Just realized that the Reselector plugin open source does not compile correctly with R11+ SDK. Darn. Don't enough right now to change it so it does.

Got the following compiler error:

1>.\source\ReSelector.cpp(219) : error C2664: 'Neighbor::Init' : cannot convert parameter 2 from 'BaseSelect *' to 'const CPolygon *'
1> Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast

Any open source that works in R11 SDK? Or what does this mean exactly?

Thanks again!

Hi!

Change the line 219. I can't compile it because I am not at home - can't promise it will work but in the SDK Documentation I just found the method PolygonR() which should match with the required type.

I have been trying to build/compile the Reselector plugin with no success. I managed to get the cinemasdk plugs to work, but get this message when I try to compile the Reselector:

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'c4d.h': No such file or directory

Any help? I guess the thing that I am most curious about is whether I can create a totally separate project with the open source plugs (ie. not have to place it into the plugin folder or sdk folder)? As long as I have the directories linked properly I should be able to do this, right?

is this something simple or overlooked?

Any help? The other thing that I cannot understand is why the code for ReSelector does not showup in the solution explorer? I placed the cpp file in the same directory within the sdk, but it does not show up?

Have you added both "Main.cpp" and "ReSelector.cpp" files to your solution?

I got it working here and will later upload the whole project as VS2005 project.

cheers,
Matthias

thanks, matthias. not at all certain what i'm doing incorrectly, but look forward to your project...

both reselector.cpp and main.cpp are present. what i did was included registers for reselector in the main.cpp of the sdk. is this what i should be doing?

Here the link to the complete VS2005 project. It should work right out of the box. Just open the "Reseletor.sln" file and hit the F7 key (shortcut to compile).

Could it be that you didn't extract the archive into your plugin directory?
