PluginGroup

Hi I'm proting some of my plugins vom MacOS X to Windows.
Now I have a big problem with code witch makes use of the PluginGroup Suite
After the folowing code.
sAIArt->NewArt( kPluginArt, kPlaceInsideOnTop, parentArt, &pluginArt );
sAIPluginGroup-> UseAIPluginGroup( pluginArt, g->handleToMyPlugin );
no matter witch API function I'm calling I end up directly in the Illustrator. This means I'm steping through the code with the debugger Step over the to lines above next time I step over an API function it leaves the debugger and jumps to Illustrator without executing any code
after the API Call (jumps from within the API function to Ilustrator and doesn't return to the debugger)
all code works if I create a kGroupArt instead of a kPluginArt or if
I use SetPluginArtPluginGroup instead of UseAIPluginGroup (but this causes problems when the file is saved and reopend)
Any ideas what is wrong?

Well, whenever that happens it means something so bad has gone wrong that Illustrator has given up on your code and returned. I inherited a code base that had this happen quite often years ago but it's much less common in my stuff now. A big part of that is constant vigilance on the return values, and ASSERT()s on the states of various things.
If it's constantly dying on a particular call, the it's usually because something you're feeding that call is just plain wrong. E.g. if you didn't initialize the handle you were expecting to get filled with a new art handle in that NewArt() call and NewArt() failed for some reason, you'd end up passing a handle with a bogus value. That might very well cause the behaviour you're seeing. I'm not saying that's what your problem is, but that's kind of thing that causes the API to barf sometimes.
At any rate, we use a few PluginGroups in our MAPublisher product and I just checked our code -- that's pretty much exactly what we do so I don't know why it would complain. I'd stick in a whole whack load of test code and query very carefully all the variables you use there to verify they're okay (maybe the custom art registration failed for some reason?) If any of THOSE fail unexpectedly, that should give you a pretty strong indication of where the problem lies.
Hope that helps, but let me know if you can't get it working and uncover anything else.

Viewing the art while the anchor is being moving

Hello people,
In Flash, when the user holds the anchor and moves it, he is seeing how the art looks.
In AI, when the user holds an anchor, he only sees the basic path of the art and nothing more; the art is repaint only after the user releases the anchor.
In my case I use PluginGroup plugin and the anchor effects a lot of other art object.
Is there a possibility to view the art while the anchor is being held? I want my Update function to be called not only when the user releases the anchor, but also when he's holding and moving the anchor.
I hope I'm clear enough
Thanks in advanced.

Its interesting how many plugin group questions are suddenly showing up -- I thought we were one of the only ones wrestling with that interesting part of the API! Maybe if more of us show up Adobe will fix some of the bugs in it

I think it's clear enough -- you just don't want to have to wait until they're done dragging before it draws what they're doing.
The first thing you could try is invoking AIPluginGroupSuite::MarkPluginArtDirty() while you're dragging. You pass it the handle of the art and supposedly this sends an update message.
The second thing is: do you actually modify the edit group while they're dragging the anchor? If not, try doing that on the fly, since that should theoretically invoke update messages too.

Some libs can not found

Hello, I'm new to CQ5 and I'm following the "cq5_guide_developer" to practice my first project. It's very smooth until I want to download "cq5libs" from my local CQ5.5 server.
Here are the content of the guide I'm following:
Proceed as follows:
In your file system, create a CQ5 libraries folder called cq5libs. This folder can be created anywhere.
Under cq5libs, create the folders: cq, sling and wcm.
From the system command line go to .../cq5libs/cq and execute vlt co http://localhost:4502/crx /libs/cq/install . to export the libraries stored under /libs/cq/install from the CQ5 server.
From the system command line go to .../cq5libs/sling and execute vlt co http://localhost:4502/crx /libs/sling/install . to export the libraries stored under /libs/sling/install from the CQ5 server.
From the system command line go to .../cq5libs/wcm and execute vlt co http://localhost:4502/crx /libs/wcm/install . to export the libraries stored under /libs/wcm/install from the CQ5 server.
In Eclipse, right-click the ui project, select Build Path, then Configure Build Path. In the dialog select the Libraries tab.
Click Add External JARS..., navigate to .../cq5libs/cq/jcr_root, select all the jar files and click Open.
Click Add External JARS..., navigate to .../cq5libs/sling/jcr_root, select all the jar files and click Open.
Click Add External JARS..., navigate to .../cq5libs/wcm/jcr_root, select all the jar files and click Open.
Click Add External JARS..., navigate to <cq-installation-dir>/crx-quickstart/server/lib/container, select all the jar files and click Open.
Click OK.
I got a error message when I tried to execute "vlt co http://localhost:4502/crx /libs/cq/install " with username and password, but server reponsed like this:
Connecting via JCR remoting to http://localhost:4502/crx/libs/cq
[WARN ] Authentication required to access repository descriptors
[ERROR] checkout: com.day.jcr.vault.vlt.VltException: Unable to mount filesystem
caused by: javax.jcr.ItemNotFoundException: Not Found
caused by: org.apache.jackrabbit.webdav.DavException: Not Found
Dose anybody have any idea about it?

Regarding dependencies what is you are trying to build based on that you can add dependencies like
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.day.cq.wcm</groupId>
            <artifactId>cq-wcm-api</artifactId>
            <version>5.5.0</version>
        </dependency>

Maven plugin for managing CQ5 packages

Hi,
Here's some new documentation that explains how to use the Content Package Maven plugin. You can package and install content from your maven build...for example, in your POM, add goals for package creation and installation to automatically deploy the OSGi bundle that was built. You can perform other package management tasks on remote servers, like rebuild packages, and list, uninstall, and remove them.

Thank you so much for prompt reply!!
I am new to this so I am bit confused.
Would it be possible for you to check my pom file? And let me know if the configuration looks Ok?
Command used: mvn clean package content-package:install -P felix-deploy
