Distributing our project.

Once we have our development can be deployed on a run that gvSIG
gvSIG and see if it works. Now, normally our work
not end there. Typically, we have to do to get these plugins to our
users, or even before testers to verify that everything works properly.

With version 2.0 of gvSIG we developed a packaging system that allow us to
distribute plugins so that users can install easily from the *Add-ons Manager* gvSIG (this functionality was ported
a gvSIG version 1.11.0).


.. Tip::
    You can consult the documentation on how to build packages
    plugin for gvSIG in the section of the
    *development guide*, *Generate an installation package*
    in paragraph `Generation from installation plugin`_ .

.. _`Generation from installation plugin` : http://www.gvsig.org/web/reference_catalog/lookupObject?uuid=6690cff8e74bb413aacbacd089f9a81b


The point is how to generate these packages with our plugins. Like
with the standard installation of gvSIG had a utility to assist
in the creation of our development projects, there is also a utility
to generate a plugin packages already installed on gvSIG.


As we had to activate the project creation wizard from
the preferences window, activate the same way this utility.
We'll go gvSIG preferences panel, and in *general*, *extensions*
look *"org.gvsig.installer.app.extension.creation.MakePluginPackageExtension"*, and activate the extension.
Once activated we gvSIG restart to take effect changes.

When you reboot gvSIG have the option *"Create plugin installation package"* in the menu *Tools->Development*. We will use this tool to build the package
Installation of our plugin.

The installation package can be generated directly distribute to our users
or to have them reach gvSIG to be exposed in the repository gvSIG supplements
and available to users directly from the *Add-ons Manager* through
of the URL displayed by default.

Likewise, for when it is ready the final version of gvSIG 2.0 is expected to have a mechanism
that allows to easily include these binary packages in the official distribution
gvSIG so that we can have a custom installer for our plugins
deliver to our customers.
