Usage
Creation of a new Plugin Design Configuration
The feature is accessible through the "System.PluginDesign.PLUGIN_DESIGN_CONFIGURATION" metaclass in UBIK Studio.
A new Plugin Design Configuration instance can be created in the Bulk Editor to define a custom plugin context.
Adding MetaClasses to the configuration
Custom metaclasses can be added to the plugin configuration using the "SYSREL_PLUGINDESIGNCONFIG_METACLASS" relation in the Relation Editor.
Exporting a C# solution for the plugin
A C# solution can be generated for the plugin via context menu action in the Class Browser (content view style):
Right-click the Plugin Configuration instance, 'Start Action → "" → Create a C# solution for a custom UBIK plugin'.
This will increase the plugin version (revision), generate the C# solution and prompt the user with a save dialog for a respective .zip archive.
Below is an example of the resulting C# solution in Visual Studio:
