mac Eudora eMail, and have enlisted the aid of one of the original Eudora developers to help me with what has turned out to be a difficult task.
He says I need a "developer tool" that can "set filetype to TEXT" for the Eudora mailboxes, and then Eudora on the Mac should recognize them. He says I should be able to find this tool on the OSX installation DVDs. He directed me to the info on this web page:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~jlpoutre/BoT/Mac-OSX tifffor_ABBYYFineReader.html
(hope that URL works)
I am not sure what the "developer tool" is, exactly, nor where to find it on the OSX, nor how to install it if I can find it. Can somebody please direct me to the right utility? Is it something called "Terminal" ?
Does anybody even know what I'm talking about? If so, please type slowly... this is all like really new to me and I really don't want to do anything that will trash my OS.
Thanks,

While you can use the developer tool that is suggested, you can also use AppleScript for this. No need to install anything.
Open the Script Editor (Applications/AppleScript). Copy and paste the following into a Script Editor window--
tell application "Finder"
set x to selection as string
set file type of file x to "TEXT"
set creator type of file x to "CSOm"
end tell
Save the file with some appropriate name. You can save it as a "script".
To use,
1. open the script with Script Editor
2. find a Windows mail file you want to work with and highlight it.
3. go back to the Script Editor and click "Run"
The Eudora file that you highlighted will have its file type set to TEXT and the creator type set to CMOs which is the unique identifier for Eudora.

I want to use Xcode to create an app and i need developer tools. so i need to join the devoper program only problem is I'm not 18

You can get Xcode without joining the developer program. Just go to the App Store and download it (it's free).
You'd only need to join the Developer program if you want to put your app into the App Store, this is for OS X.
You will need to join the Developer program if you want to develop for IOS. In that case you will need a parent or guardian.

Do I need the QT development tools?

Hey,
I've installed some KDE apps recently and I've noticed that QT development tools have also been installed. Do I need these? Or can I remove them?
thanks

That's really a question only you can answer. If other packages depend on it, Pacman will say so when you try to uninstall it.

Do I need xCode and developer tools?

Hi,
Do I need Xcode and the developer tools? I'm not a software developer and don't see a time when I will be. I did a quick check and the Developer file on my HD is taking up roughly 6 GB of space. If I don't need them, I'd love to free up that space for other things (i.e. movies, music, photos, etc.). If I don't need them, what is the best way of going about getting rid of them?
Thanks

You dont need them at all if you're not a developer or do not use any of the utilities for troubleshooting or any other purpose. To uninstall the developer tools, open the Terminal and enter the following command:
sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools -mode=all
Supply your password, and you should be all set once the script is done running.

DocFlex/Javadoc 1.5.6, a multi-format doclet development tool and more

DocFlex/Javadoc is both a multi-format Javadoc Doclet and a rapid doclet development tool, which allows easy creation of professional quality Java API documentation generated by Javadoc in various output formats.

