Developing SAMSON Extensions#

SAMSON has an open architecture: you can extend it with your own tools, workflows, and interfaces, then distribute them privately or publicly through SAMSON Connect.

Use this section if you want to:

  • build new SAMSON Extensions in C++
  • find the right developer guide before starting a new extension project

Note

SAMSON Extensions are modules for SAMSON, developed thanks to the SAMSON SDK, and distributed on SAMSON Connect. SAMSON Extensions are what makes SAMSON useful: without any extension, SAMSON cannot even create an atom, open a file, etc.

Developing SAMSON Extensions in C++#

Code example

Use the SAMSON C++ SDK when you want to build native extensions such as apps, editors, force fields, visualizations, or parsers.

This page is a short entry point: it helps you get to the right installation, generation, build, and distribution guide quickly.

See the SAMSON Developer Guide for the full reference.
