Hi, JabRef's plugins are based on the Java Plugin Framework (http://jpf.sourceforge.net/). An explanation of how to build plugins for JabRef is available there: https://sourceforge.net/p/jabref/wiki/Getting_started_with_JabRef_plugin_development/
The way since Java 6 seems to be to use ServiceLoader (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/ServiceLoader.html). Tutorial at https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/ext/basics/spi.html I think, we should switch to that system (if we ever touch that code). WDYT?
