CppNorth, The Canadian C++ Conference 2024 • July 21-24, 2024 • Toronto Preview: Mike Shah: "A Study of Plugin Architectures for Supporting Extensible Software" Please Like, Follow, & Share: CppNorth, The Canadian C++ Conference https://lnkd.in/ghyai2ea Building extensible software is a goal and a often a metric of good software design. It is becoming more and more common for users to also contribute to the development of the software that they use--especially in the domains of computer graphics and gaming. Terms like 'modding' software have been around since at least the early 90s when the popular game Doom allowed for users to create their own content and modify the behavior of the program. Behind these programs there thus must be a mechanism for allowing users to 'hook' into the main program. In this talk, I will be showing several software developer kits including Autodesk Maya 3D (C++), Unity3D (C#), Unreal Engine (C++), and QT Modeler(C), and present a case study of how they are designed. At the end of the design discussion I will present how to get started building your own plugin system, and what considerations must be taken in mind (e.g. does the application or plugin manage resources, what should be exposed in the API, how do you embed a scripting language, and how should you distribute your plugins). Attendees will leave the presentation with practical knowledge on how to build software that can be extended by their user base.

Two facts: First: Jack and the Storefront team handle some of the most interesting problems at Recharge if you're into caching, synchronizing, and lots of data puzzles to solve. Second: I work with the team as Principal so we'd get to have some fun while we do the first part.
