Peter,</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=101005921-25022004><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>So
for all purposes, Interpreters, Plugins and Add-Ons are same, and it doesnt
really matter when we start creating a new component,
right?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=101005921-25022004><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

three different paradigms, say) on which a particular plugin is supposed to
work?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV><!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear Peter,</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2>When we start building a new component using
CreateNewComponent.exe, we get a choice from three options in the
ConfigureComponent.exe - Interpreter, Plugin and AddOn. The way I
understood it, the conceptual difference between an Interpreter and a
Plugin was that you could write an Interpreter for a single paradigm,
whereas a Plugin is supposed to work with all or multiple paradigms (I
am not sure, we can specify multiple paradigms and if so, can they be
comma-delimited). </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>However, when I looked at the
ConfigureComponent.exe, I realized that the "option set" of Interpreter,
Plugin or AddOn worked independently of the paradigm selection. So, now
I am a bit confused as what are the differences between these three.
Could you please answer these doubts at your convenience?</FONT></P>
