Thanks,

FileMaker plug-ins are regular Win32 DLLs. The .fmx extension is just a custom extension. I'm not sure you can produce such a DLL with Visual Basic or C# (but I'm not an expert in these); you might have to use Visual C++.

Check out http://www.dotnet2fm.com/ They provide a tool to write filemaker plugin in c#

How can I configure Visual Studio Code to recognize files with extensions other than .js as Javascript

We have a QA tool (SmartBear's TestComplete) that uses javascript as a scripting language, but names the file with a ".sj" extension instead of ".js". I would like to use Visual Studio Code to edit those files, with all the nice intellisense and other tooling that comes with it, but I can't figure out how to configure it to recognize .sj files as javascript files. Any ideas?
Answering my own question, just for future readers that may be searching for the same thing.
According to a tweet from #code, this is not yet possible, but is coming "soon".

CSS property wizard in PHP project using NetBeans

Long time reader, first time asking a question.
Most of my development work has been in .NET using Visual Studio. Recently I took over maintenance of a website built on PHP and downloaded NetBeans as an IDE.
NetBeans has a very nice CSS property wizard for HTML projects that highlights the CSS rules in use for a particular element and lets you edit the rules directly. However, this doesn't appear to be available for PHP projects, even for pure HTML files within the project. Is that correct, or am I just missing some configuration? I can't seem to find any confirmation either way in the documentation or forums. (It would be unfortunate if it didn't work... it's a really useful feature.)
Thanks,
Terry
If you are referring to the visual CSS editing support that works with Google Chrome and the WebKit browser embedded in NetBeans, then this feature will be available for PHP projects in the upcoming NetBeans 7.4 release.

Hope this helps,

Objective C editor for windows

I need to review the iphone application code written by my colleague, but unfortunately I have only a windows PC at present.
It would be nice if some one suggest a tool like 'source insight' which can be used to navigate through the obj-c code in a windows environment.

Dhanesh
here is the way to do what you want
Installing and using GNUstep and Objective-C on Windows
also for cross platform

try this it is awesome.
Try Notepad++, it seems to recognize Objective-C syntax.

Adding licensing support for Eclipse PDE

I have built an eclipse plugin which basically makes writing Java GUI applications as easy as using a 4GL programming language (Oracle Forms, Visual Basic etc). The plugin generates no GUI code but rather metadata which is parsed at runtime. I am building in a trial licence within the plugin but which will stop the plugin from working when the trial licence has run out. I am unsure of the best way to implement this. MAybe to stop one of the editors opening. I have managed to integrate my licensing software (Protection! from JProductivity), which will get called when the user tries to open on of my editors. But how can I stop an editor from opening?
Any help on this subject would be much appreciated!
Editor and its type alway is contributed by extension. So there is no good way to remove this extension besides early startup your bundle. But I don't think it's a good practice.
So the better way is checking your license in EditorPart.init(IEditorSite, IEditorInput) or createPartControl, throw the exception in init call or not create any widget in createPartControl if the license is invalid or expired.

Generic code snippets or templates in Eclipse

I'm currently evaluating eclipse after using Textmate for all my development for many years. What I miss in Eclipse and what I can't find any solution for are some kind of generic templates:
I'm using PDT for my JavaScript and PHP development, and it supports code-templates. however , in my projects I'm writing large amounts of shell-scripts, yml-configuration-files, xml-files, gnu make scripts, etc., too. I'm writing source-documentation for all these scripts using a generic syntax (similar to robodoc) and you can save much time, when you can insert the doc-blocks using templates. however, besides PDT not all of the editor-plugins support templates.
Is there some generic way of storing code-snippets/templates in eclipse, which will work across all editor-plugins? I think it should be possible to implement such using eclipse monkey -- however, it seems development of monkey was stopped?
I'm using Eclipse 3.4.0.
If you have the web tools (WTP) plugins installed you should have a Snippets view which is an editor-independent place for collecting reusable code snippets. You can create and place your snippets in there and can separate them using 'drawers'. Double clicking or dragging a snippet item will insert it in the active editor.
The web tools user guide has a section about this view.
Why don't you try Snip2Code plugin?
It is a general purpose snippet manager platform that you can add to your Eclipse and will store your snippets on the cloud, so that you don't have to sync them when you reinstall Eclipse or move onto another machine.
