slluis — Thu, 19 May 2011 17:48:44 GMT

This is a minor release which includes some improvements:

Properly load add-ins when multiple versions of an add-in are installed. If there are multiple versions of an add-in installed, the engine will now load the latest version available. Older versions are automatically disabled. New api has been added which allow getting a list of the latest versions of all add-ins.
Core application add-ins (that is, add-ins which are not installed in the user's add-in install directory) can't be uninstalled, but they can now be upgraded if a new version is available in an add-in repository. The old installed version will be disabled.
Fixed some add-in unloading issues when an add-in us uninstalled.
The GTK# based add-in manager now only shows the latest version of every available add-in.
The GTK# based add-in manager now has a search option

Updated Release: Mono.Addins 0.6 (feb 25, 2011)

slluis — Fri, 25 Feb 2011 14:17:07 GMT

The 0.6 release of Mono.Addins includes many improvements, bug fixes and new features:

Add-in engine
- Add-in name and description can now be localized. There are new custom attributes for defining them, and can also be specified as xml elements in an add-in manifest instead of attributes.
- Support for custom add-in properties. It is now possible to specify arbitrary properties in add-ins, which can be queried at install time (using the Mono.Addins.Setup API) or at run-time.
- Custom extension attributes now allow specifying an extension path. In this way it is now possible to use a single custom attribute to define extensions for different extension points.
- The default add-in directory and the add-in database directory can now be customized. In previous releases, those directories were always created as a subdirectory of the main registry directory. In this release, the location can be set to any directory.
- Improved error reporting when a dependency is missing.
- Added support for specifying the type of the content of string node attributes. This information is used for documentation purposes only.
- The Cecil based reflector now uses the new Cecil/Light, which is smaller and faster
Add-in management
- Added support for enabling/disabling registered repositories.
- Added support for downloable support files, to be used for package icons, screenshots, etc.
- New and improved add-in manager for GTK#. The user interface has been completely redesigned to make it more usable. Add-in updates are more visible and easy to install. The add-in gallery is integrated in the main window, and can show custom add-in icons and preview images.
- Added new API for accessing custom add-in properties, even before installing them.
- Included information about download size.
Bug fixes:
- Allow overwriting files when installing.
- Fixed add-in unloading issues.
- Fixed crash when running in .NET 4.0
- AddinRepository.LastModified is always 01.01.1900 00:00:00
- Addin registry access/creation errors when accessed via UNC path
- Addin discovery/loading fails when running Visual Studio unit tests
- ImportAddinAssemblyAttribute can't be used multiple times
- Fix bug in GetAvailableAddin.
- Fix add-in database issue when the last add-in of a folder is deleted or upgraded
- Don't allow inheriting CustomExtension attributes. The attribute must be explicitly applied to classes to be marked as extensions.

Added new API based on generic methods and collections.
New MSBuild tasks file and target, which allows using add-in references directly in a build file (still experimental).
Reorganized the samples directory.
Many bug fixes.