KEY FEATURES
Template-driven doclet architecture
- Actual doclets are created in the form of special templates interpreted by the DocFlex Doclet, which is the template interpreter / output generator wrapped in the form of a Javadoc Doclet.
- The high quality graphic Template Designer allows you to visually design most of things, whose development was possible so far only by direct Java coding.
- The templates are designed independently on a particular output format. All formatting is specified in some universal way using properties of template components. During the generation, it is rendered with the suitable features available in the selected output format.
- The elaborated support of template parameters (including multivalued list parameters). The parameters are defined and accessed within templates to adjust dynamic properties of template components. Most of options previously used to control an ordinary doclet now simply become template parameters!
- The possibility to call templates from one another. This feature (along with the template parameters) makes possible re-using the same templates for different tasks as well as organizing template libraries.
Data processing
- The entire Doclet API is represented in the form of a virtual XML document (called Doclet DSM), on which the designing and processing of all templates is based.
- Sophisticated capabilities for data querying and sorting based on an extension of XPath.
- Full support of new Java 5.0 language features: Generic Types, Enums, Annotations.
- Simultaneous support of Java 1.4 and Java 5.
Creating hyperlinks
- Generation of an extensive network of hyperlinks interconnecting the whole documentation.
- The hyperlinks can be generated in all output formats that support them (this currently includes HTML and RTF).
- The universal way of defining documentation cross-links based on the link/target keys specified in templates.
- In RTF, the cross-links can be generated in the form of page number references, which effectively makes them usable even in the printed documentation.
- In HTML, the possibility of loading several frame windows from a single hyperlink at once.
Universal support of various formatting techniques
- text formatting: fonts, colors, borders
- paragraph formatting: margins, pagination control, borders, colors
- border formatting: styles (solid, double, dashed, dotted), thickness, colors
- tables: arbitrary cell layouts, borders, nested tables
- lists: bulleted, numbered, delimited
- document fields (RTF): page number, number of pages, TOC, etc.
- page formatting: size, orientation, margins, headers/footers
- formatting styles
- rendering of embedded HTML, which means interpreting in non-HTML output formats (such as RTF) the HTML tags embedded in text data (e.g. documentation comments). Almost all HTML tags practically usable in doc-comments are supported.
Inserting images
- statically specified in templates
- dynamically, obtained by <img> tags found in Java comments
- supported image formats: GIF, PNG, JPG, WMF, EMF, BMP
Output formats
- HTML (both framed multi-file and single-file output)
- RTF (version 1.6 - supported since Word 2000).
- TXT (plain text), which may be particularly useful for various utilizations of the Java code information provided by the Doclet API generate XML files by it, or SQL files to import into a database).
Standard Template Set
- The ready-to-use Standard Template Set included in all editions of DocFlex/Javadoc allows you to immediately generate:
(*) The framed HTML Java API documentation similar to that generated by the standard Javadoc.
(*) The same documentation packed in a single HTML file.
(*) The unmatched quality RTF JavaDoc.
- Special features supported by standard templates:
(*) Excluding classes/methods/fields by custom tags and annotations.
(*) Selective omitting of package qualifiers.
(*) Selective documenting of custom tags (similar to -tag option of Standard Doclet).
- By modifying the standard templates, you can quickly customize the generated documentation according to your needs.
Doclet GUI
- Besides command line options, DocFlex Doclet supports an alternative user-friendly way to control the template-based doclets interactively -- the high quality Doclet GUI.
- The Doclet GUI starts with the Generator Dialog, where you can specify all general settings (such as the main template, the output format and the output directory), start the generation, track its progress and stop at any moment you need.
- The grid-tree-based Parameter Inspector invoked from the Generator Dialog for a selected template allows you to view the descriptions of all template parameters controlling the doclet and set their values according to the parameter data types.
- The generator options specific for the selected output format can be set in the corresponding Format Option Inspector (also invoked from the Generator Dialog).
- Once the generation is finished (or cancelled), you can start it again with different settings or a new main template without restarting the whole Javadoc.
Integrations
- With any system that runs Javadoc (in particular, see below)
- Apache Ant
- Apache Maven 2
- Eclipse
For lots more information, see DocFlex/Javadoc homepage: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_javadoc/]
AVAILABILITY
DocFlex/Javadoc comes in two editions:
(1) The full edition called "DocFlex/Javadoc" as it is. This is commercial software, which includes all the implemented functionality.
(2) The reduced freeware edition called "DocFlex/Doclet". It includes only the output generator and can be used as an interpretor of any custom templates. It also includes the standard template set, which allows you to instantly use it as an HTML doclet (similar to the standard one, however with some special features) plus an excellent quality RTF doclet.
Both editions are available for downloads on the page: [http://www.filigris.com/downloads/]
THIS VERSION
New features:
- The template interpretor works 15-20% faster
- Improvement of RTF output
- Multi-valued (list) template parameters
- Custom elements
- Standard Templates: Selective documenting of custom tags (similar to -tag option of standard doclet)

