Sending MIDI CC to synth voices

I asked about this a few months ago but didn’t get an answer, so I figured I’d ask again now as I have time to work on my plugin project again.

Briefly, I’d like to know if there’s a “canonical” way to send additional MIDI messages besides note, velocity, pitch bend, and pressure data to synth voices in order to process them the same way that e.g. Pitch Bend is currently handled in the IPlugInstrument example. Do I have to modify the SynthVoice.h file, or is this functionality extensible in the plugin class?
