Plug-in User Interface Options
This book makes no pretense at being a user interface development guide. However, there are many occasions in which a plug-in will need to interact with an IDA user to request or display information. In addition to the API’s askXXX functions mentioned in Chapter 16, a few more complex functions are available for user interaction via the IDA API. For more adventurous plug-in authors, it is worth remembering that plug-ins developed for GUI versions of IDA also have full access to the user interface functions that are available in various GUI libraries (Qt or Windows Native). Through the use of these functions it is possible to use virtually any type of graphical interface element within your plug-ins.
