Content

This guide includes the following content:

•

Introduction: Describes the types of plug-ins that are used with LONWORKS networks, and it

describes how director applications request actions from plug-ins. Explains how the LNS Plug-in

Framework allows plug-ins to function in the .NET environment and interface with COM-based

director applications.

•

Creating and Redistributing LNS Device Plug-ins: Explains how to create an LNS device plug-in

project using the LNS Plug-in Framework Developer’s Kit, how to debug your plug-ins, and how

to create an installation project for your plug-in so that you can provide it to users.

•

How Plug-ins Work with Directors: Summarizes the life cycle of a plug-in. It describes how

plug-ins make themselves known to directors, how plug-ins let directors know what they can do,

and how directors and plug-ins interact. Provides examples of how these tasks should be

performed.

• Appendixes: Includes listings of standard plug-in commands, properties, classes, and exceptions;

a glossary that provides definitions for key terms and concepts associated with programming

plug-ins; and a demonstration of plug-in behavior using the example ACME C# plug-in that is

installed by the LNS Plug-in Framework Developer’s Kit.
