XIDE supports a plugin system.<\/p>\n
The core of a plugin is to define a class that inherits from Xide.PluginSystem.Plugin and implements the METHOD Initialize() and PROPERTY Name. Initialize() passes you a PluginService object, with which you can communicate with XIDE. Type self:oService: in the sample to get a list of available methods of this class.
\nAfter you have built your plugin dll, simply copy it in the plugin subdirectory of the XIDE directory, and it will be loaded on the next start of XIDE.<\/p>\n
And this is a sample code by Chris Pyrgas, the author of XIDE:<\/p>\n
