Creating an extension library plugin

This page describes how you can wrap any jar library into a plugin that a jMP user can download, install and then use the contained library in his own game projects.


Creating the plugin project (in jMP):

Adding the library:

You will notice a new file "MyLibrary.xml" is created in the plugins base package and linked to in the layer.xml file. This is basically it, you can configure a version number, license file (should be placed in Module root folder) and more via the Module Properties.


After you are done, you can contribute the plugin in the jMP contribution update center.
