IPlugInWrapper Interface

In This Topic

The public interface for DAML defined controls.

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public interface IPlugInWrapper

Public Interface IPlugInWrapper

Remarks

Controls defined in DAML and added to the ribbon control are not directly accessible by other clients. Instead, 3rd parties can use FrameworkApplication.GetCommandWrapper to access a limited set of functionality such as updating a command's caption at run-time.

Example

Programmatically start Edit Annotation

var plugin = FrameworkApplication.GetPlugInWrapper("esri_editing_EditVerticesText");
if (plugin.Enabled)
  ((ICommand)plugin).Execute(null);

Execute a command

IPlugInWrapper wrapper = FrameworkApplication.GetPlugInWrapper("esri_editing_ShowAttributes");
var command = wrapper as ICommand; // tool and command(Button) supports this

if ((command != null) && command.CanExecute(null))
  command.Execute(null);

Set the current tool

// use SetCurrentToolAsync
FrameworkApplication.SetCurrentToolAsync("esri_mapping_selectByRectangleTool");

// or use ICommand.Execute
ICommand cmd = FrameworkApplication.GetPlugInWrapper("esri_mapping_selectByRectangleTool") as ICommand;
if ((cmd != null) && cmd.CanExecute(null))
  cmd.Execute(null);

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8.1
