<h1 class="topictitle1">Identifying plug-ins to iSeries Navigator</h1>
<div><p>Plug-ins identify themselves to iSeries™ Navigator by supplying information
in the Windows<sup>®</sup> registry when the plug-in software is installed
on the Windows desktops of your users.</p>
<p>The registry entries specify the location of the plug-in code and identify
the classes that implement the special iSeries Navigator interfaces. You can
supply additional registry information that lets iSeries Navigator determine whether the
plug-in's function should be activated for a particular iSeries system.
For example, a plug-in may require a certain minimum release of i5/OS<sup>®</sup> ,
or it may specify that a certain product needs to be installed on the iSeries server
in order for it to function.</p>
<p>When a user clicks on an iSeries server in the iSeries Navigator hierarchy tree after
installing a plug-in, iSeries Navigator examines the iSeries server
to determine whether it is capable of supporting the new plug-in. The software
prerequisites (specified in the plug-in's registry entries) are compared against
the software installed on the iSeries server. If the plug-in's requirements
are satisfied, the new function will be displayed in the hierarchy tree. If
the requirements are not met, the plug-in's function will not appear for that iSeries server,
unless the registry file specifies otherwise.</p>
