Following things are required for all FIPIS plug-ins:

  • if plug-in replaces standard Imager's plug-in, it must warn user before replacement and implement all functionality of replaced plug-in (and make back up copy of original plug-in)
  • plug-ins must follow FIPIS naming rules
  • plug-ins must contain FIPIS resource (without it they are useless)
  • plug-ins must follow specific notes found in plug-in type articles and function articles in this docs
  • ir your plug-in have settings, that can be configured by user, plug-in must export FIPISconfig function.
  • all plug-ins should have standard Windows version resource with all fields filled in! Also note, that version resouce should be in "English (United States)" language. Check plug-ins that shipped with Futuris Imager for sample of filling version resource.
