      MS is giving away for free it's optimizing C++ compiler:
      http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/

      It's a command line tool, but could anybody comment if this works with the Cinema SDK?

      How to construct correct "make" files for that compiler? Is there anything special reason *not* to use it?

      Thanks for any insight!

        Hi Kabe,
        Yes it works!
        I have now compiled and linked "cinema4dsdk" and it run.
        The only problem is, you will need "_api_v8_rel.lib" (C4D SDK Library) to link it.
        To create this library you will need lib.exe
        If you have "_api_v8_rel.lib" you can create compile.bat to compile all *cpp files and with linking.bat you can link all objects together to YouPlugin.cdl
        If you want I can share my compile.bat and linking.bat files.
        One can create simple Program that will make it a bit easier. 🙂
        But compile.bat and linking.bat can make it too.
        regards,
        Remotion

          Cooool!

          I guess that I'm not the only one here that would indeed be interested in the compile.bat and linking.bat files 🙂

          And that little proggie you talked about would certainly open the door to C++ plugins for a couple of people. If I've a look at the *.bat files maybe I just write that myself in RB. My dream would be a kind of "inbox" at my Windows machine just waiting for the plugin code.

          Currently I'm using Visual Studio C .net, which doesn't have an optimizing compiler and has in my view it's very own idea of workflow and interface, to put it friendly...

          Thanks a million!

          Kabe

            Now you can download it on my site.
            www.remotion.de.vu
            If you have Visual Studio C++ .net without optimization you must have windows.h and lib.exe
            You can try to use Toolkit compliler instead of Visual Studio C .net compiler.
            What is RB?

              Thanks for the download! Probably saved a tremendous amount of time for me...

              RB = Realbasic, an object oriented, cross-platform (Mac, Win, Linux) RAD tool. Very fast development tool for this kind of apps.
