- Check out the sample extension classes and the code comments.
- Assign a unique ID to each extension (property ExtensionId). Prefix with your company acronym to avoid conflicts with other extensions.
- Make sure your dll name ends with .BeeboxPackage.dll, such as MyCompanyExtensions.BeeboxPackage.dll
- Include dependencies with your package. But always exclude standard assemblies from Microsoft or those in the GAC. When a dependency is missing you will see an error message saying that your dll or its dependencies could not be loaded.
- When installing a new Beebox it may come with a version of the Wordbee.Beebox.Extensibility assembly having breaking changes. Make sure to recompile your package with the target Beebox's assembly version. Also read the release notes to see if there are any breaking changes.
How does the Beebox use your code?
...
- Your code must be thread-safe. Generally this is automatically the case if you do not use static variables or unmanaged resources.
- If your code uses unmanaged resources, implement the IDisposable interface.
- Keep in mind that your extension class instance may be alive for days, weeks or months. Make sure that you do not allocate memory with each call without releasing it.
