Questions
I am playing around with RB's DADE files and I tried to make my own to
connect to Data Abstract's schema etc.
I started cloning the daADO unit and I have classes similar to the last 3
declaed in there (session, dataset and dataview), I regiestered them,
provided the implementation for a few of those methods (and left some
unimplemented) but I cannot see anything meaningful at runtime, inside the
RB designer. Specifically, when I click on File/Data I don't see anything
inside the Sesion Type combo (nor the others).
The pipelines seem to work fine with Data Abstract's datatables and and, as
a matter of fact, I can successfully see the folders and reports in my
Northwind Database (edited with the standard ADO demo).
Where can I find the documentation for writing DADE plugins and/or
tutorials?
Is there a minimalistic example somewhere I can take a look at?
Thanks!

Sounds like you are on the right track. Creating DADE plug-ins is usually a
straight forward process. Best approach is to use an existing plug-in as a
starting poing - for example daADO.pas. Then modify it for the applicable
data access classes.
There are some articles in the DADE thread of our Tech Tips that contain an
overview of the architecture.
