I wanted to test vst3 plugins in my system so I tried to change the arpeggiator plugin into a vst3 merely by setting the JucePlugin_Build_VST in appconfig.h to 0 and JucePlugin_Build_VST3 to 1, and changing the file suffix to .vst3.
However when scanning for vst3-plugins the plugin host halts at the assert below
IPluginFactory* JUCE_CALLTYPE getPluginFactory()
{
if (factory == nullptr)
if (GetFactoryProc proc = (GetFactoryProc) getFunction (“GetPluginFactory”))
factory = proc();
// The plugin NEEDS to provide a factory to be able to be called a VST3! // Most likely you are trying to load a 32-bit VST3 from a 64-bit host // or vice versa. jassert (factory != nullptr); return factory; }
Is there more to do than merely setting JucePlugin_Build_VST3 and changing the suffix to produce a vst3 plugin? Both host and plugins are x64 and building and using the arpeggiator as vst (non vst3) is no problem.
