Not sure where to put the .so file

[aiden-jeffrey]

I've built flatc and gdflatbuffers, copied the project/addons/gdflatbuffers directory into my project's addons directory, and copied the gdflatbuffers.linux.template_debug.x86_64.so file to both the project's root bin directory, and also addons/gdflatbuffers/bin, but the editor is struggling to find that shared object file:

  ERROR: core/extension/gdextension_library_loader.cpp:360 - No GDExtension library found for current OS and architecture (linux.x86_64) in configuration file: res://addons/gdflatbuffers/gdflatbuffers.gdextension
  ERROR: GDExtension dynamic library not found: 'res://addons/gdflatbuffers/gdflatbuffers.gdextension'.

I think I have a naming issue in there somewhere, where the resulting library name isn't correct as compared to what's in the gdextension file.

I exclusively use the editor binary at this stage, I haven't used the template_debug binary for some time as I am still in early development.

I also haven't updated my projects in a long time, so its been a while since I touched this stuff, and its due for an overhaul.
I have a half finished flexbuffer implementation, and want to re-work some other things. But it's not my immediate priority.

In your opinion what would be the most important thing to work on for the gdflatbuffers to make it easier to get started? pre-compiled binaries? more examples etc? When I pivot back to gdflatbuffers soonish I want to fix up some basics.

Where is the name defined in source?

I'm new to godot, this is the first plugin i'm installing, so I'm not sure how to advise re: getting started.

The plugin is now loading after I changed:

linux.template_debug..x86_64
to
linux.debug.x86_64

in the gdextension config file.

Definitely a bug in my CMake for sure.

I've re-worked the way the the gdextension gets its name, and fixed this issue.
