Events in Extension AddIn do not work

WillemLigtendag — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 15:31:26 GMT

I created an extension Add-In for ArcMap in C# using the wizard in VS2008. The NewDocument and OpenDocument events are wired up on startup, but the assigned method is never called. Sometimes it works if I step through some statements after having set a breakpoint in the StartUp method and then press F5, but it never works without breakpoints or outside the debugger. I've attached a minimal sample application. The MessageBoxes never show up.

Hi ligtendag,

The attachement does not seem to download correctly and I can't unzip it. Probably the best this to do is to log a support incident and we can try to get to the bottom of this problem.

Trying again...

Uploading the zipped file does not work. It gets corrupted. Could I mail it somehow? My e-mail address is wligtendag AT esri.nl

I just tested it against Beta 2. The bug is still there.
