[Gimp-developer] Compiling a Simple Plug-in.
Can anyone show me how to compile the simple Plug-in1 hello' message on GIMP. The simple plugin for gimp is available at this link :http://developer.gimp.org/writing-a-plug-in/1/index.html. I have included one header file called libgimp.h which is similar to #include libgimp/gimp.h from the developers website. I am using devcpp-4.9.9.2 with mingw compiler for windows. I have 41 error when trying to compile the Simple Plug-in: Compiler: Default compiler Executing gcc.exe... gcc.exe D:\New Folder\hello.c -o D:\New Folder\hello.exe -ID:\Dev-Cpp\include -LD:\Dev-Cpp\lib In file included from D:\New Folder\hello.c:2: D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:10: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:22: error: syntax error before gimp_main D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:22: error: syntax error before argc D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:23: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:24: error: syntax error before gimp_default_display D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:24: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:25: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:38: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:52: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:53: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:53: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:55: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:56: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:56: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:59: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:60: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:62: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:64: error: syntax error before gimp_gamma D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:64: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:65: error: syntax error before gimp_install_cmap D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:65: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:66: error: syntax error before gimp_use_xshm D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:66: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:67: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:67: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:68: error: syntax error before gimp_min_colors D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:68: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:69: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:69: warning: data definition has no type or storage class D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:70: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\hello.c: In function `query': D:\New Folder\hello.c:6: error: syntax error before args D:\New Folder\hello.c: At top level: D:\New Folder\hello.c:25: error: syntax error before string constant D:\New Folder\hello.c:34: error: conflicting types for 'gimp_install_procedure' D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:37: error: previous declaration of 'gimp_install_procedure' was here D:\New Folder\hello.c:34: error: conflicting types for 'gimp_install_procedure' D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:37: error: previous declaration of 'gimp_install_procedure' was here D:\New Folder\hello.c:37: error: syntax error before '*' token D:\New Folder\hello.c: In function `run': D:\New Folder\hello.c:43: error: syntax error before values D:\New Folder\hello.c:44: error: `GimpPDBStatusType' undeclared (first use in this function) D:\New Folder\hello.c:44: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once D:\New Folder\hello.c:44: error: for each function it appears in.)

The simple plugin for gimp is available at this link http://developer.gimp.org/writing-a-plug-in/1/index.html. I don't see any complete source code on that page, unfortunately. What did you do, paste together the code snippets on the page? I have included one header file called libgimp.h which is similar to #include libgimp/gimp.h from the developers website. So you say, but then the error messages you include below talk about gimp.h? gcc.exe D:\New Folder\hello.c -o D:\New Folder\hello.exe Hmm, actually using a folder called New Folder does not seem like a terribly bright idea. You are supposed to rename folders you create to some meaningful name. I would also recommend not using spaces in folder names, it can cause various problems sooner or later. D:\New Folder\/gimp.h:10: error: syntax error before '*' token Is this gimp.h something you created yourself, or where did you get it from? And why is it in New Folder? If it is the standard gimp.h from a GIMP distribution, it should be in a subfolder include\gimp-2.0\libgimp of where you installed the GIMP developer files [1]. Anyway, the normal gimp.h has about twenty lines of comments at the beginning, so how can line 10 have a syntax error? --tml [1] There doesn't seem to be any GIMP development package for Win32 at the gimp-win.sf.net site. There is one at http://www.gimp.org/win32/gimp-dev-2.2.7.zip . Maybe it should be advertised somewhere, although I initially intended it to be just temporary until gimp-win.sf.net would offer also a developer package. If you haven't already gathered the same headers and import libraries from somewhere else, you probably want to download that and point your compiler to use headers and (import) libraries from there. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
