Hi

I try to use testing inDesign CC 2015 version with this C# asp.net code

 

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

     InDesign.Application app = (InDesign.Application)COMCreateObject("InDesign.Application");

 

     // other code

     ...

}

 

public static object COMCreateObject(string sProgID)

{

     Type oType = Type.GetTypeFromProgID(sProgID);

     if (oType != null)

     {

          return Activator.CreateInstance(oType);

     }

 

     return null;

}

 

When i run this, i receive an InvalidCastException

I try some of different cast sequence but the result is always the same, i can't recover the com object.

InDesign was launch succefully, the object was create, but i can't use it.

 

I search on different topic and forum, try lot of solution but none of them work.

 

Any help?

 

ps : sorry for my bad english, i am french (no, no, don't throw stone at me )

Hi Experts,

 

I am new to InDesign Development, I was an InDesign(CS2) Template Designer few years before.

We are going to develop XML to IDML from the scratch for the simple journal, Please any one advice me for the below questions:

 

1. Is InDesign SDK tool must for XML to IDML?

2. Will I be able to run Java application developed in Windows Desktop, in Mac as well?

3. What are the Plugins required?

4. Any free library is available?

 

Thanks in advance.

[Bug] [Indesign CC 2015 11.4 SDK] API in XMLContentReference not returning the correct output according to use case

August 22, 2016, 5:19 am
$
0

I could find the correct forum to report the SDK bug hence reporting this here. If anyone know of the correct forum/channel to report bugs, kindly let me know.

 

The header file provides us with the below enum to find the type of content associated with the XMLElement.

/** the type of the content */  enum ContentType {  kContentType_Text = 0, /** content is text (PCDATA) */  kContentType_PageItem, /** page item */  kContentType_Table, /** table */  kContentType_TableGrid, /** table row */  kContentType_TableCell, /** table cell */  kContentType_NoContent /** no content is associated with this. Note that this is different than text content that's empty */  };

 

Along with the above enum, the header also provides an API 

XMLContentReference::GetContentType()

which returns one of the above mentioned enum value.

 

But when I traversed the document XML tree, going thru each XML Element, I could always get the correct enum for the type of content associated with the XML Element apart from the cases where actual content was delete from the page.

 

Cases, where the actual frame/text with which the XMLElement was associated has been deleted from page, I was expecting to get kContentType_NoContent, but instead, it always returns kContentType_Text.

 

Also, when I tried API XMLContentReference::IsNoContent()for such XMLElements whose associated frame/text is deleted, It returns false.

Reselection on TreeViewWidgets

Hi all,

 

lately I've been transforming all my listboxes to treeview-widgets - except for minor annoyances, things are going smoothly. One of those small things I'm trying to fix is allowing a reselection of a selected item. Listbox-attributes has a "NotifyOnReselect"-attribute, but i haven't found anything similar for treeview-widgets. Is there anything I'm missing? I'd really appreciate any hint or idea how to solve that issue.

 

Thanks in advance,

I want to read InDesign(.indd) file in c#. I have installed adobe InDesignCS6.

I have added COM reference of 'Adobe InDesign CS6 Type Library' in my c# application.

Code snippet is as follows.

 

        [STAThread]

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            InDesign.Application app = (InDesign.Application)COMCreateObject("InDesign.Application");

            Document doc = app.ActiveDocument;

            Page page = doc.Pages[1];

            TextFrame frame = page.TextFrames[1];

            Console.WriteLine(frame.Contents.ToString());

        }

        {

            // We get the type using just the ProgID

            Type oType = Type.GetTypeFromProgID(sProgID);

            if (oType != null)

            {

                return Activator.CreateInstance(oType);

            }

 

            return null;

        }

 

But the first line itself throwing an following error while type casting output of COMCreateObject method into InDesign.Application type.

 

Error :

Hi everyone,

 

I'm really disappointment with adobe tech support team

waste day-long for chating & calling but they don't know where can download InDesign CC SDK for plug-in development.

many support staff of adobe can't determine the difference between InDesign CC product & InDesign CC SDK and InDesign CS & InDesign CC when send me the link to download is CS version.

also my account(calvin.nguyen@niteco.se) is partner Development and paid money for adobe but can't login to this forum but can login by free-account(trung,vu@niteco.se).

According to the InDesign Developer Center | Adobe Developer Connection then CC SDK is moved to https://prerelease.adobe.com/

to download CC SDK I have to register information and wait 2 days, but I registered over 2day and now I can't access to https://prerelease.adobe.com/ at section "InDesign SDK Access Program"
for CC SDK download.

when I bing all this information to ask Tech support team then they don't known about this process !!!! disappointment!

 

So anyone can let me known where can download InDesign CC SDK??

anyone on the forum, if keeping InDesign CC SDK pls give me a copy, thanks so much

Porting issues with boost::regex when going from CS6 to CC2014 using Xcode

December 15, 2014, 3:09 pm
$
0

I have a working project in CS6 that uses the boost::regex framework that I'm having problems porting into CC2014.

 

I ported this project by using Dolly to create a new project, then coping the old source files across, finally updating the various out dated InDesign API calls that appeared when I compiled. For the use of regular expressions I added the debug and release builds of the boost_regex.framework to the respective targets.

 

Now, for the debug build the new CC2014 projects builds happily. But when I switch to the release build I get a few linker errors. They are all something like:

 

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

"boost::re_detail::get_mem_block()", referenced from:

boost::re_details::perl_matcher<__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<char const *, std::string>, std::allocator<boost::sub_match<__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<char const *, std::string> > >, boost::regex::regex_traits<char, boost::cpp_regex_traits<char> > >::find_imp() in SbRegex.o

 

etc.

 

I did a bit of reading through the boost header files. The odd thing is that the "get_mem_block()" appears to be defined for the pre-processor option BOOST_REGEX_NON_RECURSIVE, while in the project settings for BOOST_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS contains BOOST_REGEX_RECURSIVE. These two settings are mutually exclusive and there's pre-processor logic that blocks having both cases defined at once.

 

This recursive option is used to control how memory is used while processing a regular expression, so seeing a get_mem_block() call (other link errors involve a call to put_mem_block) sort of makes sense being calls that look like something to do with memory.

 

I'm trying to figure out why debug builds, but release build fails. Does this problem look familiar to anyone? Anyone have any suggestions to try to fix it?

Hi,

 

I am trying to compile the sample projects of the InDesign SDK. Tried it on OS X 10.8.5 with Xcode 5 but I always got the following compiler error "Unsupported compiler 'com.apple.compilers.llvmgcc42' selected for architecture 'i386'".

 

If I am using the default compiler Apple LLVM 5, there are many unknown types like "FORCE_INLINE", "CursHandle" or "const_reference".

 

Does anyone knows how to build the sample projects?
