Hello,

Is there documentation for creating plugins anywhere?

Thanks

Hi Peter,

You can get the javadoc for the plugin framework from:
http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/pluginsAPI.zip

Please note that the plugin support is limited in the standalone edition, it supports plugging general plugins that do not interact with the editor and selection plugins that get the current selection, process it and the returned value replaces automatically the selection. It was developed at users requests, so feel free to discuss your needs with us.

As you probably know oXygen is availabale also as an Eclipse plugin. Eclipse itself is plugin based and I think is a good candidate for extending oXygen so you may consider using it instead of the standalone version.

Best Regards,
George
