When you are ready to share your event with others, you can package it with its support files (if required) in an *.xsiaddon file for easy deployment. Along with the library or script file containing the implementation of the event handler, you may also want to include any of these files:
|
File type |
Description |
|
*.dll/so file or |
Any support files (for example, extra libraries) that your event handler may need to call while running. |
|
*.spdl file and/or *.preset file |
If you call a dialog or any custom property page in your implementation that you want to remain in the scene, you need to provide either a SPDL file with the definition and a preset file to create the dialog, or a self-installing custom property. For more information on SPDL files, see SPDL Reference. For more information on self-installing properties, see Custom Properties. |
|
*.html/htm/chm/hlp |
If you provide a help page (or site) that can help explain the usage of your event, you should package it with the rest of your event. |
|
*.jpg/gif/bmp/ico |
Any image files that may be required for your dialogs or your help pages. |
