Abstract

A plug-in framework is invoked within a plug-in, where the plug-in framework includes a software library configured to define, register, and configure plug-ins, where the plug-in includes a software module that extends or customizes functionality of a software application that is external to the plug-in, and where the plug-in includes a mapping name. A plug-in instance declaration is searched, by the plug-in framework, for a mapping that includes the mapping name, where the plug-in instance declaration is located within a plug-in file, and where the plug-in declaration comprises one or more mappings. When a mapping of the mapping name to the value is found, the value is returned, by the plug-in framework, to the plug-in based on the mapping. The plug-in framework also allows a plug-in provider to associate a plug-in with metadata.
