Dear all,
A new version has just been released.
The most important changes are:
  • A new interface for the plugin system (whatever that means!).
  • SyMenu now highlights in the context menu the updates availability in any SPS suite, including custom suites, through a dedicated icon and special text in the context menu.
Let's take a closer look at these two features.

Plugin startup notifications
The new plugin interface allows a plugin to be notified whenever SyMenu starts.
A more consistent implementation might have been to leverage SyMenu's native Autoexec on Start feature. However, that would have required users to enable Autoexec just to execute a plugin during startup. It seemed preferable to let the plugin itself declare its intention to run at that stage.
For those interested in the technical details, the new interface is called ISyPluginNotificationStartup and, as usual, it is exposed through SyMenu.Plugin.Resources.dll.
If you need further information, you know who to contact.

Update notifications for secondary and custom suites
This is a long-awaited feature.
SyMenu can now show update notifications not only for the main suite, but also for the secondary suite (NirSoft) and even for custom suites created by users.
When updates are available, the corresponding context menu entry is highlighted with a dedicated icon and text, making it much easier to spot pending updates.


As always, if you have questions or need additional details, feel free to ask.
