How to compile plugins?

[maChiN]

Hi,i know how to compile pcsx2 releases,but how i can compile plugin releases?is there any guide?

Assuming you're asking for Windows, you will probably need the DirectX SDK and/or the Nvidia Cg toolkit to compile the plugins. You may also need to setup Visual Studio to point to where the libs/headers are as well, otherwise it's pretty much the same as compiling PCSX2.

1>c:\pcsx\plugins\gsdx\stdafx.h(33) : fatal error C1083: can't open the file 'afxwin.h': No such file or directory

You don't copy them, you'd click on properties of project you'd like to compile, and under C/C++ tab select Additional include directories, and add include directories.

Under linker select Add additional library directories, and add lib directories.

Verify if the project is set to release. If you'd like to compile GSDX you'd need windows SDK as well.

You don't need windows SDK, you need DirectX SDK [Nov08].
