Hi I am attempting my first native plugin and have followed the instructions in the Solar 2D documentation. Its a C based plugin and I have it working fine in Xcode. I have the lib plugin_triangle.a file. Have followed the instructions about self hosting the plugin creating the metadata.lua file and taring it and putting it in the ~/Solar2D/… file structure, updated the build settings as per instructions etc. I have checked everything is named appropriately as per the documentation. When I require the plugin in sublime I receive the dreaded message below, basically the solar2d build can’t find the plugin.
Am I missing something really simple ? It is possible to run the simulator with a new plugin I assume, the documentation seems to suggest it ?
Any help is greatly received as I am at a complete loss as too what to do next
Apologies if this is a well trodden path but I can’t find any solutions to the question in the forum.
Thanks in anticipation
David
