Creating plugins
« on: February 24, 2017, 10:02:14 am »

Visual Studio 2015

eng.log
Code: [Select]
00:07.046 DEBUG: loading plugin: igc_plugin.dll
00:07.722 ERROR: failed to load plugins/igc_plugin.dll

What could be the reason?

Failing to load dependencies (other dlls it needs) or an exception during the loading of the dll.

This is your original example, without changes and amendments. I'm trying to move it to version 2015

Likely a wrong version of the API then. Going to put it on Github with version tags.

Thank you! It works.


This is a misunderstanding?

Why would you want to add it? It's not needed for the plugin.

This is a misunderstanding?

You mean if it's a mistake? The generator sometimes emits code for multiple interfaces or types and doesn't merge them, but it's not anything critical.

I thought that it is a prerequisite.

Intergen is needed only if you want to expose interfaces from your plugin, that can be used by scripts to get some external functionality or to delegate vehicle handling to it. There will be an example of it in next update.

Hi cameni!

It would be great to look in the source projectiles.dll, in order to gain experience. If may.

We plan to, but we first need to do a cleanup and rework the dll to use interfaces of the public API only.
