Scott,

When you load a module, any Extensions in the 'appropriate' directory are 
automagically loaded.

The 'appropriate' directory is different for each module. It must be named 
<module_name>_ext (i.e. vasl_ext) and be located in the same directory that the 
module resides in. 

When you Edit an extension, you sidestep this process and can load in the 
extension directly from anywhere.

Regards,
Brent.

Okay, thanks to Rodney's help, I'm part of the way there, but I'm
still missing something.  

I run VASSAL and go into the "Edit Extension" mode, loading first the
VASL.mod and then my extension jar file.  I "Add Imported Class" and
point it at my class, and the new "OBA Flowchart" button appears in
the VASL toolbar. Pushing it brings up my OBA Flowchart dialog - SUCCESS!

So I use "Save As" to save this into a file named ObaFlowchart.mdx in
a "VASL_ext" directory sitting along side my "VASL.mod".  I quit
VASSAL, rerun it, then select "Play Module" and load up the
"VASL.mod". My button is not on the toolbar. The chat window says, " -
Extension VASL4 v5.1 loaded" but nothing about my extension.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?  I looked at the buildFile in the
extension I saved out into "VASL_ext".  It contains:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<VASSAL.build.module.ModuleExtension module="VASL" moduleVersion="5.1"
vassalVersion="2.3.2" version="0.1"/>

I expected it would say something about my class, but it doesn't.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
