 File: FxPlugFxHelpers.m
 
 Abstract: This Objective-C source file contains helper functions
            that allocate and free data and create and get the
            values of parameters in an FxPlug plug-in. The interface
            to these functions is identical to the interface for
            doing the same things in an After Effects plug-in, so you
            can write your parameter handling code once and have it
            work in plugins for both applications.
 
            NOTE: To use this code you need to have both the FxPlug
            SDK and the After Effects SDK installed. The FxPlug SDK
            can be downloaded from:
 
            <http://connect.apple.com>
 
            and choosing "Downloads" then choosing "Applications."
 
            The After Effects SDK can be downloaded from Adobe's
            web site at:
 
            <http://www.adobe.com/devnet/aftereffects/>
