Hi guys! I want to go further than Javascript because I want speed and I've been looking all over the internet and I can't find any how to's to get started on C++ plugins for Photoshop, some kind of easy examples like hello world. I tried the PS 2017 SDK but it seems really not that clear. Is there somewhere or someway I can know the foundation of this? I really don't mind about C++ language but more like how to create a c++ plugin and make it work on Photoshop. Thanks in advance!

You can used the COM type library.

1.search for visual studio to add type libraries,such as  adobe Photoshop CC 2017 object Library<1.0>,

2.

#include "PhotoshopCC2017/CApplication.h"

CApplication g_App;

g_App.CreateDispatch(_T("Photoshop.Application.110"));

g_App.get_Version();
