Canon Edsdk 2.5 Missing Files For Mac
The canon EDSDK is a great library to control pretty much any aspect of your canon SLR camera from any application.
Currently there are some very important limitations you shouldn't forget:
Add warning popup for unexpected camera disconnection; Add prototype for Canon EDSDK replacement; Add USB download rate to information shown in. My canon printer is suddenly. My canon printer is suddenly skipping every other line when it prints. Canon Pixma 480 very simple small printer that has had no problems; used lightly; one year old. Are you still waiting for another reply from me? I upgraded to snowleopard on my mac but I also upgraded the printer driver weeks ago so thats not.
- It only works in windows - mac support is painful and currently crashes
- We are not allowed to include the required dll's for the SDK, please apply for a download yourself. It might take a few days..
- Parts of the code is based on the openframeworks classes for ofxCanonCameraWrapper.
Getting started
First you need to apply and download the EDSK, it might take a few days and you may not be accepted if you are tryingto use this for personal use only.
Once you have the download copy the EDSDK folder into this project, you should see this:
After those two steps import the project in eclipse, all the required files are included.
Examples
The examples inside src/gettingstarted should provide a good starting point.You can either use the c-style api directly (example 1), but you won't enjoy this (so look at examples 2, 3, ..) instead :)
Mac Version
There is no working mac version yet. See https://github.com/kritzikratzi/edsdk4j/issues/23 These steps are necessary:
- change all occurences of StdCallCallback (StdCallbackLibrary) to Callback (Library)
- remove all reference to windows api's. should be easy to find because they make your app crash when you launch :)
- remove the dispatch message calls (peekMessage/dispatchMessage/translateMessage)
- copy the edsdk framework to /Library/Frameworks or /System/Library/Frameworks
- ✓ fiddle with the library loading a bit.
- if you would like to use callbacks (e.g. for downloading images) make sure to have some awt window open. calling
new Frame().dispose();
seems to be enough to get the nsapplication loop going. - ✓ The
-d32
JVM arguments to force 32bit mode doesn't help anymore since JDK 7. The latest edsdk is 64bit modeand needs to be used.good luck :)
Until 2016 the build environment for this project was ant which is now deprecated. You might want to use maven to get more mileage.
Maven
To build the jar file run
Ant
The ant build.xml is deprecated and might need some fiddling to get it work again
JUnit-Tests
Maven
JNAErator Maven plugin
pre 2010 - who?:Due to the lack of a Canon SLR I currently do not maintain this project. Feel free to fork and play with it! Also: it seems the user yeroc has a newer version than me, you might fork that one instead ..-
2010 kritikratzi (Hansi Raber):
since 2014-08 at github:
- https://github.com/kritzikratzi/edsdk4j14 other Forks e.g.
2014/2015: Ananta Palani
- Added most of the missing constants and commands
- Cleaned and improved the project all around
2016 Wolfgang Fahl:
The ability to take over mechanically relevant information from various MCAD systems and the ECAD connection information means that EPLAN Harness proD has the potential to be seamlessly integrated into PDM environments. Eplan harness prod crack. This allows for the design of the cable harness even when there is no mechanical prototype available. The system’s strengths lie in the automated steps involved, from importing the wiring lists from the EPLAN Platform to routing the cables and generating the documentation and 2D nail board drawings.
