There are two versions of deformers; one is simple, and the other adds ARAP modifiation.

• Get devkit at https://www.autodesk.com/developmaya
• Mac OS X: Look at the included Xcode project file
• Windows: Look at the included VisualStudio project file. DO NOT turn on AVX instructions.
• Other: Look at the included Makefile
• on some systems, specifying the compiler option -DEIGEN_DONT_VECTORIZE may be necessary to avoid compilation errors (thank giordi91 for this information)

• put the plugins in "MAYA_PLUG_IN_PATH"
• put the UI python script in "MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH"
• open script editor in Maya and type in the following Python command:

import ui_cageDeformer as ui
ui.UI_CageDeformer()

The ARAP version works only on "clean" meshes. First apply "Cleanup" from "Mesh" menu to remove zero faces and edges, non-manifold geometry, etc.
