Hi Antoine,
so
>Installing the plugin the same way it is for Firefox (e.g. copying it
to Firefox's plugins directory) should be enough to make it work in
Chrome (it looks for plugins in Firefox's plugins directory, among
others).
it works just fine in FireFox but not in Chrome ( it appears as plugin
( extentions tab) in Firefox and is situated in plugins folder ).
FireFox puts at extension tabs - automatically if rdf ( see below ) and dll are included in xpi
so following links for developers of plugins
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Plugins
we get to
Shipping a plugin as an extension
link
and actually no other information ( on developing plugins )
so - you may notice that for beginner this looks - that in order to
start simple thing - there is no place to see. There is quite a bit of
information on extensions - and no information how example code could
be installed as a plugin
so if you know , could you please give a link on how to exactly package compiled dll so that it started to work as 'Addon'.

I use following rdf file for FireFox ( and it works fine )
<?xml version="1.0"?>
