Developing my own plugin for UAExpert

Post by C.Thilo »

Hey there,

is there an open API to create plugins for UAExpert on my own?

I have a Server implementing a FileType Object. With just UAExpert the usage of that object is not that easy. Thats why I tought I write a file upload/download plugin?
But I would need to know the API of UAExpert to create my own plugin.

Is there such an API?

Cheers,
Thilo

Hello Thilo,

the plugin API of UaExpert is internal only, so there's no possibility of developing own plugins.

The upcoming version 1.5 of UaExpert will provide a file transfer plugin, which allows reading and writing file objects in the address space window using the context menu.

Hello,

I also would like to extend the UAExpert via plugin.
Is there still no option?

Thanks Marco

Hi,
the file object operations are available in UaExpert since 1.5 as described in previous post. The "Filetransfer-Plugin" (right click on a file object found in the address space of a server) offers two generic operations:

1) read from the file object and store content in a file on disk (Read to File...)
2) write to the file object, with content found in file on disk (Write from File...)
