@whereami518 said in C2373 'iid' : multiple initialization file location juce vst3 headers file:

getting the compiling error above on VS does any 1 got an idea what it means or what i need to do to fix this

which version of VS are you using? Which version of HISE - Master or Develop?

Do you have more than one version of HISE on your system?

Only use one copy of the source code, currently the develop branch is the best one to use.

Use the IPP oneAPI (if you must use IPP).

Use Visual Studio 2017 (it's hard to find but it will make your life easier until @Christoph-Hart updates HISE to work with a newer version).

Follow the instructions in this video but as I say use Visual Studio 2017 if you can find it.

@d-healey so do i need to delete this plugin i made lol and start againg from scratch

[d.healey]

@whereami518 Oh I thought the problem was with building HISE. Are you trying to compile a HISE project as a plugin? Did you extract the VST3 SDK?

[whereami518]

@d-healey yea i did extract it

[d.healey]

@whereami518 Tell us step by step what you're doing when you export (I'm going out for a bit so might not reply for a while, maybe someone else will jump in).

@d-healey @whereami518 Here you can find VS 2017

[whereami518]

@d-healey i can now confirm building hise works but vst3 is shooting me that error and now the vst2x.plugininterface file missing but i am compiling as vst 3 also when i leave the vst 3 slot empty in projucer it automatically reroutes to a sdk folder on my c drive but i dont have one in the c drive tried manually overide it and tell it where it is but still no luck and i get the same error

[whereami518]

[d.healey]

@whereami518 Step by step what you are doing when you export.
