Make full compilation. Then, after, changing the plug-in file, remove relevant .o file and rerun 'make && make install' that will recompile the plugin again.

Yes, you can say "make plugin" and "make install-plugin", you don't need to build and install the entire common/ folder each time.

But this will take forever. Instead, say your plug-in is called foo.c, you can use 'make -C plug-ins/common foo' to build and 'make -C plug-ins/common install-foo' to install the plug-in. Unless you change the procedure registration, you don't even need to restart GIMP to test your changes.

That's a very useful advice, thanx a lot!

i tried... but it said...

==> no rule to make target `plugin` stop

in fact, i can't find the target `plugin` in the Makefile

Of course "plugin" is just a placeholder, I suggest you use the name of the plugin you want to compile.

another question: how to print out some debug message in the GIMP program?

The same way you would add debugging in any other program.
