Building the Filter Foundry plugin for Photoshop

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

Notes on source code

Source code, makefiles and IDE projects under GPL license are provided for MPW (Classic & Carbon PowerPC targets), 

CodeWarrior 7 (Classic & Carbon PowerPC, Win32, 68K targets) and mingw32 (Win32 target).

A Photoshop SDK is required (available from Adobe Systems, http://www.adobe.com/).

The SDK was also distributed with Photoshop 6.0 and earlier. 

The source was built with SDK 6.0 but earlier versions of the SDK can be used.

(If building with SDK v4, edit 68k.r, carbon.r, classic.r, and PiMI_68k.r

to remove references to "PIResDefines.h", "PiPL.r" and "PiMI.r" and replace with

a single #include "PIGeneral.r"; also remove "fmtCanWriteTransparency" from PiPL_common.r.)

Before attempting to build, you must edit the makefiles ("FilterFoundry.make" for MPW, "Makefile" for mingw32),

or change your CodeWarrior project's access paths, to reflect the SDK's installed location.

In order to build the Carbon plugin with an SDK prior to version 7.0, it is necessary to edit

the SDK file :PhotoshopAPI:Resources:PIPL.r as follows:

1. find the line "case CodePowerPC:"

2. duplicate the next 15 lines

3. in the copy only, change "case CodePowerPC:" to "case CodePowerPCbundle:"

   and change the 5 occurrences of "pwpc" to "ppcb"

This code has not been tested with the Photoshop v7.0 SDK.

Mac notes

The Mac build requires Apple's MoreFiles library, which can be obtained via

http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/Sample_Code/Files/MoreFiles.htm

Before building with MPW, create the "debug" directory:

	newfolder debug

Depending on how the source files were extracted, it may be necessary to set

the correct Mac file types before attempting to build. In MPW, this can be done as follows. 

First set the current directory to the Filter Foundry source directory, then:

	setfile -t TEXT -c 'MPS ' Å.[chrly] Å.make Å.rc ::common:tt:Å ::common:adobeplugin:Å

This can also be necessary after regenerating y.tab.c and lex.yy.c.

These files are generated from the parser and lexical analyser definitions, parser.y and lexer.l,

by a UNIX (not MPW!) command such as:

	make y.tab.c lex.yy.c

Pre-generated versions of these files (and y.tab.h, which is a byproduct) are included

in the source archive.

If building with MPW, finished binaries are left in the "debug" directory; these should be used

for testing and debugging, as they can be re-built and re-run without having to restart Photoshop.

The finished "universal" binary, which contains separate executables for Classic and Carbon,

is left in the "dist" directory. 

Development systems

While a CodeWarrior 7 project is provided, MPW and mingw32 are recommended 

as they produce much smaller executables.

These industrial strength development tools can be freely downloaded from

http://developer.apple.com/tools/mpw-tools/ and http://www.mingw.org/ respectively.

Mingw32 can be hosted on virtually any UNIX or Linux system, or under Windows.

MPW runs on PowerPC and 68K Macs under Mac OS 9 or earlier, or Classic mode under OS X.