WHAT IS DOCFLEX?
DocFlex is an innovative technology for development of high quality template-driven documentation/report generators by any kind of data obtained from various software applications via the Java APIs they provide.
MAIN CONCEPTS
The whole DocFlex technology is based on four generalizations:
(1) The mapping of an entire Java API onto a virtual XML-like representation made of some elements and attributes so as to process any such a representation in a universal way using techniques borrowed from the field of XML, like XPath (or more precisely, a conceptual analogue of XPath with some extensions not present in it).
(2) The abstract formatting concept based on four layouts (flow of text, flow of paragraphs or paragraph-like objects, tables and lists), which can be rendered in most modern document formats (e.g. HTML, RTF, XSL-FO etc.)
(3) The automatic generation of hyperlinks (or their page number reference equivalents) by matching the sets of keys produced from certain natural properties of the things (entities) being documented and hyper-linked.
(4) The representation of the object controlling structure of the output generator (made on the first three principles) in the form of a plain-text template with a possibility to create and edit such templates using a graphic Template Designer, which visualizes the controlling objects (now becoming template components) in a form resembling the output they will produce.
OTHER APPLICATIONS
In fact, DocFlex/Javadoc is not the only application of DocFlex technology. The following is a summary of other DocFlex software:
DocFlex/XML
The SDK and runtime environment for rapid development and execution of template-driven automatic documentation/report generators by any data obtained from XML files.
This is currently the most complex and advanced application of DocFlex technology. Actually, this tool can be considered a powerful alternative to XSLT. At least, it is definitely able to do what XSLT apparently not (for example, see XSDDoc below). We will publish a more detailed comparison DocFlex/XML versus XSLT with the next DocFlex/XML release, which is coming very soon.
DocFlex/XML home page: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_xml/]
DocFlex/XML | XSDDoc
A template set for DocFlex/XML that implements a high quality W3C XML Schema documentation generator in HTML and RTF output formats.
For more details, please see: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_xml/xsddoc/]
DocFlex/XML | WSDLDoc
A similar template set for DocFlex/XML that will implement a high-end WSDL documentation generator.
This product is not released yet.
DocFlex/Together
A template-driven documentation generator for [Borland Together|http://www.borland.com/us/products/together/] (which is a UML modeling tool).
This is the earliest application of DocFlex technology and probably the most beautiful one. It works only with Together Architect 1.x, which is now obsolete. Unfortunately, since Together 2005, Borland eliminated any open APIs (for unknown reasons). Because of this, further development of DocFlex/Together was impossible.
DocFlex/Together home page: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_together/]
See also examples of the UML documentation generated with it: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_together/examples/]
The future DocFlex/UML is going to generate something like this as well.
DocFlex/UML
A template-driven UML documentation generator based on [Eclipse EMF|http://www.eclipse.org/emf/]. This tool is in early development stage yet. In a sense, it will continue DocFlex/Together with the focus on integration with other UML tools that use Eclipse EMF.

Now, DocFlex/Javadoc v1.4 has been released specifically dedicated to Linux (Mac OS X) support:
(*) Some early bugs have been fixed, which prevented it working properly under Linux.
(*) A special RTF option was introduced to generate OpenOffice.org friendly RTF (see below)
(*) Improved support for external document viewers.
(*) Now, DocFlex/Javadoc software includes the shell script files prepared to quickly install and launch it under Linux
New RTF option
A new RTF output option "Tune output for MS Word� has been introduced. This option, actually, allows switching off that very tuning (which until now was the default mode) to produce an RTF friendly to open with other non MS Word applications, e.g. OpenOffice.org Writer under Linux.

