Sometimes unable to load custom plugin

[nikev]

I've recently developed a small plugin on Windows using the Codelite 9.1 release repo, TDM 4.9.2_64-bit, and wxWidgets 3.1. Everything builds and all works fine if I use the update.bat batch file to copy my binaries to the CodeLite install directory. If I install CodeLite 9.1 fresh and copy only the plugin, then I get an error "Failed to load plugin's dll" which appears to be a wxDynamicLibrary error.

I've used the following build command to build wxWidgets:
mingw32-make -j8 -f Makefile.gcc SHARED=1 UNICODE=1 BUILD=release VENDOR=cl CXXFLAGS="-fno-keep-inline-dllexport -std=c++11" MONOLITHIC=1

Any ideas how I can load my plugin into CodeLite 9.1 without having to copy everything?

CodeLite 9.1 was not built with wxWidgets 3.1 (wx3.1 was not released at the time)
It was built with this wxWidgets repo: git@github.com:eranif/wxWidgets.git

CodeLite 9.1.4 (which I released few minutes ago...) is built with the official wxWidgets 3.1 sources (compiled with the exact command line and toolchain you used)

So you can:

- Build wxWidgets from the repo I pasted above and it should work
- Target your plugin to CodeLite 9.1.4 and later

(I would go for the later )

Thanks for the info! I will switch to 9.1.4.

FYI I was able to get my plugin to load in CodeLite 9.1.4 by following your instructions. Again, thanks for the help.
