 Another problem with the Plugin's is that each Plugin '''call''' (e.g. '''PP.LiquidEnthalpy(T, P, z)''') generates a units of measurement warning.
-In order to solve this problem I suggest the specification of the '''File''' attribute even for '''outer''' Plugins (as exemplified above).
-Then the simulator can check the units of measurement and number of arguments when checking the model and not only when the simulation is run.
+In order to solve this problem I suggest the specification of the '''Type''' attribute even for '''outer''' Plugins (as exemplified above).
+Then we can add new property set window where the user should register a DLL for each '''Type''' of Plugin.
+This way the simulator can check the units of measurement and number of arguments when checking the model and not only when the simulation is run.
+Besides this, the Plugin can be changed any any time using the GUI without need to change the models.

 ||Paula || '''agreed''' || because the warnings about unit checked in models cause a bad impression ||
-||Arge || '''partially agreed''' || the name '''Plugin''' is fine, but the obligation of the '''File''' specification turns the Plugins less pluggable (unless they could be overwritten) ||
