topic How to pass parameters as inputs to BaseTool or BaseCommand from my main application in ArcObjects SDK Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/arcobjects-sdk-questions/how-to-pass-parameters-as-inputs-to-basetool-or/m-p/237198#M6139 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hola/ Hi,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>I am working on ArcObjects10.1 Engine in C# stand alone application (dont have a desktop license). I have a doubt which had been haunting me from several days. How do I pass inputs from my main application to some add-ins developed using BaseTool or BaseCommand. The issue I face is my main App. is in different class and the add-ins are different class, I can only add the basetool to my application through toolbar properties and adding the registered add-ins. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>For example if I want to develop a basetool for LineofSight Analysis tool and I want to pass an ISurface object or an IRasterLayer object which I already have in my application, to LineOfSight BaseTool. How do I do it ? Is there a way to pass parameters that can be caught in the constructor of the BaseTool. As far as I know we can get the Handle to mapControl object using Hooker object, apart from that any other parameters we need out of the main application I cant get.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Currently I am developing all those functionality in a normal button ( exactly the size of baseTool button size) with in my main application class and placing it on the toolbar which I dont think is a good alternative. Suggest me if there is a way to do this please.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks and Regards,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Pavan</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 06 May 2014 11:15:53 GMT Santosh_Pavan_KumarNukala 2014-05-06T11:15:53Z How to pass parameters as inputs to BaseTool or BaseCommand from my main application https://community.esri.com/t5/arcobjects-sdk-questions/how-to-pass-parameters-as-inputs-to-basetool-or/m-p/237198#M6139 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hola/ Hi,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>I am working on ArcObjects10.1 Engine in C# stand alone application (dont have a desktop license).
