Which XML file refers the comment I have found? check bin/default-plugins.xml for examples. actually the properties file is like default-plugins.xml but just loaded later. something like for the AboutPlugIn com.vividsolutions.jump.workbench.ui.plugin.AboutPlugIn should do the trick. that won't work when packaged as an extension though. in that case yoiu have to give the path during installation in the extension class like context.getFeatureInstaller().addMainMenuPlugin(executable, menuPath, menuItemName, checkBox, icon, enableCheck, pos); you can check com.vividsolutions.jump.workbench.ui.plugin.FeatureInstaller.addMainMenuPlugin(...) javadoc for some explanations. or see eg. com.vividsolutions.jump.plugin.edit.AffineTransformationPlugIn.initialize(...) how it is used. ..ede -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ Jump-pilot-devel mailing list Jump-pilot-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jump-pilot-devel
Re: [JPP-Devel] Unable to load extension on OpenJump
Hi ede, thanks for your respone, after following that guide the plugin now loads! The problem I see now if that although I specifies the position of the menu, it's ignored beacuse I've followed the code and found this comment: // we silently ignore the pos argument as positions are defined in xml or not at all So, the menu entry it's set now to the first position (before File, ..., etc and I want it at the end) and on the XML I've tried something like: .xxxPlugin 10 But not works. Which XML file refers the comment I have found? P.D: By the moment we are testing on a branch because we don't have experience on this project and we are learning, moreover we don't know if all our needs are covered by OpenJump so we are invetigating their capabilities.

So if you create the jar file somewhere else then copy it into the \openjump\lib\ext folder. 6 - Afterwards start OpenJUMP. If you copy the jar file into the \ext folder and Jump is already running, then the new plugin will not be recognized - this happens only on program (OpenJUMP) start.
