Problem getting started

So, it's a little awkward for me, I've been a professional programmer for almost a decade now, but I'm unable to start even with developing my first plugin. I'll try to be as complete as possible in my description, in which case the problem is in the version of VS, misconfiguration, or like that stupid user error.  Is the short version of my problem: I can't even generates the famous skeleton project.

I have AE CS3, so which is the SDK I downloaded and I develop on Win 7 64 using Visual Studio 2010 Express Edition.

I copied the project skeleton and renamed all the files (changin skeleton in my name of the project), then do a case sensitive search-replace ProjectName skeleton and SKELETON of PROJECTNAME.  I did the renaming via Visual Studio find and replace, without a solution open, looking across *. * in the Projname directory.  Then I opened the sln file and it improved the format VS 7.1 to 10 VS.

I then looked in the parameters of the project and concluded that the other directories Include several entries in the form of "... /.. '. /.. ' / Include '.  I had put my copy of the skeleton in a directory where I normally keep my programming projects (IE, not in the SDK directory), so I changed all these entries to absolute paths.  Then, to be double sure, I added the SDK directories "Include" and "Useful" for "Directories Include" project.

When I Isaiah to compile, I get two errors, saying: he can not build the PiPL.r and PiPL.rrc files (I don't remember the file name right something like ProjectName_PiPL.*) because it can't find the specified files.  The caviggia file exists, but not the file .rrc (a .rc file done, but not a .rrc).  In addition, I can't find anything on a .rrc file in the documentation and cannot find any information on basic information of type "How do I Setup build the SDK in Visual Studio" in the documentation or on the web.  I also looked for the custom build steps that are trying to build these files, but cannot find them.  Before each file, the output window says something like "Building the PiPLs" and when I search for this text, it is in the project file, but when I check the steps custom build and events sections in the properties, they are all empty.

I was able to create the effect that I desired for most using expressions in AE, but I could do better as a plugin, and I am really angry that I can't solve this fundamental problem.

Thanks for listening!

Usually, the PiPLs have directories of the different path and they are built using the custom build tool. If you get an error "Betty file is missing", then right-click on the PiPL.r file and go to step (I'm not on a machine windows at the moment, so not sure that one) command line generation / custom and then you can see the arguments that are used to compile the PiPL. So to change paths according to your directory structure and rebuild the project.

In addition, it is not at all advantageous to use absolute paths. Once your project is complicated, there are a lot of hell of a trouble to arrange things. I just copy the entire folder of the SDK for my programming 'place' and work from there. Hope that helps.

  • ASA 5505 problem getting started

    Hello

    New on the firewall:

    I set the ASA to factory default using the default configuration. Then, I plugged my PC on port 7 and Comcast modem into port 0 and got a 192.168.1.2 ip address of my PC. In addition, configured the dhcp protocol to give the dns addresses. Changed the address of the external interface to my static address has been assigned, but still cannot ping the outside interface or Google from PC. Oh, also, between the bulkhead firewall I can ping the address of the gateway-Comcast but no further.

    Where should I start to get this thing working?

    Thank you, Pat.

    Hello

    To be honest, I have not tried.

    I also have an ASA 5505 with Base license at home but I have no need of a DMZ in my network so I have not tried.

    You can always make a list of your INSIDE interface access and manage traffic with it. Its the most frequent way atleast.

    You could basically make following simple configurations

    Note to INTERIOR-IN access list block inside the DMZ traffic

    access list for the INTERIOR-IN deny ip 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0

    Note to access the INSIDE-IN list allow other traffic

    access list for the INTERIOR-IN permit ip 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 any

    group-access INTERIOR-IN in the interface inside

    The foregoing indicates the following things:

