Hello Everybody,<br>I am currently using qgis0.7.9 downloaded from svn installed on FC4.<br>I need to add plugin to qgis which will display direction of wind. NorthArrow Plugin provides similar functionality. So i did make copy of that code put my
Cock.png file path in place of north_arrow in a new folder named Cock in src/plugins/. I changed the code a bit ( north_arrow to Cock , just change of name).
and addition in configure script similar o existing code.<br>Now my questions are:<br>i). Am i doing correect for adding a new plugin? Is it good way or there is scope of improvement which i think will be?<br>ii) Is it required to compile Qgis fully to make my plugin functionable . Is there any way where i can only compile new plugin code and link it dynamiclly.
<br>iii)For adding plugin menu to GUI we are using code ..<br> <br> qGisInterface_>addPluginMenu(tr("&Decoration"),myQActionPointer);<br> what does "&Decoration" signify here.<br><br><br>
