minimal plugin development for windows

As you are going to just build a plugin you can get away with just 3 steps instead of dozens.

minimal development environment for windows plugins

• the current free msvc
• git
• checkout of the mumble source (don't need referenced celt sources, etc.)
• see [BuildingWindows] for details on each step

setup

• create a solution for your plugin
• add your plugin.cpp to the project
• create a project for your test program
• make sure your test program includes mumbe_plugin.h

the test program

• load the plugin
• get debuging privileges (might require some administrative rights)
• call trylock until it locks
• call fetch until it fails
• maybe output some of the values to see if the coordinate system matches (you want east:x+ up:y+ north:z+)
• loop

standing on others shoulders

• find a guide about automating the boring parts of your favourite game (there's lots of information about this so called botting/hacking on the interwebs)
• pick avatar position and heading for starters and add them to the plugin
• compile, test in your testprogram, if it works, test in mumble

contribute

• prepare a patch
  • open git bash
  • git add yourplugin.cpp
  • git commit
  • git format-patch master
  • open patch ticket and attach the files 0000-comment.patch
• prepare a patch for a patch
  • same as above but "git format-patch <hash of your latest patch>"