I'm ready to drop Firefox because Scratchpad repeatedly opens anytime I have to Capitalize anything and at no time have I ever used the Web Developer tool

Have used Firefox for many years on multiple computers. On the home desktop, anytime you need to CAP a letter, Scratchpad opens instead. Every single time!
This is only having on this one computer, none of the others.
I have completely uninstalled, cleaned and purged Firefox from this computer multiple times. I have run multiple virus checks. I have done the Firefox reset multiple upon multiple times.
Yesterday I completely uninstalled every scrap related to Firefox I could find on the system, did a system clean to get rid of hidden and duplicate files, and with what I hoped was a clean system, reinstalled the latest version of FF. Same problem.
WHY is Scratchpad coming up anytime I hit the Shift key?
Somehow the developer tools and Scratchpad still show up and ultimately the problems start again.

Hello Mark,
I can understand your frustration with this issue - especially after you are running into this issue after resetting your computer too.
Can you please check if the scratchpad comes up, if you disable the setting ''devtools.scratchpad.enabled'' by setting the value to false. You can do this by following the instructions in the Mozillazine about modifying the configuration of Mozilla [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config Editing About:Config]
Thank you

How do I save changes I make in the developer tool

I am just teaching myself to build a word press website. I find many times that the IE development tool makes it much easier for me to make changes to the site and experiment with different things. My problem is one I make changes I need I always loss the
changes. Is their a way to save the changes I made so they stay permanent on the website I am building. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Avery

I afraid you cannot save these changes with the F12 developer tool. You could copy these changes to an external editor.
Note The Changes tab will clear if you close the F12 developer tools, but the changes you made with
DOM Explorer persist until you refresh the webpage.

XSL Development Tools?

Hello,
We have been using the template builder add on for MSWord for our BIP needs thus far.
However, we have come to the conclusion that we need a more robust development tool geared for XSL development.
As we are all fairly new to the "XSL development world" we would like to hear what others are using and what they would recommend.
Thanks,
Scott

In case anyone has any more feedback about XSL development tools I have listed the ones we are looking at below.
These are roughly in the order of our first look/first impressions of what we are likely to use. I realize that Oracle can not officially endorse any of these. That is why I am hoping others not affiliated with Oracle will give their feedback on these tools.

EditX
Exchanger XML Editor
oXygenxml
Thanks in advance.

Plug a Swing-based development tool into Eclipse

This article teaches you how to integrate a stand-alone Swing-based editor into the Eclipse Platform as a plug-in. Using simple techniques, you can share resources between the Swing tool, the Eclipse Platform, and various SWT widgets -- and these resources can communicate through mutual awareness. Tool vendors who want to bring Eclipse-based development tools to market with a minimal amount of re-coding will also find this article helpful.

I am working since a few months on this topic. We have a Swing Application
which we want to integrate in Eclipse. We decided to do this in little
steps. One of the first is to integrate the application as far as possible
over the Swing Bridge. And the results are really good. We integrated our
editor, some views, resources and the most actions so far. We hope to
release our Alpha version in February.
The really nice thing is, that we could take allmost all our existing Swing
Wizards and so on from the old application. Only some wizards for Project
and new Resource creation had be made new. The communication between AWT /
Swing and SWT is also runnig well. All events (Mouse, Keys..) are being
transfered from one toolkit to the other. The only problem is the
synchronization of the Swing and SWT thread. You often get "Invalid thread
access" messages. But this is solvable.
Gentleware also integrated their modelling tool Poseidon in Eclipse over the
Swing-Bridge. If you wanna see how it looks like, here the download page:
http://gentleware.com/downloadcenter.0.html
You need the Professional version. Their integration is not so nice (I think
they did it really fast). But I think they work on it in the future. But
here you can see that it works ;-)

Quartz Debug (Developer Tool)

I downloaded and tried to use Quartz Debug, a developer tool (not actually included in Xtools: I downloaded it as a stand-alone).
My goal was to improve screen resolution on screenshots (for use in KeyNote). It seems to have corrupted my system (not sure: did a clean reinstall eventually). Has anyone had experience iwth this program? Is it safe or unsafe to use? (I assume it modifies the system: I thought it would only do a temporary modification).
It could be that you need to download XTools first then run the program (it never responded correctly for me).
And it could be that I should be in the Developer Forum, but I don't have permission to post in the appropriate group.
Many thanks. JIP

The developer's tools are on your Tiger DVD, you don't need to download them unless you want to download the update to the most recent version. The Quartz Debug tool is not part of CHUD.

