-[[2007_Project_Half_Week#Projects | One of the projects]] at the 2007 AHM was a [[2007_AHM_Programming_Half_Week_Slicer3_Launch.ppt | review of the Slicer3 launcher]].
-A summary of the conculusions is:
-* for the shared library plugins to work the application needs to be built in shared mode (not static)
-* this means that shared library paths must be set ''before'' the application is started
-* a launcher can do this -- it is a small program that does not have shared library dependencies that sets paths and then executes the main application
-Some other nice things the launcher can do:
-* since the launcher starts quickly, it can put up a splash screen for user feedback while the main program is loading
-* the launcher can catch abnormal termination conditions of the main program and provide user feedback
