Support for Java Analysis Studio Extension Plugins The Plugin class is used to extend the functionality of Java Analysis Studio with experiment, group, or personal extensions. Java Analysis Studio plugins extend the Plugin class in a similar manner that web applets extend Applet. Plugins are a little more flexible than web applets however, since plugins can add new items to the Java Analysis Studio menu, create windows in the main body of the application, and interact with event data.

A typical use for a plugin would be to provide an experient specific event display within the body of the Java Analysis Studio application.

The current plugin functionality is fairly limited, more will be added in later releases. Send suggestions for improve functionality to jas-feedback@sld-mail.slac.stanford.edu

Note: Most of the methods of Plugin require a context, and therefore should not be called before the Plugin is initialized (i.e. its init() method is called).
