Why can't I put my plugin onto CloudCompare

Post by yjf27281181 »

Hi Deniel,
I met a very strange problem.
When I use a function that involve opencv and a dll that I write in my plugin and try to compile CC, and then CC would not add my plugin onto it while other plugins like dummy could. However, if I comment this function and try to compile it again. CC would add my plugin onto it. So the problem is this function containing some dll. Could you tell me how to solve this problem?

It's probably because when you use the function, the plugin will try to load the OpenCV DLL(s). You have to put them next to CloudCompare executable.

To determine which DLL is missing, the best way is to use 'Depedency Walker' (on the plugin DLL):
