jscooper Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Well, better late then never, I'm finally jumping into C/C++ and, whilst learning all about pointers, voids and the like it occured to me "hey! I could probably use this to write FM plugins!" Am I right about that? Of course, I have no idea if you need a special permission slip from FileMaker to write them, or even if the API is available anywhere. I can't seem to find a clear answer. I know the info is on the Developer CD, but I couldn't find anything on their site that said "in order to write plugins you MUST buy FMD". Does anyone know of there is a book or site that has the info? Or if any needed files are available anywhere else (i.e. most free compilers come with various .h files that hook into Windows, are there files like that floating around for FMPro?) Granted, if an unknown rich uncle dies tomorrow I can run out and buy FMD by the weekend and save myself the hassle, but that's probably not going to happen. Thanks, Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobWeaver Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 You can only write plug-ins if you buy FMD. That is unless you have great mind reading capabilities and can figure out all the entry points. If you buy FMD, they give you all the necessary header files etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocoadev Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Can you do plugin development with ProjectBuilder or just plane jane gcc and a set of makefiles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
