An example Makefile is included with the NDK examples shipped in the NDK sub directory of the Documentation installed with NUKE.

There is also an example Visual Studio project file in the vc8 directory that can be used as well.

The Foundry builds NUKE using the Intel compiler, but building plugins with Visual

Studio 2005’s compilers will work fine.

NUKE 64 on Windows is compatible with plugins built with:

Visual Studio 2005 - SP1 (Manifest Version: 8.0.50727.762).

Warning

Plugins must be built against Visual Studio 2005 - SP1.

Warning

Watch out for Windows update KB971090 which will quietly update your VS2005

SP1 from 8.0.50727.762 to 8.0.50727.4053 and thus require users of your plugin

to also have the new manifest version of the CRT.*

The resulting dynamic link library file (.dll) should then be moved to your .nuke directory

(or otherwise into the nuke plugin_path). Your .nuke directory will be in your Users/username

directory, on Windows 7, or the equivalent directory containing your My Documents folder

on older versions of Windows.

See Building & Installing Plug-ins for information on creating your first plug-in.
