Question

Wrong parametrisation of StreamUtil-method calls

I use the xmlcatalghandler sample within my plug-in tp load and parse some kind of order specific configration XML at CS2.

So fare I get permanetly an empty readstream back from StreamUtil::CreateFileStream(catalogName);

I've seem that the method is declared and implmented in the following way:

IPMStream *CreateFileStream(ClassID clsID, const IDFile& sysFile, uint32 mode , OSType fileType , OSType creator)

An overloading method, only with the IDFile paramemeter, can't be found.

This discrepantion I've recogniced also at CS5.5.

So I need hepl to fix that error eighter by:

a) send my the implementation for an overloading one parameter method

b) let me know how the values, to be passes as 2.-4.th parameter to nearly all the methods of StreamUtil. and wher to get them from

Revisit the header, not the implementation.

The declaration has default parameters.

Hi Dirk,

obiusly the method StreamUtil::CreateFileStreamRead has default parameters.

At StreamUtil.h is mentioned even a sample call

Example Code:

<pre>

	InterfacePtr<IPMStream> s(StreamUtil::CreateFileStreamRead(myFile));
	if (s) {
		// read from file
	}
	else {
		// handle error

</pre>

But the Function is never reached. I've implemented a CAlert at that function.

Even when I send all the parameters (values from StreamUtil.h and IPMStream.h,

the test : if (!readStream) {

} is entered.

I can't incorporate StreamUtil.cpp into my project. The compilation throws errors.

What's to do to get StreamUtl usable at my plug-in?

Regards

There is no need to add StreamUtil.cpp, it already comes with some library.

Before your failing call to StreamUtil, please check your file - e.g. if( !myFile.Exists() ) throw "oops!";
