Re: lpex user profile plugin

I would like to see an end to end example of developing a LPEX plug-in. I
experimented with writing some myself and didn't get far.

The plug-in is not proprietary and is sort of general would you consider
publishing the plugin and the steps you used to develop it?

Thanks
Bill B

I finally found the problem. The jar file was being generated as
com.rickr.lpex_1.0.0.jar. I renamed it to com.rickr.lpex.jar and now it

works. I tried removing the version in the editor but then it generated

it

with _0.0.0. Is having to rename the file normal?

Version is important to the plug-in system ... it allows Eclipse to keep
track of what plug-in version is installed (so they can be rolledback if
necessary).

Also, where is the proper place to put these plug-ins? I put it in
C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP70\plugins, but that is a folder that was

created

during the WDSCi install. But it was empty, so I used it.

Check the online help for information on an update site ... that will
give you the ability to have it automatically installed in the correct
location.
