Register an Internal DLL Add-in to Add a Menu Option

You can add a right-click context menu option to various objects in the Solution Explorer and some other MineMarket explorers to run a class in a registered internal DLL add-in.

Security Note: You need the Allow addins registration settings security right in the Options user group security rights group for this activity.

Activity Steps

  1. Open the Register Addins screen.
  2. Right-click and select New from the menu.
  3. Enter the Name of the add-in application or DLL.

    This name is also used as the tooltip for the icon of the add-in on the toolbar.

  4. Set the Addin Type to Internal.
  5. To set the Path:
    1. Click the ellipsis (...).
    2. Navigate to and select the DLL file.
    3. Click Open.
  6. Select the Addin Class to be the class within the DLL to be instanced.
  7. Select the Context Callback Type to specify the type of MineMarket objects that are to trigger this DLL when right-clicked.
  8. Click OK.

    Note: MineMarket saves the changes from this screen automatically. This saving does not include any unsaved changes made on any other screens.

  9. Assign Add-in Security for a User Group.

    Note: Even if an internal application is registered for use in MineMarket, the icon is not available for users until their user group has been granted access to it.
