Does this tools still work with Yosemite?

When i install and start the app, nothing happens.

Posted: **Wed Jul 01, 2015 9:22 am**

Ok, my fault. Works on Yosemite also.

But how can i handle images like my toolbar images?

I placed this in my source and the icon is copied to the App-package/Contents/Resources folder.

Code: Select all

;@R ../toolbar/plus_32.png

But how do i access this image from within my code, so that the icon is visible when the app runs inside the IDE and also when it runs as compiled executable?

When i use this code, i can see the icons when the app runs inside the IDE.

Code: Select all

ToolBarImageButton(1, LoadImage(0, "../toolbar/plus_32.png"))

Ok, found the answer.

I have made a folder "Resources" within the folder where i save my .pb sources.

Like appname/source/Resources.

Within source, i save my .pb file and the icons are placed inside source/Resources folder.

In my code i use this:

Code: Select all

;plist
;@R Resources/block_32.png
;@R Resources/delete_32.png
;@R Resources/diagram_32.png
;@R Resources/help_32.png
;@R Resources/home_32.png
;@R Resources/info_32.png
;@R Resources/left_32.png
;@R Resources/pencil_32.png
;@R Resources/plus_32.png
;@R Resources/right_32.png
;@R Resources/save_32.png

and this to load the icons whether i run the code from inside the IDE or as executable.

Code: Select all

ToolBarImageButton(1, LoadImage(0, "Resources/plus_32.png"))

Like this...

Code: Select all

;@@ LSMinimumSystemVersion = 10.6
;@R MyImage.png

MessageRequester("Test", "Test application")

RunProgram("open", "-a /Applications/Preview.app Resources/MyImage.png", "")

EDIT: I see you figured it out.

Hi again.

I'm now trying to upload my first PureBasic app to itunesconnect using the Apple Applicationloader.

All went fine, but there is no app icon displayed on my builds in itunesconnect.

I have places the iconname.icns in the app/resources, and it is displayed when i start the app, but not after uploading it to itunesconnect.

And idea whats wrong here?

I'm not sure. I would contact iTunes Connect and see why. Could just be delay or something.

Hi,

Apple only refers to the App Distribution Guidelines. I'm sure i made all like described there.

Can you describe, what exactly your plist.file looks like and how you placed your app icon there and in your code?

As i said, the compiled app runs fine, but after uploading to itunesconnect, the build-icon is missing.

Here's what Macrotune's plist looks like. An icon for the app and one for the file associated.

Thats what my plist.info looks like:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

</dict>
</plist>

and this is what i placed on top of my app main code:

Code: Select all

CompilerIf #PB_Compiler_OS = #PB_OS_MacOS
  ;plist

  ;@R Resources/plus_32.png
  ;@R Resources/right_32.png
  ;@R Resources/save_32.png
  ;@@ CFBundleName = UniFormis
  ;@@ CFBundleVersion = 2.0.3
  ;@@ CFBundleShortVersionString = 2.0.3
  ;@@ CFBundleIconFile = uniformis.icns
  ;@@ CFBundleIdentifier = com.bytemasters.uniformis2
  ;@@ NSHumanReadableCopyright = Copyright © 2015 bytemasters GmbH. All rights reserved.
CompilerEndIf

But the icon is still not displayed in intunesconnect.

Posted: **Sun Dec 13, 2015 11:29 pm**

I don't know if it would make a difference but I would call it "Icon.icns" or just add the ".icns" extension to your plist.

Itunes connect may not be parsing the plist properly and is hunting for the extension.

Posted: **Mon Dec 14, 2015 8:02 am**

Thanks for your help. I will try it with Icon.icns.

Another thing:

My App-Version still says 2.0.0, although i changed it to 2.0.3 or 2.0.4 in the plist.info.

Any ideas, why this is not updating?

Posted: **Mon Dec 14, 2015 9:12 am**

Maybe Itunes Connect is having issues at the moment, as that should have updated.

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2015 8:37 pm**

It must be itunesconnect. There are several posts on the internet regarding this issue:

e.g.: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2637 ... es-connect

Posted: **Thu Jan 31, 2019 1:00 pm**

It would be great to have an option to add Frameworks and helperprograms as well.
For example:
;@F MyFramework.dylib ;to put a framework into /Contents/Frameworks/
;@MacOS MyHelper ;to put a helperprogram into /Contents/MacOS/
