Greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttt i waited so much for a proper manual who needs Coffe if there is C(offein)
some n00bie questions:
I have some really general questions as i use sdk only on a windows/amd machine:
quote:"Xcode 2.4.1 is Apple Computer's integrated development environment for Mac OS X. The full Xcode package is free to ADC members and includes all the tools you need to create, debug, and optimize your own Universal applications, targeting both Intel and PowerPC platforms. "
i also would like to compile on a friends mac os 10.4.8, its a mini-mac g4, 512mb.
1.)so I need only XCode 2.4.1 (as its latest...) and then i can compile UB plugin and mac plugin?
2.) What is the difference between a mac plugin and a mac recompiled plugin developed on windows machine?
3.) UBinary runs both on PowerPC and Mac G4 +G5 ? if yes why do i need mac compilation then?
Would be very kind of some devs here enlighting my brain with some wise words
cheers,
Bernd

1. You need XCode 2.4.1+ to compile MacOSX UB plugins for C4D. There is no alternative.
2. You can't compile UB plugins on Windows.
3. UB runs on PPC and Intel Macs running OS 10.3.9+. The very name, Universal Binary, means that there are actually two executables in the final link - one has PPC code, the other Intel code meaning that the executable can be run universally on PPC and Intel systems. Of course, they can't be run in MacOS Classic (OS9).
Now I'm going to screw you up. Before UB plugins and before C4D R9.5.2, there were PPC plugins and only PPC plugins. With R10 there is only UB plugins. With R9.5.2 and R9.6, there is the possibility for both PPC and UB plugin compiles.
PPC plugins require CodeWarrior 8+. It is possible to compile for MacOS Classic target with a Windows version of CW. But CodeWarrior is no longer being produced or supported - you will find it very difficult to get CodeWarrior for MacOS Classic. If you are going to stick with plugins only for the latest C4D, R10, then don't even worry about PPC and CW as they are no longer supported in R10 onwards.

Thank you for you detailed answer Kuro
so I am not interested in compiling old OS9 which brings only trouble and no serious 3d artist is using OS9... most advanced to Tiger OS.
so i have (friend) a Mac OS 10.4.8 Tiger system and as XCode is free of charge we can actually start compiling/testing UB versions only for Mac osx and ppc user for 9.5.2 and R10 is that right?
btw. why is it not possible to use middle/right button in R10 sdk? in Maya i have read somewhere i forgot...ah yes the new Nex plugin for maya uses middle button afair...
cheerio,
Bernd

You can start doing MacOSX UB versions for 9.5.2 and 10, yes.
Be warned - the XCode download is rather massive. Don't forget to download the PDF UB migration document. This is also included in the R10 SDK documentation under "Migrate to XCode".
As for the mouse button thing, this is pretty much the state of the SDK for some time. The middle/right buttons are gobbled up by the main app before you can do any checks - they override-capture these before your plugin can intercept them. Similar situation with certain checks in modal dialogs.

Shouldn't matter. You can run UB on either Intel or PPC. And you can compile/link with XCode on either as well.

It doesn't matter if G4 or Intel. The compiled UB will run on all UB compatible systems.

ok i read UB info on wiki site and i am right that any UB file can be run on any Mac(intel-based) and Mac(PPC-based)
that means G4, G5 and are there still others? Is there anywhere a list which Mac computers exactly support UB or does all Mac computers support UB? -

G4, G5 and Intel run all UB as long as the OS is up-to-date. Also you need Cinema 9.6 or higher to compile UB plugins. With Cinema 10 you must compile UB plugins, Codewarrior plugins aren't supported anymore.

The Cinema R10 executable is UB-only, so you don't have to worry. As for the 9.6 demo, sorry we don't host old demos on our website.
