Plug-in algorithm documentation and sample code

I've read in at least one book (and heard firsthand at the SQL Server launch event) that there's a plug-in framework for adding new algorithms to Data Mining. However, the book was apparently written against a Beta version, and the location it suggests for the plug-in sample code doesn't exist in the shipping version. I haven't been able to locate any documentation about the plug-in framework in the SQL Server Books Online, and I haven't been able to find any sample code, either.

Can someone give me a few pointers

    Hi,

    This site is very good but I need to ask aquistion.

    Can I use the C# language instead of VC++ in order to create the new mining algorithm.

    Is there any example

    Thanks in advance for any help,

    Aya.

    Yes, I did install the samples. In fact, I tried on two different installations of SQL Server -- one in which I'd installed the samples with the original installation, and one in which I installed them after-the-fact. In neither case could I find any of the plug-in samples.

    You can also find the plug-in algorithm tutorial (with complete source code for a sample) here: http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/DMCommunity/Tutorials/Links_LinkRedirector.aspx id=62

    The plug-in algorithm whitepaper is available here:

    We are working on a framework/SDK for developing plug-in algorithms using managed code. We hope to make it available for download, along with sample code, in the next month or so.

    Did you explicitly install the SQL Server Samples   You have to choose advanced options during setup to get them - they are not installed by default.  If not, go to add/remove programs to run the installer again to add the samples to your installation.
