How to start NP web plugin in Firefox/Chrome? Urgent

by Nabarro · in Torque 3D Professional · 10/08/2013 (11:56 pm) · 6 replies

Hello, everyone,

I have one problem: I've compiled the NP plugin into "NP Full Plugin.dll" according to your official guide. The problem is: how to start and debug the plugin with VS2008?

In "NP Full Plugin.vcproj", in it's Debugging Information, command is: "NP Full Plugin_DEBUG.exe", command argument is: sample.html.

But, I didn't find "NP Full Plugin_DEBUG.exe". How can I build "NP Full Plugin_DEBUG.exe" file?

Another, does your Project Manager can build "NP Full Plugin_DEBUG.exe"?

Thank you very much.

Switch your compiler build setting from "Release" to "Debug". And no, the Project Manager does not build or compile anything, debug or release.

Thank you, Michael,

My problem is: "NP Full Plugin.vcproj" is to build "NP Full Plugin.dll", not to build "NP Full Plugin_DEBUG.exe".

In the Debugging Tab(Configuration property) of "NP Full Plugin.vcproj", in it's CMD item: the default value is "$(TargetDir)\NP Full Plugin_DEBUG.exe". I mean how to build "NP Full Plugin_DEBUG.exe" here.

Very appreciated for your kindly help.

It's a plug-in, not a stand-alone executable program. It will be a .dll, not a .exe. "Dynamic Link Libraries" are commonly used for plug-ins, while full executables are not (every executable contains a segment of code that is not needed in a plug-in).

Richard, thank you very much.

For debugging, I need to write registry stable for the npplugin.dll(NP plugin file). Is there any example code about writing the registry? Is "regsvr32 /c d:/npplugin.dll" ok? Thank you very much.
