Set up plugin sdk
To download the repository, you must install Git for Windows.
! Git can be installed during Visual Studio installation by selecting the corresponding item in the installer.
! Git for Windows XP can be found here: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.10.0.windows.1
Run the command line from the placewhere plugin-sdk repository should be located
! If you use plugin-sdk with Code::Blocks, locate plugin-sdk repository in the root of any local disc (this is needed to avoid possible problems with command-line length limit)
(or go to this place from the command line) and run command
git clone https://github.com/DK22Pac/plugin-sdk.git
If you plan to continue working with the repository (update or make your changes), you can use TortoiseGit for these purposes.
Launch installer-launcher.exe in plugin-sdk folder.
! If you have problems running applications that use .NET Framework 4.0, you can try running the version of the installer that uses .NET Framework 3.5. To do this, open
tools\installerand runPluginSdkWizardInstaller_fw3.5.exe.
Setup plugin-sdk environment variables in the Setup Plugin-SDK environment variables section. The variable PLUGIN_SDK_DIR is mandatory. More information about variables can be found here.
After configuring PLUGIN_SDK_DIR variable, it will be possible to install additional utilities for Visual Studio and Code::Blocks (click the button in the Install Plugin-SDK Wizard/Templates section).
After the installation, click on the Generate button in the Generate Plugin-SDK solution/workspace section. After that, plugin-sdk solution will be created.
Go to the plugin-sdk folder, and open created solution (plugin.sln for Visual Studio, plugin.workspace for Code::Blocks). Build solution in Release and Debug modes.
Choose building mode
And use menu for building: Build > Build solution (Ctrl+Shift+B by default).
