Launch an addin from other addin

Hi!
Is there any way for launch an addin from other addin, for example clicking a button?

Greetings!

There are ways to simulate a click, but that is pretty dirty and error prone.
If you know which add-in, and you know the function to call then you could do it directly (which would be a better way)

Even if you don't have the source code of the add-in you can still "sort of" reverse engineer from the dll to figure out what you need to know and call that function.
