Humai Trader as a Pluggable Trading Platform

I’ve activated the plug-in feature of Humai Trader, that means Humai Trader can be a pluggable platform now, you may easy extend its features via plug-in modules.

For example, you write an indicator or one kind of chart as a plug-in module, then distribute it to John or someone else, then John just plugs it in Humai Trader platform following a very simple step, and can use it at once.

Thanks for the pluggable architecture of NetBeans Platform.

I’m interested by this features. Can you please explain the procedure for adding a modules ? Did this modules needs NetBeans ? Can you please add an example ? Something simple like share cost average from beginning. thanks.

The new module will be based on Humai Trader Core, which has been built on NetBeans Platform. That is, no more need another NetBeans Platfrom package.

It’s better to develop new modules using NetBeans IDE, although other IDE should also works.

I’ll add an example after I am back from vacation. You can take a look at  http://platform.netbeans.org first, there are many useful examples for writing modules in NetBeans Platform, which is similar to modules for Humai Trader.

I’m very interested in NetBeans, developing Modules for NetBeans, and Trading.

You have all my favourite topics in one.

Can’t wait to see an example Module to plug into Humai Trader.

Great! Humaitrader will be a very great program to analize stock quotes. I am sure. I’m also interested in developing modules, but of course we need some simple examples. I am not well using JAVA, but I am a coder since long time (C/C++ and others) so I’ll need some help. I did’t see any README in the source code that helps to compile the code. I tried executing “ant” but I saw some errors. Excuseme, ??I am realy newbie in java!

I coded my own indicator (in C++ for my own ‘notcomplex’ platform) and it works well by now…. I’ll code it for humaitrade :)

It would be nice if all the future plugin would be available through the update center. That would be a cool way to distribute the thing people do.

It would be nice if people could send you the plugin and you put it into the update center of the application or you have a page where people send you either the plugin or a link to their page where you can find the plugin.

The case is, it would be nice to have a central place where to find public plugins.

When’s the next release or should I just grab a copy from cvs? I’ve noticed a few spelling mistakes on the java.net page; mind if I take a pass at a few corrections?

should I just grab a copy from cvs?

which cvs? I registered with java.net just to check out empty directories. cvs and svn on sf.net are unused/empty. this is great stuff! Could somebody let me know where to find the latest code?

thx, mc

Michael you’re right. I assumed that the code was in cvs…..
