6.6 Compiling the Physics Plugin

When a plugin is created using the menu Wizard > New Physics Plugin, Webots will automatically add a suitable .c or .cpp source file and a Makefile to the plugin's directory. Your plugin can be compiled with Webots text editor or manually by using gcc and make commands in a terminal. On Windows, you can also use Visual C++ to compile the plugin. In this case, please note that the plugin should be dynamically linked to the ODE library. The Webots lib directory contains the gcc (libode.a) and Visual C++ (ode.lib) import libraries. Under Linux, you don't need to link the shared library with anything.
