Extending the Processor editor

To create a Processor editor object, technical developers must define the object in a .xml file, and then register the object in the Palette Registry as a plug-in extension. The object will then be displayed in Palette view of the Processor Editor, and can then be dragged into the Processor editor.

Figure 1 shows the process that is required to enable a new Processor editor object to be used in the Processor editor.
