    +An example plugin demonstrating how to keep data across functions calls and also storing data in the Rainmeter.data file for presistant access across skin reloads and even measures.

    • To create a plugin, the simplest approach is to make a copy of and rename the PluginEmpty example folder and files. Use GuidGen.exe from Visual Studio with Format 4 to generate a new GUID and add this and other appropriate changes to the .vcxproj or .csproj files. Open either SDK-CPP.sln (C++) or SDK-CS.sln (C#) in Visual Studio, add your new plugin project to the solution, develop your code in this template and build your plugin. Be sure that you use the Solution Configuration and Solution Platforms fields and build both x32 and x64 architecture release versions of your plugin .dll before you distribute it.

    C# Marshalling

    When making C# plugins you may notice references to IntPtr's and Marshal functions. Since Rainmeter is written in C++, variables are encoded differently, but don't be intimidated by them.

    An IntPtr is basically an integer that represents a pointer to some data, which is why you must deallocate data in finalize as well as recast it in every function. Also since strings are formatted differently in C++, you should pass your string to Marshal.StringToHGlobalUni before returning it in GetString or custom section variables.

    Also the MarshalAs in ExecuteBang and SectionVariable examples just makes sure that you get a C# style string or string array out of the box.

    + +

    What do the Disabled and Paused options do in a plugin?

    +

    If either are set to 1, they only affects the execution of the Update function. Rainmeter will still call the Initialize, Reload and Finalize functions.

    +

    Ideally, plugins should do the bulk of the "work" in the Update function to minimize any processing and to take advantage of what the user expects when the options (and bangs for set options) are used.

    +

    Avoid relying on the Update function to control threads if multi-threading.

    What is a "skin"?

    Skins can interact with other skins and applications using special commands, called bangs, and they can be customized by changing short lines of text, called variables. All of these things are made possible by Rainmeter's unique code language, which allows a skin to access functions and resources built into the Rainmeter application. Every skin's code is completely open, and can be tweaked, modified or even completely rewritten using any text editing software.

    How much technical skill do I need to use Rainmeter?

    If you only want to download skins from the Internet and use them as-is, then the answer is "none." Rainmeter provides a basic user interface for managing your library of skins, saving and restoring layouts, and changing basic settings such as a skin's location, transparency, and "always on top" behavior.
