Seeking an working XCode 2.x Template to build a plugin

[hitechrolf]

Hi,

I've started playing around with the 4D Plugin Wizard. The dummy code generated by this database is fine. However I'm using the XCode 2.x and the project will be, as proposed by the IDE, converted. From now on I stuck.

I can build the plugin but it won't be recognized by 4D 2004. So my question is,  to all the plugin developers out there, who is willing and sending me a dummy project for XCode 2.x which I can build and running from the beginning ? Or has anyone a tipp how to get it running?

thx rolf

Rolf,

I think you might be compiling for the 'wrong' platform. If on an Intel Mac, by default, you will get only Intel native code. 4D 2004 is PPC via Rosetta.

Go to the target in XCode and select the plugin. Choose File - Get info and choose the Build tab. Change the Architectures property to Standard (32-bit Universal) to get a universal binary. Or other... ppc to get a ppc only plugin.

Sorry Guys to bother you again

Still looking for some help to get a silly dummy plugin running on intel mac. An here is what I did and discovered:

- The Plugin Wizard creates a project file for the version 1.2

- Opening this with project XCode 3 coverts it, fine. 

- What I've discovered is, that the header file "4DPlugin.h" is not included in the project file. Which I added manually. Probably correct or not ?

Second I'v adjusted the Info Settings:

- "Valid Architectures" to ppc. I removed the other options "ppc64, ppc7400, ppc970, i386 and x86_64"

- Further more I checked the option "Architectures for to build" to 32 bit.

However building the plugin 4D does not know it. Did I miss something?

So, one more call has someone a demo project where I can see the correct settings and where 4d can use it?

Thanks in advance

To let you know that people do at least listen...

I have never created a mac intel native plugin for 4D 2004, mine run in rosetta along with 4D.

I don't think that I can be of much help for your setup.

For my 2004 plugin development I still use code warrior (not supported for a long time). I use a v6.8 generated plugin project to which I had to rewrite (wrap) some of the header files to get them to work properly, especially with array parameters.

I'm hanging on to this patchy but working method of creating plugins until I migrate to v11. For the v11 migration I will switch my Mac compiler to use XCode and I will use Visual C++ for the windows compiler.

I don't know what you are missing.

I just buikd a "blank" Plugin and noticed the same.
Adding it or not didn't made any difference, as the header was included
with the .c file.

I'd say this was a misstake.
For me it just worked "out of the box".

You might want to adjust the SDK to 10.4 universal instead of using
"Current OS", which probably is 10.5
