This is a plugin unloader that plugin developers might find useful. It allows you to unload plugins while in Max, instead of having to close Max, remove the plugin and start Max again.

This is an incredible piece of work, it is a .NET framework for the whole Max SDK. This means that anything that can be done in C++ can alternatively be acomplished using any of the common runtime languages (eg. C#).

The benefits of writing plugins or scripts this way are:

- The obvious benefits of using a managed language: garbage collection prevents serious memory bugs, ability to use reflection, integration with the rest of the .NET framework, much better IDE support, etc.

- Plugins are forward-backward compatible: the interface assembly they link to doesn't depend on MaxDotNet implementation

- Plugins compiled are x86/x64/platform neutral: compiled IL code is platform neutral by definition

- Built-in SDK documentation: All of the Max interfaces used contain full documentation extracted from the Max docs

- Unit testing and remote execution: Included remoting framework, along with .NET's great support for remoting allows all plugins and Max scenes to be unit-tested straight from the IDE, providing a very agile approach to tools development

- Dynamic loading/unloading of assemblies inside Max: this means you don't have to restart Max once changes are made to a plugin. MaxDotNet simply re-loads the modified assemblies with the current scene so that testing/development can be continued without interruption.
