Hi guy's and girls,

I need some help here.

I am struggling on how to make a plugin with some handlers I have made. I find the way Livecode describes me how to do this not easy to understand https://livecode.com/how-to-create-plug ... e-8-0-ide/.

What I want to do is to have my own handlerds (routines) available to me as a plugin (or extension?) and easy to manage (script only stack?)
I also need those handlers to be protected because some of them are specialized encription routines.
E.g. like the DGH (Data Grid Helper) or NativeSoft DataTree works... ?

Can you help me to understand how to achieve this and how to add such plugins to a stack for usage?

It sounds like you would be better served by creating a library stack rather than a plugin.

Just create all the routines you wish to use in a seperate stack, e.g. mylibrary.livecode

then in any stack you wish to make these routines available add to the openStack handler If you are using a paid for version of Livecode then you can use to protect your stacks.

Thanks AndyP,

I will give it a try.

Regards,

Paul
