I recently added some code to work adding some new LayerObjects to the scene... with the R10.5 SDK, this was done by Inserting new LayerObject nodes into the GeListHead pointer returned by doc->GetLayerObjectRoot().
Anyway, I just moved back to R10.01 SDK and it looks like doc->GetLayerObjectRoot() is/was a 'private' function at that time (D'oh!) and I am in fact now crashing when trying to do a list->GetFirst() on it.
I'd really like to have this functionality in an R10-based plugin (vs R10.5) if possible...
- is there some way for me to get the R10.01 version to work?
- in a way that's compatible with R10.5? (I can check versions and use different code if needed).
Thanks,
Keith

Hmmm... this thread seems to imply that it was maybe working starting in R10.1 (I think the SDK I have is from the R10.008 Demo version).
My R10 dvd (before upgrading to R10.5) may have the R10.1 DK on it, so I'll go check that.

D'oh!  Looks like my DVD has R10.008 on it... does anyone have the R10.1 SDK files ("resource" and "plugins\cinema4dsdk" folders) they can send me? (can't download them from Maxon like you used to be able to do).

Uhm.. cause I was being dense?  :)  I didn't think to look there - I'll do that now, thanks.

Ok, I downloaded the R10.111 update, so I'm now compiling with those files, but it's still crashing (!).
After hours of hair-pulling, I'm not sure where to look next.  I created a plugin based on your simple example in that other thread, added it to the same (VC2008) project, using all the same compiler and linker options and it works (!), but if I try to do the same in my other plugin, it crashes...

    
    
    
    
    Bool ImportPlugin::Execute(BaseDocument *doc)  
    {
    
    
    
    
        if( !doc )  
            return false;
    
    
    
    
        GeListHead *llist = doc->GetLayerObjectRoot();
    
    
    
    
        if(!llist)  
        {  
            GePrint("no list");  
            return false;  
        }
    
    
    
    
        GeListNode *layer = llist->GetFirst(); // <--- Crash on GetFirst()
    
    
    
    
        return true;  
    }
    
    
    

...the only difference is that my other plugin has a couple dozen source files compiled in with it, but as you can see from the above, none of that is being called - I replaced my Execute() routine with the above.
Anyone have any ideas what could possibly be causing this?

D'oh!  Somewhere in the process of moving folders and projects around, I left out the "/vmg /vms" compiler switches...  - it's all working now (yay!)
