PML Application Control Object

The PML Add-in control object is a user-defined object type used to configure and control an add-in. A Global variable of the same name is created automatically by the system at module startup.

For example: !!myAddinController = object MYADDINCONTROLLER().

Methods on this object can be executed at ModuleStartup and at the other application events.

For example:

# Description: Add-in application definition

# --------------------------------------------------------

name: MYADDIN

CONTROL: MYADDINCONTROL

title: MYADDIN

showOnMenu: TRUE

modulestartup: !!MYADDINCONTROL.moduleStartup()

startUp: !!MYADDINCONTROL.startup()

SwitchModify: EQUI :!!MYADDINCONTROL.startup('EQUI')

Note:
It is important to avoid intensive and time consuming operations in the control object constructor or in the modulestartup callback because this could cause performance problems when the module starts.

Note:
Make sure that your defined control object has been added to the PML index to avoid problems when the module starts.
