Hey i got another question for you guys lol. (sorry about all these ) But is there a way or program you can use to make VST GUI's and add them to an already compiled VST dll file? Niallm's program is pretty handy and i made a GUI for a VST and it generates the C code so is there a way i can add that code to the VST?
I dont alot about C but if this is possible ill try and learn what i need to figure this out. well if you guys can help any thanks alot.
Creating VST GUI's ??

You could edit the resources of that binary executable directly ...
But I guess, that would voilate the license and copyright in most cases heaviely. And it requires, that there is already a resource based GUI. Re-arranging the controls wouldn't be possible with that.
You cannot simply "add" C code to a compiled program unless it hasn't any kind of inbuilt parser for interpreting that code (which is definately not the case in 99,999999% of the programs I know). And you cannot even add a GUI to a compiled program, if you don't recompile it anyhow (before you connected the GUI to the program code with coding).
But you can build new plugins with SE or other such tools, if you "connect" the source plugin to the project. That requires, that the license of those external plugins allows that, which is in most cases not the case. But such external dependencies will not be compiled directly into the resulting SE plugin for some reasons. But who knows, perhaps this is the next "big clou" of SE (binary code stealing made easy per virtual patch cable) ...
