WDX Guide

This utility shows all fields supported by WDX plugins installed in TC 6.5+.
It shows content plugins' fields for any given file (you may select file).
Useful for plugins testing.

Two feature requests:

1. WDXChart from VadiMGP can load more than one file using %L and switch among them in a simple list.

2. When you have many plugins installed the heap of buttons on the left is unclearly arranged because they don't show vertically only but just take the available space. I suggest using a simple list here too instead of space consuming buttons.

So, to sum it up the feature request would be three columns:
Left: Loaded Files
Middle: Plugins
Right: Values

TAB or left/right switches among left and middle column and up/down can be used to switch among the files and plugins.

What do you think about that?

Thanks

I'll think about that. Maybe files column and %L parameter is not bad idea...
But currently you may make plugins tabs wider, and more plugins will be fit in tabs area, than in the list.

Right, I work on the Unicode support for JPG comment plugin and WDX Guide is my preferred test tool.

I worked on one too, but had issues and gave up.
I may retry at some point, though now I don't have time for it.

Not done but still in progress. You can can download it from here. My usual test files are http://dev.exiv2.org/attachments/73/1225642_Cyrillic.jpg or http://dev.exiv2.org/attachments/75/aECO117390_Hebrew.jpg. Not all fields are set for each file.

Thank you so much for your commitment.

When you call [face=courier]ContentGetValueW()[/face] the return FieldValue (of type [face=courier]wchar_t*[/face]) is in Unicode.
