| function _paraview_plugin_debug | ( | domain | , |
| format | |||
| ) |
.md
The _paraview_plugin_debug function is provided to assist in debugging. It is controlled by the _paraview_plugin_log variable which contains a list of "domains" to debug.
If the domain is enabled for debugging, the format argument is configured and printed. It should contain @ variable expansions to replace rather than it being done outside. This helps to avoid the cost of generating large strings when debugging is disabled.

| function paraview_plugin_find_plugins | ( | output | ) |
.md
Similar to VTK modules, plugins first have to be discovered. The paraview_plugin_find_plugins function does this. The output variable is the list of discovered paraview.plugin files.

| macro _paraview_plugin_parse_args | ( | name_output | ) |
.md
The paraview.plugin file is parsed and used as arguments to a CMake function.
Example:
The supported arguments are:
NAME: (Required) The name of the plugin.DESCRIPTION: (Recommended) Short text describing what the plugin does.CONDITION: Arguments to CMake's if command which may be used to hide the plugin for certain platforms or other reasons. If the expression is false, the module is completely ignored.REQUIRES_MODULES: If the plugin is enabled, these modules will be listed as those required to build the enabled plugins. Definition at line 92 of file ParaViewPlugin.cmake.
| function paraview_plugin_scan | ( | ) |
.md
Once the paraview.plugin files have been found, they need to be scanned to determine which should be built. Generally, plugins should be scanned first in order to use the REQUIRES_MODULES list to enable them during the scan for their required modules.
PLUGIN_FILES: (Required) The list of plugin files to scan.PROVIDES_PLUGINS: (Required) This variable contains a list of the plugins to be built.ENABLE_BY_DEFAULT: (Defaults to OFF) Whether to enable plugins by default or not.HIDE_PLUGINS_FROM_CACHE: (Defaults to OFF) Whether to display options to enable and disable plugins in the cache or not.REQUIRES_MODULES: The list of modules required by the enabled plugins.

| function paraview_plugin_write_conf | ( | ) |
.md
Applications will want to consume plugin targets by discovering their locations at runtime. In order to facilitate this, ParaView supports loading a conf file which contains the locations of plugin targets' XML files. The plugins specified in that file is then
NAME: (Required) The base name of the configuration file.PLUGINS_TARGETS: (Required) The list of plugin targets to add to the configuration file.BUILD_DESTINATION: (Required) Where to place the configuration file in the build tree.INSTALL_DESTINATION: Where to install the configuration file in the install tree.
