- plussz for example compiles without problems and appears in max. Plussz2 however appears to compile without problems(no warnings/errors/dll in sdkbuild-dir) but it doesn't appear in max when i type it in. Now i've also tried cleaing out the plussz-example, renaming it and inserting other code but the problem remains; no warnings/errors whatsoever and the dll is present in the sdkbuild-dir but it won't show up in Max.

- I'm a total noob at this, have just started using ofx and after compiling that succesfully i gave max a try and it worked! I'm using CodeBlocks so i didn't expect opening vcproj-files to atually work.

How do you start a new project? Is it like ofx where you just copy the EmptyExample and rename everything? Plussz probably being the easiest to clean out and rename.

Feeling pretty stupid right now. For some reason i already had plussz installed in another folder so the plussz i had recently compiled didn't work either. It seems changing the .dll to .mxe fixes the issue.

One question remains though, what's "the"? best way to start a new project (in CodeBlocks)?

remember again; Will compiling the other examples in the examples-folder create conflicts with standard objects in Max because they have the same name?

Thanks, i suspected it wouldn't be that much of a problem but it's better to be safe than sorry ofcourse.

In codebloocks you have the option of an "empty project", i'll go see if i can make it work by copying the settings from vcproj to this. Thanks for the empty objects!

If you are looking for an example on which to base your Code::Blocks project, the 'collect' example in the SDK should provide a model. I'd recommend starting there.

Looks a bit daunting but i'll check it out, thanks. I suspect it's about the mutex-stuff. Plussz just seemed so nice to begin with sigh...

O well, down the rabbit-hole we go! (again:)
