CSProfileMBS.CreateDeviceProfile(deviceClass as string, deviceID as CFUUIDMBS, profileID as Variant) as CSProfileMBS

deviceClass: ColorSync device class
deviceID: deviceID registered with ColorSync
profileID: profileID registered with ColorSync; pass kColorSyncDeviceDefaultProfileID to get the default profile.

See CSDeviceMBS for more info on deviceClass, deviceID and profileID

Returns nil on failure and Profile object on success.

CSProfileMBS.CreateLink(profileSequence() as dictionary, options as dictionary) as CSProfileMBS

profileSequence: An array of dictionaries, each one containing a profile object and the information on the usage of the profile in the transform.

Required keys:

kColorSyncProfile: CSProfileMBS
kColorSyncRenderingIntent: String defining rendering intent
kColorSyncTransformTag: String defining which tags to use

Optional key:

kColorSyncBlackPointCompensation: Boolean to enable/disable BPC

options: dictionary with additional public global options (e.g. preferred CMM, quality, etc... It can also contain custom options that are CMM specific.

Returns nil on failure and Profile object on success.

CSProfileMBS.InstalledProfiles(wait as boolean = false) as dictionary()

Var a(-1) as Dictionary = CSProfileMBS.InstalledProfiles
Var lines(-1) as string

for each d as Dictionary in a
  lines.Append d.Value(CSProfileMBS.kColorSyncProfileDescription)
next

MsgBox Join(lines,EndOfLine)

Returns an empty array on any error.

Note: When called for the first time this function will return only system profiles because profile iteration is a slow process requiring multiple access to file system.

e.g. you may call it in app.open, so later when you call it again, the list is gathered.
