Hello, I have a window based java application. I like to add a new
feature, base on a plug-in concept. The ability to add new
functionality as a plugin to the existing core application is the goal.
Anybody know of any general best practice? I'm open for any
sugggestion. Thanks so much in advance. My email is esoza3@yahoo.com.

Regards,
Bobo

Take a look at beanshell (http://www.beanshell.org/), it pretty much
gives you the functionality you're looking for.

You could also have a look at the chapter in the book
"java server based programming" by Ted Neward, it contains a chapter
about creating plugins in java. It might give you some answers.
