HMG app called from within plugin
Posted: Sat Jul 03, 2010 2:58 am
Hi
Not sure if the following is possible ... actually, I think it probably is possible, I'm just hopeless at C/C++ and not sure how to go about it.
I wish to be able to include HMG app "C" code in writing plugins for a 3D application, where the plugin itself is compiled to ".dll" rather than ".exe". Why? ... because the whole xBase thing just works so well
...
First steps I've taken are:
Attempt to compile the ".c" code created via HMG 3.0.34 (which is a great product by the way!). The app is a simplw window with one button.
- I'm using Bloodshed's Dev C++ with its own MinGW32.
- I've added every possible lib/include I could find to the Dev C++ IDE
- no success
...
The strategy is to go one step at a time - I figure if I can get this happening first to .exe, I can then proceed to .dll with all the additional plugin specific details.
I would greatly value help in getting this first step to work.
Posted below is the result of the failed compile:
Apologies for the length of this post.