    • INTERIOR-IN is the name of the access list
    • Lines of comments in the list to just provide a brief description of the rule below
      • You can insert these comments (or lines to permit/deny) in different locations using the 'line' after the name of the access list
      • For example ' Access-list INTERIOR-IN line 1 note ' add a comment line at the top of the list.
      • On the CLI, the line numbers are visible when you issue the 'show access-list '. 'show access-list of execution' will not show line numbers
    • The line deny stipulates that all TCP/UDP traffic from INSIDE network to the DMZ network range range is denied at the entrance to the interface of the firewall to the inside
    • The line permit allows all traffic from INSIDE network to any other network range. (Essentially allow all traffic to the OUTSIDE interface that all traffic to the DMZ has been refused right on the previous line in the access list.
    • The Access-group line attaches to the access list named INTERIOR-IN to the interface inside
      • The parameter and indicates the direction of the access list is applied
      • In this case its traffic that enters the inside interface

    Hello

    I am new to this forum and new with scripts in Illustrator and scripts in general.

    I have an XML file that contains a number of data sets each composed of a number of text variables that I want to use to create a trading card game.

    Each trading card consists of a text field for the title of the map and a number of icons, which are instances of different symbols

    I wrote a script to create each map and I can load variables in my using javascript: newCard.importVariables (news leader (xmlPath));

    Now, I need to access the data in the data sets to power the card.

    OK, so it takes data sets to be able to get the data of type string, right? This has proved not to be as easy as it seemed

    -----------------

    then to get string data that you used the XML to the file instead, your last sample seems fine, I did the same thing then you posted your sample, I used the xml file

    var xmlfile = File.openDialog("Select a valid XML file","XML:*.xml", false);
    if(xmlfile != null) {
        xmlfile.open("r");
        var xmlstring = xmlfile.read();
        xmlfile.close();
        xmlfile = null;
    } else {
    alert("Error opening XML file.");

    Hi sgodwin2468,

    Make sure that Acrobat Reader DC is updated Release Notes | Adobe Acrobat, Reader.

    If the problem persists, try the solution below.

    The default "save under" Acrobat/Reader DC dialog box is different from the dialogue box you had in earlier versions of Acrobat/Reader, it also allows you to record in the clouds and previous locations that you saved the files. It is possible that when Acrobat/Reader tries to connect to the 'cloud', it runs into problems. You can try to disable this feature to see if this brings your backup in the back of the box: open Acrobat Preferences, then go to the "General" category and uncheck "show the online storage when you save files:

  • Modification of the program of "Getting Started" sample to acquire data of multiple frequencies

    Dear members,

    I am very new to the LabVIEW and worked (mainly through aid of Google) to change one of the samples included with LabVIEW 2010 programs to suit my purpose.

    Essentially, the "Getting Started" program that comes with the LabVIEW 2008 works in the following way

    1. The user runs the program
    2. The user sets the frequency to whatever is needed
    3. User presses the "Trigger" button on the front that gives the values of the two boxes on the front panel
    4. Program stops automatically

    I modified in the following way

    1. I enter the "recurrence interval" and the "maximum rate" in a table to calculate the number of iterations
    2. I then pass the frequency required in the 'constant' through dissociation TI (where I was setting at the start manually the frequency)
    3. From there, the program runs exactly as before
    4. I wrapped the existing set of block diagram in a loop 'For' to repeat several times, with a different frequency every time
    5. Then, I finally write measures in a worksheet in addition to posting on the "façade".

    The problem that I face is that the frequency is not updated in the program. For example, if the last frequency used on the parser a 20 Hz, the program will be to take measures against the same 20 Hz rather than against the correct frequencies several times.

    So, in the spreadsheet I created, I get 1 kHz, 2 kHz... 10 kHz, but the values of impedance values recorded against them were indeed all taken against 20 Hz (or how often I last used by using the non-modified program).

    I suspect that the frequency is updated whenever the user presses the button "Trigger", but since I took this, for purposes of automation and replaced by a constant static in the 'real', it could cause problems. I don't know if this is definitely the problem, but even if this is the case, I can't find a way around it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated as this provides a bottleneck in my project.

    Thank you

  • Getting started with my Canon T1i

    I just bought for me a Canon T1i (body only) for Christmas to use for astrophotography. I'm having some trouble getting started and am hoping to get answers from here.

