The GNAT Studio modules
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
GNAT Studio is organized around the concept of modules. The only part of
|
|
GNAT Studio that is mandatory is its kernel, all the other tools,
|
|
menus and features are provided in optional modules.
|
|
|
|
Although currently all modules have to be loaded at startup, some proof of
|
|
concept for dynamically loadable module was implemented, and will most likely
|
|
be part of a future version of GNAT Studio.
|
|
|
|
Every new feature you implement will be part of one or more modules. We will
|
|
go through the details of creating new modules all along this manual, starting
|
|
from a simple Hello World module to more advanced features like providing
|
|
new shell or python commands.
|
|
|
|
Generally speaking, a module provides a limited set of features, and adds
|
|
new GUI features in the GNAT Studio interface, like menus, toolbar buttons,
|
|
contextual menu entries, new windows,... As much as possible, a menu shouldn't
|
|
directly depend on any other module, only on the GNAT Studio kernel itself.
