Deploy a new plugin |
|
Use Case
| • | You want to deploy a new plugin on an existing, official installation of CC Workstation. |
Remarks
As noted in the Getting Started section, you must first ensure that the plugin has been built against the pre-built binaries that come with the ClearCanvas SDK. If you've done so, deployment is very simple:
| • | Copy your plugin and any of its dependencies (it doesn't matter if the dependencies are managed or unmanaged) into the \plugins folder. |
| • | Run the executable (i.e. ClearCanvas.Desktop.Executable.exe) and the plugin will be automatically loaded. |
You could, of course, be more sophisticated and build your own installer that detects the presence of CC Workstation and installs your plugin automatically.
If you are building against the source, your plugins will not be compatible with an official release of CC. See the Getting Started section for more information.
