Hey gang, I'm building a plugin and I'm linking to an external library using a make file. It compiles fine and creates my .so file, but when I launch Houdini my operator doesn't show up.

Compiling and all works fine with the default sample files.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.1 with gcc 4.4.3 and Houdini 12.0.683 for gcc 4.4.

Any ideas?

set HOUDINI_DSO_ERROR=2 to see load-time dso errors. Perhaps Houdini can't see your external library? Is it in LD_LIBRARY_PATH or so?

Hey SYmek, thanks for the reply.

I think that might have been it, my plugin is showing up.

Now I gotta figure out why it wont solve the sim when I play :-|

Thanks!

I'm facing same issues here..
I have my so files in my home directory's houdini12.1/dso but houdini cant see it
while loading.
I compiled the default SOP_Flatten(in the same location as the other files) which houdini does pick up while loading.

I'm linking to external libs as well.
