[Qgis-developer] plugin development in Win XP

[maaza mekuria]

I am saying that it is not the same. Plugins are DLL's and setup comes 
already pre-packaged and I just had to follow instructions that were 
clear. 

With the plugins, Dr. Marco's document is written for Linux and then it is also not clear. I think the instructions given for the update of the source files are not correct. 

What are the required directories for the plugin? Do I need all the extra files cmake, .cxx, .svg, etc for the plugin to work? 

Just wondering if I am making demands that is not acceptable. If so please let me know.

Thank you,

Maaza

If you're able to build QGis, you're able to build the plugins too, as QGis has already builtin plugins. Have a look to this folder [1]. My first trial was create a new folder in my project (in VS I mean) and setup the same structure of the other plugins.

I am repeating my question since it may not be , is it possible to build a plugin using WinXP and Visual Studio 2008 (I assume it is)? And is there any documentation on that? Or should one copy another plugin from the trunk and try to adopt it? Or should one resort to QT only for plugin development?


Thank you,

I am struggling to build a plugin in QGIS. I was able to build the source and I could run QGIS. But I can not create a plugin. I tried to follow Dr. Marco Hugentobler's example from the compilation guide and since it is linux based I could not duplicate it in the windows env. no matter how I try to compile the sample I get one error after another. Right now the error message below is the latest one. Can any of you offer some
 direction?


1>C:\SW\Src\qgis-trunk\src\gui\qgisinterface.h(54) : error C2470: 'QgisInterface' : looks like a function definition, but there is no parameter list; skipping apparent body
1>c:\sw\src\qgis-trunk\src\core\qgis.h(32) : error C2470: 'QGis' : looks like a function definition, but there is no parameter list; skipping apparent body
