[Typo3-dev] Image Processing API - getting rid of IM

[Michael Johnston]

Sure, at http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/fireworks/  
there is a link to a PDF called "Extending Fireworks MX 2004" as well 
as a zip containing the rpc stubs for c++ & actionscript and 
documentation of the rpc api.

Until now, I haven't used the rpc api, which was only added in the 
Studio MX version earlier this yeaPreviously what I did was 
(programmatically) construct some javascript, save it to a file, and 
tell Fireworks to open it (telling Fireworks to open a .jsf file causes 
it to parse & run the contents). The generated javascript included code 
to write busy and finished semaphores to files. This was necessary 
because if you send a .jsf file to fireworks while it is in the middle 
of running a previous file, it just ditches the previous script and 
starts the new one.

These semaphores worked well on mac but were a little tricky to get 
working properly on windows because it does some sort of filesystem 
caching...we did get it working reliably but I don't remember the 
details...

Cheers,
Michael Johnston
