Using the Java plug-in server for dynamic plug-in loading

Dynamic plug-in loading is adding or loading a new plug-in definition in the plug-in server without stopping and restarting the AR System server.

To enable dynamic plug-in loading, you must specify a reload delay before starting the plug-in server (use the Reload Delay configuration option in the AR System Administration: Plugin Server Configuration form). For more information, see Setting-plug-in-server-configuration-options.

When a delay is specified, the system automatically loads plug-ins and initiates them for all worker threads after the delay period without requiring a plug-in server restart. During the delay period, you can modify the new plug-in configuration if necessary. (If you modify it after the delay, restart the plug-in server to make your changes take effect.) For more information, see Restarting the plug-in server using the Set Server Info command.
