SKSE Plugin Info

Standard header for SKSE plugin info

Provides a common way for SKSE plugins to know their own name and version.

CommonLib NG provides this functionality via SKSE::PluginDeclaration but this is not a core feature of CommonLib.

CommonLib Packages

This interface is integrated into the CommonLib packages available via: SkyrimScripting/Packages

Usage

If you are using a package which integrates SKSEPluginInfo, then you can simply include the header to read the plugin info.

// ... my SKSE plugin ...

// Get the plugin name, e.g. "MyCoolPlugin"
const char* pluginName = SKSEPluginInfo::PluginName;

// Get the plugin version parts combined into a string, e.g. "1.0.0"
std::string pluginVersion = SKSEPluginInfo::VersionString.string();

And if you want some more specific access to the plugin version:

// ...

SKSE Plugin Setup

Helper headers are provided for defining these required DLL interfaces:

• SKSEPlugin_Query
• SKSEPlugin_Version (only requires for Skyrim AE 1.6+)

Here is a minimal working SKSE plugin using core CommonLib (not NG):
