Creating Components?

Plugin Questions, Suggestions and Ideas

Postby duke4e » September 26th, 2006, 11:54 am

Hey,

Will there be a way to create components? Some kind of script or API?
I'd like to see (or to make) a killer playlist and albumlist...

I wouldn't mind seeing some type of com control myself. That is, if there isn't already one.
If it aint broke, fix it anyway. You may do it better.

Hi duke4e,

Welcome the Xion Community!

Yes, I plan on releasing a Component SDK.

It will be written in C++ initially, but I don't see any reason why it won't expand in the future.

The SDK is about 70% done and is basically just the framework for creating a Component Dll.

Warm regards,
Cliff :)

Hey Cliff,

Thanks for a welcome post. Will I be able to compile Component SDK with MinGW/G++ (open source C++)? How hard to code will be Component SDK? Could you post a example of some component written in Component SDK? Or at least send it to my email duke4e (at) gmail DOT com

Hi duke4e,

It might be possible to compile with g++, I havn't tried. I'm using Visual Studio 2003.

I will be releasing an Example Component within the next couple of weeks.

That sounds great! Just when I'll have some free time...
I hope that one day I'll be able to make winamp style album list & playlist but with Xions great skinning abilities... Any help whould be welcome with that kind of "big" project, so all interested developers hop onboard :)

I am willing to download various components, DSP plug ins and visualizations are my favorites. the skins are great!
I'm not a programmer, but I'd like to make my own visualizations like on WinAmp.
Kind regards to all.

aah, don't mind about my signature.
waiting...

Looks like the components have been put on hold. Too bad. I wanted a component that could show what i'm listening to in my Yahoo Status..

the SDK is available. Though I'd guess you need more than a component for that - a plugin for yahoo messenger too, unless there is a way to add some text to the yahoo status without heavy hacking.
