Q: Plugin API to detect entry selection

[Arun D]

As a user of KeePass I have been using it for many years. But am a complete novice in KeePass plugin development. A very basic question before I lose myself exploring details of the KeePass plugin development APIs.

Is there any KeePass plugin API that provides a callback when the user selects (clicks on) an entry? The general sense of a possible idea I would like to explore is this: a hardware device is represented by this new KeePass plugin I write. When a user selects an entry the plugin can then send entry's specific fields to the hardware.

It is possible to subscribe to an entry selection event, but I don't see how this would work together with your hardware idea. Wouldn't it make more sense to provide a (context?) menu command for sending data to the hardware?

Best regards,

Thanks for your response!

At this time I am only investigating the possibility of a portable device such that it is can be used without installing special software on the target host computer, that it is a zero configuration. Your suggestion is also a valid possiblity for me to investigate.

Best regards, -Arun.
