InDesign CC2020 SDK is the version for InDesign 2019

[saraceno-hyphen]

Hello,

When I download what is supposed to be the SDK for InDesign 2020 (plugin_sdk_15.0.0.155.zip), what I get is the SDK for InDesign 2019.
Proved by the fact that the compiled plugin doesn't run on InDesign 2020 but it does run on InDesign 2019.
What's going on there?
Any idea?

Thank you!

Can you let us know where you downloaded it from - and I will request that the correct files be made available?

Kind regards

I downloaded from https://console.adobe.io/downloads/id
Btw, that page doesn't open on the latest safari so I used Chrome.

Looks like you are correct.

Thanks for letting me know!

It would probably be best to contact the support team

I have flagged it - but not sure of what response I will receive.

It seems I've solved it. In the end was my mistake.

I was put off track by the fact that InDesignModel.framework and InDesignModelAndUI.framework in CC2019 SDK have exactly the same size as in CC2020 SDK...

There is still an annoying message always popping out the first time, even with the SDK plugins but that's kinda of minor... See below.

Warning: plugin '...:InDesign_CC2020_SDK:build:mac:debug_cocoa64:SDK:SnippetRunner.sdk.InDesignPlugin' is from build number 155.

Thank you for now.

Unverified theory:

Could it be that your SDK is build number 155 (see source/public/includes/BuildNumber.h) while the debug application's build (see file info) is smaller?

For debug build plug-ins that SDK's build number is passed in the PluginVersion resource as flag kTargetVersion (see objectmodeltypes.fh for the #define) to indicate you have a debug plug-in. I've never had a mismatch so this is just a guess, but the alert sounds like that. You should either use a matching earlier SDK / later debug build, or as thrill seeker use a different number in that PluginVersion resource to suppress the alert.
