ihab Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 (edited) Hi, I'm trying to compile HOT for windows 32-bit vc8. The cygwin shell spits the info shown in the image below but, a "Houdini 10.0" folder gets created in my home directory with an empty dso folder. According to shell there should be 3 dll files in that dso folder but that's not what happens. Does anyone know what would be the cause of this problem? thanks Edited August 4, 2009 by ihab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eloop Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Hi Ihab, Can you first verify that you can compile standard HDK examples successfully, eg SOP_Star.C ? -Drew Anyone ??!

ihab Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Hi Ihab, Can you first verify that you can compile standard HDK examples successfully, eg SOP_Star.C ? -Drew Hi Drew, thanks for creating such a great tool! I tried using hcustom to compile SOP_Star.C and the weird thing is that no errors are reported and the consol says that it created SOP_Star.dll at the $HOME/dso but still the folder is empty!! Pretty weird ??!?! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eloop Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 You mean $HOME/houdini10.0/dso ? Perhaps you need to see HDKFrequentlyAskedQuestions. -Drew Hi Drew, thanks for creating such a great tool!

ihab Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 You mean $HOME/houdini10.0/dso ? Perhaps you need to see HDKFrequentlyAskedQuestions. -Drew Thanks for the pointer .. turns out the PATH env variable was missing a few folders in the VS installation folder. OK so now i can compile the sample SOP_Star.C and the dll is created in the $HOME/Houdini10.0/dso However when i try to run the compile_win32.sh i get the following error and only the cleave dll is created ..

Thank you very much! ok the dll is created but it doesn't load into houdini. I get the following error for both the ocean sop and the ocean vex Dso strange because the cleave sop seams to work fine.
