The addin.def file is a simple text file containing name-value pairs that provide registration information about a JMP add-in. Here are the name-value pairs to include in the addin.def file:
Optional. The name that can be displayed in the JMP user interface wherever add-in names are displayed, instead of the unique ID. This name is displayed if no localized names are provided or when JMP is run under a language for which you did not provide a localized name. Named Add-In Name in Add-In Builder.
Optional. Allows the user-friendly name to be localized for different languages, where xx is the two-letter ISO 639-1 code for the language. If you include localized names, you should still include a language-neutral name in case JMP is running under regional settings for which you do not have a localized name. Not available in Add-In Builder.
Optional. The path to the add-in files. The Home Folder for the add-in is assumed to be the folder where addin.def is located. You need to include a setting for home only if the Home Folder is somewhere else (for example, a network shared folder). Not available in Add-In Builder.
Optional, Boolean. The default value is True (1). Determines whether this add-in is initially configured to load automatically during JMP start-up. Named Install after save in Add-In Builder.
Optional. Valid values are integers corresponding to the JMP major version that is the minimum version that the add-in supports. Named Minimum JMP Version in Add-In Builder.
Optional. Valid values are integers corresponding to the JMP major version that is the maximum version that the add-in supports. Use this setting only if there is a known incompatibility between your add-in and a specific version of JMP. You should provide a new version of the add-in for later versions of JMP. Not available in Add-In Builder.
