Bonjour Eric,
.....
how the plugin concept fit into the message hierarchy ?
Actually a plugin is a stack like any another one but...
Yes, but, as you say :-)
If you look at 'Plugin Settings' in 'Development' menu, you'll see
that a plugin is able to receive a lot of specific messages like
revMouseMove or revSelectionChanged: this means that these system
messages (mouseMove or selectionChanged) will be sent to the
default stack but to your plugin too(using the rev prefix) to let
you act accordingly.
When you say a lot of specific messages,
do you mean only those described in the plugin settings window,
or even others or even all rev messages available ?
Those that are listed are the only ones you can use.
Actually when I began to write plugins, I thought there were not
numerous enough but finally all messages you could need are there :-)
These messages are sent to the plugin stack when specified
(actually there are some custom properties set by the IDE in the
plugin stack that allow this: I am not going to be more precise
unless you need it :-)
Are you talking about cRevLoadInfo property ?
If yes, I understand what you mean...
Exactly :-)
But to be frank, it's never as simple as it appears...
To be also frank, I never thought it was that simple....
Nevertheless, hope this helps.
Oui, merci beaucoup !
But, I'm still stuck with the message hierarchy ?
Let me take a simple example ( it's just an example ) :
I would like to offer a Service to the Rev developper.
Have handlers like StartCoffeeMachine, StopCoffeeMachine,
PleaseAStrongCoffeeForPluginDevelopment,etc....
and then a bunch of buttons and field for preferences.
How do I state that this handlers are available everywhere ?
Not sure I understand what you want:
Are you saying you want a library put in use that will make all your
handlers available from any stack open in the IDE?
Probably I miss your point...
Otherwise,
what about writing one more of your nice tutorials ?
LOL
Thanks for the kind words but how many people would be really
interested in?
Regards,
Thierry
