Title: AddIns and Automated Object
Post by: OlegReabciuc on October 03, 2003, 04:18:03 am

Hi there ,
First I just want to say Thanks to all who is working on this product .
  AddIns have a few methods which can be used only to define and intercept  it. Now is not posibile to track any changes which happened in project. For example will be nice to have some Connection Points  which help to track changes happened to different type of elements , diagram, view, packages … this will make live easy to create a good plug ins.
  Also will be nice to have a ActiveX which can be used to show diagrams not as image, as a normal functional object ,in this way  EA can be integrated in lots of IDE.
                           Kind regards.

These are implemented as ordinary methods rather than connection points, but the effect is presumably what you require.

Thanks for the suggestion, we will bear it in mind for the future.
