NoteFor Mac OS X, you
do not need to build any translators, since the libraries are already
provided.
- Copy the translator plug-in file to the
user’s Maya work area into the plug-ins directory. There should
be a work area with a directory structure such as:
$HOME/maya/prefs
$HOME/maya/projects
$HOME/maya/plug-ins
$HOME/maya/scripts
- Unload the current version of the plug-in
from
Window >
Settings/Preferences > Plug-in Manager.
- Compile the new version of the plug-in.
- Place the new translator plug into the
plug-ins directory, and the MEL option script into the scripts directory.
- Reload the plug-in from
Window > Settings/Preferences
> Plug-in Manager.
- If the MEL option script has been modified,
source it again so that the changes are updated within Maya. Else
the changes will not be seen.
- Run the translator.
