Re-Use implications of plug-in instances
Saturday, October 20, 2007 at 05:44PM One of the things you may not realize about CRM plug-ins is the fact that an instance of them can be re-used to serve multiple platform requests. This means when you develop them you need to take care that you don't get unexpected results because a variable or something else was not reset as you thought it would be.
I added that to the FAQ for Plug-ins and included a few examples of how you might be surprised if you don't plan ahead - read the details here. If you think of some other ways you can get in trouble , drop me a note and I will update the FAQ.
The new plug-in interface is super simple and if you follow a few good practices you can keep yourself out of trouble pretty easily.
