Plug-in?

Hi,
I have to give to the user the opportunity to load
new categories in a pop-up menu.

At present time the categories are only 2: software and hardware.
When the user selects software from the pop-up menu, I show the subview
"software" which has some text-fields like name, release date, author,
license...
When the user selects hardware from the pop-up menu, I show the subview
"hardware" which has different fields like name, kind, producer, model...

Since the category list could change day after day including new categories
with new text-fields, I thought to give the user, time after time, a new nib
file containing all the category-subviews containing each one its own
fields.
This would avoid he reinstall my software all the time. But suddently I
realized that my application should need the "code" to manage those new
subviews and text-fields. For example, I need to make some control before
accepting the values entered by the user. So more than the nib file I should
give the user something else.

Do I need to give the user a sort of plug-in?
If so, how to do that?


Best Regards
