Rhino Script Compiler for Rhino5, second Beta

Yep; the new compiler has an embedded version of RhinoCommon from V6 SR0 that is used for the compilation process. This means you don’t even need Rhino installed on the same computer that you run the compiler on. If you need to set a minimal Rhino version for your plug-in to work because of some feature we have added of some bug we have fixed, we’ll need to add some feature to the plug-in to inform the user that they need a newer version of Rhino.

Ok, I’m still trying to figure out the best way to deal with extra files. Still pondering…

rvb is a different beast. I can probably get in-memory python modules to eventually work instead of writing to a temp directory, but it won’t happen right away as it is “hard” and I’ve got a billion other projects to complete. I haven’t even gotten the library support working yet… :slight_smile:

I don’t know how interesting this is to you, but one of the reasons for the script compiler reboot is to support grasshopper definitions as commands. At least my monotone voice can put you to sleep in just 10 minutes.
