<p>Hi Tobias,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I modified the files similar to what Andreas did and my plugin was constructed successfully.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Even callback feature worked.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks a lot for the help.</p>

Each plugin has its own Makefile.am and the Makefile.am of the library<br>
the plugin is located in needs also some additions.<br>
<br>
Andreas once created an example plugin in the demo-plugin branch [1].<br>
<br>
However, you don't actually need to build your plugin within the source<br>
tree (i.e. you don't have to change any existing files). You could just<br>
write your own Makefile and link the plugin to the strongSwan libraries<br>
(just make sure to add -include <path/to/strongswan/config.h> to<br>
CFLAGS). Then just copy the resulting .so file to the directory where<br>
the other plugins are installed and load it using the modular plugin<br>
load mechanism (see [2]).<br>
<br>
