plugin cannot be call and no error message

I am running gaebo 5.0.1 on ubuntu 14.04.

I want to make a camera plugin,

so , I go to "gazebo / examples / plugins / camera " for example code (https://bitbucket.org/osrf/gazebo/src/430e66533f8810646b90d001fc9c83220ae503e9/examples/plugins/camera?at=gazebo5_5.0.1)

after compiling and execute "gazebo camera.world"

I found that libcamera_dump.so and libcamera_move.so were not be called (I 'cout' some string in constructor and update() function ,so I knew it)

and there were no error message neither.

I don't how to deal with this problem

Thanks for help

You should run out of the build directory. This will allow Gazebo to find the plugins. In gazebo/examples/plugins/camera/build run gazebo ../camera.world.

If you want Gazebo to find your custom plugins, add the paths to the .so files in the GAZEBO_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable.

Thank you, I have done with your suggestion, but it doesn't work.

And,I don't think this problem is caused by PATH issue,Because if it were,when I enter 'gazebo test.world', it would come with some error message such as "cannot find plugin" Thank you~
