RE: PluginReloader.dll - Never have to restart msn again
Didn't crash my msnmsgr...

Windows Version: Windows ME, 4.90.3000
Messenger Client Version: 5.0.0544
Messenger Plus! Version: 2.20.0053

Although the menu is kinda... messed up. None of the menu items do anything.

It shouldn't have any menu items... It used to before optimism_ removed them but it shouldn't any more... I will check that quickly because my ftp uploading hasn't exactly been reliable recently...

It works perfectly for me. When I installed it i removed all other plugins from the directory and put just the pluginreloader.dll in there and then placed the others in there during the 5 second reloading period and they all loaded fine.
I must remind you that the menus will not update until you reopen the conversation window but this is a limitation of plus and there is nothing that we can do about it.

I think you probably do. I believe the plugin implementation changed from .52 to .53.

MSN Version probably shouldn't matter.

(!VER) reports this for me (and optimism_ has exactly the same):
Windows Version: Windows XP, 5.01.2600
Messenger Client Version: 6.0.0602
Messenger Plus! Version: 2.20.0053

We already had something like this.

Nice work though, the other one reloaded instantly.

this aint a big plugin - it took 2 minutes to code and it only has 2 lines of functional code. It was originally designed for installers so that you dont have to restart plus, but since not all installers do this, this plugin allows you to manually reload the plugins. It uses the Messaginf function plus defined in the readme to cause plus to release the plugins and reload them 5 seconds later.

The plugin api's have changed quite a lot recently, which means this plugin is for plus! 2.20.053. If you have earlier versions of the plugin, it will not load properly, and the /xreload command will be sent to your contacts instead of reloading your plugins.

just start it?
doesnt that mean finding a shortcut to it and running another exe (sys resources) isnt it easier just to type /xreload?

i personally hate having to find shortcuts on my start menu
(probly b/c it takes forever to load).

I like everything to hand. THATS why i wrote this, not for any other reason

i think that can't work good because when you are calling something you have to terminate so it can hang in some processes
