Introduction

Defines the methods provided by the host application to create parameters.

Discussion

This is version 2 of the Pararameter Creation API. This version 2 protocol is a superset of version 1.

NOTE: A plug-in that doesn't need the new functionality found in version 2 should simply conform to the version 1 protocol. This will ensure compatibility with older plug-in hosts that might not support version 2.

Methods
