Hi -
We have some old Frame APIs developed under 7.1 that we want to run in new Frame10 environment... I eventually managed to compile them using VS 2010 and the FM10 FDK libraries, but get the generic "Cannot initialize API client, etc" message when I try and open a document...
Now, I suspect, but don't know for sure, this might be because the FM10 FDK was built using VS2008...
By coincidence, Adobe then sent us a copy of Frame11... I installed this and used the compiled API (figuring that FM11 was VS2010-friendly...), but - unsurprisingly - got the same message.
My next step was going to be to recompile the API using the FM11 FDK libraries instead of FM10... but couldn't find them on the installation disk.
Anyone know where I can find FM11 FDK, please....?
Plan B is to re-compile the API in VS2008 (instead of 2010) using the FM10 FDK and see if that clears the problem.... that will be a pain, I'm sure, and also feels like a backward-step....
Anyone with any experience of recompiling FM7 APIs onto FM10... I'd be very interested in hearing your experiences. We've had to go from using VS6 / FM7.1 to VS2010 / FM10 - quite a jump!
Thanks, Nigel
