no generated.h file

Those header files are created at compile time by Unreal Header Tool so they don’t exist straight away. Something is going wrong during UHT’s parsing process.

generated.h files are also only required if the header file has any unreal-specific types like UCLASS, UENUM, USTRUCT etc. If the file doesn’t contain any of those, it doesn’t need the generated.h and UHT won’t create one for it.

Where have you placed the plug-in in your project folder? And did you delete all these folders before re-creating the solution file - and does the file in question have any UE-types like i mentioned above?

It is in C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_4.11\Engine\Plugins.

Yes, I think so. For example, there is no Intermediate or Binaries folders before project files generating. And the plugin “OptitrackNatNet” was also defined in the Build.cs file as shown below.
