Hi there,

Yes, the plugin mechanism works on Windows, i.e. the Windows port
supports plugins. However, the only plugin in the OLSR distribution that
is currently ported to Windows and compiles on Windows is the dot_draw
plugin. (Which is pretty portable, anyway.)

The dyn_gw plugin, for example, is pretty Linux-specific and thus
requires a bit of work.

Do you want to write your own plugin or are you interested in using one
of the default OLSR plugins?
