I am new to PPAPI development and have downloaded the already examples from here
However, even after coming across the documentation, I am not able to build the project.
I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, Windows OS and Chrome:30.0.1599.65
I understand that once a dll is created, using the regsvr32
command will register the plugin, although getting the dll, even with available code, seems tough for me. Any help for building the dll is appreciated.
You will want to start here to download the and set up the SDK: https://developers.google.com/native-client/sdk/download
This page will take you through how to build and run the examples: https://developer.chrome.com/native-client/sdk/examples
This page goes over how to actually create your own plugin: https://developer.chrome.com/native-client/devguide/tutorial/tutorial-part1
And then you should read this entire section to code and structure your application: https://developer.chrome.com/native-client/devguide/coding/application-structure
If you need any third party libraries be sure to check here: https://chromium.googlesource.com/webports
Edit: Forgot to mention that you will want to use the same version of the pepper api as the version of chrome you're running (in this case pepper_30). Also, you have to use the NaCl toolchain (one of either glibc, newlib, or pnacl); you can't use the Visual C/C++ toolchains. I recommend trying pnacl now that it is available, as that is by far the most cross platform version, but if you run into trouble, you'll probably want to use the newlib toolchain as it has better support.
