The plugins bundled with Alembic are a great reference. It's mostly collecting the data into a std::vector and passing it to the Alembic lib, also computing a bounding box for the particles. For hair particles, it would be almost the same, writting curves instead of points. I think that instancing objects on particles is better done on the target application where you want to import the Alembic file and does not need to be supported by the exporter, same with DupliX features. >I've just tried building your branch, but unfortunately i'm getting a >compiler error: Sorry, this is an artifact of a previous svn up. I just fixed it and now builds ok.
