Hi,

I'm failing at the first hurdle of plugin development and I need some help!

I've used the plugin guide from here, following the steps to create a GUIWindow plugin.

But I cannot get the plugin to show up in the configuration window. The DLL is clearly being found because you get this error in the log:
[CODE]2010-06-18 18:24:23.956655 [Debug][Config Main(1)]: PluginsNew: loadPlugins C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Plugins\windows\TestPlugin.dll
2010-06-18 18:24:23.959155 [Warn.][Config Main(1)]: PluginsNew: C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Plugins\windows\TestPlugin.dll has a bad image format
[/CODE]
but nothing appears in the window.

I'm using:
Visual Studio Express 2010
Windows 7 Home 64bit
MediaPortal 1.1.0 RC4

I've attached my project. Am I missing something obvious? Could this be a VS Express 2010 problem?

Thanks in advance!
