Plug-in Algorithms in Managed Code

Can anyone update me on the status of the managed-code framework for plug-in algorithms? I've heard reports that it's "in the works" and "almost ready to release", and now I'm really anxious to get my hands on it!

We're still working out the delivery details for the component. Hopefully it will be available by April.

Thanks

Plug-in algorithm documentation and sample code

I've read in at least one book (and heard firsthand at the SQL Server launch event) that there's a plug-in framework for adding new algorithms to Data Mining. However, the book was apparently written against a Beta version, and the location it suggests for the plug-in sample code doesn't exist in the shipping version. I haven't been able to locate any documentation about the plug-in framework in the SQL Server Books Online, and I haven't been able to find any sample code, either.

Can someone give me a few pointers?Did you explicitly install the SQL Server Samples? You have to choose advanced options during setup to get them - they are not installed by default. If not, go to add/remove programs to run the installer again to add the samples to your installation.|||

You can also find the plug-in algorithm tutorial (with complete source code for a sample) here: http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/DMCommunity/Tutorials/Links_LinkRedirector.aspx?id=62

The plug-in algorithm whitepaper is available here:

|||Yes, I did install the samples. In fact, I tried on two different installations of SQL Server -- one in which I'd installed the samples with the original installation, and one in which I installed them after-the-fact. In neither case could I find any of the plug-in samples.|||Thank you very much!|||

Hi,

This site is very good but I need to ask aquistion.

Can I use the C# language instead of VC++ in order to create the new mining algorithm.

Is there any example?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Aya.
