(5) Notes on executing the template plugin creation command

The following provides the notes on executing the command:

• If multiple commands are executed at the same time, operation is unpredictable.

• If a directory having the same name as the plugin ID specified in the plugin information property file exists under Navigation-Platform-for-Developers-installation-directory\pluginSDK\plugin, an overwrite confirmation message appears. Specify as follows in response to the confirmation message.

  • To overwrite the existing directory:

    Specify Y or y.

  • Not to overwrite the existing directory:

    Specify N or n. Processing is canceled.

    In this case, change the plugin ID specified in the plugin information property file, and then re-execute the command.

• To execute the template plugin creation command, you must first open the command prompt by selecting Run as administrator. If this condition is not satisfied, operation is unpredictable.
