Converting JRiver Sample VB Plugin into VB.NET

Part 2 Of above Tutorial Converting VB.NET plugin to C#

Creating A Library Field Using VB

Information regarding installing your plugins

The following maybe useful to those writing plugins, or buddin coders!

Sample C# Interface Plugin - Broadcasting Playing Now for MSN

How to check for Mouse overs In VB

List Box ordering code in VB

Accessing "What I'm Listening To" with MSN Messenger (Links to Microsoft.com)

You can also test bits of code out in my .NET Script Plugin Here

Sample C# Scripts (They are using the same interface so code may be useful for plugins)

Out of Proc Code snippets
This needs writing up, but if your trying to get Out Of Proc code working it's quite useful
A little bit of extra info on out of proc

Theres a lot of interesting threads in the past on this board, but
searching through them takes all day.  If you know of a good example elsewhere
on this board, please add it to this list.

you know what would be nice is if ou also created some images to go along with your text for "Topic: VB.NET Template for an Interface Plugin" from start to finish on creating a plug-in with all install programs.

i know for one i would use it, since i will be forced to use .net in the future.

the one problem i have is how to compile a install setup with what ever files i need.

using Inno Setup Compiler and maybe a "hello world" type plug-in

or even a busybox converted project.

and if J. river wishes to host this as a web page this would help other users (including me) to work with .net and MC

Cheers for the sugestion King.  I will consider it once i've got
the instructions complete.

Reason the instructions are slow going up is I'm back at my folks home
without my development machine.

Quick answer to your question. 
With the script i've supplied everything that is placed into the build
directory is installed with the plugin.
 Innosetup grabs everything from that directory, maintaining the directory structure,
so if you put a directory in build called config files
\Build\Config Files

The output will be
Plugin Folder\Config Files

If you wish to add specific files to go to specific places
such as file to go in Windows\System32
Inno can do this for you, but it's probably best if you read the help file,
or run through the wizard to create a new script just to get an idea
of how it works.  It's pretty easy but if anyone needs more help
I can probably give a pointer.

Hi Mr ChriZ...

Just thought you should know, in your     C# Template for an Interface Plugin post, your download link is bad.  I'm getting the dreaded "404-Not Found" on that link.

Take care,
Andrew

Can you please post the C# Template again?  It must have expired from uupit.
Thanks,
Jeff

Cheers King, although I actually asked Bob to host it on JRiver
server after that post, and he's responded, I just need to send him another
response.  :)

Ditto for me if anyone wants to add their stuff to the mcplugins Sourceforge page, but glad to see that JR will host it for you.
