The one file example I sent earlier works fine here, on Linux CentOS 4.2. It could also be that it only works with certain 4.2 QFEs. Here is another example, a VBScript one, that also works fine:
' Begin file MyFrameEvent.vbs
function XSILoadPlugin( in_oReg )
in_oReg.Name = "MyFrameEvent"
in_oReg.Major = 1
in_oReg.Minor = 0
in_oReg.Author = "Francois Painchaud"
' The last Advise parameter is false to avoid persisting the event binding.
Advise "OnBeginFrame",in_oReg.Filename,,"VBScript","MyFrameEvent",,,false
XSILoadPlugin = true
end function
function XSIApplication_OnBeginFrame( in_vCustomData, _
in_eRenderType, _
in_sOutputFileName, _
in_nFrameNumber, _
in_nSequenceNumber, _
in_eFieldType, _
out_bAbort )
LogMessage "STARTING FRAME: " & in_nFrameNumber & " - " & in_sOutputFileName
end function
' End file MyFrameEvent.vbs
