Error 126 when loading my AE plugin with cairo library

Question

Dear AE fellows,I'm creating AE pugin with the help of cairo library.I encounter the following strange problem.When I load my plugin from visual studio, AE starts and load my plugin OK.But when I start AE on its own and apply plugin layer, AE fails to load it. It gives: Error plugin: myplugin.aex could not be loaded(126) (48::46) How can one fix it?

first make sure it's indeed the issue! build a simple plug-in that loads properly both from the debugger and directly. then have it prompt the path to it's home folder.

(just a suggestion before you go chasing a speculation)

is the non-vs test done on the same machine?
if it's a different machine then it's porbably a dependency issue where the plug-in relies on some dlls that are not present on the other machine.

if it's the same machine, then perahps there's a difference in what directory is considered the "home" directory of the process, which in turn makes some dependent upon dlls not available for your plug-in to load when ran not though the debugger.
