[QUOTE="Micropolis, post: 797629, member: 96567"] [b]Re: AW: Windows UpdateControl plugin for MediaPortal v0.5.4[/b] Hello D3ltoroxp, Some days before I'll try to make some tests with this notification bar plugin. After these experimental builds I had decide to [U]not support[/U] the current implementation model of this plugin. Let my try to explain this a little bit better: To use the interface of this plugin, a programmer must include a reference to this plugin. These "hard" dependency means, that plugins, which had this reference, cannot be used anymore, until the notification bar plugin is installed also. Reflection routines can't solve this problem. In my opinion a user must be have the chance to install plugins without dependencies to user plugins. If GetWell (or the original plugin owner) would support other interface types, I don't see any problems to support this idea and to extend my plugins. During my experimentals I think about some other interface technologies, which are more simpler. I am willing to discuss my and other ideas. Cheers, Micropolis [/QUOTE]
