Client plugins
You can add custom functionality to Xima® Formcycle by uploading custom plugins written in Java on the system plugin management page.
A Xima® Formcycle plugin must meet these requirements:
- The plugin must be bundled as a Java-Resource-Bundle (JAR file).
- The JAR file must contain at least one implementation of one of the following interfaces:
A thorough introduction on how to write your own plugins is also available.
Uploading a plugin bundle
Click the browse button and select the JAR file to upload the plugin. The field bundle name will show the file name of the uploaded file.
Finally, click save or the plugin will not be registered.
While saving, the system will scan the JAR file for implementations of one of the above-mentioned interfaces that will then be available.
