Hi,

I have been having some problems trying to load a plugin they sent me. I followed the steps in the "Steps to Build an Analysis Plug-in for OpenSim", but I am not getting the files al the <OpenSimInstallDir>/plugins. I tried copying the files from the CMake "Release" folder and pasting them in the <OpenSimInstallDir>/plugins folder. When I run OpenSim, the plugin appears, but when I select it, the following error appears "Error trying to load library "Name of plugin". Library not loaded". I would really appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Daniel

Daniel,

Because of Visual Studio incompatibilities between different versions, we have seen this problem trying to load a plugin built using Visual studio 9 Professional into the application. Plugins built using Visual Studio 8 or Visual Studio 9 Express do not exhibit the problem. If possible, find a machine with either of VS8, VS9 Express and retry.

Long term, we'll have to have multiple distributions for different VS versions.

Hi Daniel,

I've encountered the same problem that Ayman is referring to. Luckily, if you can wait it out for the release of 1.9 in the near future you won't have to worry about building JointReactions anymore. This newer JointReactions will also have added functionality.

Hey Matt,

Have you got any idea when the release of OpenSim 1.9 is going to be?

Thanks,

Daniel
