Title: Building plugins under unix?
Post by: merlin on March 25, 2008, 05:37:52 am

I have developed a couple of plugins which compile and work fine under windows.

When I try to port them to unix the xxxx.la (libtool) file is not created.  I am using the codeblocks plugin template from the project wizard to create the project.

Thanks in advance if anyone can tell me what step I have missed.

Hi !

You will notice several contrib plugin have a project.cbp and project-unix.cbp.
For ThreadSearch plugin, I adapted a project-unix.cbp.
I think it is the easiest solution.

Thanks for the reply.  I tried it but no luck.

However it did prompt me to try compiling a couple of the standard contrib plugins from the project files (i usually bootstrap the nightly build from the cmd line) and they didn't create a .la file either.

I'll check how it builds from the command line.  The answer is probably in there.
