XPresso node plugins are derived from GvOperatorData. Unfortunatly there is no SDK example of XPresso nodes but there is some information and examples in the forum.

cheers,
Matthias

Instead of RegisterNodePlugin use GvRegisterOperatorPlugin which also takes the group ID as argument where you want to make your node available.

For instance: GvRegisterOperatorPlugin(..., ID_GV_OPCLASS_TYPE_GENERAL, ID_GV_OPGROUP_TYPE_GENERAL, ID_GV_IGNORE_OWNER, ...)

hi again,

now I try to add more and more functions. Also the port menu with the FillPortsMenu(..) function.
I see the new menu entry, if I select the corner of my node with the mouse. But if I select one of this menu entries, i get a cinema4d alert from gv_nodedata.cpp file. Also the debugger stopped with an message "C4D has triggered a breakpoint". I don't know what's wrong. Has someone an idea?

cheers, Markus
