How to make a plugin
Look the contents on links below to know how to write a plugin; in case of problems post a message in the forum.
A good way to understand how a plugin it's structured it's to observe those already created,
in the VisualSVN server or
in the forum.
When your work is mature enough, remember to share the
dll library and the
documentation about the plugin's usage for the end-users, and the
sources as reference for the community and future developers.
Known issues
| to inform the developers about issues you found out use the forum: SMath forum |
SMath's development can make a plugin made by an user outdated; if this happen, use the forum to inform the developers about it.
To make a plugin actually there isn't detailed instructions about the libraries features, but this is in the works.
