Hi Dallas,
I'd like to install a datasource plugin for all users. Is there a method by which all users would automatically have this plugin enabled when they run IDV instead of each user installing it by hand? I tried specifying a SITEPATH and creating a SITEPATH/idv.rbi file with:This should work. Your users will need to set their sitepath which they can do in the preferences gui.<!-- Where to look for plugins --> <resources name="idv.resource.plugins" loadmore="true"> <resource location="%SITEPATH%/plugins"/> </resources> But the user still needs to "install" the plugin. Thanks for any help.
Note - this resource defines a directory that the IDV scans for files so it will only work if SITEPATH is a file system directory
not a web directory (since the IDV cannot scan a web based directory). -Jeff
