So I'm in the very early stages of learning Visual Studio, C##, and getting into creating my own addins and menus for Revit. I've been following the "My First Plugin" guide from Autodesk, and a few other 3rd party sites figure this stuff out. Right away I've run into version differences in Visual Studio, but been able to bounce my way thru it well enough.
Some of my struggles though have been simply getting started. Right off the bat I get the "Unknown Publisher" warning once my addin is in place. Reading on that, I need to be a Registered Developer with Autodesk to get a DeveloperID.
How do I do this? I've looked at the ADN, and don't see any "getting started", or even something hinting toward getting my own DeveloperID.
Then I ran into a duplicate GUID. This took me nearly 5 hours of googling to determine how to create my own GUID (guidgen.exe) which was really easy once I found an answer. (Thank you Jeremy Tammik, "The building coder" for your BLOG on the subject.)
I can't think I'm the only person that's started coding, and lost in the beginning like me.
Solved! Go to Solution.
