load add-in to add-ins window
« on: March 25, 2014, 09:06:15 pm »
Hello!

I've searched for a shortcut to my EA add-in.
I understand the only way is to load it to the add-ins window.

How should I do it and is there a better way?

Thanks in advace!

Hi,

the most convenience way to control your addin is by using the addin-window.

To accomplish that you have to write an Active X control.

Geerts Navigator with free source code is a good example for that.

I admit, my first Addin with addin window tooks me some time. Looking in the code of the Navigator gives you some clues.

Even easier, the MyAdd-in example https://github.com/GeertBellekens/Enterprise-Architect-Add-in-Framework/tree/master/MyAddin also contains an add-in window (and is less cluttered with all the other options.
