Hello,
I am making a plug-in for the Mielstone Xprotect Smart Client. I know what directories to make and where for the 64 bit solution. I also know where to put the dll’s I need.
Do you have any installer wizard or advice in making a plugin installer?
How do you recommend you tell the difference between a 64 bit and 32 bit installation? Do you think anyone is stll using the 32 bit version?
Do you provide any testing service for plug-ins?
Thanks.
No, there is no installer framework or wizard. All the good advise is in MIP Documentation - Plug-in Integration > Getting Started > Plug-in Development and I can recommed doing a thorough read on that page.
What I suggest is that you when making an installer copies your dll and plugin.def to both [c:\Program](file:c:/Program) Files\Milestone\MIPPlugins (on 64 bit OS this is for 64 bit applications like the 64 bit Smart Client) and to [c:\Program](file:c:/Program) Files (x86)\Milestone\MIPPlugins, following this suggested the plugin will run no matter if the user starts 32 or 64 bit Smart Client.
