Plugin validates as VST3 - but fails to even load as an AU

[Lindon]

So I compile my FX plugin on Apple as a VST3 - and it loads and validates in pluginVal, so then I build the AU plugin and PluginVal tells me it fails to even load....wha?

Anyone else have this ever? Any solutions?

@Lindon AuVal is what you want for AUs. It's included with xcode I believe.

@d-healey PluginVal runs auval as part of its strict test - and every other AU loads fine into PluginVal just not this one...

[David Healey]

@Lindon Oh I didn't know that. Well what happens when you run it directly in auval?

[Lindon]

@d-healey Well I rebuilt the dll and that seems to have sorted it....so loads and passes in AuVal and in PluginVal.
