Resource editor plugin examples

This chapter contains examples of using the PhAB plugin API to create resource editors. There are two examples:

A string editor

The following is an example resource editor plugin for editing a string resource. This is taken from the actual PhAB source code. Not shown is the PhAB project which contains this source file and implements the widgets within a picture module.

An external editor

The following is an example of using an external application as a resource editor in PhAB. We will use ped to edit the Pt_ARG_TEXT_STRING resource for the PtButton widget.

To use this example, compile the two files listed below, external_multi.h and external_multi.c, into a DLL named external_multi.so.Copy the external_multi.so file into the plugins/resource directory below the location that contains PhAB's executable (usually /usr/photon/appbuilder/plugins/resource).Edit the res_editors.def in the PhAB executable directory to contain the lines:

e=external_multi
p=
F=multi@external_multi.so

Edit the file def_res.def in the same directory to contain the line:

external_multi

Edit the ptpalette.pal file in the same directory to specify external_multi as the resource editor for Pt_ARG_TEXT_STRING for the PtButton widget. To do this, in the PtButton section of the file, change the Pt_ARG_TEXT_STRING line to:

r=Pt_ARG_TEXT_STRING,Button  Text,3011,3002,0,multi/external_multi,NULL
