Registering the Diagnostic Plug-In

Before a diagnostics application package can be used, you have to register it using the Register Diagnostics page. Once the registration is complete, the application package becomes a diagnostic plug-in.

To register a diagnostic plug-in:

1. Access the Register Diagnostics page by selecting Application Diagnostics, and then Register Diagnostics.

2. Add a row, if needed.

3. In the Plug-In Name edit box, enter the name of the application package, or use the lookup prompt to select it.

   Note:

   When using the lookup prompt, the system displays all application packages not only diagnostic plug-in packages. When developing custom diagnostic plug-ins, using a naming convention can be helpful to refine the search.

4. Click Save.

Note:

If you have not defined the IsPlugIn method or if it is not at the end of the class, an error message appears. The system only registers application packages containing all the required elements of a diagnostic plug-in.
