Object Oriented Programming - Plug-in architecture

[dsavir]

Hi,

Here are the slides of my presentation on plug-in architecture. A video of the presentation (in Hebrew) can be found here:

To learn more about plug-in architecture using packed project libraries (lvlibp, PPL) look here.

To learn more about plug-in architecture using source distributions (warning: knowledge of Actor Framework recommended to understand) look here.

For an interesting (if a bit outdated) conversation on which is better, look here.

Please feel free to contact me for any questions.

Warning: If you are planning hardware-based plugins you can undergo the same process we did, and simply compile existing classes. However, if any of your planned plugins inherit from vi.lib, e.g. actors or 3D graphs, do NOT modify an existing project this way, it breaks LabVIEW paths (as Yaniv can testify...).

Thanks,

Danielle
