Hollywood 6.0: SDK available
Press release: Airsoft Softwair is proud to present the immediate availability of the Hollywood 6.0 SDK. This is the first full release of the Hollywood SDK. Whereas previous versions only contained the necessary header files, the full release also contains an extensive documentation covering almost 350 PDF pages.

On top of that, the SDK contains well-commented source codes of example plugins and makefiles for all supported platforms.

With this release Airsoft Softwair completely exposes all interfaces for the very first time to enable interested parties to create their own plugins and make Hollywood even more powerful! A new SDK section devoted to plugin development has also been added to the official Hollywood forums.

Adding the 850 pages of the Hollywood 6.0 manual there are now almost 1200 pages of documentation which make Hollywood one of the biggest Amiga applications ever. Thanks to the Hollywood documentation system all reference manuals are available as AmigaGuide, HTML, CHM and PDF and can also be viewed online.

The SDK is now available for free download from the official Hollywood portal. (snx)
