This section describes the following topics:
Viewing plug-in versions
To view the version details of all plug-ins currently that are currently used by your AppStudio installation, click Plug-Ins on the main toolbar. The Plug-in Manager appears:
Plug-In file location: All plug-ins are DLL files in the plug-in folder with the other AppStudio program files. The default location is:
c:\Program Files\AppStudio\Plugins
Clearing connection parameters
When upgrading AppStudio plug-ins, or when the connection parameters have changed for an existing plug-in, you will need to clear both the self-described connection parameters as well as the values entered for those parameters.
To clear plug-in connection parameters:
- In the Plug-in Manager, select the plug-in from the list and click the Clear Connection Parameters button.
- In the Data Source Manager, reconnect to the data source for that plug-in (see Connecting to a Data Source).
All configuration settings for that data source are maintained.
Viewing connection attempts
In AppStudio, you can view the latest access attempts for each plug-in.
To view the latest attempts to connect to a plug-in:
- Click the Data Sources icon. The Data Source Manager appears.
- Select the plug-in from the list of defined plug-ins in the left column. The details about the plug-in appear:
- Look at the Last Attempt and Failed Attempt fields. The Last Attempt field shows the date and time of the last login attempt for this plug-in. The Failed Attempt field shows the number of attempts during the last login for this plug-in.
- If the value of the Failed Attempt field exceeds the value of the # of Retries field, then access to the plug-in is locked. You can unlock the plug-in by clicking the Unlock button.
