Is a plug-in allowed to fetch data from an external source?

Hi Gergely,

 

I have created a web-based 'EHAM Gate Planner'. The purpose of this tool is to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist Schiphol GND Controllers in [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igning gates to inbound flights, preferably [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igning real life gates when possible.

 

One of my fellow controllers suggested that inserting the [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned gate into the ES arrival list would be convenient, since he wouldn't have to read the [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned gate on the website, and then type it into ES anymore.

 

Before teaching myself C++, and trying (...) to write the necessary plug-in, I would like to know if it is possible at all to make a plug-in 'fetch' data from an external source.

 

Kind regards,

 

Martijn

The euroNAT plugin, the source code of which I have and can share with you, fetches info from outside sources and draws the North Atlantic Routes on the radar scope. If you want it please send me a private message and give me your email.

Said fellow controller here. Cheers for the info! I'll message you if it turns out the vSMR/SMRPlugin confuses me too much.

Signed,
