IUpdater throwing error message for users without the plug in

[mfalkowski]

I have an IUpdater that is causing a warning on other machines in a Worksharing or Cloud environment.  Originally, I registered the updater onStart-Up and unregistered it onShut-Down.  I realize, in the process of synchronizing, I'm sending this registered IUpdater to all other machines who don't have the plug in installed - hence the warning.

I figured if I simply unregistered it at onSynchronizing and registered it again onSynchronized, I would keep it out of the central model, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

I have two methods..

• RegisterUpdater()
• UnregisterUpdater()

I use them in the following events...

• onstartup - RegisterUpdater()
• onDocumentOpened - RegisterUpdater()
• onDocumentSynchronizing - UnregisterUpdater()
• onDocumentSynchronized - RegisterUpdater()
• onDocumentClosing - UnregisterUpdater()
• onShutDown - UnregisterUpdater()

the onStartup call is probably unnecessary, but I thought unregistering it prior to synchronizing would keep it out of the central model, but that isn't the case.

Any advice?

Yes. We talked about that just last week:
