Changing plug-in name

Rhino Developer

Hello,

If I have created a c++ plug-in called say “originalname” and want to change its name to say “newname” is there any way of doing this in the code rather than having to create a new plug-in from scratch using the wizard? I have an idea as to how to go about this but would rather know before hand if it is better to not mess around in these areas.

Regards
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

If this is a C++ plug-in, just change the string value returned by your RHINO_PLUG_IN_NAME macro. For example:

RHINO_PLUG_IN_NAME( L"newname" );

Does this help?

I will try it. I thought there would be more to do than just that!
