Utility like NPAPI Spy for ACTIVEX? - plugins

just wondering if there is any open source implementation for an ActiveX web plugins similar in functionality to the one implemented by NPAPI Spy utility available at:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/modules/plugin/tools/spy/
Thanks,
Giovanni

AFAIK, no such utility exists, however you could probably use Process Monitor or Process Explorer to find most of what you need. If you could give us a more specific idea of what problem you're trying to solve, we may be able to help you better with another solution.

how would I find all the places in all blueprints where there is a call to ParallelFor()?

I'm trying to fix some incorrect calls to ParallelFor() that are appearing in performance profiles. I can't seem to find it in the Blueprint scripts in the Unreal Engine 4 project I'm working with. The Unreal documentation is sparse, and only tells me how to use it in C++.
Any ideas? I'm really concerned that I can't do a plain-text search for functions like this inside the Blueprint scripts. The Unreal Engine dev forums didn't help. The existing search mechanism via the search boxes appears to be for variables.
Using grep in the project folder fails.
There are many factors to muti-threading speedup, number of cores, utilization, memory, scheduler...
The problem may be external to the code.
On to the question:
Many of the built-in blueprint functions are implemented natively in C++.
I would suggest looking at the profiler call stack(tree view); Follow it up to something named similar to a node. This technique may fail for cross thread dispatches.
You will have to download the source code and look there to find the calls.
The other way is to build a debug build(with symbols) of the game and attach a debugger to the process.
The call was built-in to the framework in my case.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
You can easily search trough all your BPs from withing the editor with
CTRL+SHIFT+F or window -> developer tools -> find in blueprints.
You get also there from within a blueprint, CTRL+F enter what you'r looking for, and on the right side there is kind of a book symbol in the same line where you can search all blueprints.

Is there a way to automatically create doc for classes and Methods in OpenEdge Developer Studio?

OpenEdge Developer Studio is built on Eclipse where usually the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+J can be used to create JavaDoc for classes and methods.
For Progress however I am unable to figure out how this should work.
Could someone help me out here?
To create an html documentation (like http://help.consultingwerkcloud.com/smartcomponent_library/release/) use this here:
https://github.com/Riverside-Software/pct/wiki/ClassDocumentation
https://github.com/Riverside-Software/pct/wiki/HtmlDocumentation
For documentation comments in PDSOE, I'd suggest you have a look at:

It's going to be commercial. I'm beta-testing it since a while. And it's working really, really nice.

Does Leksah have hlint, hoogle integration?

Does leksah support any kind of plugins? Will it? Does it have any plugins built in, such as hlint, hoogle, pl, djinn? If not, is there an easy way to integrate these things?
Does leksah support any kind of plugins?
Current version not.
Will it?
I am working on a major restructuring, to build Leksah from plugins from the very base.
https://github.com/leksah/billeksah/wiki
Unfortunately this project may take some more time to reach delivery,
but hope it will pay off.
Does it have any plugins built in, such as hlint, hoogle, pl, djinn?
It has simple support for lookup of hoogle docs.
If not, is there an easy way to integrate these things?
Help is very welcome.
Well someone ought to answer. Here's my best guesses:
Does leksah support any kind of plugins?
Nope
Will it?
It's open source (GPL 2)...get to it! (Doesn't look like this feature is on any roadmap or anything.)
Does it have any plugins built in?
According to the manual page 32:
With the Docu button you can initiate an external search in a browser with e.g. Hayoo
or Hoogle, depending on the configuration in the Preferences.
That's about all I could find.

Does anybody know if JSystem can be used for testing Java applets?

Does anybody know if JSystem (open source code based on JUnit and ANT for automated tests) can be used for testing Java applets? All I need is Yes or No and if possible a link for reading about it. If you are familiar with another tool that can be used, please give me a name or a link to reading about it.Thanks.
Not sure about JSystem but you can take a look at this tool code.google.com/p/fest/ which supports applet testing, refer: http://fest.easytesting.org/swing/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=FEST-Swing.FESTAppletViewer
Of course.
it supports both Autoit usage or Swing apps, using jemmy.

How to extend windows explorer functionality?

How would I go about extending the functionality of windows explorer in XP?
Is there some way whereby I could create a "plugin" of some sorts that could hook into explore.exe to add additional folder browsing functionality? What language could I use to achieve this?
This is an expansion of a question I asked here.
There's a great series of tutorials on CodeProject which might help you. C++ is required there.
There is an old O'reilly book called 'Visual Basic Shell Programming' that explains the API's for this in some detail. While taken from a VB6-centric point of view, the API's are all exposed through COM, so they can be used from any language that supports this. This article discusses using the windows shell with .Net and a tool to build an interop assembly.
