Communication between plugins about pf4j-spring

[otmanel31]

I tried something like getWapper().getPluginManager in my constructor plugin. Then i tried to get for example extensions list and when i count it, i have 0 found. When i execute it in my main app, it found my extensions.

Take a look at:

• pf4j/pf4j#79

Thanks, the #79 issue is a pull approach ?
using getwrapper.getPluginmanager() is a pull approach isn't it ?
I'm able to list my plugins other plugin inside a specific plugin.
I tried something else .... I created a custom plugin (which is abstract) in my api (where are interfaces and abstract class) .... then i'm able in the main app to check the className of plugin and cast it to given Abstract class of my api and call specific method of my plugins. For example plugin1.setContextForYou() or plugin1.setListForSpecificTypeOfPlugins() ..... i think this is a push approach ?

As describe in previous comment, communication between plugin is done. For me , there are two ways :

• push approach
• pull approach
