Introduction into writing Plugins

Preamble

This text should give you a short introduction how to write Plugins for COD4Manager. It will explain functions and give examples of using them.

 

Tools

COD4Manager is written in C# (.NET 3.5), using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Professional. All examples will be made with this software.

 

References

To use everything COD4Manager provides you, you'll need to add references to the following Libraries:

• Plugin.dll
  
• PluginSettings.dll
• Business.dll
• GlobalInterfaces.dll
  

Plugin and PluginSettings are specialized UserControls. You need them to inherit your own Plugins from them. Business and GlobalInterfaces are providing properties and methods to work with.
