Hello,

I recommend You to take a look to existing RC settings code.

On the configuration part, You could include the configuration file and simply use the variables in RC configuration.

In path/to/myexternalconfig.php $CONF = array(); $CONF['database_type'] = 'mysql'; $CONF['database_user'] = 'roundcube'; $CONF['database_pass'] = 'pass'; $CONF['database_db'] = 'roundcubemail'; $CONF['database_host'] = 'localhost';

In config/db.inc.php: require_once('path/to/myexternalconfig.php')

rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] = sprintf('%s://%s:%s@%s/%s', $CONF['database_type'], $CONF['database_user'], $CONF['database_pass'], $CONF['database_host'], $CONF['database_db']);

If external configuration file is not in PHP You could use *NIX commands like cat, grep, awk, cut (assuming You use *NIX like OS) for processing data via PHP system() function or You could parse the configuration file using PHP.

Hello,

I am new to this forum and am working on creating a plugin.

Now I am looking for information or a sample to the next in my plugin to be applied.

The plugin comes in 'setting' and has two windows.

• In the left panel, the three sub components of the plugin
• In the right pane should fill the window of the left pane selected item.

Another question is whether it is possible to configure on a easy way to use parts of a configfile of another program (the same building as the rc config file) to read.

example

$CONF['database_type'] = 'mysql'; $CONF['database_host'] = 'localhost';

Regards, Jan Kruis