Since updating to OS X Mavericks I get a continuous update request for command line developer tools. How do I stop this?

Since installing OS X Mavericks, automatic updates keep producing download demand for Command Line Developer tools 6.0 and 6.1. I don't need these but cannot seem to stop the updates available, even if they are downloaded and installed. Can anyone tell me how to stop this?

SAP Development Tools differences?

Dear all
I am new to SAP.
I want to learn development tools.
Why?
I want to create reports
I want to make new screens inside SAP
I want to make some validation on existing SAP screens
I want to integrate SAP with Other running application
I want to Send data to SAP
I want to get data from SAP
From my reading the tools I found are:
ABAP
.Net
Powerbuilder
May be there are other tools that I don’t know.
I need to know what are the limitation of ever tool in terms of the above points?
Thanks,

Hello Ramzy
You're actually approaching this from what I'd say is an incorrect angle. I think the first step is to determine what SAP product you are actually interested in. Then, see if the product has an SDK (not all SAP products have an SDK) and then see what development tool you need to work with the SDK (VS .NET, Java, PB, etc., etc.).
In this case you posted your query to the "NET SDK Application Development in BI Platform" Topic Space. Each SCN Topic Space has an Overview. The Overview in this Space:
As you can see, the products are; SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise, SAP BusinessObjects Edge, and SAP Crystal (Reports) Server. Therefore if you are interested in these products, you would post your queries here as Discussions. If you are interested in other SAP products, you will have to find the correct SCN Space for those. The following document should help you there:

Development Tools for R12

Hi,
I am positive this has been answered before on Metalink but I can't seem to get the definitive answer from metalink nor can I find one in the Forums here. So, here is the question again.
We will be upgrading from 11.5.10 to R12.1.3 on Linux later this year. I am in the process of getting all the following development tools necessary for our R12 development on Windows clients. So, I need to install the appropriate patched versions of these dev tools on Windows 7/Windows XP machines to work with our Apps R12.1.3 going forward. Metalink suggested that I follow the link in note "437878.1 - Upgrading OracleAS 10g Forms and Reports in Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12". I still could not understand whether I need to install Developer Suite 10.1.2 and apply the patch listed in the note or Install Oracle Application Server 10.1.2 (from OTN?) and apply the patch listed in the note to bring the tools up to 10.1.3 version. This is where my confusion lies. Again this is separate from the middle tier software for R12 - this is for client development that will then be FTPed to middle tier and compiled there/
1. Oracle Forms/Reports Builders - Do I download Developer Suite 10.1.2 or App Server 10.1.3?
2. Oracle BI Publisher - What version and where do I get this from?
3. Oracle JDeveloper for OA Framework - What version and where do I get this from (Metalink or OTN)
Thanks in advance for any leads or direction.

Venkat

How to uninstall Command Line Developer Tools

Hello, After upgrade to OSX Mavericks by mistake I downloaded Command Line Developer Tools. I'm not a coder, just a graphic designer and I'm not gonna need it. It's about 300 MB size and I don't want it. The worst part is that its the second time Apple Update shows a new update for this. If I try to move Library/Developer/CommandLineTools folder to trash I'm asked to provide my admin password, so I don't do it because I'm affraid to harm my OS. I've been searching on the web for an answer close to my case but only found uninstall tips related to Xcode that don't apply to me. Can you please help me to get rid of this Command Line Tools? Thanks a lot in advance!

Do it. It will not harm OS X, and you will be removing the Command Line Developer tools. Nothing will happen to your Mac, but you should make a backup of your files before modifying system files.