    First off the coast of British Colombia, I use this for astrophotography I did not buy a camera lens that I'm going to use my telescope than my goal. The problem I have is when I turn on the camera, all I see are the AF points in viewfinder and cannot understand how it get by. How do I see what I'm shooting in the viewfinder?

    The dots you see are engraved on the glass... it is up in the roof of the camera (above the reflex mirror). Of course, you will not see in your images. Also, you will not see the when using Live View (which is how you will be using when astro-Imaging).

    I would to astrophotography, either manufacturing or buying a 'development of Bahtinov mask. It is beyond the end of your telescope (like a scope) and slots cut in it. Point your telescope toward a moderately bright star and it will cause the star to launch peaks of diffraction in the form of an X with a vertical line in the middle. If the vertical spur crosses the middle of X then your scope is perfectly centered... that you focus to the vertical epi will move off center.

    You can make your own by using this Web site to generate a model (you print, then superimpose on a more durable material... and cut out the interfacing): http://astrojargon.net/MaskGen.aspx

    Alternatively, you can buy a pre-made. Many telescope vendors sell them. I use masks produced by Spike-A (they are metallic masks... they seemed to be made of anodized aluminum (or some light metals) approximately 1/8 "thick): http://spike-a.com

    To focus, point a fairly bright star, put the Bahtinov mask on the front of the bezel, switch to the "live view" mode and mount the ISO and slow down the shutter speed (aircraft Canon photo "simulate" exhibition on the display live so you will get a brighter image by turning the crank up the exposure). Adjust the focus on the telescope until the diffraction peaks converge (you may need to enlarge the live view to 10 x to make this easy).

    Once worn, remove the update mask, back the camera exposure settings you want to use for your object, point the telescope on this object (be careful not to touch the focus) and start collecting your images.

    Don't worry 9 autofocus points, that you see when you look through the viewfinder.

    If you do not have alreaady get you one, you may be interested to buy a power adapter for the camera (he slips in as a battery... but fled the current alternative). This is because exposure times a bit long for astrophotography, the combined number of lights, darks, flats, etc. you note will kill batteries fairly quickly. I have a 60Da which is designed specifically for astrophotography and Canon includes the adapter with the camera.

    You also probably want to either a remote trigger cable (so you can use bulb mode) * or * you can use BackYard EOS to control the camera (BackYard EOS only works on Windows... I use a Mac, but I can run in a virtual machine). Also... If you happen to be on a Mac, the cloud cover (by Stark Labs) will control the camera for Imaging.

    Finally... If you completely remove the IR filter, then you might want to watch the 'filter OWC' by Astronomik.com (OWC = Original White Balance). It is a filter that clips in the body and restores the IR filter so that you can use for ordinary terrestrial photography. The "catch" is that with the snap clip snap-in filter, you can not use any Canon EF - S lenses... only Canon EOS "EF" lenses can be used with the clip-in Astronomik filter. In the United States, OPTcorp.com sells.

    Good luck and a sky cleared!

  • "Let's Get Started" upgrade to Windows 10, MB 2613,7

    N °

    Shit I don't WANT immediately. I have 7.1 Windows 64-bit and does not seek to update to 10 immediately I left working them the bugs out rather than be their Guinea pig.

  • After the last updates of windows have problems with start up and now drivers

    Hello

    After the last updates of windows have problems with start up and now drivers. I get an error code 21 when I try to install the drivers AMD apparently missing.

    May 14, last night I had several (automatically) downloaded windows update

    Today, I was unable to boot my computer with Windows - tried the disk check, start checks etc, and eventually had to use System Restore (for help before the critical update to restore).

    Perfection, everything works, but knowing that windows will attempt to redo an automatic update, tried to check online - no one seemed to have a problem and (naivly) thinking I could always do another restore of the system, I rebooted again.

    Same thing worse. Could not do a sys restore either just before restarting or last night. Chose a date earlier (last week) but then lost the USB drivers and pilots display. Downloaded updated but refuses to let my AMD driver install Windows I have a very unpleasant screen... and I must now stop the installation of this update "critical."

    Would appreciate advice how do my installed display driver or whether anyone else has problems following this update
