Hello,

I need CodeWarrior for MacOSX, to write Code with Adobe InDesign SDK
(SDK_InDesignCS_InCopyCS_Build440). The InDesign SDK says it needs
CodeWarrior Pro 8.3.

can i also use "CodeWarrior Development Studio for Mac OS and
Windows,Learning Edition, v4, Academic"?

This could save me a lot of money, since i am still a student.

thanks for your replies

No, that does not generate libraries, DLL's or Plugins.

If this is purely for academic use you can get the Academic version of
CodeWarrior, it is very reasonably priced as we consider it like a
student grant. You can order it from our web site. The Academic
version is the same as the full commercial version but lincensed only
for academic use.

Ron, please note that currently the Metrowerks online store does not
seem to offer any "full" academic versions for Mac OS (X) or Windows
at this time. Unless they were very well hidden recently.

Yes I see this is a recent change. I'll see if something will be
forthcoming to replace it.

Thanks for your replies. I've found a distributor where i live. The
webstore is a bit confusing. the academic version is not listed where
other CW Products are listed, i found it through the search function.

I've bought it and must say i'm afraid it does not suffice to do what
i want to do: write my own Indesign Plugins. I didn't say that before
though. I'm trying to compile my first plug in and get the following
compile time error:
Link Error :
The target type is not application. This linker has been
intentionally limited to only create applications.

I assume this is a limitation of the Academic version and means it
cannot build plugins. Is that true?

You have the Learning Edition, in the original message it was asked if
the Learning Edition would work and I said NO. you would need the
Academic version. Unfortunately until CW 9 Academic comes out in a
couple weeks we do not offer any Academic version of our full tool set.

You will need to wait until it comes out or contact me about special
ordering the CW 8 version.

It does not seem like you have the academic version, which is a
full-feature version of CodeWarrior. Are you sure you did not get some
(old) learning edition? Which version exactly did you get?
