Neuray C++-Plugin API

[erij89]

Hello everyone,

I'm wondering if it is possible to write a plugin that allows to access information/ or send some, using an IPC (inter-process-communication) channel?
So that I can run a process on my server that e.g. requests rendered images from the realityserver-bin.exe process directly?

Second problem: I just can't seem to find the header-files needed to complete the Neuray C++-Tutorials. It looks like the neuraylib.h file is missing? Could there be a problem with my installation? :confused:

Thank you.

The missing neuraylib.h is a known problem which will be fixed in the next bugfix release (I don't have a date, sorry). But note that the neuray C++ Plugin API in RS currently supports only importer and exporter plugins. Since you wan't to write a different kind of plugin, you'd have to use the C++ Plugin API anyway.
