Mono.Addins Description

Mono.Addins is a generic framework for creating extensible applications and for creating libraries which extend those applications. This framework has been designed to be useful for a wide range of applications: from simple applications with small extensibility needs, to complex applications which need support for large add-in structures. Give Mono.Addins a try to see what it's really capable of! Main features: upports descriptions of add-ins using custom attributes (for simple and common extensions) or using XML manifests (for more complex extensibility needs). Supports extension metadata and data-only extensions. Support for add-in hierarchies, where add-ins may depend on other add-ins. Lazy loading of add-ins. Dynamic activation / deactivation of add-ins at run time. Allows sharing add-in registries between applications, and defining arbitrary add-in locations. Allows implementing extensible libraries. Supports add-in localization. Provides an API for accessing to add-in descriptions, which will allow building development and documentation tools for handling add-ins. In addition to the basic add-in engine, it provides a Setup library to be used by applications which want to offer basic add-in management features to users, such as enabling/disabling add-ins, or installing add-ins from on-line repositories.
