Creating pluglets

Pluglets are written in Java™ and reside in a pluglet project.

Before you begin

Create a pluglets project. You should still be in the Java perspective before you create a pluglet.

Procedure

To create a new pluglet:

From the menu bar, click File > New > Pluglet. The New Pluglet wizard opens.
Complete the wizard.
Use the Java perspective to write the Java code for the pluglet.

What to do next

After the pluglet is created, you must register it before you can run it from the Data perspective.

See the Sample pluglets topic to learn more about the samples that are included with the product. You can learn what each sample does, then compare it to the code to learn more about how to interact with the workbench using pluglets.
