Include dummy plugin

Hi community,

I'm trying to write a plugin for QLC+ to provide IDN output. I want to use the dummyplugin as a skeleton. So I tried to include the dummyplugin into QLC+. I added

Code: Select all

SUBDIRS += dummy
to the plugins.pro file. After building the project the plugin doesn't appear in the Input/Output tab in QLC+. But I guess it should appear there...
Is there anything else to do to include the plugin? Can anyone imagine what I'm doing wrong?

Best regards,
daubli

For us that don't know what IDN is: ILDA Digital Network http://www.ilda.com/resources/Standards ... rev001.pdf

What is your platform (Win/Linux/OSX)? How do you compile (Qt creator/make/...)?
After you add the plugin to plugins.pro, run make or whatever are you using so that the plugin is compiled. Check that appropriate files are created.
Then you need to issue make install (sudo make install in linux).

Thanks for your quick answer. You helped me!! I forget to do "sudo make install" after compiling.
For completeness: I'm developing on Linux and I compiled with make.
