Hello there,
i'm trying to make an AddOn.
Now i read a lot of threads and the help files as well. But there's alway written "create an installation file"
But thats my problem. I think the example from the SDK 'AddOnInstaller' would help me a lot but i can't load it with VisualStudio.NET 2002.
i copied the .vb file with the class "frmInstall" but i don't have the code the creation of an object of this class, so i made a 'sub main'
Sub Main()
Dim oFrmInstall As frmInstall
oFrmInstall = New frmInstall()
oFrmInstall.Show()
End Sub
but i need a 'System.Windows.Forms.Run'
if i put this bevor show() the application is running, and waiting for events, and don't show my form.
If i write it after show() the application may end during the load-event (e.g. if there are not 2 command line arg)
and after that i start the application again?
now i'm in big trouble
can you help me please?
maybe u have the AddOnInstaller Example for VS.NET 2002 or any other complete Sample for the installation file?
i don't have enougth time to learn about how to handle installshield or any other progam
thx
Norbert
Hi again,
Ok, now i built a very simple installer, that do nothing but some validation chacks and the endInstall().
that works fine and i got the addOn installed and registert.
i also can start the addOn from the addOn manager and it also makes the entries to the Menu but now my problem:
if i call the form from the menu the BO says :
"AddOn xyz is disconnected."
but i got no error.
If i look at the Add-OnManager my addon is shown as connected befor i try to call the form from the menu.
What's wrong?
