• StepLoader.findStepPluginWithID(id) --> PluginRegistry.findPluginWithId(StepPluginType.getInstance()class, id)
• StepPlugin --> PluginInterface
• StepLoader.getStepClass(StepPlugin) --> (StepMetaInterface)PluginRegistry.loadClass(PluginInterface, PluginClassType.MainClassType)
• StepLoader.getStepPluginID(StepMetaInterface) --> PluginRegistry.getPluginId(StepPluginType..getInstance()class, StepMetaInterface)
• init() --> taken over by PluginRegistry.init() and StepPluginType.searchPlugins()
• getPluginPackages() --> is now available as getPluginPackages(PluginTypeInterface) returning a list of package names.
• getPluginInformation() --> getPluginInformation(PluginTypeInterface) returning a RowBuffer object

...

• JobEntryLoader.findJobEntriesWithDescription(String) --> PluginRegistry.findPluginWithName(StepPluginType..getInstance()class, description)
• JobPlugin (also with a wrong name!) --> PluginInterface
• JobEntryLoader.getStepClass(StepPlugin) --> (JobEntryInterface)PluginRegistry.loadClass(PluginInterface, PluginClassType.MainClassType)
• JobEntryLoader.getJobEntryPluginID(JobEntryInterface) --> PluginRegistry.getPluginId(JobEntryPluginType.getInstance(), JobEntryInterface)
• init(): taken over by PluginRegistry.init() and JobEntryPluginType.searchPlugins()
• getPluginPackages(): is now available as getPluginPackages(PluginTypeInterface) returning a list of package names.
• getPluginInformation(): getPluginInformation(PluginTypeInterface) returning a RowBuffer object

...

• getDatabaseTypeDescLong() --> You need to look up the PluginInterface for this database in the plugin registry with the pluginId.  ->
  PluginInterface plugin = registry.getPlugin(DatabasePluginType.class, pluginId); 
  With this you can determine the name (previous long description)
• getDatabaseTypeDesc() --> This is in fact the plugin ID of the DatabaseMeta object.

...

PluginInterface plugin = PluginRegistry.getInstance().getPlugin(JobEntryPluginType..getInstance()class, typeId);

Step plugin example

...

repository = (Repository)PluginRegistry.getInstance().loadClass(RepositoryPluginType..getInstance()class, repositoryMeta.getId(), PluginClassType.MainClassType);
repository.init(repositoryMeta);
